I have a BIG announcement...

Author: Nick Huber April 29, 2025 Duration: 2:13

My book, "The Sweaty Startup" is out TODAY.
I worked on it for 18 months.

You can buy it here:
https://amzn.to/4aWyrAF

It's the how-to business guide I wish I had when building my first business.
Most business books have 2–3 gold nuggets total. I aimed for 2–3 per page.
This is a short, concise guide on how to:
– Pick a business idea
– Grow that business
– Out-operate your competition

Sales, hiring, management, delegation, and more — with 30+ untold stories from my own experience and people in my network on how to get rich.

Live Book Signing
I'm hosting a live book signing in Athens on May 8th at 6pm at Barnes and Noble.
