Recommendation

Entrepreneurs must have courage, optimism and an elevated sense of mission. Sharon Rowe demonstrated these qualities when she started her tiny business Eco-Bags Products. She had little money, not much time  and no business expertise. Thanks to her hard work, daring and perseverance, Eco-Bags Products is now a multimillion-dollar enterprise. With charm and grace, Rowe explains how this all came to be in her instructive, insightful and down-to-earth manual. She describes her business processes and mind-set in detail so other entrepreneurs can gain practical wisdom and inspiration from her experience.

Take-Aways

  • Eco-Bags Products, seller of reusable shopping bags, typifies a “tiny business.” 
  • “Like a tiny house, a tiny business is built by keeping a laser focus on what you deem essential.”  
  • Entrepreneurs who run tiny businesses can have fun without pressure and can make a good living. They can be positive, upbeat and optimistic.
