Written in Serina’s conversational and easy-to-read style, this book is full of great information for anyone, but particularly women, dreaming about starting their own business. There are tips to avoid some of the pitfalls that many of us, including Serina, have fallen into launching a business. The information in this book will give you a head start when you’re starting from zero. The learning curve is steep if entrepreneurship is new to you and this book will get you on your way. Disclosure: I received a copy of this book as a thank you for a very minor contribution to the crowd funding section. The options expressed here, however, are my own unbiased thoughts.

This book is inundated with useful tips when starting a business. From considering branding to grants to positive affirmations and encouragement by the author. All the small stuff that most people wouldn't think of but need to be considered.

I listened to the audiobook and thoroughly enjoyed the learning experience.

Reading this book you can feel the authors passion for helping women in business, which was really nice. This guide was so easy to read, and was filled with tips and tricks for how to build an idea and ultimately turning it into a business. All the information was scalable so would be beneficial for businesses of all sizes… from side hustles all th way up to bigger business. Clear and concise.
If you have an idea or are at the stage where you are ready to take some steps towards opening or starting a business, then this is the guide for you. It will take you through the things you need to know to get you started, offering resources and information along the way. The author does regularly plug her other books, online resources and courses but that totally makes sense because she’s a business woman.

The perfect guide for the early days of business. This will help you spark and grow an idea and rev you forward with action steps. Good luck with your business!
