Great content. Repetitive. Varying audio quality.

It's Brian Tracy. Everything he says is true, useful, important and actionable. Do what he says (not just listen) and you see improvement.

That said, this audio program appears to have been cut and pasted together from disparate source. Some of them sound like he's using a Dictaphone in a bathroom stall. Others are top notch.

Additionally, he makes the same point over and over as if he hasn't made the point before. Again, because they come from various sources.

Fair warning on the above two points. If audio is a pet peeve for you, skip it. If you get irate at some repetition, likewise you'll hate it.

BUT, if you're like me and you just look at the value of the content. If you value repetition. If you can forgive imperfect audio. It's a winner.

Really, the value for the price can't be beat.

My suggestion. Get it and use it and ignore the slight negatives.

Good overall advice; some dated, and some obvious

What made the experience of listening to Business Start-Up Success Made Simple the most enjoyable?

Good advice on several different areas for starting and running a business from someone who has quite a bit of first-hand experience.

What three words best describe Brian Tracy’s voice?

Sedate, moist, and ??? The narration can put you to sleep or annoy you (make sure you listen to the sample before deciding to buy the book), since he has a pretty sedate speaking style, and it sounds like he has too much saliva in his mouth while narrating. The only way I could tolerate it without being distracted was to listen at a pretty high speed (2-3x setting on Android), which solved both concerns for me.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

The chapter on sales techniques was particularly useful and interesting to me. That seems to be one of his clear areas of strength from many years of direct experience. He presents a number of techniques for handling a pretty wide variety of sales situations.

Any additional comments?

Overall, I recommend the book for anyone considering starting a company, and even for those who are already working in an established company, since some of the advice is not only for start-ups. I felt that some of the advice seems a little "old-school" and also contradicts some guidance from other more modern start-up audio book authors that I recently experienced.

Business fundamentals from a master

What about Brian Tracy’s performance did you like?

I think like most of Brian Tracy's work, he distills often complex areas into clear concepts that then requires you to think about how it specifically applies to your situation. This program won't tell exactly what to do. However, it goes over the fundamental aspects of running your business, I expect to listen to this over and over again and after each time I've implemented some ideas.

Great information told in a distracting way

What did you love best about Business Start-Up Success Made Simple?

Brian Tracy is brilliant and provides numerous helpful business startup tips and strategies.

What other book might you compare Business Start-Up Success Made Simple to and why?

Zig Ziglar seems to have influenced Brian Tracy's information along with Maxwell.

How did the narrator detract from the book?

The narrator at times sounded as if he was in the bathroom and throughout the book there was the sound of unswallowed saliva. It was very distracting at times.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

The beginning portion where Brian Tracy calls for immediate action.

Any additional comments?

This audio book would have been superb if the narrator used a 'pop' blocker and drank more water.

I love Brian Tracy, just not his narration here

The content of this book is exceptional. It's more of what Brian Tracy has been talking about and teaching for years. However, I couldn't listen to this book because I was announced with the recording quality. I've listened to Brian Tracy audio books before and they weren't like this. In this book he sounds like he's sucking on a life saver during the recording. I don't want to sound mean, but I'm letting you know. Listen to the sample before you buy. It was a waste of my money, because I just can't listen to it. It grosses me out. If you want to listen to a great book by Brian Tracy, go for No Excuses! Fantastic Recording quality and the content is absolutely fantastic!
