(Newswire.net — September 18, 2013) Seattle, WA — Charlie Gilkey’s new book about running a small business has become a best-seller on Amazon. The book entitled “The Small Business Lifecycle: A Guide for Taking the Right Steps at the Right Time”, focuses on the various stages of small business development.
The book is aimed at small business owners who are trying to make their next big decision about the future of their company. Gilkey believes that growing one’s company means knowing what step needs to be taken at specific points in the company’s lifecycle. Some specific topics include finding an audience and building momentum after the first signs of success. The book is only 92 pages in length but covers all of the five stages of small business development.
The Small Business Lifecycle was well received on Amazon. One reader called it, “A must read for any small business owner.” Another reader said it was “the most practical business book i’ve read this year”. Indeed, 29 of the 32 reviews for the book are positive. Gilkey even admits that the book went to #1 in its Amazon categories before he was even ready to promote it properly.
