An amusing and inspiring listen for wantrepreneurs, woulda-coulda-shouldas, or fans of Shark Tank!
Everyone loves spit-balling about business ideas and pitching to friends their half-baked, half-serious "million dollar idea" that they have little intention of ever actually pursuing. These ideas are entertaining to listen to and even more fun to debate. The Lazy Entrepreneur: 37 Half-Baked Million Dollar Ideas is a collection of these brilliant ideas all in one place, talked about and pitched in an entertaining way. Over 20 different contributors are featured in this collection that is sure to amuse and inspire with ideas like:
- DaycAir, an airline that devotes a portion of every plane to a professionally staffed, sound-proofed daycare seating and play area. Parents sit in front, unburdened by anxiety and alienation. Kids are in back, safe and sound, and free to act their age.
- The Wedding Tree, a decorative tree that celebrates the engagement and impending nuptials of a loving couple. This fabricated new wedding tradition is like the Christmas tree - wedding gifts accumulate under the tree as the big day gets closer and are finally opened once the couple is officially wed.
- Sleeping with Friends, a subscription bed linens service that delivers clean sheets directly to your home. Busy moms, lazy college students, and washer/dryer-less city dwellers will never have to wash their own sheets again!
- FaceSpace, a company that sells advertising on the pollution masks that people wear in China. Pollution masks are worn by over a billion people every day. That's a lot of valuable unused media real estate.
- ...and over 30 more!
"I often dream about starting my own company, until I realize how much work that would take," said practically everyone. The Lazy Entrepreneur is filled with real ideas from real people who aren't pursuing them. It's like listening to a season of Shark Tank!

Here, the FUBU founder and star of ABC's Shark Tank shows that, far from being a liability, broke can actually be your greatest competitive advantage as an entrepreneur. Why? Because starting a business from broke forces you to think more creatively. It forces you to use your resources more efficiently. It forces you to connect with your customers more authentically and market your ideas more imaginatively.

Why do some products get more word of mouth than others? Why does some online content go viral? Word of mouth makes products, ideas, and behaviors catch on. It's more influential than advertising and far more effective. Can you create word of mouth for your product or idea? According to Berger, you can. Whether you operate a neighborhood restaurant, a corporation with hundreds of employees, or are running for a local office for the first time, the steps that can help your product or idea become viral are the same.

Every marketer tells a story. And if they do it right, we believe them. We believe that wine tastes better in a $20 glass than a $1 glass. We believe that an $80,000 Porsche Cayenne is vastly superior to a $36,000 VW Touareg, which is virtually the same car. We believe that $225 Pumas will make our feet feel better, and look cooler, than $20 no-names... and believing it makes it true.

The first thing Sophia Amoruso sold online wasn’t fashion - it was a stolen book. She spent her teens hitchhiking, committing petty theft, and dumpster diving. By twenty-two, she had resigned herself to employment, but was still broke, directionless, and working a mediocre day job she’d taken for the health insurance. It was there that Sophia decided to start selling vintage clothes on eBay. Eight years later, she is the founder, CEO, and creative director of Nasty Gal, a $100 million plus online fashion retailer with more than 350 employees.

Big companies spend a fortune marketing their wares and services. Can yours? Invariably people ask advertising veteran and CBC Radio host Terry O'Reilly one question more than any other: How does a little business compete with the big guys? After decades at the helm of an award-winning advertising production company, and over a decade exploring the art and science of marketing for CBC Radio, O'Reilly delivers all the answers they - and anyone with something to sell - ever wanted to know.

There's a myth in our culture that to get ahead in sales, we have to be sharks - greedy, manipulative, and only out for number one. As business owners and creatives who lead with heart, that fear of appearing "salesy" stresses us out and holds us back. We assume that spending money is painful and feel guilty to ask our clients for more. The truth is, today's trading-up clients are not only willing to spend big, but they secretly want to. And there are more of them in your market than you think.

When Mark Rampolla filled a notebook with potential start-up ideas, his wife asked him some tough questions. What about this idea is exciting, beyond the possibility of a profit? How will it fit into a life that makes you and your family happy? How will it change the world? Eventually Mark found his great idea: coconut water. He had seen the developing world use coconut water, but this valuable resource was being discarded in the US. While taking on the beverage industry was a big goal - high-hanging fruit - it was worth the risk.

The best companies and most successful salespeople live by a three-word mantra - "it's all about them" - because when they relentlessly focus their brand on their customers instead of themselves, their businesses flourish. All About Them shows listeners how to use this simple but extremely powerful influencing technique. Bruce Turkel, who has advised some of the world's greatest companies, including American Express and Bacardi, lays the groundwork by relating his personal journey of discovery to the "All About Them" principle.
