How do I start a business on a budget?

How do I find my first 100 customers and make my first £100k?

Review

‘Nafisa is a brilliant, incisive entrepreneur and How to Make Money is the handbook for anyone with a business idea and belief. Think of it as the best short cut you could ever take’
ELLA DOLPHIN, CEO of STYLIST

‘Straight-talking but highly emotive, How To Make Money provides superbly tangible insights into laying the foundations for your own brand playbook, via ideas that bust through the bravado and bluster of standard business talk’
KATIE BARON, author of FASHION AND MUSIC

‘Nafisa Bakkar saw a gap in the market for a website that curated modest fashion for Muslim women. She had £50, no experience and no network. Her business, Amaliah, is now pushing a seven-figure turnover. How to Make Money is Bakkar’s no-nonsense guide to all the steps it took, and the moments she nearly quit, with anecdotes from entrepreneurs such as Mohammed Khalid, who had an idea for a halal chicken shop, opened Chicken Cottage by the Brick Lane mosque, and now has 140 outlets – an underappreciated British success story’

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It was thoughtfully written, and the emphasis on the ground work of a business such as tracking KPIs and improving your habits was refreshing. Seeing a variety of different success stories from either Chicken Cottage or Shazam was great as it reinforces there is no 'one way' to be good at business.I will implement what I learnt moving forwards, such as the frameworks of "30/60/90" and writing down a money goal. I also loved that although this book is for everyone regardless of gender, there is a section towards the end discussing the menstrual cycle and how women could try to work with their cycle instead of against it.

Interessante ma un po' noioso.

A.R. · 15 January 2025

L'autrice racconta la sua vita e dispensa consigli su come cominciare un business da zero. In alcuni punti è interessante, in altri si perde, divaga, e non dà regole concrete. In altre parti abbastanza noioso.

so good
