Being an entrepreneur is hard. What do you do when all the financial indicators are telling you your business is failing and you are a failure too? You know that you do have something special to offer and can ultimately succeed, but how do you overcome the odds of entrepreneurial failure? In his first book Raiz looked at what is takes to start a new business, in this, his second book, he explains how to get past the temptation to give up on your own business. Raiz uses a case study to show entrepreneurs how to face down the ultimate business survival questions: Do I concede or do I carry on? Do I find a way to build my business or do I get a job? Do I follow my head or risk following my heart? Allon has faced the same challenges himself and has coached countless business people through their own entrepreneurial journeys. A must read for entrepreneurs and business people who are facing failure and want to give up.

96% of small businesses fail within ten years -- so what does it take to be a successful entrepreneur? How can you beat the statistics and create and grow a successful business? Allon Raiz challenges readers to find their entrepreneurial passion and to have the courage to stay focused and determined to find the path to business success. Raiz has made a business out of growing entrepreneurs and he knows that success is not about the business plan, it is about the drive of the entrepreneur. In Lose the Business Plan, Raiz shares the lessons he has learnt and seen others learn on the road to business success. Readers learn to recognise whether they have what it takes to follow this path and find the skills most needed for entrepreneurial success.
