Managing and operating a Catholic online business
for the Catholic family will not only be profitable,
but also meaningful, and with significance, if the
ideal of service is ingrained in the vision and
philosophy vision of our small business. The
following list given below are titles of business
books which one can purchase and read to gain
the necessary business wisdom and insight that
is important for the operation of one's
Catholic online business.
Service as a business mission is exciting and
builds positivity and enthusiasm. Even when the
economy is experiencing hard times, if one's Catholic
family business is rooted well in the ideal of service
excellence to people, then the business
will surely not only survive and thrive, but also
be at its best, in its desire to serve others.
The Catholic sector of business still has to produce
much business books to guide all who want to operate
a Catholic family business. There are however, Church
documents which give guidelines on how Catholics are
to operate their business ventures. To give a sample
of these documents and also other business books that
are Catholic in perspective, a list of titles is given
here below which you can search and purchase online:
- Gaudium et Spes, Chapter Three, "Economic
and Social Life
- "Heart-Business: Building a Kinder, Gentler
Workplace" by Dolores Lynn Torrell
- "The Hundredth Year" by Pope John Paul II
- "Bringing Spirituality to your Daily Work", by John C.
Haughey
- "The Holy Use of Money", by John C. Haughey
Aside from the business books written from a Catholic
perspective, there are also great books that are
rooted in the service ideal which we can also apply
to our Catholic family business. Below is a list
of these business books and also a brief review
of selected books from the list to help you know
more about the content of the books and make

Brief Reviews of some the books
Although most of these business books
have been written with businesses that
are not yet well computerized or highly
technological, the same principles hold
true for online businesses that still have
strong interpersonal contacts and
relationships with customers and clients.
All the business wisdom and insights
written in these business books and
resources can easily be translated to
the culture of the internet and the
way of servicing clients and customers
online.
In Search of Excellence is a
business book so classic that all business
people can not but read if they wish
their Catholic family business to
succeed in the online marketspace.
The very basics and rudiments
of a successful business enterprise
are given here through the examples
of America's great corporations. These
business principles can be easily
translated to the way we operate
our online business.
Clients for Life is very valuable
for business people who wish to commit
themselves to the service profession.
This business book will fully
establish one's Catholic online business
so that one can have a permanent, faithful and
loyal clientele and customer base. This
customer base will compose the core or bulk
of our repeat sales and business - one
that will call us to serve "clients
for life".
Samurai Selling is by far the
best business book on service in sales that
all can read and translate for our modern context.
Though the business wisdom and insight
are taken from ancient principles of
the samurai in service of his lord,
it can be well translated to our
small online business context. The
values and ideals of the samurai
is best seen in what the term really
means. "Samurai" means one who serves.
The Power of Positive Thinking
in Business is a very vital and
significant business book that can truly
help us build our Catholic family business.
The book gives 10 traits to help us
develop a positive attitude in building
and operating our business. For those
experiencing difficulty in finding means
and ways to obtain a positive attitude
and outlook in business, because of the
negative circumstances that happen in
our business environment, this business
book is indeed a great help to brighten
our outlook. It gives 10 solutions
to help us fight anxiety and worry
in operating our small online business.
- Optimism
- Enthusiasm
- Belief
- Integrity
- Courage
- Confidence
- Determination
- Patience
- Calmness
- Focus
My Father's Business is perhaps
the business book that truly encapsulates
the Christian principles of ministry.
It is to be remembered that before
Catholicism and Protestantism, Paul the
apostle, earned his keep in ministering
to the Gentiles. His business and
profession was tentmaking. So as
not to burden the Christian households
to whom he ministers and preaches the
gospel, he engaged in the tent making
business. This business book, "My Father's
Business", tells us that even though we
are engaged in business in the online
marketspace, we can, like Paul the Apostle,
also witness to others as a Christian, and
make our small online business a venue
and context for ministry and mission.
