Business academia offers an excellent entrepreneurial foundation. Then reality sets in.
This book bridges the gap between academia and real business, to counsel by example, and to deliver timely, actionable recommendations to capitalize on opportunities, or to sidestep hidden business grenades.
Advice is best delivered by those who have successfully walked the entrepreneurial trail, but not without incurring some scars along the way. That’s us.
For the university instructor or professor, this book adds another dimension to what is being taught, and facilitates the lecturers’ ability to convey important business lessons in bite-size morsels.

About the Author
Jay J. Silverberg is a "business rebel" who has started and run a number of successful enterprises. This book is a culmination of his business adventures (and misadventures) and offers up a multitude of inestimably valuable lessons. As an entrepreneurial trainer, Jay has developed innovative programs for both the beginner and the advanced businessperson, and delivered training and mentoring to thousands of entrepreneurs, managers, and business professionals.
As a business consultant, Jay's practice ranges from start-ups to Fortune 500 firms with projects that have spanned the globe. He has also represented government trade and economic development ministries at national and international conferences.
Jay sees life as a gift, and business as a game (and vice versa). Jay can be contacted at silverberg88@gmail.com.
Bruce E. McLean is a business veteran who has extensive experience with start-ups and high growth companies. He has designed and delivered sales and operations programs throughout the U.S. and Canada.
Bruce's expertise led him to dealing with Fortune 500 companies in some of North Americas toughest boardrooms. In his diverse business activities, Bruce has pioneered advertising and technology companies, and set up a manufacturing presence in China.
Regardless of all his big picture experience, Bruce is a dedicated start-up junkie. He was part of small team that grew a one office start-up into a 500 employee company. As he is fond of saying, 'you don't have to break the rules, you just make new ones'.
His business adventures span national and international marketplaces. Bruce's exploits add entertaining and lesson-worthy escapades throughout this book.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
