Dan Sullivan, the world's leading coach for highly successful entrepreneurs, wants you to know that achieving 10X growth is exponentially easier than striving for 2X growth. Most find this idea confusing at first because simply imagining 10X growth causes them to think they need to do 10X more work to achieve it. However, being a 10X entrepreneur is nothing like what most people think.

You know who your competitors are. You keep tabs on them regularly, and can list them calmly, along with their strengths and weaknesses. But your enemies are a whole other matter. They’re the haters and the doubters who said you’d never make it, the ones who stomped on your dreams. When you think about your enemies, you get emotional. You feel like you won’t let anything—or anyone—stop you.

And what he found looked far different than expected.

They say you shouldn't ask your mom whether your business is a good idea, because she loves you and will lie to you. This is technically true, but it misses the point. You shouldn't ask anyone if your business is a good idea. It's a bad question, and everyone will lie to you at least a little. As a matter of fact, it's not their responsibility to tell you the truth. It's your responsibility to find it, and it's worth doing right.

You live in your dream house, but there's no mortgage. No alarm clock, no boss, no bills. No claims on the day's time other than what you choose. It is making more money before breakfast than you made for an entire week at your last job. It is a crazy expensive car parked in your garage, a victorious symbol that your dreams no longer sleep in fantasies, but are awake with reality.

A business parable about how to create a start-up that won't trap you when you want to sell it. According to John Warrillow, the number one mistake entrepreneurs make is to build a business that relies too heavily on them. Thus, when the time comes to sell, buyers aren't confident that the company-even if it's profitable-can stand on its own. To illustrate this, Warrillow introduces us to a fictional small business owner named Alex who is struggling to sell his advertising agency.

Currently about two percent of all app developers can claim about 55 percent of all the revenue generated by apps each year. If you are looking for a way to break into this elite group, then App Marketing: Top Mobile App Monetization and Promotion Strategies is the book that you have been waiting for. While the early days of the app business meant a gold mine of innovative software and cheap apps that made money hand over fist, today's environment is very different than it was a decade ago. That doesn't mean there isn't still money to be made, however.

Publisher's Summary
The ultimate guide to building an app-based business - now revised and updated
Apps have changed the way we communicate, shop, play, interact and travel, and their phenomenal popularity has presented possibly the biggest business opportunity in history.
In How to Build a Billion Dollar App, serial tech entrepreneur George Berkowski gives you exclusive access to the secrets behind the success of the select group of apps that have achieved billion-dollar success.
Berkowski draws exclusively on the inside stories of the billion-dollar app club members, including Instagram, Whatsapp, Snapchat, Candy Crush and Uber, to provide all the information you need to create your own spectacularly successful mobile business. He guides you through each step, from an idea scribbled on the back of an envelope through to finding a cofounder, building a team and attracting (and keeping) millions of users, all the way through to juggling the pressures of being CEO of a billion-dollar company (and still staying ahead of the competition).
If you've ever dreamed of quitting your nine-to-five job to launch your own company, or if you're a gifted developer, a seasoned entrepreneur or just intrigued by mobile technology, How to Build a Billion Dollar App will show you what it really takes to create your own billion-dollar mobile business.
Critic Reviews
"A fascinating deep dive into the world of billion-dollar apps. Essential reading for anyone trying to build the next must-have app." (Michael Acton Smith, founder and CEO, Mind Candy)

There is nothing that this book teaches you
Everybody knows Whatsapp sold for $19 billion, snapchat was good and Instagram was acquired and so on and so forth. The author clearly has no idea of how to build an app like that and is beating around the bush , repeatedly talking about apps that the world already knows. I have never rated an audio book earlier and I felt compelled to rate this, because of my disappointment.

Covers a lot or great factors
I wish I listened to this 5 years ago. Covers a lot of great factors that I had to learn the long way. Its good advice and should be considered in all app start up adventures. I do wish they made simple edits, by updating the stats on the company's they mentioned. Its 2020, a lot has changed.

The book shares some great tips and insights into how to think and prepare your app for greatness. I really enjoyed this and gained a lot from it as someone who is on this journey themselves. it was narrated clearly and even at 1.4x I could follow it easily.
