Attract and Feed a Hungry Crowd: How Thinking like a Chef can Help you Build a Solid Business

Rate this book
Inspired by Seth Godin's "Linchpin," this book takes a closer look at why and how every small business owner can break away from the competition by thinking like a Chef ("not a cook or bottle washer").

With so many "gurus" on the internet selling roadmaps and recipes that guarantee big success, it's time to refocus on your right brain, your creative side, the part of you that invents, connects others and makes remarkable things happen. These ten guidelines help entrepreneurs remember how to do things with a rulebook.

Every new business owner wants to find and feed a hungry crowd. This short little book helps you build a solid foundation and focus on what matters.

Love this from the last page: "The status quo doesn't need your help. Our world craves visionaries and innovators and people who aren't afraid to forge new paths. We need you to create an epic tale with your life that inspires us all to reach beyond mediocrity." Great book, very inspirational and easy to follow steps to find your secret sauce!

When I read a book, I can always detect the author who is truly a "word chef". These authors know how to use the English language in a way that educates, persuades and inspires. They know how to inspire change. This book is a real feast of good things that every entrepreneur should be hungry for.

Ms. Silvestre did an outstanding job of stating her case for originality and creativity. She emphasized that we can use the recipes of other chefs when we are learning, but we must create our own original "signature dishes" if we are going to be competitive and successful in the business world.

The author includes a very good Reading List of marketing books at the end of this book. These books should be on the "Must Read" list of all entrepreneurs.

"Attract and Feed a Hungry Crowd" is only 60 pages long but it packs the punch of a much longer book. I emphatically recommend this book to all entrepreneurs and anyone interested in marketing their product or cause. This book will fill you with a delicious feast of knowledge and inspiration.

This was an amazing read! There are so many awesome tips throughout. And Tea even added a great reading list at the end! Looks like I will be adding some of these to my "to read" list ;)

I love how she says to "think creatively, work passionately and make yourself indispensable to your customers and community." -- This is hard for so many of us who are trying to build small businesses, especially us stay-at-home or work-at-home Moms. Tea is an inspiration! And I am in the processes of working through the 9 Steps to find my Secret Sauce.
