A timely reminder that, as entrepreneurs, we never stop learning. Garry has created a brilliant and comprehensive guide to growing and scaling a business. I love how you can dip in and out of relevant chapters depending on the most pressing challenge within your business at that time. The book is packed full of useful frameworks, personal suggestions and easy-to-follow bullet points; it’s like having your own non-exec with you all day, every day.

Speaking about ‘Simplify to Succeed’. “I have know Garry for over 20 years. If you want to know how to be successful in your career and/or your business, this book is for you. Order it today !”
Don Klock, Adjunct Professor, Rutgers Business School, NY
Just received a copy of the book ‘Simplify to Succeed’ by Garry Mansell. In his book Garry provides phenomenal insights to build, scale and sell your business.
There are many so-called ‘I help you create a 7-figure’ business guru’s out there, however Garry is the real deal because he walked the talk.
After leaving a successful job, he set up a completely new business, merged it with another and eventually sold it.
Can’t think of a better expert than him. So, if you’re new to building, scaling or selling your business, buy his book. You can thank me later…
