the best book is the one that you find at the right time with your right skill levels. that's why recommending books is so hard.
i liked, insanely liked, $100m offers by alex hormozi.
probably the best damn business book i've ever read. granted i don't read a lot at all. maybe read like <5-10 books in my life other than school text books. but it was good enough for me to finish it.
watch his youtube channel & you'll find his advice to be great. here's one of my favorite video of his → www.youtube.com/watch?v=LvHDT…
the other one i recommend reading as startup founder is traction because it teaches you marketing.
unless you make something truly innovative, you need to do marketing to get customers. this book tells you how to do marketing in ~15-20 different ways. covers everything from seo to pr.
i've read half of this book.
the other good one is the cold start problem but i guess that's for marketplaces. i have only read it first 20-40 pages but found it really insightful.
i also liked good to great by jim collins. he analysed what makes companies great through publicly available research for 5 years & found interesting insights & shared it with the world.
his podcast with tim ferriss is also a banger. must-listen.
but other than that, i'd listen to biographies. i absolutely love the founders podcast by david senra. he covers biographies.
the reason biographies are great is because you don't see a bunch of bullets. you see a story & why they made that decision so it makes the ideas stick. try listening to episodes like the polaroid one, steve jobs, jeff bezos, nike's shoe dog & you'll find yourself listening to biographies more.
david senra, the host also did the podcast which is the best podcast (i also liked jim collins x tim ferriss) i've found this year → www.joincolossus.com/episodes…

I really like founder stories too, I listen to a podcast in spanish that interviews Latin American founders and it's great. (startupeable.com)
I liked the video from alex hormozi, definitely the book could be useful.
Never heard about Traction before, really promising!
Thanks a lot!
