Customer Reviews

I feel Like a winner!

Well, I must say I have had my book for about 1 year and I was praying and asking God for something more. He answered me, I picked up Sister CEO and it was there the whole time. This book inspired me to walk in and take the company to new levels it helped to change my way of thinking,especially the testimonies that I can relate to that makes you feel good about the growing pains. Since reading the book I have a new attitude, I hold my head up, and I am more ready than ever to go to new height's. Thanks Cheryl you are reaching and helping CEO's like me who really needed the confirmation and inspiration.

Fantastic for all black women

I am a Black Australian woman and I found this book applicable to my situation. The information crosses all boundries and the advice useful in many situations.

Believe and Succeed

At last a book to inspire and encourage black women to attain greatness. Both my self esteem and belief in my own abilities grew and grew as I read this book. It not only provides a guide to starting your own business, it also makes you believ you can succeed just like our mother and grandmothers, only we didn't see their efforts as entrepreneurial. I appreciate the history of the women of my family more and inspired by the book are working at becoming a part of that history by establishing my own business. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Excellent presentation and helpful tips.

I found Sister Ceo to be motivational and enlightening. It addressed all of my fears about trying to establish my own business. Furthermore, it helped me to see that my fears are or have been the fears of many aspiring business women of color. I would like to see a sistehood of sister ceo's develop. This sisterhood would be like a sorority.

Highly recommended to ALL women!

Sister CEO is very motivating, realistic, and I highly recommend it. Broussard is obviously a go-getter and would be an asset in anyone's circle. Her book would be very useful to ANY women who aspires entreprenuerialship. Only one view in her book I did not agree with, and that was on the subject of financing your business. My interpretation was to borrow, beg, or take money out of your house, to do whatever was legally necessary to finance your business -just get started-. Understood if you're single, but if you are married this finanical decision should be agreed upon between BOTH partners. Other than that, a Job Well Done, Broussard!
