Book excerpt: Do you think you have a good idea for a business? A really good idea - something that has never been done before? Do you imagine that, if you could just get that idea of yours off the ground, it would really take off? And you just might become the next Bill Gates, Founder of Microsoft, or Michael Dell of Dell Computers or Howard Schultz, the driving force behind Starbucks? If you think you have a really good idea for a business - but you don't have enough money of your own to get it off the ground -and you think you are going to launch it with someone else's money- you are in exactly the same situation that Alan Stransman was in back in the summer of 2004. Before you do anything - read Don't Let Your Dream Business Turn Into A Nightmare - a heartbreaking and hilarious account of one man's pursuit of a dream. Don't let Your Dream Business Turn Into A Nightmare: Second Edition is a rarity - a business book that actually tells you what it is really like to start a business - if you don't have enough money of your own, have no idea how to write a business plan and have no experience running a business. In an era of "Just Do It," this book tells you what not to do - unless you want to see your dream business -and your life - turn into a nightmare.
