Summary of Courtney Reum & Carter Reum's Shortcut Your Startup
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 As entrepreneurs, you must minimize the number of unknowns and navigate your team around the traps to the best of your ability. This is done on the front lines, not in the boardroom, where a strategy is set. #2 The consequence of being late is that you have less time to meander. Since businesses can get their products in front of so many customers using digital tools, the consequences of being slow are massive. #3 The Switchup approach is to leave your job and work the line at a restaurant, making minimum wage, to learn about the industry. This allows you to take the right amount of risk. #4 Before you begin your testing, create a game plan. Test your assumptions systematically and find answers to the things you don’t know. Support your trench experience with desk research.

Built to Sell
Run your company. Don’t let it run you. Most business owners started their company because they wanted more freedom—to work on their own schedules, make the kind of money they deserve, and eventually retire on the fruits of their labor. Unfortunately, according to John Warrillow, most owners find that stepping out of the picture is extremely difficult because their business relies too heavily on their personal involvement. Without them, their company—no matter how big or profitable—is essentially worthless. But the good news is that entrepreneurs can take specific steps—no matter what stage a business is in—to create a valuable, sellable company. Warrillow shows exactly what it takes to create a solid business that can thrive long into the future.

In 2006, the TOMS shoe company radically disrupted the for-profit business model, literally for good.

The TOMS Effect is a book that explains and explores this phenomenon, through TOMS company history, as well as through major corporations like Walgreens, Walmart, Nestle, Stella Artois, and Michael Kors, as in addition to younger, smaller companies a...
