This is a list, frankly a fairly short but sweet list, of books that I have personally read about business. These are frameworks, guides, and principles that are worth knowing. •Measure What Matters by John Doerr and Larry Page This book has proven not only useful for business owners, but also employees as well. I heard of this book from my coworkers who found its frameworks to be a huge help in the productivity of their specific roles. This book dives into what the metrics measured were of great fast growing businesses of the 70s to today. Ones like Google, Microsoft, and 48 more that you’ve sure heard of. https://www.audible.com/pd/B07BMHFBCM?source_code=ASSORAP0511160006&share_location=pdp •Blitzscaling by Reid Hoffman, Chris Yeh, and Bill Gates - foreword This book was recommended to me personally by founder and CEO of EverlightSolar Will Creech. We were talking about the challenges of scaling businesses and he differed the majority of the conversation to what he had learned in this book. It is long but it is packed full of valuable practical knowledge. Will Creech credits this book for turning his Midwest solar company into the 9 figure industry shaker that it is today. Must read. https://www.audible.com/pd/B07DJZB9YN?source_code=ASSORAP0511160006&share_location=pdp •100M Dollar Offer by Alex Hormozi This book is one of the best I’ve seen. This was the foundation of the success I found in commercial window cleaning. This book walks you through exactly how to make an offer so good that it would be mad for a prospect not to say yes. I’ve done some tough sales before, but once I implemented this book into my offer structure it made selling like taking orders for my business. Alex Hormozi is a legend. https://www.audible.com/pd/B09BK57L5W?source_code=ASSORAP0511160006&share_location=pdp

This is a list of books most of which that I have personally read and implemented. A couple of these have been recommended to me enough that I have purchased them but have yet to finish. A lot of these I’ve read alongside my coworkers while I was working at Everlight Solar, and have had great conversations about the books, stories, principles, and effective implementation. Leave a comment if you have any questions or curiosities on these books or just want to talk about resources you’ve found helpful yourself! •Can’t Hurt Me by David Goggins Explores the power of will to transform and save the individual.
