As fans of the television reality series, Shark Tank, where inventors and entrepreneurs can pitch their products to potential investors, we were excited to hear the “sharks” released a book featuring advice for new business owners and others interested in growing their business, Shark Tank Jump Start Your Business: How to Launch and Grow a Business from Concept to Cash.
On the up side, this book is an easy read and provides solid information for novices and start-ups businesses. It is divided into six parts, each with a colorful first-person account from one of the “sharks.”
- To Be or Not To Be an Entrepreneur (Shark Lori Grenier)
- Setting up Shop (Shark Robert Herjavec)
- Money Matters (Shark Kevin O’Leary)
- Open for Business (Shark Daymond John)
- Taking It to the Next Level (Shark Barbara Corcoran)
- A Dip in the Tank: Behind-the-Scenes at Shark Tank (Shark Mark Cuban)
On the other side, most of it is not actually written by the sharks themselves and it acts a companion and almost a promotion piece for the television series; the foreword is even done by the executive producer, Mark Burdett.
The book is available on Amazon via Kindle and as a paperback. It is also available for free as an Audible audio download, our preferred method.
