The Misadventures Of A New Entrepreneur: 5 Things They Won't Teach You in Business School

Product Description

You want to be an entrepreneur?Nobody tells you what happens after you quit the job, launch the business, and realize that freedom comes with a few bills attached.Entrepreneurship isn't always the serene beach photos, six-figure launches, flexible schedules, and perfect work-life balance you see on social media. Sometimes it's working late because there's no one else to do the work. Sometimes it's wondering how you're going to make payroll. Sometimes it's realizing that your business is growing faster than your systems can handle. And sometimes, despite everything you've accomplished, you wonder if you actually know what you're doing.Andrena Sawyer has been there.In The MisAdventures of a New Entrepreneur, Andrena shares the lessons she learned while building businesses, making mistakes, starting over, and figuring out what it really takes to keep going.
