Foreword by Warren Buffett

Develop a Highly Successful Business

How do you take a good company and transform it into one that even the billionaire Warren Buffett would buy?

Any entrepreneur will appreciate – indeed, love! – this fascinating story sharing the life lessons that Bill Child learned as he built R. C. Willey, a highly successful furniture business eventually bought out by the legendary Warren Buffett. Lessons on leadership, frugality, honesty, integrity, innovation, and customer service will inspire and motivate readers.

Bill's philosophies speak about how:

Character and work ethic carry more weight than resumes

Change is an essential ingredient for success in the retail industry

Companies that don't adapt don't last

Delegation is vital to growing a small business
