Event description

How to Succeed as a Small Business Owner...And Still Have a Life by Bill Collier.

Carving out the time to read this book is a great self-care action toward improving work/life balance. Let's take this step together and share ideas for nurturing ourselves as well as our businesses.

At a pub?? This isn't a typical loud bar. If you've never been to the Pub at Third Place, you're in for a treat. It's in the basement of a bookstore... a perfect setting for our discussion. The pub opens right at 4:00, so if you arrive early, feel free to hang out in the bakery upstairs or browse the bookstore.

What Amazon reviewers say about this book:

It's such a struggle to maintain balance when you're a small business owner. Bill Collier's book has practical, easy to read AND easy to apply advice that will help you "press the off button."

This book is a MUST for every small business owner who wants to see their business grow in a sustainable way!!! I can't recommend it highly enough.

    Hi Loretta, No worries about not reading the book-- I'm going to pass out copies of the highlights. The book was actually not that great, in my opinion, but there were some good points that we'll use as a launching off point for our discussion.

    I look forward to meeting you!

    If you've never been to this Pub before, please note that it's in the basement of the building, beneath the bookstore and bakery.

    Thanks! Debbie
