August was a busy month. I finished one book this month, but the book was amazing. Build the Damn Thing by Kathryn Kinney is a keeper.

Finney, an investor and startup champion, provides the insight and expertise needed to build a business from the ground up. She discusses the intimate details ranging from developing a business plan to finding investors, growing a team, and refining a product.

She gives the advice on the good, the bad, and the ugly as she empowers entrepreneurs. She advises and reminds entrepreneurs at all stages to to take advantage of their unique networks and resources. One of the best things about the books is the direct advice and insight for black people and people of color, especially for investors who say “they just don’t do black women/people/etc.”

Excellent book. Highly recommend. This book should be on the shelves of entrepreneurs everywhere as a business strategy reference guide.
