Book excerpt: How to Salvage Millions From Your Small Business is a book by two successful auto salvage operators that tell you how to make your business be more successful. Both Men sold their auto recycling businesses to Ford Motor Company in 1999. The book shares their secrets to achieving significant success in an industry not often considered for such accomplishment. Author Ron Sturgeon says, ?This book is not theory. It is a practical ?how-to? guide by men who have actually done it and want to tell other business owners how to also.? Co-author D.L. Fitzpatrick joins Sturgeon by sharing his insights and experience learned from four generations of a family-run business. The book will help any small business person learn the fundamentals required to achieve financial rewards. Twelve chapters cover topics ranging from gathering metrics, bench marking against internal operations and competitors, how to use networking and personal electronic organizers to improve productivity, and how to work with bankers. Especially valuable are 160 practical tips, plus an action item section prodding readers to work on a plan. The book brings a fresh first-hand insight to those small business owners who want a down-to-earth, easy to read book packed with simple practical ideas.
