Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I am a bubbing entrepreneur with a business plan, enthusiastic colleagues and little money. After seven months of trying with much encouragement from others and some financial commitments, I wish I had of picked this book up at the beginning of my search for funds. I would have done a few things differently. Every time I feel down I pick myself up before going to bed by picking up the book and rereading some chapters. The next day I am again ready to tackle the challenges ahead.
This book is a must for every entrepreneur, as well as people already in business looking for a fresh approach. Unlike others, it not just tells their story, it also shows how they did it, which is rare. Most books of this type just cover the big picture stuff which anyone can read in newspapers and magazines. It is very easy to read and difficult to put down. My first reading (on a flight) was in fact two readings, as I kept going back over earlier chapters.

It's about coffee beans and crazy dreams!Sahar and Bobby Hashemi are the awe-inspiring brother and sister team who started one of the most recognised and high-profile high street brands in the United Kingdom today - Coffee Republic.Anyone Can Do It is an inspirational book which chronicles the start and evolution of a genuine success story, beginning with the siblings' first conversations (when the seed of the idea was planted), to writing the business plan, finding a name, raising money, opening the first store, taking the company public and to the present day when Coffee Republic is worth £50m with 90 outlets around the UK.But the book is no mere corporate history. It is a very personal story of dreaming, acting and succeeding. It offers a myriad of lessons for aspiring entrepreneurs and blows apart the myth that only 'special' people start successful businesses. Written in an informal style and packed with tips, advice, quotes and includes a wonderful appendix (more like a scrapbook), which includes copies of original business plans, early brainstorms and the cruel and duly ignored bank rejection letters. Real insights into real people trying to make a go of their dreams.--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
