The One Minute Entrepreneur is my favorite Christmas present this year. I have been reading it a little bit at a time over the last couple of days and it is one of Ken Blanchard's best books, in my opinion. The book is only 130 pages and it is a quick read written in realistic fiction format. If you have ever started a business or wanted to start a business, then I recommend this book. The part of the book that I appreciated is the common theme of most growing businesses - receivables get harder to collect and overhead expenses start to grow to quickly. The advice on how to manage this and many other issues is relevant, although it is not as much deep as it is broad.
