Publisher's summary

Have you ever thought about starting your own business? Or, is building a company something “other people” do? In The Poster Boy, Chad Scott tells the story of a Midwestern kid from Missouri who worked up the nerve to move to Chicago and chase his dream of becoming an entrepreneur. He didn’t have a pile of cash or a bunch of connections - just a great idea and the willpower to see it through to the bitter end.

This book is half-memoir and half-guide. Chapters alternate between Chad’s story and practical business lessons designed to take you all the way from a bare concept to a lucrative business.

In the narration, you’ll find:

  • Real talk about the everyday problems entrepreneurs face
  • Advice for overcoming and growing through adversity
  • The inspiration to make something out of nothing
  • Practical tools and tactics for starting your own business
  • Wisdom for working with partners and investors
  • Ways to hire friends and influence people
  • Guidance for finding investors and raising money
  • Tips for building an organization that gives as good as it gets.
  • A plethora of stupid mistakes, ridiculous problems, and innovative solutions
  • All the motivation you need to set your business in motion today

Don’t let your fears keep you from getting into the game. Young, old, rich, poor, successful, or failing - if you’ve ever wanted to start your own business, this audiobook is for you.
