Start Your Business in 7 Days
Speaker(s): James Caan
Recorded on 13 March 2012 in Sheikh Zayed Theatre, New Academic Building
This event celebrates the publication of James Caan’s new book Start Your Business in 7 Days.
On Dragons’ Den, James Caan saw over 1,000 budding entrepreneurs pitch their ideas from anything that ranged from the bizarre to the revolutionary. Having spent the past 30 years starting, building and growing businesses, James has become recognised as one of the UK’s most prominent experts on entrepreneurship. His talk will take you through the journey of an entrepreneur, the pathway to a successful business, but also the ability to recognise when an idea is not a business, potentially saving you the investment of valuable time and money.
James Caan is one of the UK’s most celebrated businessmen. Having built global multi-million pound recruitment companies, he now has a portfolio of over 30 businesses within his private equity firm, Hamilton Bradshaw. He has consistently followed the mantra of “backing people with passion” and invests in entrepreneurs across a number of sectors including real estate, recruitment and professional services.

Yeah Yeah great guy…they are all great guys…!
why is everyone under their spell and can’t see the truth !
or more to the point ask the real questions !
if all these guys were so successful and rich !
why are they still traveling around talking at small business forums
etc…..
only a few minutes into this video and James is promoting his new BOOK..!
Get it…? Book Book yes they make their money from the book business
do your homework google the book business and see the direct correlation
between the biggest selling books and the richest authors !
Dont be fooled I like Robert Kiyosaki …You know the rich dad poor dad guy
….!
but he didnt make his money from those velcro wallets actually he went
broke bankrupt and then he started a t shirt business and guess what he
went bankrupt
and then again a third time …
Until he and his then girfriend were living in the back of a van on the
street….!
Yes a loser…! it wasnt untill he wrote the book R dad P dad he made
enough money to invest in real estate … and he is still writing books !
thats where the money is BOOKSBOOKSBOOKS….. !

Anyone can create a business in 7 days. But, do you think this video will
help you make it work or even make money? Will James Caan show you step by
step how to sort finances or create a killer product in 7 days? I don’t
think so. This is conjecture. This is just Caan gaining exposure for his
own purposes for his own ego.

Having an idea is one thing, but being able to apply that idea and make
money out of is is totally different. Everyone can have an idea, but not
everyone can run a business. It takes commitment, creativity and the
business person itself to drive themselves to create something from an
idea.

Great topic, but the quality of the video is very poor. I would expect a
school like LBS to post a better quality video….the echo is just
unbearable

Is Caan paying tax yet? That’s one way to do it, be like Caan and avoid
tax. Easy when you can legally avoid paying it.

My inspiration to write this book is making even more money, why should Mr
Khan tell you how to make money, This is how it works my accounting
friends, for every £1 you make you take that £1 from someone else, If
everyone became rich then we would all be average , none of us would be
rich, The game is to stay ahead of you all, you have to be selfish and
ruthless
