Readers will be captivated by how Stroum’s meteoric early success resulted in depression rather than elation and how he overcame many intertwined emotional and business obstacles in order to lead a more fulfilled and profitable life. The book includes invaluable how-to sales, marketing, business, and personal advice.
Stroum is a great storyteller and his memoir is a testament to the power of determination, innovation, passion, and resilience. In business since 1976 and serving several clients for over 46 years, Stroum knows a thing or two about consistency and providing a worthwhile business service. He hopes his book will inspire readers to enter the arena and become entrepreneurs. But most importantly, he wants to help them avoid some of the pitfalls and painful mistakes that he’s experienced throughout his own entrepreneurial journey.
