Episode 025 - John Williams
Screw Work Break Free: How to Launch Your Own Money-Making Idea in
30 Days.
Bestselling author, Ideas Lab founder and career coach John
Williams believes that the traditional 9-5 job model is outdated
and is no longer the safest form of employment, and he has devoted
nearly a decade to coaching people, wanting to start their own
business, community project or enterprise, in the best way to craft
a business from conception to launch, and beyond.
First, using his quick 3-step technique you'll find a killer
business idea and then you'll follow John's tried-and-tested
30-programme to launch it as quickly as possible – with minimal
risk, expenditure and time. In fact, John encourages you not to
spend a penny, or do anything drastic, like quit your job, until
you've made traction with your business, because his method is
designed to develop first as a side project until you're ready to
go bigger – a bit like Mark Zuckerberg developing the first version
of Facebook while he was studying for his finals.
Drawing on ground breaking research, approaches and case studies
that range from Silicon Valley enterprises to non-profit
organisations, including ETSY, Air B'n'B, Facebook and Mashable, in
Screw Work Break Free John provides crucial insights into corporate
cultures, both good and bad, and offers a blueprint for
establishing and launching a successful business.
John's first book Screw Work Let's Play: How to do what you love &
get paid for it was a UK bestseller, recommended by the Sunday
Times, and now in Screw Work Break Free he offers a radically
different approach to business management and entrepreneurial
thinking than most business books, as it is designed to help you
quickly find a viable business idea and then walks you through the
steps to launching it in 30-days.
