Long time entrepreneur and bed and breakfast owner John Herman, author of The Innkeeper Tales, shares ideas for successful entrepreneurship and how to not fear failure, all served up with a smile, and how they can boost your business, as my internet radio show guest on Blog Business Success; hosted live on Blog Talk Radio.
The show airs live on Thursday, April 26, at 8:00 pm Eastern Time; 5:00 pm Pacific Time.
John Herman discusses how he has operated over 20 businesses and has helped in the sale of over 200 companies. You will learn:
* Why the knowing the cost of goods sold is so crucial to success
* How to make the right business decision regardless of the money involved
* Why failure is not fatal to you and your entrepreneurial career
* How to roll with the punches that life gives you and return even stronger
John L. Herman Jr. (photo left) (known as just “Herman”) is a business failure expert. Not because he fails in business, but because he knows why businesses fail (and some households, too).
Herman owned more than 20 companies: some succeeded, some failed. One became publicly traded, sold stock for 20 times the opening price, and soon went bust. Herman then ran a brokerage firm: he consulted with over 1,000 owners of failing companies. In effect, he was a “corporate hit man” for the banks: they would convince owners to hire him, to recoup their loan money. And he did it well — because he understood what the owners were facing. In fact, he was recognized across the country as an expert witness in corporate bankruptcy cases.
Herman’s two books — The Innkeeper Tales and Hermanisms — show readers why they need to face failure head on. His books also stress that what you can learn when something fails may be worth more to you than if the venture succeeds. And Herman delivers his message with a style unlike most business books: his books entertain you while they deliver true inspiring stories of individuals overcoming failure.
