It is a comprehensive collection of various topics & contents relating to business concepts such as sales, marketing, finance, systems, teams etc. A good one time read as a reference to brush up these topics. Not a profound study or in depth analysis that a MBA course would offer.As there are so many topics & probably each topic requires a book of its own. The author has fragmented various topics & have given an overview of each. The book is good as much as to know how businesses work and the common terminology and parameters used by businesses. Read and apply the learning in practical life & business along with more research. It will surely help ! Congrats to author Josh Kaufman, this book is surely a success & worth the time and cost.

A must read book.

It's a nice way to MBA, award last business education in a single Book

I recommend every who are starting entrepreneur journey it help lot important concept.

Favourable because: detailed explanations on differentiated topics, Understandable case studies through elaborate examples, Covers major concepts. Less favourable due to: repetitive content as the terminologies are different but the functions of the particular role in discussion is more or less the same, The case studies in question need not emphasize about being definitely true universally, the dynamics of every market differ indefinitely. Readers must be careful enough to distinguish what all applies to Indian markets the same way as described in the book.

Best book i ever read. Very very helpful and knowledgeable informations and business insights which covers many topics related to business, human mind, finance, value creation, value delivery, working with others, management etc. and many more I found it very helpful and fully worth it. I highly suggest it buying as it changes my perspective and also beginner friendly
