As a serious book nerd I have read a lot of books over the years. No seriously, my goal is to read 50 books at least- am I crazy, yeah a bit. But over the years there are a handful of books I have read over and over again and new books that I have stumbled upon that have changed the way I look at life. And you know me, I believe sharing is caring! So below I am sharing my all time favorite business books. No matter what business you are in, I promise you, these will benefit you in a 100 plus ways. Without further ado: 

1. Building A Story Brand– I am starting with my favorite. If you walked away with one book from this list THIS WOULD BE THE ONE. This book will transform the way you look at reaching your clients, building your website and overall bringing in business. It is a must read. 

1. Purple Cow– Talk about the Ultimate marketing book. This book makes you think outside of the box when it comes to stepping it up in your business. After reading this little gem, I changed the way I brought my clients in and OMG DID IT WORK. So if you are on the struggle bus when it comes to marketing, this book is for you. 

1. You are a Badass– Ok so technically this is not a business book. But it is a book about positivity, changing yourself as a person to reaching your goals and beliefs and lets face it, when you are in a hole in life, it is kind of hard to run a successful business. So if you want a book that blows your mind and way of thinking when it comes to your life and business, this is it. 

1. Atomic Habits– This one is a new one I stumbled across and EVERY WORD IS GOLD. You are honestly hooked from the first chapter and again while it technically is not a “business book”, it has SUCH good content about how to achieve things and break down your dreams and apply them into your life as habits so you reach where you want to go. I read this book twice within a month just to gobble up every single word. 

When it comes to your business, I believe in educating yourself in every way possible and books is one of my tops ways to gain some knowledge everyday. I hope these books help you on your journey and if you read any of them let me know what YOU think!
