About This Item
Fort Bragg, CA: : Cypress House, , (2019). SIGNED first edition -. Fine in glossy illustrated wrappers.. First printing, a trade paperback original. The story of a woman's determination to succeed in business, no matter what the obstacles - she "broke into the previously all-male arena of selling the kind of wire that supermarkets and other businesses use to bind cardboard boxes into recyclable bales. Knowing nothing about the recycling process or the industry's baler-wire needs, she taught herself all the details of the trade, figured out how to be an efficient employer, and learned to fend off predatory competitors on her way to turning her small start-up, Vulcan Wire, into a thriving company that sells over $10 million in wire per year." SIGNED on the title page. Endnotes. x, 304 pp.
