The books I read for business have been really imperative to shaping our growth and mindset at Vertical Ledge. Neither Andrey nor I went to school for business, and while we are grateful for that, we still keep learning business tactics front and center.

• Would we be where we are without reading these books?

  • No, each book has added some benefit to our business. Either actionable steps forward, mindest changes or simply preparing us for what’s next.

• Do I think each book is necessary for every business owner?

  • No, but I d think it' is important to look at different stages of business even if you are not in that stage yet. This can help prepare you for the upcoming challenges.

• Why read books when you could use that time to dive deeper into your business?

  • Reading these books and listening to podcasts, allows us to learn from others instead of shouldering it all on our own. We learn quicker, save time, and eliminate headaches.
