Grassroots to Green Shoots by Naomi-Rose Everly Johnson

Are You New to Business and Needing to Master Self Employment?

Written from first hand experience Grass Roots to Green Shoots by Naomi-Rose Everly (then Johnson) is a must read for anyone thinking of embarking on building a business or those who are already someway down the line. You’ll learn insights that will transform your business and your personal performance that no ‘success guru’s are talking about.

If you’re journey into self employment is turning out to be harder than you thought, you’re not alone. Thousands of people embark on this new adventure each year, but few land on their feet. Dreams of financial independence, flexible working and holidays are often never realised.

Despite the increasing number of ‘success’ seminars and business training available, people are returning to full time paid work in their droves with high levels of debt and their tail between their knees. Something is going horribly wrong.

In 2008 after a catalog of mistakes Naomi Johnson had to walk away from her coaching business having invested three hard years of blood, sweet and tears. At breaking point she was subletting her bedroom, sleeping on the sofa and eating baked beans for every meal, opening a can with a knife because she couldn’t afford a new tin opener. Her creditors were phoning 7 times a day and she had no peace.

In this book, Naomi deals head on with the ‘Get Rich Quick’ industry and speaks frankly about what it really takes to be successful. She reveals the secret to making the transition from work to full time entrepreneurship, how to find extra money in your monthly budget to invest in your business, and how to work out whether you business model can really meet your financial targets and get you the life you want.

Based around the wisdom she learned from her own mistakes, Naomi holds nothing back as she shares first hand from her own journey. By reading this book you will avoid many of the unspoken pitfalls successful business guru’s don’t think to tell you – things that if left unchecked will mean it’s ‘Game Over’ before you know it.

This book is perfect for the small business entrepreneurs who is starting to realise that the entrepreneur revolution may not be quite as easy as the ride it’s been billed as. If you are staring a new business, this book is a must read.

If you’ve ever wondered what makes the difference read this book. It gives insights few others are talking about. It is honest, funny and down to earth.

Naomi has taken her personal experiences and successfully extracted the right learning which she has articulated in a fun and down to earth manner. This book is a must read.

Grass Roots to Green Shoots is honest from the get-go. The reader is made fully aware of the cost of their journey into business, as well as the potential rewards. It’s refreshing to read this frankness, particularly when we are often bombarded with success stories of those who have made vast fortunes.

Naomi has a style of writing. It feels as if she is there with you sharing your journey. The book travels through the various emotions associated with owning a business, as well as the strategies that are required to deal with it head on. I especially found the 30-day rescue plan- it’s action-orientated and packed with tangible steps to take. I highly recommend this book. Avni TM
