[...] I have been reading some new-to-me blogs of late about business and entrepreneurship. Yaro Starak’s Small Business Branding is one of them. Today he posted on Steve Pavlina’s, 10 Stupid Small Business Mistakes. If you are self-employed and running your own business, you will invariably have made one or more of these mistakes — I certainly have. Steve’s article dovetails nicely with Guy Kawasaki’s recent article on The Art Of Customer Service. Guy talks about turning the customer experience into a one of perpetual positivity. [...]
Steve Pavlina’s 10 Stupid Small Business Mistakes
Steve Pavlina has published a solid article for all you new or about to be new business owners.
10 Stupid Mistakes Made by the Newly Self-Employed lists ten fundamental truths about starting your own business. I found myself nodding my head in agreement as I read through Steve’s article. I concur with all he said and I talk from experience too! If you are about to embark down the entrepreneur’s journey his article is well worth a read.
It was good to see another piece from Steve discussing business. He speciality is self development and his blog is full of great content on this subject but of course he is running a business too so it’s nice when his virtual pen brushes towards commerce orientated topics.
I recently completed a three part interview with Steve. If you would like to learn more about him start here – Steve Pavlina Interview – Part 1

As a self-employed professional I thought it was a great article. Great to see some writing about mistakes and not the “10 steps to take … ” or the “5 tips to …”

Steve Pavlina makes a lot of claims which he never backs up even when asked to do so. His claim about having earned a college degree in just three semesters instead of 12 is one such claim. Is he a liar? Not sure.
