#1 Amazon Best Seller in Entrepreneurship, Startups, Innovation, and Christian Business categories This book is for anyone who has ever dreamed of starting something. Thinking about starting your own company? Curious about what startup life is really like? Looking to commiserate over the brutality that is the road called entrepreneurship? This book is for you. In Startup Stories, serial entrepreneur Jordan Raynor gives an honest look at what it takes to launch a company, grind through startup life, and grow a business from the ground up. Using stories from his most recent endeavor (Citizinvestor – the largest crowdfunding platform for government projects in the U.S., currently valued at $3,500,000), Jordan shares a series of lessons that are critical for any entrepreneur to learn. In this short book, you'll hear Jordan share stories about: How he met his "startup spouse" and learned what makes a great business partnership Why his team wrote stories about their product before registering a domain name or hiring a developer Raising capital from Silicon Valley and friends and family The wild emotional roller coaster ride startups put you through How he gets meetings with amazing people simply by having the audacity to ask How to be content regardless of the success or failure of your startup This won't feel like another “how to” book. Raynor's casual style will make you feel as if the two of you are swapping stories over your favorite cup of coffee. If you've ever been interested in starting something, you'll want to start reading Startup Stories today. An excerpt from Startup Stories: In a few minutes, I was to take the stage following an amazing “fireside chat” with Chris Hughes, a Co-founder of Facebook and the leader of the Obama campaign's historic “My Barack Obama” social network. If that wasn't cool enough, the rest of the lineup of speakers at the event included the CEOs of The New York Times, The Guardian, and Tumblr; the CTO of Amazon.com; a General Partner of Andreessen Horowitz, and a former United States Senator. And then there was me, Jordan Raynor, a Co- founder of a company no one could properly pronounce. To say I was out of my league would be an epic understatement. As a friend of mine said to me a few days before the speech, “Dude, I think you're great and all, but you have no business being on that stage.” My friend was right. So how did this happen? Mostly through grace. In my short career as an entrepreneur, I have been blessed immeasurably with amazing opportunities I did not earn or deserve. But as I inched closer to the edge of my seat, ready to charge the podium, I couldn't help but think that one of the reasons I was there was because the team at our young startup had decided to solve a real problem. By focusing on a problem of such great importance, we have gained access to more amazing people and opportunities in two years than most people get in a lifetime. We have been invited to The White House to talk about what implications crowdfunding might have on the federal government; we were featured alongside a movie with Matt Damon; we were flown to France to address the Council of Europe; we had tea with the Lieutenant Governor of California. Even if Citizinvestor were to fail, the experiences we have had along the way would have made it all worthwhile. I believe these experiences are a direct result of us tackling a significant problem.

After more than twenty years of living and working with entrepreneurs on four continents, Professor Steve Phelan hasn't seen it all, but he has seen a lot! In Startup Stories, he distills his wisdom on how to become a successful entrepreneur into sixteen chapters, supported by the stories of everyday entrepreneurs he has met over the years.Most books on entrepreneurship try to teach you how to become an extraordinary entrepreneur, the next Steve Jobs or Elon Musk. The problem is there are only 2,000 billionaires on the planet, so the odds are slim that you will be joining their ranks. Instead, this book shows you how to make the most of being an everyday entrepreneur. Everyday entrepreneurs don't make the headlines, but almost half of the population will be quietly involved in an entrepreneurial activity at some stage in their lives. This book is for you. The book begins by framing entrepreneurship as a series of progressively challenging levels. Personal entrepreneurs use their entrepreneurial spirit to achieve their goals while working for others. Nascent entrepreneurs are in the process of birthing a business. Lifestyle entrepreneurs enjoy the autonomy of working for themselves but like to keep things small. Employer entrepreneurs, on the other hand, rely on hiring family members and other employees to boost revenues and results. Growth entrepreneurs would like to grow their business in a major concern, while super entrepreneurs are already operating in the billion-dollar range. Dr. Phelan examines the advantages, challenges, and opportunities of operating at each level. The result is a very human, very readable book that combines true stories with sound principles that are guaranteed to inspire and inform regardless of where you choose to start your entrepreneurial journey.

Now available in paperback—with a new preface and interview with Jessica Livingston about Y Combinator! Founders at Work: Stories of Startups' Early Days is a collection of interviews with founders of famous technology companies about what happened in the very earliest days. These people are celebrities now. What was it like when they were just a couple friends with an idea? Founders like Steve Wozniak (Apple), Caterina Fake (Flickr), Mitch Kapor (Lotus), Max Levchin (PayPal), and Sabeer Bhatia (Hotmail) tell you in their own words about their surprising and often very funny discoveries as they learned how to build a company. Where did they get the ideas that made them rich? How did they convince investors to back them? What went wrong, and how did they recover? Nearly all technical people have thought of one day starting or working for a startup. For them, this book is the closest you can come to being a fly on the wall at a successful startup, to learn how it's done. But ultimately these interviews are required reading for anyone who wants to understand business, because startups are business reduced to its essence. The reason their founders become rich is that startups do what businesses do—create value—more intensively than almost any other part of the economy. How? What are the secrets that make successful startups so insanely productive? Read this book, and let the founders themselves tell you.

Going through the stories of each of the entrepreneur’s profile in the book, what also struck me was the sheer range of the startups from healthy eating to quirky products to bargain solutions to anti-virus software, the products conceived, devised, and developed span a wide canvas. While some are completely new to the market, others have taken on competition from already existing similar products, which they have managed to counter simply by making theirs a better and more user-friendly version. This again brings home yet another tried and tested rule that however crowded the marketplace is, there is always room for quality. This is also precisely why in a market overcrowded with books on entrepreneurship, you will soon see why this one flies off the shelves with such ease. Finally, I would like to point out that while at the outset this book may seem like a perfect guide for those wanting to get into start-ups and looking for viable ways of funding, it’s as much a treasured read for investors wanting to put their money into sound ventures. The book enables one to get a detailed insight into what works and what doesn’t in the market. Too often one tends to reject ideas that look untenable and, hence, un-fundable, and then much to the anguish of those who first rejected it, they turn out to be veritable blockbusters! Haven’t we all heard of Facebook rejecting WhatsApp cofounder Brian Acton for a job and then paying $19 billion to buy what could have been its own homegrown product?

'You won't find a more honest, raw and helpful look into the trenches of founding a tech startup than this book' Nir Eyal, author of Hooked 'Rand Fishkin is the real deal' Seth Godin, entrepreneur and author ----------- Everyone knows how a startup story is supposed to go: a young, brilliant entrepreneur has an cool idea, drops out of college, defies the doubters, overcomes all odds, makes billions and becomes the envy of the technology world. This is not that story. Rand Fishkin, the founder and former CEO of Moz, is one of the world's leading experts on SEO. Moz is now a $45 million a year business, but Fishkin's business and reputation took 15 years to grow, and his startup began not in a Harvard dorm room but as a mother-and-son family business that fell deeply into debt. Now Fishkin pulls back the curtain on tech startup mythology, exposing the ups and downs of startup life that most CEOs would rather keep secret. For instance: a minimally viable product can be destructive if you launch at the wrong moment. Growth hacking may be the buzzword du jour, but initiatives to your business can fizzle quickly. Revenue and profitability won't protect you from layoffs. And venture capital always comes with strings attached. In Lost and Founder Fishkin reveals the mostly awful, sometimes awesome truth about startup culture with the transparency and humour that his hundreds of thousands of blog readers have come to love. Fishkin's hard-won lessons are applicable to any kind of business environment and this book can help solve your problems, and make you feel less alone for having them. ----------- 'This is a truly courageous book. It's one part business-building guide and two parts Indiana Jones-style adventure memoir' Chris Guillebeau, author of Side Hustle and The $100 Startup 'Rand Fishkin is like the industry friend we all wish we had - funny, warm, and refreshingly honest about the rollercoaster ride that is founding your own company' Julie Zhou, VP of Product Design at Facebook
