Bought the book off Amazon because i found the introduction to be interesting and wanted to find out more. Book is brief and can be finished in a seating. Author covers many key ideas of entrepreneurship that can be appreciated if one has relevant knowledge or experience but can be a bit hard to connect the dots for inexperience people. Overall an interesting read with key concepts of a business having a greater chance of success by targeting blue-sky market.

Easy reading/listening. Feels like an entrepreneur self-help book that states mostly trivialities. Interesting thoughts on keeping most of the equity and advocating a solo entrepreneur perspective, somewhat a contrarian view to most startups nowadays. Also, a key (possibly obvious but overlooked) takeaway is hiring for motivation and grit.

Lacking substance, a business book for teenagers not for anyone seriously considering building a business.

If you've got common sense the book will come as no surprise but non the less a great way to start confirming ones hypothesis on venturing out to uncharted land If you've got common sense the book will come as no surprise but non the less a great way to start confirming ones hypothesis on venturing out to uncharted land

Very good business tips from a man who came to Estonia with no money and he had just a motivation to do something. I think every business owner should read this book and follow these tiny steps which lead to bigger success.

Important information. I didn't need to read the entire (tiny) book - the last chapter or 2 summed it up pretty well. Look for blue sky markets and avoid hot markets. Right now a hot market would be social media marketing and a blue sky market would be tacos in Africa. lol! Important information.

A fantastic read! Will read again soon and buy for friends / business partners as a gift. Great for South African Entrepreneurs that are still scared of taking their businesses into Africa. Goes well with '101 Ways To Make Money In Africa'. A fantastic read! Will read again soon and buy for friends / business partners as a gift.
