The book includes a bonus chapter called Baker's Dozen 13 Marketing Musts, which is contributed by Douglas S. Kirkland whose past roles have included being President and CEO of a worldwide company, President of international divisions, and Director of Manufacturing. These Marketing Musts are universally relevant, whether a product, a service, real estate, an entity, or a person, etc., and whether a small family-owned business or a large company.
The final chapter of the book contains a 40-Day Survive to Five Campaign for increasing small business survival rates. It will not only boost new businesses, it will revitalize and breathe new life into older businesses, regardless of the type of business, or place in the small business life cycle.
Those who read Startup Savvy are assured they will be able to: steer clear of common pitfalls and mistakes; learn from real entrepreneurs about some behind the scenes aspects of starting and running a small business; save themselves considerable pain, money and precious time; and outperform and outlast their competition.
