"Entrepreneurship can get overglamorized," said Tyler Wright, who left a sales job to build a personal finance brand and coaching business. "You have to manage yourself better and differently because you're working a job and you're trying to get something else off the ground, but you don't have to do it." Now, "I'm the CEO, I'm the CFO, I'm the head of content, I'm the head of accounting, I'm the head of everything," he continued.

Main Street Books sits, appropriately, on Main Street in Davidson, North Carolina, where Fitzgerald has lived since 1997 when she started her freshman year at Davidson College. When asked about her top choice in the business book category, she cited "The E-Myth," written by small-business consultant Michael E. Gerber. "There are a million business books and 'The E-Myth' is brilliantly simple," said Fitzgerald. It's a nuts-and-bolts business book." However, you won't find it at Main Street Books, where shelf space is precious.
