A Stockport author has created a new book designed to offer wisdom for local entrepreneurs.

Lyndsey Meredith's The Business Bible was published in September and quickly went to number one in multiple categories in the Amazon charts, including small business ebooks and marketing and sales.

The forty-two-year-old mum said she made the book to help other entrepreneurs and small businesses thrive.

It features 27 chapters; a literal A-Z of advice for business owners, from A and AI through to V and Virtual Assistance.

Each chapter is written by a different business specialist - a veritable 'black book' of business experts.

Lyndsey herself wrote the foreword and the chapter 'P is for Publishing', as well as editing the book as a whole.

She described the editing process as like going through a business degree.

"There is so much knowledge here, and as someone who's been in business for many years I still learnt so much", she said.

"We cannot all be experts in everything and I really value learning from experts in their field.

"This book is packed with gold from professionals at the very top of their industries, and written in a way that is easy to digest, fun to read and can be picked up and put down as and when needed.

"I can see this becoming a business bible for startups to established business owners because learning more about the mechanics that make our businesses thrive will never get old.

"I actually think it should be government funded and offered to every single new business starting out – because we just don't get taught this stuff, and often don't learn about most of it until it's too late!

"Each author has written a chapter and included resources on their expertise to help provide tools and further guides for the reader to progress – it is so much more than a book. It's an education."
