A little secret about getting free business books

Posted at 8:04 on Friday January 19, 2007 | Filed Under Personal entrepreneurship

Here's how you can get free business books.

Last August, I wrote about Brandon McNamara's site, BizBookTalk.com, a site that reviews business books (see my Friday Entrepreneurs post about BizBookTalk). Since then, he tells me, traffic has quadrupled, they've hired book reviewers, and they've started giving away free books every Friday.

Today, they're giving away Made to Stick, a book that's getting a lot of attention. I already added a comment to try to win. Check it out: http://www.bizbooktalk.com.

Update: Damn. After I posted this, the latest BizBookTalk post went from 5 comments to 111. I better still win my book!!!

Ramit, there is another site out there that does the same thing, except they give a business book away every business day of the week. I've won 8 books from them so far in the past 6 months or so. However, I am not telling you what it is, because I don't want my odds to decrease. Keep up the amazing work though!

Ramit,


I just got an e-mail letting me know that I won a free copy of the book! Thank you so much for telling me about this giveaway. I did mention (in my reply e-mail with my shipping address) that I had found their website because of you. So I hope that makes you feel better, even if you don't win a book.
