Hello My Lovelies,
I have a question(s) for you…
Do you trust me?
Do you trust the SuperPost Sunday recommendations that I have for you here every week?
Do you trust my overall judgement to be a pretty good one in general?
Since the time you’ve been reading nittyGriddy, have I ever purposely mislead you or lied to you to gain monetary value (or something) in return?
I’m hoping you had 3 Yes’s and a No – in that order! If you did, I”m going to ask you to trust me again today.
Danny Brown & The Parables of Business
When Danny sent me an advanced copy of his latest eBook, The Parables of Business, I couldn’t help but smile and feel proud that I was included in his “circle of friends” and someone he trusts and respects enough to read his words of wisdom and timeless advice.
THANK YOU DB :D.
If you’re wondering whether I’m biased or not, allow me to answer that for ya…
Damn straight I’m biased!
And you would be too if you knew Danny Brown as a friend, blogger and Marketing professional. But me being biased, doesn’t change the fact that this eBook is one of the most captivating things I’ve read to date. And I read it in one go, as I’m sure you will too WHEN you get your hands on it.
What It’s About
As Danny himself mentioned, The Parables of Business is not your “typical” business eBook.
It doesn’t lecture you with monotonous clichés of tips and tricks on the best ways to run your business. It doesn’t revolve around the simple successes of others. And it doesn’t feed you regurgitated crap from known “guru’s” and other non-sense types that you’re bound to forget as soon as you’re done reading.
It’s much more than that. And what you’ll read, you won’t forget!
It’s Danny’s business advice and messages told through the timeless art of storytelling.
It’s a compilation of 11 beautiful and memorable parables narrated through Danny’s unique style and authentic voice – each one bringing you in and leaving you with an ‘aha’ moment; each one reminding you or teaching you how old-school mindsets, values and wisdom can help you pave the road to achieving your goals and succeeding in today’s business environment.
Inside you will find tales about collaboration, change, brand building and loyalty, entrepreneurship, overcoming adversity and inconceivable obstacles, gaining trust and more…
Regardless of your industry, your status, your knowledge or know-how…this eBook WILL teach you something. It WILL inspire you and make you re-think of how you’re doing things, whether online or off.
What I Loved
I think the question is, what didn’t I love?! And in all honesty – nothing!
From the cover to the acknowledgments – it was superb!
I know how that may sound, but it’s true. Each of the 11 stories will hook you, from start to finish.
My only disappointment is that the eBook itself wasn’t longer. I didn’t want the stories to end. I wanted more…a 12th, a 13th…
Actually, I have another disappointment and it’s the same as Dino’s. I too wish there was a hardcover edition of this book. I would definitely buy it as a gift for friends and I would of course want a signed (handwritten) copy for myself from Danny.
But then again…those don’t count much as disappointments.
All I know is that I would love for Danny to publish tome 2.
To tell you that I didn’t have a few favorite chapters, would be a lie. But I don’t want to ruin it for you, so I’ll give you a small bite of what to expect.
“The Boy with the Bread”
If you can read this story and not choke up a little or feel something, then you’re stronger than I am.
The story – so powerful and real – convinced me that it had to be true.
Kindness and compassion are innate and do in fact prevail. Appreciation and reciprocation will find you when you deserve it; when you’ve earned it.
That nameless boy does exist…he’s out there somewhere, and a part of him is in each one of us. Call me silly, but I wanted this story to be the script to an upcoming movie. THAT’s how vivid the imagery is! And THAT’s how wise the moral of it is.
If you’re human, I guarantee that you’ll be touched by this wonderful piece and that you’ll agree with the message that Danny so eloquently delivers.
Why You Should Get It, Read It & Read It Again
ARE YOU SERIOUS?!!!
Do you really need more reasons that the one’s I already mentioned?
I didn’t think so!
Frickin’ Disclaimer:
This is my opinion and mine alone – although you will find that many others share similar feelings about Danny and his eBook. I know you believe me but just in case you have a tiny bit of unreasonable doubt, you can read these other reviews by OUR friends John Falchetto, Frank Dickinson and Dino Dogan.
Danny Brown did NOT ask me (with that lady-killer accent of his), beg me (on his knees, standing or perched from a tree branch wearing nothing but a kilt and bow tie around his neck) or pay me (in Dollars, Rubles or Bonsai trees) to write this little review or promote his masterpiece in any way. He’s simply guilty of being the exceptional man, friend and mentor that he is – brilliant, kind and genuine.
You can purchase a copy of the 36 page eBook for $15 USD via PayPal or credit card at the E-junkie store (nope…not an affiliate link).
Note to Loyal Readers:
I know that when you normally visit on Sunday’s you’re greeted with snarky stories and witty words of Social Media wisdom followed by a mammoth list of links to kick-ass articles. And though I did have a roundup prepared for you this week, there’s only ONE recommendation that I really wanted to share with you – and that is…
