Press Release Summary = Author and strategic business planning consultant, Dan Nichols, issues Oprah a public challenge and exposes an interesting photograph. The photograph shows Oprah in what may have been her first real business - a Lemonade Stand.
Press Release Body = Americans have a special spot in their hearts for entrepreneurs. In fact a study shows that 85% of American\'s over the age of 18 have thought about starting a business of their own. Sadly says strategic business planning consultant, Dan Nichols, fewer than 6% of our population will ever actually realize the dream of being their own boss. People talk about tragedy and I\'ve never once heard this mentioned. To me, it is tragic that people will spend a life cashing their dreams in for a paycheck.
Nichols, an entrepreneur of 20 years finds it so troubling that he actually authored a business planning system called Lemonade Stand Simple where he cleverly merged both the emotional food and the tactical business planning steps into one cohesive unit. He says, \"People rarely fail to start a business or for that matter fail once in business because they don\'t understand some 20 page management theory. They fail to take action because they stumble over their psychology. This is why traditional business planning doesn\'t work and why I decided to do something about it. Most business planning tools work like a fight manual. They provide data but paint zero context. It is no wonder so few people can\'t seem to make the plunge. I am here to change that. It is my passion and my vision.\"
So, Oprah... here is the challenge right from the mouth of the author himself.
\"Give me 10 of your audience members with a business idea and just 90 days with my coaching and business planning system and I will have them earning an income and on their way to living their \"best life\", exercising their potential and expressing themselves as entrepreneurs.
I AM WILLING TO EAT CROW!!!
If any of these 10 individuals fail to begin earning an income within 90 days of following the Lemonade Stand Simple Business Planning SystemT and my coaching/consulting session directives, I will come work for them 9 to 5 Monday thru Friday until they do. I know I am good at what I do. Helping people succeed in business is my gift to the world, it is my passion.\"
