I am mentoring my son in pursuit in surveying and remember this book as a good read.
Does anyone have this book to sell??ÿ Also looking for recommendations and books for him as good reference resources.?ÿ Everyone should have a shelf of this in my opinion.
?ÿ
message me with what you might have.
?ÿ
thanks
Does anyone know Dan personally??ÿ I wonder how he would feel about sharing his book??ÿ?ÿ I have the CD but it's protected and you need the code to print it.?ÿ I wouldn't share it without his permission but wonder if we could ask him.?ÿ

@andy-j I do know Dan, he retired on 31-Dec-2017 and I have not seen or heard from him since.
I too have a copy of the book (DVD) and it is password protected.
I will inquire of him as to availability of book or sharing existing copies.

Is this the book?:
https://www.amazon.com/Business-Management-Handbook-Land-Surveyors/dp/0980059631
?ÿ
Looks like something I would like to read also.?ÿ Actually, any business book geared towards teh solo / small surveyor would be great.?ÿ
?ÿ
Our education will entail court cases overing an obscure aspect of property law, and least squares adjustment to fix millimeter errors that no one will ever find, but the running of a small surveying business is not covered normally.
I just heard from Dan and this was his response:
"The book is not in print anymore.?ÿ I certainly have no issue with sharing, copying, whatever."
So there you go, if you have a copy feel free to copy and distribute.

Thanks Shelby! I hope Dan knows how much his work is appreciated! I used it extensively for my on the fly business education.
I actually just found my printout of the book recently while I was moving.?ÿ So I have it in paper format, and could scan it back to a shareable PDF.?ÿ?ÿ I don't know the details of how the security code works.?ÿ Maybe I can just share the PDF and the code??ÿ
Dan is still AGL. Somebody should drop him a note and get permission before pirating his book.

I would really like to read this too.?ÿ I was looking at this a couple weeks ago and saw it was out of print.?ÿ?ÿ
I'd be super keen on a PDF copy too if you were able to! I tried dan recently to and got the same response that he didn't have any.
I would like to have a pdf version as well if you scan it. Thanks in advance..
I would love a copy too if anyone has it, or if they would want to sell me their copy? I am an LSIT and will hopefully become licensed this spring and eventually start out on my own after a little more experience. I have been trying to find a copy all over the internet. Shoot me a message if any of you are able to make a PDF copy or if you wanna sell yours.
"Pirating" ??? Dang, that's a bit harsh don't you think? Without even reading the posts, too. sheesh.
I'd like to read it also if somebody could post up a PDF of it??ÿ
I would love a PDF copy. I had also emailed Dan asking for a print/digital copy. His response:
"I don't even have a pdf copy. I have a couple of hard copies somewhere but keeping them for nostalgia purposes. Good luck with you business ventures.
Here's my advice in a couple of sentences:
Do what you said your were going to do when you said you were going to do it, and for the price you said you would.
Call them before they call you.
That's all you need to know. ????
Dan Beardslee, PLS"
That being said, I still would like a copy.
I'll scan it and put it up on a dropbox for everyone.?ÿ Will probably be next week sometime.?ÿ
