Title Description
When small- and medium-sized business owners first hear George Cloutier`s rules, they often think he`s a madman. His controversial rules for doing business—rules that aren`t taught at Harvard Business School—include: The best family business has one member. Weekends are for working, not playing golf or coaching. Never pay your vendors on time. Wear your control freak badge with pride. Quit denial: if your business is failing during a recession, it`s your fault. As the founder and CEO of American Management Services, Cloutier has emerged as "the leading advocate for small business" (Reuters), having spent over thirty years guiding business owners through the tough choices that line the road to profitability. He and his company have worked with more than six thousand companies, averting certain ruin for some and generating seemingly impossible growth and profitability for others.

Synopsis
George Cloutier refuses to let you blame the recession if you're having business problems. He believes that small business owners should wake up and smell the coffee, pull themselves up by their bootstraps, and take the steps they need to keep going. Cloutier gives you 13 slightly outrageous maxims, including "forget about teamwork" and "don't give raises." Cloutier's stern, no-nonsense approach to success in business has made him a media celebrity and a bestselling author--and, like them or not, his ideas work.

Publisher's Note
