Summary

"Never started a company before? Struggling with little or no cash? Have no experience, no baseline to judge your progress against? Thank God! You've got a shot at making this work."

So says Mike Michalowicz, author of The Toilet Paper Entrepreneur, a business book that is so uniquely useful, so raw and entertaining, it reads like the brainchild of Steve Jobs and Chris Rock.

The founder of three multimillion-dollar companies, including Obsidian Launch, a company that partners with first-time entrepreneurs to grow their concepts into industry leaders, Mike Michalowicz knows what it really takes to spin your great idea into pure gold.

Whether you're just starting out or have been at this for years, Mike's "get real" approach to business is a much-needed, swift kick in the pants. In this book, you'll discover:

  • Why a business plan is a total waste of your time
  • Why fulfilling your own needs is the first and last order of business
  • Which three sheets of paper you need to successfully launch, manage, and grow your business
  • How to get started in business with little or no money
  • How to find and exploit resources that no one else knows about
  • How to stop procrastinating and take action NOW!

If picking used tissue out of a bin in the toilet is something you’d do, then this book for you.

Probably the least useful business book I’ve listened to.

I don’t see anything useful you would gain from this book if you regularly listen to this type of book.

If this is your first book on this subject matter there are far better ones like the diary of a CEO or many many others.

If you have a business get this book!

This book helped me so much. It's easy to follow, it's not condescending and Mike has a great way of presenting his ideas. I can't recommend this enough.

Great tips, well narrated and fun to listen to

I listen to a lot of books about entrepreneurship and after a few it is hard to find one with original thoughts and one that motivates you. This book really dit give me some new perspectives on running your own business and motivated me. The narrator is pleasant to listen to and really motivates.
