Entrepreneurship Elevated – The Self-Reliant Entrepreneur written by John Jantsch read more at Duct Tape Marketing

John Jantsch appears on the Entrepreneurship Elevated podcast to discuss his latest book, The Self-Reliant Entrepreneur, with host Mike Michalowicz.

Jantsch has worked with thousands entrepreneurs and small business owners and has owned his own business for thirty years. He believes that entrepreneurs are a positive force in the world, and he wanted to write a love letter to the entrepreneurial journey and spirit.

Counterintuitively, much of being a great entrepreneur is letting go–letting go of things you can’t control, people’s opinions of you, and the other things that distract us from doing our best work and following our purpose. This book is designed to help entrepreneurs trust themselves so fully that they can really show up and respond to the things that they can control.

To learn more about the book, hear Jantsch’s definition of self-reliance, and how to strike the balance between self-reliance and interconnectedness, check out this episode of the Entrepreneurship Elevated podcast.

John Jantsch appears on School for Startups Radio with host Jim Beach to discuss his latest book, The Self-Reliant Entrepreneur.

This book is unlike most others that are written for entrepreneurs. Rather than creating a book that needs to be read cover-to-cover (and inevitably ends up in the growing stack of books you’d like to get to someday), Jantsch designed The Self-Reliant Entrepreneur to be a daily devotional. Every page has a different entry for each day of the year. Entrepreneurs are encouraged to incorporate this book into their daily routine, so that they can get a little bit of guidance on their journey all throughout the year.

On this podcast, Jantsch discusses the authors that inspired him to write this book, how his entrepreneurial journey has shifted over the years, and he shares an entry from the book. Check it out!

Conversations on Kansas Public Radio – The Self-Reliant Entrepreneur

Conversations on Kansas Public Radio – The Self-Reliant Entrepreneur written by John Jantsch read more at Duct Tape Marketing

John Jantsch appears on Conversations with host Dan Skinner on Kansas Public Radio to discuss his lastest book, The Self-Reliant Entrepreneur.

Jantsch is a marketing expert who founded his own firm three decades ago. While he’s written five other books that serve as marketing how-tos, this book is instead a “why-to” not just for marketers, but entrepreneurs of any stripe.

Entrepreneurs need to be self-reliant: When you run your own business, you must trust yourself enough to stay true to your dream and not worry about what others say you must do. This is the essence of Ralph Waldo Emerson’s essay, “Self-Reliance,” and it’s that essay (and the body of literature written by other transcendentalist authors of the 1800s) that serve as inspiration for Jantsch’s book. He sees the transcendentalists as leading the first counter-culture movement in the United States, and because he feels that spirit aligns so closely with the entrepreneurial journey, he’s used literature from that period as a jumping-off point for his daily devotional, The Self-Reliant Entrepreneur.

To learn more about the book, the transcendentalist works that inspired Jantsch, and his reasons for writing it, check out this episode of Conversations.

Banking on KC Podcast – The Self-Reliant Entrepreneur

John Jantsch stops by the Banking on KC podcast and sits down with host Kelly Scanlon to discuss his latest book, The Self-Reliant Entrepreneur.

When some folks hear the term “self-reliance,” they think that means going it alone. And while those who are self-reliant certainly do know how to trust themselves and have faith in their own decisions, they are not solitary people. No entrepreneur can build a great business without lots of support, and so this book reframes the idea of self-reliance to help you understand that what it’s really about is deepening your mind, body, and spirit connection and using that to learn to trust yourself while still relying on input from others.

Jantsch talks more about the philosophy behind the concept of self-reliance and what all of that has to do with entrepreneurship in this podcast episode. Follow the link below to give it a listen!
