WEST PALM BEACH, Florida, November 9, 2003 -

"Mind Your Own BizNiche!" is more than a book. It's a movement that's powerful and growing strong! MYOB is an alternative to unemployment that focuses on passion-powered entrepreneurship as an alternative. Author Mary N. Squire says she can help anyone discover a 'personalized business niche' they can "start from the heart with PASSION & POCKET CHANGE!
   
On November 7- 9, young adults ages 18 - 30 gathered at Philadelphia's Marriott Hotel to test her theory during a 4-hour training seminar at this year's Young Entrepreneurs Conference which was inspired by Squire's book.

"She said some things that really hit home with me," said one participant. "Especially the part about creating a BizNICHE where you're successful because you're "you" and you enjoy what you do. She makes you realize how unique you are, and that your ideas are worth pursuing, so don't change, and don't quit, and don't compromise! She said, 'If you fight with yourself, somebody's going to lose!' She left us with the thought that "I" "M" the only difference between what is 'possible' and what is "Impossible!"

The event was hosted by A Million For Us and sponsored by Black Enterprise Media. Scholarships were provided to cover registration costs for qualified participants, and one individual was selected to receive a grant for $1,000 to help them pursue their BizNICHE idea.

Squire will sign copies of her book at Biz-L.I.F.T. 2003, a Business Fair and Expo for entrepreneurs in Palm Beach, Martin, St. Lucie, Indian River and Hendry Counties. Location: Crowne Plaza Hotel, 1601 Belvedere Road, WPB, FL. Time: 8:30am-4:30pm. Cost: FREE (Includes lunch for the first 200 registrants). For more information call 561-838-9027. The event is presented by The Business Loan Fund of the Palm Beaches, the City of West Palm Beach, Palm Beach County, and local sponsors.
