Stan Mkhabele spent half his life as owner/manager and operator of small businesses. Following his experiences during that time, he wrote BUSINESS TIPS which he believes will assist many practising as well as aspiring business persons with a non-academic approach to business.

Stan studied Medical Microbiology, spending 8 years behind the microscope. When the prospects of promotion became bleak, he quit the lab, trained to dress Afro-Hair and started Dr Fingertips Beauty & Health salons in Soweto, Johannesburg in South Africa.
