I originally purchased Empire Builder, hoping to be inspired about what could one day be possible for my company. Instead, I got actionable advice in chapter one that I started using the same day. Adam Coffey’s writing style is conversational and to the point. He doesn’t overwhelm with fluff or anecdotes. Before I finished Empire Builder, I met with my entire team to break down our unit-level economics, as discussed in the book. Within a couple of hours, we were on an entirely new track with more clarity than ever before, and I’m still buzzing over it weeks later. It unlocked many of the roadblocks I had regarding scale and helped us paint a crystal clear picture of how to get to where we want to be. This book is a must-read for anyone running a business. No matter how much you already know, you will be surprised at how much you learn.

This book gives very clear guidance on how to grow and scale a company of any size in a profitable and sustainable manner.

Inspiring

Too many authors go on about their own personal achievements and stories--Coffey is not one of those people. He is brief with his own stories, and lengthly with his overall advice. The subject matter of the whole book was very evidently considered for every stage of business owner, from those launching their first business, to those pushing tens of millions in revenue quarterly.

This is a book I plan to come back to for a second read.

No nonsense

Such a great read, it’s hard to stop. Adam’s books are the kind that you find yourself reading/listening to over and over again. Very well written and an absolute wealth of knowledge!

Love it!

If you have never read anything on business you may learn something from here. BUT it is not nearly as easy as he makes it out to be.
I wish I could get my money back for this book.
