What does it really take to become a successful entrepreneur? Just ask those who have succeeded. The Entrepreneurs: Success and Sacrifice is author Kip Marlow's inspiring new audiobook that gathers the success stories of small business owners who have transformed small businesses into highly lucrative enterprises through vision, persistence, and plenty of sweat.

Culled from Marlow's interviews on his popular radio show, "Entrepreneurs Club Radio," this highly motivational collection is an invaluable learning tool for anyone who wants to get ahead in their own business. In The Entrepreneurs, each featured business person tells his or her own story about starting and growing their businesses, while sharing the lessons they learned, the strategies they employed, and the secrets of their success.

This audiobook also expands upon the art of being flexible and changing when the market changes. In the aggregate, these candid profiles paint a vivid picture of the characteristics and habits of the visionary risk-takers who shrug off nay-sayers and embrace the unsure waters of forging new businesses.

Now more than ever, start-up companies are the key to a robust American economy. By taking cues from individuals who have overcome lean times, lack of support, and uncharted territory, others who aspire to launch or expand a small business will have the information and inspiration they need to hit the ground running and stay the course until they have turned potential into profit. With clarity, focus, and determination, anyone with a concept and some conviction can join the ranks of the entrepreneurs.
