About this listen

From the founders of the trailblazing software company 37signals, here is a different kind of business book one that explores a new reality. Today, anyone can be in business. Tools that used to be out of reach are now easily accessible. Technology that cost thousands is now just a few bucks or even free. Stuff that was impossible just a few years ago is now simple.That means anyone can start a business. And you can do it without working miserable 80-hour weeks or depleting your life savings. You can start it on the side while your day job provides all the cash flow you need. Forget about business plans, meetings, office space - you don't need them.

With its straightforward language and easy-is-better approach, Rework is the perfect playbook for anyone who's ever dreamed of doing it on their own. Hardcore entrepreneurs, small-business owners, people stuck in day jobs who want to get out, and artists who don't want to starve anymore will all find valuable inspiration and guidance in these pages. It's time to rework work.

Editor reviews

" Rework takes aim at marketing, hiring, and other disciplines associated with building a business as if they were bottles lined up against a wall. Then it blows them away...Fried and Hansson are the Henry David Thoreaus of entrepreneurship." (Leigh Buchanan, Inc. Magazine)
" Rework is a Webby manifesto for post-recession success. Forget about strategic planning, [the authors] advise. And ignore your competition - unless you feel like picking a public fight." (Nick Summers, Newsweek)
"I want to buy a copy for everyone I know either to validate their current business practices or to expose them to alternative ways of doing things." (Alexis Rodich, Washington Post)

The book has a positive message although sometimes their devil may care, just do it and worry about it later approach is almost comedic.Forget a business plan and strip down your product or design to it's bare essentials and just go for it,seems to be the message from the authors. Motivational if you have some anxiety about taking that last step,but I've tried that approach myself a few times and it is the best way to get into debt and fall flat on your face. If you want to listen to an enjoyable, motivational book then this is ok. If you're a go for it now and worry about the detail later type of guy and have some spare cash to take a bet, then I guess just go for it.

Just do it,worry later it seems

Astonishing book. Short and to the point. Essential BS-free info of relevance to everyone who just wants to get stuff done, regardless of where you sit in a large or small organisation.

Stunning

When I heard the last part of this book I couldn’t help but feel a bit ‘is that it?’ Kind of feeling.
No doubt the success of the author, however, in my opinion, the content of the book was just bland. I prefer books that go deep on certain areas, inject humour or a bit of story telling and lots of real life examples of the points the author is making. The only emotion I felt while listening was a slight bit of positivity at the start (about starting a business).

Stop wasting time reading my review and spend that time reading/listening to the book instead.

This book is great in so many ways. Just read it!

Beautifully narrated by Mike. I find him a pleasure to listen to.
The book was less a story of successful business implementing innovative techniques as I had hoped to read about. Instead almost a list of things to do in the opinion of one person.
I however found many of the suggestions very encouraging and will be sure to consider their implementation in my work.
