Business Made Simple: 60 Days to Master Leadership, Sales, Marketing, Executi...

Reading Donald Miller's book "Building a StoryBrand" changed the way I look at every single story that I watch on the big screen, on television, or read in books. It has helped me to craft a story so that my brand brings people into that story. In "Business Made Simple" Donald Miller has successfully condensed a year's worth of collegiate-level business school into a 60-day primer. I would even go so far as to say that he's shared more in this book that most students learn about business during their entire college career. This is an amazing practical tool for anyone looking to strengthen their business or professional organization through a step-by-step framework. This is a most welcome tool in a leadership space where "TAKE ACTION!" is shouted from the rooftops without any actual plan for success. Read this book and be enlightened!

I can highly recommend this book for any business owner, experienced or new. It's a great book but when you add the free videos that go with the book you realize it's a stellar deal! Very clear and easy to understand. Business principles broken down into simple terms - no "business jargon." It's a wonderful resource recommended to me by a business professional I trust and respect. He was right on in his recommendation. I love that the videos are delivered to my inbox every morning, and will be for 60 days. Become a value driven professional by reading this book, watching the videos, and putting his principles and ideas into practice. You will bring a lot more to the table with this knowledge.

My professor recommended it for my class. So far it is pretty interesting

Somewhat interesting. I have no business background—I’m in healthcare. Offers some nice thinking points and would be a decent reference when coming up with marketing and selling ideas. The business concept seems more aligned w product sales vs service based businesses. It has general take home info on marketing and wording and simplifying things for your customer/consumer. Having read this book seems to have benefited.

Great info on how to build a business and maintain through leadership and action.

Cannot recommend Miller enough!!! Simple but brilliant

I am the CEO of a nonprofit and I bought the book for our 30 team members from the janitor to the CFO and we are watching the videos and reading the book together so that everyone can see that titles don't bring value, but individuals who value their role in the company can and do bring value that helps the company make money, solve problems, and alleviate the frustrations that come from working together with people. This book is for everyone who "works", you don't need to be a leader with a TITLE to be a leader. This is a great leadership book. I have grown our company to millions from zero (grass-roots) but I want everyone on my team in our company to be able to do what I have been doing so that I can sustain our work and continue our work. This is a foundational book. Our entire team has taken the challenge for the next 60 days and I am expecting one hundred percent of us to bring even more value to our company so that we make our customers more money, solve problems and help them have fewer frustrations and in turn make our company more money so that we are able to continue in business.

One of the reviews calling this book clickbait made me chuckle. Every book is clickbait. The author wants you to seek them out whether it be fiction or non-fiction. That is the works in which we live. Authors need a platform. In this case, yes, Donald Miller wants your email address. In return you receive coaching videos. You can of course sign up for more. That isn’t necessary. I don’t know Miller; don’t need to. I only know his books, his podcast, and his videos challenge my thinking. I have been in business for over 30 years. I do not have the hubris to think I can’t learn more from someone trying a new approach. My recommendation is to buy the book. The multilayered approach is a great way to bring the lessons to a new level. In fact, buy the book for key members and members of your team with growth potential. Business can be boiled down to some key lessons to get people moving in the right direction. I think that is what Miller is trying to accomplish. It won’t make me stop reading Lencioni, Collins, or Drucker. It will enhance it.
