Hi, My name is Paul Riecks. I am extremely passionate about helping business owners succeed in building businesses that allow them to accomplish both their professional and personal goals. I’ve been doing that for more than 25 years.

Over the years I have been facilitating regular meetings of business owners and I’ve learned a tremendous amount by listening to them advise each other on how to overcome obstacles, take advantage of opportunities and fight the isolation that plagues people “at the top.” I’ve distilled a lot of the information into my new book Running Your Own Company: An Entrepreneur’s Field Guide.

In it, you will discover the things they don’t teach you in business school about running your own company. From the best way to deal with a pot-smoking landlord to handling the curse of “founder-itis,” Running Your Own Company offers entrepreneurs insights into how to solve the unusual and unexpected problems that plague even the most carefully run businesses. This is real information and advice from real people.

Each chapter has been carefully indexed to create a day-to-day reference book entrepreneurs can use to make more informed decisions based on advice from others who have been there, done that and lived to see the results.

I invite you to view a sample chapter, take a look at the table of contents and read through the preface. The ideas contained in this book have helped hundreds of business owners succeed and I know they will help you too.

The book is available as a printed softback book, Kindle book, or an eBook.
