Layman J: Forward Thinking for Future
Entrepreneurs

Forward Thinking for Future Entrepreneurs

The Consulting Business Series

Should you start a business of your own - and is consulting the right one?
Most people who want to work for themselves never get past the first question. They know they have the skills. What they do not have is a straight answer about whether the leap is worth taking, what it costs, and what the first year actually looks like when the salary stops.
This book answers that question before it answers any other.
Written for the technically capable and commercially uncertain, it walks through the decisions a first-time consultant faces in the order they actually arrive. Whether independent consulting suits how you want to work. How to structure and register the business so you are not unpicking it two years later. What it takes to find the first client, and the second. How to price work when you have no track record to point at. And what separates the consultants who last from the ones who quietly go back to a salary.
The 2026 edition adds what the earlier guides could not cover. Artificial intelligence and offshore delivery have changed what a small consultancy can credibly offer and what clients now expect it to know. Four new chapters cover where AI and automation genuinely fit inside a consulting practice, when offshore delivery makes sense and when it does not, why your HR systems break before your sales systems do, and the compliance requirements that catch new firms out.
Written by an operator, not a career author. Srikanth Merianda has spent close to three decades building and running technology consulting and staffing businesses on both sides of the offshore model. The advice here is what he would tell someone sitting across a table asking whether to do this.
If you are weighing up starting a business, this will tell you what you are actually signing up for - including, if it applies, that now is not the moment.

How to Start and Run IT Consultancy Business

Magic is a state of mind and having the right mindset is magic. So many stay-at-home moms go through the motions in their every days lives, never daring to chase their dreams or really ever taking the time to discover what their dreams are. Maybe they don't see the opportunity or maybe no-one has ever old them, "It's yours. Go get it!" 

In More Than Mom, Heather takes us down her path from being a stay-at-home mom to realizing her dream to be an entrepreneur and going for it. She shares the processes she has created over the years and shares them so you too can realize your dream and make it happen.

From Stay-at-Home Mom to Entrepreneur

More Than Mom

A novel framework for how entrepreneurs can use Bayesian reasoning to make decisions. This edited volume introduces and explores the concept of Bayesian entrepreneurship, a novel framework for understanding entrepreneurial decision-making under uncertainty. It brings together contributions from leading scholars to examine how entrepreneurs form beliefs about opportunities, learn through experimentation, and make strategic decisions. The Bayesian approach emphasizes the critical interaction between an entrepreneur’s prior beliefs and their capacity for learning and experimentation to update those beliefs. This dynamic process allows entrepreneurs to formulate and test theories about value creation and capture, attract resources and capabilities, and implement effective entrepreneurial strategies. The volume is organized around four key themes: <ul><li>the foundations and distinguishing features of Bayesian entrepreneurship </li><li>how entrepreneurs form and update prior beliefs in entrepreneurial decision-making</li><li>the role of experimentation and learning in entrepreneurial strategy</li><li>applications to entrepreneurship education and practice</li></ul> Bayesian Entrepreneurship offers both theoretical contributions advancing our understanding of entrepreneurial decision-making and practical insights for entrepreneurs and educators.

Getting Your SHIP Together

Every entrepreneur is building a ship. The question is whether yours is seaworthy.

EntrepreneurSHIP is a practical, visual guide to building a business, one plank at a time. Through short lessons, simple frameworks, personal stories, and hand-drawn stick figures, Ryan Foland breaks down the realities of entrepreneurship into ideas you can understand and put to work.

You'll learn how to communicate your idea clearly and make decisions without waiting for certainty. You'll explore how to choose the right people, sell and price what you offer, and protect what matters. And you'll learn how to work at a sustainable pace and keep moving when things go wrong.

This isn't a promise of a perfect formula or overnight success. It's a collection of practical lessons learned through building, failing, adjusting, and continuing forward. You don't need a massive team, a huge budget, or even the perfect idea to begin. You need a place to start and the willingness to take the next step.

Whether you're starting your first business, growing a side hustle, or already somewhere out at sea, EntrepreneurSHIP will help you get your startup shipshape. Because what you build doesn't need to be perfect. 

It needs to be seaworthy: able to stay afloat, move forward, and navigate toward your destination, even when the storms come.

How to Write a Business Plan

How most investing decisions differ from what the data say works—and how replacing myth with measurement can improve outcomes. The Accidental Venture Capitalist examines how early-stage investment decisions are actually made—and why so many of them diverge from what the evidence says should work. Written by an academic-turned-venture capitalist Scott Shane, the book sits at the intersection of rigorous research and lived investing experience. Its central premise is simple but uncomfortable: in venture capital, folklore and intuition dominate practice, even though decades of empirical research offer more reliable guidance on selection, pricing, portfolio construction, and incentives. The book follows the full arc of the venture process, from fund design and deal sourcing to valuation, syndication, follow-on investing, governance, and exits. Each chapter takes a familiar maxim—“bet on the jockey,” “do more diligence,” “double down on winners”—and tests it against large-sample academic evidence and real investment outcomes. Shane’s analysis is grounded in power-law economics, behavioral decision-making, and incentive alignment. And he is transparent about mistakes as well as successes, treating his own funds as a living laboratory rather than a victory lap. The book also offers practical tools—checklists, heuristics, simple models—that translate evidence into decisions investors can actually implement.

Brutal Truths About Starting a Business

A practical roadmap for climbing the four ladders that create real, scalable wealth. Most people work hard yet never build meaningful wealth — not because they lack discipline, but because no one ever taught them the map. In THE LADDERS OF WEALTH, creator-economy pioneer Nathan Barry reveals the four ladders that determine your earning potential, from your first hourly job to scalable entrepreneurial income. With clarity and humility, Barry shows readers the skill gaps that hold them back, the transitions that matter most, and the deliberate steps required to move from trading time for money to building businesses and products that scale. Grounded in the real story of how Barry built Kit from nothing into a $50M+ annual business without investors, this book offers a practical roadmap for anyone ready to earn more, grow faster, and finally gain financial freedom. Actionable, inspiring, and deeply relevant to today’s creator-led economy, THE LADDERS OF WEALTH demystifies income growth and shows readers that making money is a skill they can master—one ladder at a time. &nbsp;
