How does a working-class kid from Queens, New York, transform a lifelong fascination with the Goodyear blimp into an aviation empire by the time he's 21? How oes that young aviation entrepreneur then quickly become one of the most powerful forces in the entertainment industry­­a modern-day Louis B. Mayer, as the press has dubbed him? Find out in Bands, Brands, and Billions.

Writing in an engaging and dynamic style, Lou Pearlman describes his "10 Practical Principles" for business and entrepreneurial success and offers prescriptions for everything from team building to risk taking, and from savvy marketing to raising capital and financing new ventures.

• Used mink coats to rescue a failing charter service that flew between New York and Las Vegas
• Deployed a blimp on the desk of a McDonald's executive to win a major contract
• Made more than a half-billion dollars with a baffling business about-face from blimps to boy bands, even though his closest friends thought he'd lost his mind

Review from Publishers Weekly

Louis Pearlman, the marketer behind successful boy bands *NSync, the Backstreet Boys and O-Town, chronicles his career from Queens newspaper delivery boy to billionaire in this solid-though not essential-entrepreneur's handbook. The 48-year-old businessman discusses his ventures, which include blimps, helicopters and recording studios, along with his marketing and promotional strategies. In describing his businesses, the aggressive and persistent Louis keeps his ego in check, describing entrepreneurs simply as "'can do' people who see solutions and opportunities where others see problems and impossibilities." The book is most interesting when Louis J. Pearlman discusses his musical ventures, e.g., the Backstreet Boys' early struggles to get a record deal. Realizing that grassroots marketing would help the band gain momentum, he sent them to perform at schools and malls nationwide. "I identified the popular music market and, more specifically, the teenage girl audience as the primary target for the music and merchandise of the Backstreet Boys. My challenge was to convince the millions and millions of teen pop music buyers that the Backstreet Boys were the brand-name band they should buy into." In addition to his anecdotes about the music world, Lou Pearlman offers practical, if unoriginal, advice for fledgling entrepreneurs, including the importance of good accounting, financing techniques and intelligent handling of legal issues.
