motivating lemonade story

I loved this book! its makes you believe that even the smallests dreams can come true, with just the right attitude and support.

Practical Business Advices

While lots of books give you high level theories on how to succeed in your business, they usually leave you hanging at the end of the reading not know what actions to take in order to apply the theories in your day-to-day operation. Rancic's book however has a step-by-step recount of how he did it with his cigar business. You will get specific actions that you can do tomorrow to generate sales. While other books give you general directions (and lots of bullsh & ts), Rancic tells you specifically what he had done to succeed his business, what radio station he called, how much he paids for, what's the account was, how much he charged. If you are an entrepreneur starting out or already struggling with your small/medium size business, this book is your road map.

Inspiring!!

From the moment I picked up this book and started reading it, I could not put it down! Literally. Thank goodness my toddler was still sleeping in the early morning hours, which allowed me to do so. Bill talks about how he was brought up and how is entreprenral mind was formed. It was a very interesting and inspiring read. If you are thinking about going into business for yourself, read this book. It confirms the fact that if you do not go for it, it will never happen. Bill took his dreams and ideas and turned them into reality.

Great. Bill is a smart, likeable guy and the book was great

I bought it at the airport to kill time during my 3 hour flight... I was landing before I realized it -- the book was completely enthralling. Bill is the kind of guy any young American with an entrepreneurial spirit can identify with. I found his life stories and his experiences on The Apprentice made very interesting, inspiring, and informative reading. I recommend this book highly to all Apprentice fans.

Reality show winner: REAL ADVICE

Certainly an upbeat, carpe diem, you can be a winner in business -book: written by a regular guy, turned superstar. I saw the show, and I was interested in Bill. He does not disappoint! Tells the story of business success, complete with full details... he didn't hold back. Bill, it seems, started like most of us- with nothing: not a pedigree, old boys network, or even cash in the bank. Now he's on the top of the world. I certainly was super interested in the story- told here. If you love America- and root for the nice guy, albeit underdog- you'll love the book.
