Robbie F. Woods, entrepreneur, is a wheeler and dealer in the world of real estate and business. A darned nice guy, he does his best to overcome obstacles Fate seems to haphazardly hurl his way. Sitting in jail too often and being accused of a murder come to mind. Golfing adventures, misadventures, and former high school escapades somehow occasionally block his path, although he manages to circumvent them in one way or another. A bachelor by preference, he winds up with a family of cats and groundhogs but still longs for the stability of marriage and children. With the considerable help of his sister, Jessica, an attorney, his brother-in-law, Ken, a dentist, and his father figure, Chris, Robbie manages more often than not to successfully tackle the ineffable striving that plagues some of his dreams. He does so with aplomb, a good heart, and a round or two of golf on a summer night. That and an occasional visit to a covered bridge in Wyandot County.

Jessica F. Woods, attorney of record, experiences the romantic and professional vicissitudes, the ups and downs of life in Columbus, Ohio, where she is immersed in the beginning practice of law for a prestigious firm breaking into the central Ohio market. Young, single, and beautiful, Jessica wrestles with navigating through her past and her lawyer father's sudden death as she engages with leftover clients from her dad's estate. Along the way, her professional colleagues, family, friends, boss, new clients, and a recalcitrant Maine Coon appear sometimes timely—sometimes unexpectedly—to make life particularly interesting, if not occasionally unnerving. Jessica manages them all with humor and practicality. A Lemontini now and then serves, too, as an anodyne if professional or romantic engagements get too hectic.

Marketing often scares entrepreneurs. They've sweat buckets coming up with a valuable product or service, and now they have to sell it? Won't it sell itself? No. But, as marketing expert Bob Everett shows, marketing is just not that hard. At some level, entrepreneurs know that. They know what appeals to them and what leaves them cold. They know when a person or marketing claim is trustworthy, and they know when claims are exaggerated. Yet when it comes to marketing their own products and services to others, entrepreneurs often find it difficult to apply that same judgment and common sense. Everett to the rescue! He helps entrepreneurs position products in the market, then sell them effectively and ethically. Everett first destroys marketing myths: • Marketing is difficult and needs to be done by professionals. • Good marketing has to be expensive. • Marketing skills require extensive training • Marketing requires a great deal of creativity These myths have spawned a multi-billion dollar industry consisting of advertising agencies, public relations firms, marketing consultants, and academic marketing programs in business schools. But as this book shows, marketing is a simple process that anyone can master—and that entrepreneurs must master if they are to succeed. Fortunately, the most effective marketing programs are usually the most honest, simple, and inexpensive. The Entrepreneur's Guide to Marketing is designed to help the entrepreneur, business owner, manager, or marketing professional harness his or her own inner wisdom and personal experience to develop powerful and efficient marketing programs. Both a how-to and a how to think about it book, it takes readers through a step-by-step process of figuring things out for themselves. The result? A successful marketing program that will help entrepreneurs harvest new customers, more dollars, and overall success.
