I enjoyed the book, the author done a great job with all of the different stories of people who achieved 7 figure businesses. Lots of helpful information in regards strategies used to scale or funding. On a side note some parts about health insurance for none American listeners could have benefitted in being in a separate chapter so you could skip that section easily.

Great to hear real life examples. Recommend!
