CUPERTINO, buy CA – August 27, 2015 – Jeff Shavitz, one of the authors at Happy About and THiNKaha is proud to announce the launch of his first book, “Size Doesn't Matter: Why Small Business is Big Business!”

Jeff is having his Amazon Day on August 27th, which is a “coming out party” for his book.  His goal is not to make money from the sales but rather to quickly introduce the book to business owners, corporate executives and entrepreneurs.

Are you ready to profit NOW from the small business boom? In “Size Doesn't Matter: Why Small Business Is Big Business”, serial entrepreneur Jeff Shavitz encourages you to do so – but only if you're cut out for it. To help you make the leap (and to succeed once you do), Jeff details his personal and professional experiences, observations, challenges, and rewards in operating small businesses.  From successfully growing your business from start-up to enjoying the benefits of being cash-flow positive to ultimately planning your exit strategy, Jeff shares his advice with insight, empathy, and a healthy dose of humility. “Size Doesn't Matter” will be your coach and confidant as you reflect upon your own journey in the world of small business.

A recent Amazon review stated: Finally, a book that provides real practical advice for entrepreneurs from someone who's 'been there, done that'. Jeff Shavitz provides valuable insights to help people evaluate whether they're cut out to be a small business owner, and what it takes to be successful. We've all heard the statistics: 50% of new businesses fail in 5 years. Well, this book provides the tools to increase the odds that you're in the other 50%. As a former small business owner myself (which has since turned into a high-growth business with 145 employees), I found 'Size Doesn't Matter' to be a 'cut through the bull', no nonsense step-by-step guide to planning your small business. I also found it thoroughly entertaining at the same time, with humorous tongue-in-cheek commentary about the most frustrating, isolating, exhausting, as well as by far the most rewarding and inspiring job in the world: owning and managing your own business. The book covers how to think about starting a small business, work-life balance (ha!), starting vs. buying a business, the perils and benefits of family businesses, key factors to ensure success, goal setting, winning business models, using data to maximize your success, selling our business, and much more. Instead of dividing the book into chapters, Shavitz divides the book into times of the day as a way of illustrating that the most precious asset small business owners have is their time, and that they're always thinking about their business, whether or not they're officially on the job. I would highly recommend this book to anyone running a small business or considering doing so. Shavitz just may be the inspiration and guide all small business owners need.
