Roger McManus, a battle-scarred, veteran entrepreneur, collaborates with Kevin Dubois one of the dry cleaning industry's brightest stars, to develop an entirely different perspective on the subject of dry cleaning business ownership. "Entrepreneurial Insanity in the Dry Cleaning Business hits home for those who 'walk the walk'," comments co-author McManus. The book challenges the owners of dry cleaning businesses to look at whether they are limiting their scope to that of a "small business" or they have expanded their view to be that of an entrepreneur. It defines the question and describes how a dry cleaner can tell the difference between small business ownership and entrepreneurism. And, surprisingly, the analysis is less about money than it is about attitude. This is all about operating systems that allow a business to run. If the systems are in place, the owner is almost irrelevant. "When the right systems are in place, the owner," Dubois quips, "can essentially manage the business from an iPhone." The book challenges the owners of dry cleaning businesses to keep their personal involvement in perspective, and to get real about the business! The ideas in this book will forever change how the motivated dry cleaner will view his or her profession - and life. The concept behind Entrepreneurial Insanity rests on that premise; love what you do, but work toward having a life and a business that are separate entities. Chances are very good that someday these two entities will want (or need) to take divergent paths. This book lays out the case for, and the strategy by which, professional dry cleaners can grow their business and regain their freedom. This book is the product of "entrepreneurial insanity." Growth is the only cure.

Of all venture capital funding, 2% goes to women. Of that, less that 0.2% goes to women of color. Why is that? And when the numbers work against you, how do you make an impact? How do you make your dreams come true? To be successful, first you must believe you can be successful. Think it. Manifest it. Repeat it, over and over. In "JULIETTE," Rechelle Balanzat invites readers into her world, chronicling the improbably odyssey of founding, building, and scaling a company without outside capital. Balanzat shared her process and how following her dreams helped her to find herself. "JULIETTE" explores some of the obstacles entrepreneurs face and shares a retrospective on a founder and her company's journey so far, as well as lessons to empower other entrepreneurs. While one person may not be able to bring about systemic changes they can change themselves, and show the system why change is for the better.
