What Readers are Saying

From 50 to 500 represents a comprehensive, highly functional toolbox for the small business leader. The book is loaded with valuable insight, relevant business cases and motivation to learn, grow and succeed.
- Marty Strong, Navy SEAL officer (retired), CEO and Chief Strategy Officer, LGS Management Group and Leadership Author
"I was immediately engaged because I’d never seen a leadership book written specifically for small business. Before this, there was no reasonable standard for categorizing the different types of small companies. The Potential for Rapid Growth model presented in the book made a lot of sense and was very helpful in explaining how my small company differed from the local retail storefront.”
- James Mongeau, Leader, Space Age Electronics
“This book should be required reading for leaders of fast-growing startups or small companies and their teams."
- Andrew Zulauf, Executive Director, West Virginia Jobs Investment Trust
“I wish this book was around when I was building and leading my small company. There is not a thing that did not resonate with me – it put words to my experiences.”
- Sandra B. Hartog, Ph.D., Founder, Fenestra Inc.
