Summary: In the first chapter of this book, you will meet four successful, independent businessmen. Each, in his own way, has carved out a career as an independent sales agent- -a manufacturers' representative, rep, or agent. These people typify the many thousands who, at some time in their life, leave secure, well-paying jobs to take a fling at being their own boss, running a small business. In this respect, reps aren't much different from many other people who start small businesses- using their wits, personal resources, and an idea to build a new career and livelihood.
