The $100 startup

Book • 2012
In this book, Chris Guillebeau shares insights from 1,500 individuals who have built businesses earning $50,000 or more from minimal investments.

He focuses on 50 intriguing case studies, highlighting how people with no special skills turned their passions into profitable ventures.

The book emphasizes the importance of finding the intersection between your expertise and what others are willing to pay for, and it provides practical advice on starting and growing a business without needing an MBA, a business plan, or employees.

Guillebeau stresses key principles such as the importance of action over planning and the value of selling solutions rather than teaching skills.
