Big Fish, Little Fish: How to start small to build a £million business that will run without you

Only after setting out on eight abortive business journeys did entrepreneur Steve Abel have his “lightbulb moment” and develop his first really successful business idea. In a career that started with this vicar’s son selling adult magazines behind the bike sheds, Steve tells how hard work and a series of Del Boy adventures led to the creation of P4D, his courier business harnessing the power of the internet and group buying. This honest, open book tells the story of Steve’s highs and lows as he constantly sought that ideal business, one that would deliver him genuine success. He explains how his suburban upbringing regularly challenged his entrepreneurial zeal. And he shares his tips on how to stay focused on success, when there are plenty of other diversions in your path. Tested in the real world, this book is full of advice about what it really takes to be successful in business.
