you've gotta be kidding,
By Roberto C. (Jupiter, FL) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Start Your Own Seminar Production Business (Paperback)
one of the chapters begins as follows "Every business, like everybody, needs a base- a safe, secure spot ...".
a safe? a secure spot? you've gotta be kidding. you need an office for goodness sake! are you trying to fill another page with words? if you ever ran a project of any type you don't need this book. don't waste your money like we did.
