Royal Oak, MI (PRWEB) February 28, 2005
ItÂs whirling around in your head right now. YouÂre having the same thought 85 of every 100 Americans have had. YouÂre imagining having a business of your own. Fewer than 6% of the U.S. Population over the age of 18 are self-employed. WhatÂs holding you back from being your own boss? Michigan entrepreneur, small business consultant and author T. Dan Nichols has the answer. With skill and insight, Nichols has cleverly merged both the motivation and the necessary business planning steps into his audio and workbook program, Lemonade Stand Simple A 7 Step Guide to Start, Own & Operate Your Own Small Business.
Nichols notes, ÂAmerica is ripe for this workbook and audio program. People are losing jobs, industry is leaving the state and many of our citizens are faced with what may be their only option--self-employment. With many companies reducing and eliminating benefits and no longer providing overtime, people are increasingly forced to make up the difference by starting a new business and/or taking on a second source of income. The U.S. Government actually has a term for these people--Ânecessity entrepreneursÂ.
Many people think that it takes a lot of money to start a business, but in fact Nichols can show anyone how to start a profitable business for less than $5.00. ÂWhat makes my program different is that I provide Âvirtual audio coaching with a simple question-and-answer format because data on its own has never been enough to effect change. Try flying a plane with just the flight manual -- it doesnÂt work.
After 20 years of self-employment, this 37 year old University of Michigan graduate and lifetime Royal Oak resident has seen consistently that people get stuck on the Âhead stuffÂ. It isnÂt so much an inability to add debits and credits as it is fear and trepidation over the unknown. Nichols has 20 years of self-employment experience from lawn maintenance and mobile entertainment to real estate investing and business consulting. After years of entrepreneurial pursuits, he says that learning to think different is the key to profit in a country so full of possibility. ÂSuccessful entrepreneurs evolve and get better with each experience he says. ÂIÂll hand you that quantum leap in thinking with this program. IÂll help you make it happen in your life. My gift, my talent, my purpose is helping people to see their potential.Â
So, if starting a business of your own has always been on your mind, Nichols leaves us with a challenge. Will you keep kicking tires the rest of your life or will you make something happen? ItÂs Lemonade Stand SimpleÂ.
