By blue-collar business, I mean a business providing a specialized service requiring a trained employee and manual labor.

By listening to this book, you will learn how to: Think bigger: Don't be scared of starting or growing your existing business. Make a decision, and then make the decision right. Be a leader: You have to learn to be a leader if you want to have a great business. Leadership is a learned skill, and this book can help get you started. Start with a plan and an exit strategy, so you can live the life you want without being stuck in your business. So come on, America, let's get to work doing the dirty jobs and make a whole lot of money while we're at it.
