Peterson's, a leading producer of college preparation and business information, today announced the June 14, 2016 publication of its newest book, Start Your Business on a Ramen Noodle Budget, by Queen of Ramen Noodle Startups and award-winning entrepreneur, Felecia Hatcher-Pearson. This quick-reading, inspiring, and often humorous guide outlines 12 important lessons broke entrepreneurs need to learn to get their business off the ground.

This book, with chapter titles such as Carpe Noodle and Beware of the Drunken Noodle, shows aspiring business owners how to leverage their creativity and passion to maximize their resources, contacts, and current assets to overcome one of the biggest roadblocks-a lack of funding. It includes topics such as utilizing social media to gain free advertising and new customers, living your life on your terms while starting a business, and the importance of creating unrealistic goals. Start Your Business on a Ramen Noodle Budget provides a practical yet excitingly different, no-nonsense way to launch a business.

"Start Your Business on a Ramen Noodle Budget is an MBA in a book for $19.95. Or you can go to Harvard and pay $250,000," says Diane Freaney, Founder and Creative Director of Rooted Investing, LLC.

"Start Your Business on a Roman Noodle Budget has to be one of 2016's most creative and empowering business reference tools for Millennials. Budding entrepreneurs, start-up founders, and Millennials can rejoice now, unbinding their fear of not having capital to start a business. This witty and hip work gives Millennials strategies on how to take advantage of starting a business in a recession economy and how to avoid old-school theory-driven business pastimes to harness today's technology to take the leap of faith into entrepreneurship." notes James Taylor, President and Strategic Visionary of Taylored Athletes Sports Management
