People have often asked what books, podcasts, website, and entrepreneurs I recommend they follow. Well, here is my official list of recommended resources that will help you develop, create, and launch your brand, and live your American Dream. I try to keep this list updated as much as possible, so if you have any resources that you’d like added to this list (including yourself), feel free to email me. However, I do get a lot of requests so if you email me and I don’t respond immediately, please follow up until I do. Enjoy!
