Welcome to Audio Business Books.net

Hello and welcome to Audio Business Books.net.

The purpose of this site is to give you the small business owner a helping hand in growing your own business by providing you with timely information about growing a business in the real world and on-line, as well as providing you with useful tips and strategies that you can put to work in your business right away.

Every week I will be discussing various business related topics and strategies, and offering solutions and recommendations to help you gain and maintain a competitive advantage. I will also be recommending my favourite business audio books on the particular topic under discussion, for those of you who want to learn more about the topic itself and get better understanding of the area that is being discussed.

So why do I recommend audio business books to help grow your business?

Well, first of all because I believe they work. Let me tell you why. From personal experience, I would often struggle to find the time to sit down and get through many of the business books that were sat on my book shelf, simply because there always seemed to be something more important on my daily “to do” list.

You know, serving clients, creating products, managing accounts and maybe if have some time left over, squeeze some of that stuff we call “marketing” in there.

I’m sure you can relate!

So when I finally ordered my first self development audio book recording on CD many years back, by Brian Tracy if I can remember correctly, I quickly realized the potential and convenience of audio learning.

Sure audio learning has been around for many years now, but since the introduction of mp3 technology, the opportunity to increase one’s own knowledge on the move has increased dramatically.

You see, we live in an exciting time and with the explosion of the downloadable audio books market, you no longer even have to visit your local book store or library to pick up your favourite book in CD format. Just click a few buttons and your next business audio book is downloaded straight to your computer or mp3 player!

And if that wasn’t a good enough, if you’re into time management, then the ability to listen to digital audio books and plough through large amounts of information, whilst also performing other non-technical tasks (such as cleaning, eating or even exercising) is absolutely priceless!

Business Audio Book Review: The 5 Most Important Questions You Will Ever Ask About Your Organization by Peter F. Drucker Management Theorist

“The 5 Most Important Questions You Will Ever Ask About Your Organization” by Peter F. Drucker is a very unique business audio book, in the sense that it is not your typical business start-up audio that simply regurgitates the same information you might get from your typical business advice bureau.

Instead it forces the listener to focus on the fundamentals running a successful business, by discussing only the 5 most important questions they must ask themselves.

And whilst this unabridged digital audio book does not go into great detail about all the aspects of running a business, I feel this is where its strength lies, as it does not over complicate things and rather ensures that the listener remembers the fundamentals during every critical stage of their business.

Here are some of the questions that are examined during the audio book: Read the rest of this entry »

How to Get Rich by Felix Dennis Audiobook Review

In this unabridged audio book, British multi-millionaire entrepreneur Felix Dennis describes his account of how to get rich, or at least the process of how he became rich. Many of the principles he talks about are quite contrary to common business advice, but perhaps that is why he is a multi-millionaire where most other so called business “experts” aren’t.

Unlike a simple list of instructions of how to get rich, this is a story that details the ups and downs of going from rags to riches. His blunt and in your face personality might not necessarily be to everyone’s taste, but if you are able to look beyond this, you are in for some true business gems of wisdom.

Audiobook Review: Feel The Fear And Do It Anyway By Susan Jeffers

In her thought provoking and potentially life changing audio book bestseller, Dr. Susan Jeffers teaches individuals how to overcome deep seated fears and break through old, limiting thought patters.  The methods that she teaches are easy to apply and can produce remarkable results in a short period of time.

First off she identifies fear as simply a state of mind and that the number one underlying cause of fear is usually associated to the unfounded belief that we could not handle whatever it is that we are afraid of.

She then explains that many of these beliefs are simply a result of the things we were taught during childhood. Read the rest of this entry »

Audio Business Books reviews: Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill

This audio book has been adapted from the original classic written back in 1937 and has not lost any of its original value. Being an unabridged version of the original bestseller, it still contains all the timeless information that can only be described as gold dust by the modern entrepreneur.

From setting goals and using the art of auto-suggestion, to becoming financially free and getting whatever it is you desire in life, Think and Grow Rich is without a doubt the benchmark against which all other personal growth and audio business books are measured.

The author, Napoleon Hill, gained his wealth of knowledge by interviewing and studying over 500 of the most successful and wealthy individuals of his time. Read the rest of this entry »
