 Great check-list for anyone starting a company. September 7, 2007
A great checklist and lots of advice for anyone thinking of starting a company.
Nothing revolutionary, perhaps nothing you wouldn't have thought of yourself, but there is great value in having a well thought-out, complete, list like this.
Only 4 stars because the book seems biased towards venture-funded companies.

Written like he was delivering a speech, Guy Kawasaki has made this an enjoyable and interesting read. All the time I was turning the pages, I kept feeling that much of what he wrote applied to life, and not just starting a business. When I got to the final chapter, "The Art of Being a Mensch", I discovered why I had gotten that feeling - much of Kawasaki's business approach emanates from his way of being in life. Read it for thoughts on how to live; read it for its humor, read it for advice - but do read it! Dennis DeWilde, Author of The Performance Connection.
Great book for starting anything important in life. August 23, 2007

This book was so easy to read, and just made sense. If you looking to start anything in life that you have not done before, read this book, it will help a lot.

If you are planning to start up, don't think again. Just read this book, close your eyes, and..... jump. This one is just as good as Eightstorm: 8-Step Brainstorming for Innovative Managers.
The Art of the Start is a great start.... August 4, 2007
The Art of the Start is a great book because it gives a comprehensive overview to starting a business. I recommend it to all my early stage and start up clients. It has a strong focus on raising venture money, which is often critical for a start up. I supplement the recommendation with my own book, Lies Start Ups Tell Themselves to Avoid Marketing which picks-up on the marketing overview that Kawaski provides and delivers in-depth, step-by-step details on implementing your marketing. Because, as every failed start up knows, once you have the money, you have to produce.
