Hardback. Condition: Good. A pick-your-own-path guide to launching and sustaining a successful food or beverage business. The specialty food and beverage business is a thriving industry, and the barriers to entry are low: all you need is a recipe idea and a place to make it. It sounds simple, but launching a food or beverage company is a maze of choices and consequences. Douglas Raggio has been there, both as a food business founder and as a consultant to other successful start-ups, and he's come to learn that every choice a food founder makes has a fairly predictable outcome.   In So You Wanna: Start a Food or Beverage Business, he helps you think through the many decisions you'll make along the road from idea to success -- whether you see yourself building a following at your farmer's market, partnering with a local restaurant, or launching the next Pepsi.   This innovative guide follows four archetypal food start-ups that cover a range of business ideas and founders. Every few pages, you'll make crucial decisions about the next step to take in growing a hypothetical business. You'll have a chance to see how each choice is likely to play out before you try out anything in the real world, where the stakes are higher.   In this book, you'll see the maze of choices and outcomes that go into: Coming up with an exciting, profitable new product; Funding your start-up; Conducting market research; Pricing and producing to scale; Establishing partnerships, promotions, and branding; Deciding when to keep going -- and when to fold.   By understanding the perils and pleasures of this fast-growing industry, you will be able to approach your own business with confidence, make the decisions that feel right to you, and avoid the most common pitfalls along the way.…

Hardback. Condition: Very Good. At the age of eighty-three, Louise Ballerstedt Raggio is an icon in the struggle for women's equality. She began her life in a small Texas town without electricity or running water and has risen to become a legend in the legal profession and celebrated humanitarian. Texas Tornado recounts the personal and professional journey of this remarkable woman whose life is an inspiration for women everywhere. From her poverty-stricken childhood to her stellar academic career as valedictorian and Rockefeller scholar, Raggio recalls her early life with humor and grace. In her own indomitable voice, she tells of her years as the dedicated wife who stood by her husband through forty-seven years of marriage; her struggle to raise her three children while attending law school; her battles with depression, financial insecurity, and life-threatening health problems; and her personal suffering during the Communist witch-hunts of the McCarthy years. Through tragedy, she managed to triumph, surmounting educational barriers, family expectations, religious restrictions, and professional blockades. Texas Tornado also chronicles the incredible legal career of this firebrand crusader, from her beginnings as a law student in a male-dominated school to her demoralizing search for a job in 1950s Texas, to her success in starting her own law practice and her crusade to win property rights for women. Raggio would eventually change the law forever, removing 44 legal restrictions to give married women equality in Texas. Her victories in Texas helped pave the way for women in every state to gain equal access to credit and start their own businesses. She became a heroine for businesswomen everywhere and eventuallyearn a place as one of the nation's 30 most outstanding family lawyers. Written with the poignancy and inspiration of Sandra Day O' Connor's Lazy B., this is a memoir that will hearten a whole new generation of women to overcome barriers and become full participating citizens in their world. …
