Publisher's summary

Embark on the seven learning adventures to create a business from scratch.

This audiobook includes research on "who" is most likely to be successful in entrepreneurship across the 26 different personality factors. No hype. No BS. No fluff. This is a comprehensive book full of examples to draw from.

Start From Zero gives you the repeatable path to create a meaningful and profitable business without being dependent on any person, any platform, or anything. Learn about new research on the top personality traits pulled from 30 successful entrepreneurs. Learn by example from 15 employees who became entrepreneurs.

This is the only book that will show you how to successfully start from zero when you have nothing. Not even confidence. Start From Zero is the result of over 10 years of research, based on tested principles, with a methodology that will still be relevant a hundred years from now.

If you are frustrated with your income and earning potential, this book is for you. Start From Zero teaches you how to install the four brains you need to create income and scalable products from scratch. Whether you are a frustrated employee, a time-strapped business owner, or a curious 16-year-old wondering if you should attend college, Start from Zero delivers the goods.

My hope is this audiobook helps make entrepreneurship accessible to the entire world. I have personally helped thousands of people become free with this exact process. All of them started from zero. Many of them started as employees. You can be next.

Put these principles into practice for 90 days and learn the skills to make success more likely in any endeavor you choose!

Great but reads like one long run-on sentence

Love this book and it has really opened my mind. It reminds me of the feeling I got from reading Rich Dad Poor Dad, but this is way better and much more concrete.

With that said, I’m disappointed with the audio reading by Dane as he runs through the whole book without taking a breather, and it’s like one long run-on sentence, no stopping, no pausing between distinct thoughts and sections.

The printed book it much better.

My view of business creation has been destroyed!

The book was awesome. I chose the audio book because I am limited on time. It was like a drug, I couldn’t stop listening. Thanks Dane!

Gets into it

I most certainly enjoyed this book. The author really does a good job of getting into the details and explaining some of the steps that as an entrepreneur you should not take, or perhaps should take. I also enjoyed some of the references provided in this book. I do recommend it to all entrepreneurs.

Incredible… a MUST for all people!!!

Dane has a remarkable gift to tell stories! Listen to his book as I read it was amazing.

He has one of the purest hearts and I love his vulnerability!

I wish I would have read/listened to this the day I got the book but so happy I finally dived in.

Seriously do yourself a favor and get this, read this, and implement as much of this book as you can ASAP.

This book and Dane will change your life!!!

Now get out of here and go build something! :)

So incredibly impactful!

Excited to leave a review for this book. Dane brings vulnerability and authenticity to new heights. Through his sharing, he not only gives frameworks and structures to approach building a business from scratch, but he does it in a way that will allow you to reproduce the outcome that's personally meaningful. I really resonate with his approach. So good!

Real Usable Content! and some other stuff

The content is simple and immediately usable by just about anyone. There is a bit of a gap between finding a pain point and an executed solution, but kiddos for covering the fist steps as so many lose the reader with the first assumption that we already have a biz idea.

These ideas are phenomenal

This unique little book is dynamite and I will return to its brilliant concepts often. I got hooked this morning on the “Start from Zero” podcast and after binging a few episodes, I bought this audiobook because I wanted to hear about his philosophy on life in more depth. I have read hundreds of personal development and business books, and this one has so many ideas I have simply never heard.

I highly recommend listening to the podcast as well.

Solid, clear, high quality advice.

The scores on repeat 😵‍💫

Overall it’s a good book. The author had me question his integrity when he confessed to stealing from someone. But the content is pretty decent. Warning though, this audiobook reads Client scores over and over and over and over and over and over, I can get nauseating very quickly 😵‍💫
