How I Made It

An accessible, practical, and timeless guide to entrepreneurship from the founder/developer of some of Canada's most successful businesses, including Premiere Van Lines and Moore Executive Suites.

Tim Moore understands success. As a serial entrepreneur who started with nothing—he failed several grades, he had no formal business education, and he was on his way to becoming a priest—he has gone on to found numerous flourishing enterprises.

"I'm an eternal optimist. I always think there's a way forward," Moore writes in TITLE. At the age of twenty-one, he transformed a one-man, one-truck moving outfit into the biggest moving company in Canada, AMJ Campbell Van Lines, which twenty years later had a thousand trucks on the road and boasted $125 million in annual revenue; later, he founded Premiere Suites, which became the largest extended-stay provider in Canada.

Moore believes his model of success can work for other entrepreneurs. Among the most important tools for success are work ethic, strong interpersonal skills, and integrity. His management style is about attracting talented individuals with great attitudes, strong values, and a great capacity to laugh and have fun.

When change is afoot, opportunities arise. With XX b/w images and an eight-page colour insert, TITLE, Moore's third book, sets out to make Moore's own path to success clear—and to provide his life lessons as a guide and an inspiration for aspiring entrepreneurs.
