Chapter 1: Understanding Value vs. Price

In the realm of business, recognizing the importance of value over price is crucial for sustained success. Many entrepreneurs, especially those thriving in their ventures, understand that focusing on value leads to greater returns than merely cutting costs.

What insights can a non-business owner share about entrepreneurship? Surprisingly, a lot! While I may not own a business myself, I have observed and engaged with numerous entrepreneurs.
