Just what this 60 year old needed to renegade.

I had almost checked out on my 32 year old business.......nearly lost the passion. Listening fired me up.
I'm telling everyone it's important they stop what they are doing and listen to the entire book NOW!

brilliantly unorthodox. intelligently uncouth.

What made the experience of listening to The Toilet Paper Entrepreneur the most enjoyable?

Chock-full of useful information, while being not in the least bit dry.

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Toilet Paper Entrepreneur?

play-by-play narration of a public restroom 3-sheets dilemma.

What about Mike Michalowicz’s performance did you like?

energy, enthusiasm, and clearly in the author's voice because he self-narrated :-P

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I laughed early, I laughed often, and I laughed hard.

Any additional comments?

TPE is the "how to start a lean business" book. The Pumpkin Plan (also by Mike Michalowicz and also on Audible) is the "how to grow beyond your plateau" book. Both are irreverent and full of great ideas.

Read in reverse order

This is the first book in Mike's series of books and having listened to them in reverse order, the insights Mike provides in later books with regards to the context in which this book played out help put it into perspective.

A great performance with a good story but I would encourage everyone to read Mike's other books first.

Great listen.

Mike is a great motivator with some great advice. It's worth the listen if your struggling to get your butt off the couch and continue/start your business.

I am a TPE

What did you love best about The Toilet Paper Entrepreneur?

Ironically, I read this book last of all 3 of Mike's books. Still loved it. I am have had a company for almost 2 years and though much of the book still applies to me, I only wish I read it 2 years ago. I love that Mike brings it as he is, like it or not!

Who was your favorite character and why?

Mike! As a young business owner I felt the chill in my spine and fire in my stomach when Mike mentioned he started at 24 years old; I am 24 now.

Any additional comments?

Having read all 3 of Mike's books I can honestly say they speak for themselves. Even if you don't like the accents and cheesy humor, you will eventually! If I ever have the pleasure of meeting Mike Michalowicz someday I only hope to buy him a beer! Cheers, Mike!

I can't get enough of this guy ❤️

Many authors/narrators can be pleasant to listen to but this guy really is funny! Despite the fact I already know about the topics he covers in his OTHER books, I am tempted to by one of his other books just for the fact I'm guaranteed a great listen! 😊😉👍

PS. I'm always skeptical of reviews that are complimentary so for what it is worth, I should mention; I don't know the author and - as of 5/2017, I'm not an blogger of affiliate of ANY kind.

PSS.... the not so bonus, bonus-content about Mr Crapper is interesting Trivia I never knew of prior.

Informative & entertaining!

Mike's teaching style is informative, action packed and entertaining. He's a bit crass at times (just in case you didn't pick up on that in his other work) but it's not offensive.

I had several "aha" moments of where I've gone off course in my own start-up. Now I'm looking forward to course-correcting and seeing growth in my biz due to Mike's advice.

Great for an Intro

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, if your starting out, it is a good start to open your eyes.

What about Mike Michalowicz’s performance did you like?

Good stories.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

no.

Any additional comments?

Again, great for beginners looking for a start into something, once you have much of the experience I feel you are too far past to apply a lot of his talks.
