Interesting read.

This book gives an insight into the thinking of "millionaire mindset" but to be fair it gives an insight into why people start their own businesses, what motivates them and how these people stay in profit for the years that they are in business, whether millionaire or not. The first week of the course is pretty basic and goes through what it "takes" to be a "millionaire", what characteristics they have,their motivations and how they view failures.

The audio is set up in sound bites with the author interpreting their points of view in between. Unfortunately it is speckled with annoying music and I'm not entirely sure if the sound bites are in the context of the questions asked. I'm not sure because the author uses the sound bites repeatedly to prove his various points through out the for weeks in different area. Had the set up been more like an interview I think readers could have gotten more from listening as we would know the questions and the answers.

The workbook that comes with the download is extremely basic and only has one exercise per day and to be honest if you are interested in business or setting up a business you'll have already thought of the questions asked. With that said however it's certainly no harm in writing them out. It only takes 20mins to do all the exercises and may refresh your memory or give you some ideas.

Listening to people who have gone through the experience of setting up a business is always worthwhile whether they are millionaires or not. You can always learn from someone's else's mistakes and lets face it... it's cheaper to do so. The people interviewed certainly are experienced and have good advice for prospective business owners.

Overall I think the idea of the book is really good, it has good advice and it's certainly worth a listen. I do feel, however, that the author could have done a better job in it's presentation and I wouldn't class this as an MBA at all really, more food for thought really.

well worth listening to

I bought the original CD version years ago. As relevant and impactful today as it was back then.

interesting course only just starting out..

This is a very interesting piece of work and the content is excellent.. the only thing that lets this down is the very irritating 80's keyboard sounding music between modules.. I always have to turn it down as it seems to go on forever. What were you thinking of Mr Parkes Cordock????? Excellent work but would have got another 2 stars on the rating if it was not for the terrible music edited into the programme.

Millionaire MBA Business Mentoring Programme

Simply put the Millionaire MBA should be standard reading for those that are either in business or thinking about going into business. It offers good solid, real world applicable advice that is easy to absorb and implement. It is delivered in a very pleasant format that inspires focus, confidence and good business acumen. I would highly recommend these titles to those wishing to gain a high quality, up to date real world competitive edge in business today. A truly outstanding piece of work.

No workbook to download

This series of training programme costs a lot more if bought on CD, but there is a catch with buying it via Audible as a download - the course refers to an accompanied workbook on a regular basis, every chapter to be precise, and by downloading this, you won't get the workbook and therefore misses out on a supposedly important part of the programme.

The advice given seems sensible and are in line with other business / life training books and courses.

Compulsive listening !

This is a must-read for anyone thinking of starting a venture, or anyone who has already done it. The interviews with real enterpreneurs are fascinating, and the 'anyone can do it' theme voiced by Duncan Bannatyne in this and later weeks is great encouragement, whatever stage you're at.

Excellent ? Advice from real entrepeneurs

The difference with this programme is the amount of time that is spent listening to actual well known (some more so than others) entrepreneurs. Not only is the advise useful but the story's they have to tell are often interesting and thought provoking,

I have enjoyed listening to week 1 and have downloaded the workbook and I am looking forward to the other weeks which I now plan to get.

Hear it from the horse's mouth

This is an outstanding product, quite distinct from anything else on the market, presenting in their own words the attitudes, experiences, views and advice of 25 of the most successful entrepreneurs in the UK. These are people who have 'walked the walk' and are supremely qualified to 'talk the talk'.
The highlights for me are the conviction and enthusiasm conveyed by each contributor with every word, and the breadth of background, personality and experience which they represent.
This breadth makes it much easier to imagine yourself becoming one of them as you will recognize some of your own personality traits and experiences among such a wide range of people, and helps to dispel the myth that there is only one type of 'Entrepreneur Personality' the lack of which prevents you from achieving success in your own business.
If you are feeling an inclination to start your own business or simply want to build a more positive, can-do attitude then this is excellent value for money.

What every would-be entrepreneur is looking for

If, like me, you you have read and listened to numerous books / cd's on the subject and still been left with many unanswered questions, then this is the program for you. Richard has included a wealth of information with real life examples and advice from highly successful people.

The program is full of ideas and information you just don't find in other text books and cd's. I've had more business ideas in the past week than at any other time in my life and I've only completed week 1 !!

If you are interested in this subject then this is the course for you. Highly recommended, 5 stars.

Great core material - unimpressed by

I've found the core material fantastic and very inspirational. The quotes and insights from the entrepreuners are refreshingly frank - you'll hear no 'get-rich-quick' nonesense here.
It's worth it for the core material alone, and to be honest I couldn't understand why the bonus material was there. The 'Millionaire Mentality' seems to be incongruous alongside the studied approach of the Millionaire MBA material. I found the bonus material to be quite sickening to be honest. Full of avarice and 'get rich quick' types of sound bites. It was also full of repetition and seemed to be virtually devoid of real content or advice.
That whole section will soon be deleted from my audio player - I'll just stick with the core stuff thank you very much!
