 | Making a Billion by Making the Bands by Lou Pearlman, Wes Smith
A Marketing Guru Rewrites the Rules for Achieving Fame and Fortune A dynamic business biography packed with great stories and practical lessons from one of the most successful figures in the entertainment industry today How does a working-class kid from Queens, New York, transform a lifelong fascination with the Goodyear blimp into an aviation empire by the time he's 21?

Writing in an engaging and dynamic style, he describes his 10 Practical Principles for business and entrepreneurial success and offers prescriptions for everything from team building to risk taking, and from savvy marketing to raising capital and financing new ventures.
