A while ago I came across a forum post by Eric Locken looking for start-up business entrepreneurs to interview. Eric had recently completed his first book, Net Success Interviews, which probed various entrepreneurs and CEOs from some very interesting businesses, including Half.com, Slashdot and Cheapflights.co.uk. His next book was to do the same but this time for new aspiring start-up businesses rather than established success stories. I eagerly stuck my hand up to complete an interview for the book to focus on BetterEdit.com

The book has just launched and you can find the details and buy the book here - Start-Up Chat. What’s even better is that my interview was chosen for the free preview download PDF so you can read it here. Things have changed since I did the interview so I’m not 100% happy with the content (for example the first question about my mission statement needs to change since it quotes BetterEdit’s old mantra which isn’t a very good positioning statement - it’s since changed to “Get Better Grades!”), however it’s still an interesting enough read. I’d appreciate any feedback so please tell me what you think.

Of course I recommend reading the full book if you want to learn about some interesting businesses and entrepreneurs. I’ve ordered a copy of both this book and Eric’s previous book. Once I finish them I’ll have reviews up on Entrepreneur’s Journey as per usual.
