I am also an Audible person and look forward to diving in to these books. I've read 7 habits every year for almost 20 years. Each time I tweak one more aspect of who I am...great stuff. Thank you. You Rock Lady!

I love that you not only read these books, but that you put their teaching into action and saw results come from it! That's the way to do it! Cheers!

Thank you, I've not read any except the last one so will add them to my reading list. Recommendations like this are always so helpful!

you really started from the bottom now you here I'm proud of you keep up the good work...

I love all the books you recommended. I love books! I love reading books. Before I dreamt of writing my own book and with all the hard work and patience of managing my affiliate marketing business, it came true. These books you shared are all amazing. Have read some and I can attest that it is very helpful and motivating.

Awesome! I've been slacking on my book reading recently with work being crazy, but I'll definitely have to check these titles out!

Absolutely love your videos and enjoy your personality in every one of them :-) I appreciate the book recommendations so much, thank you! ♥️

Thank you! Insightful and concise! Inspirational as well. I need to get focused!

Great suggestions! I think the only one I've heard of and have is The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People - Stephen Covey. Looking forward to checking out the other books on your list!

So happy I found you! I tell everyone about your channel!!

OH MY GOODNESS!!! I was just looking for good summer reads TODAY! This is not the first time it's felt like you're somehow reading my mind. HAHA!! I adore your channel and have found so many of your videos super helpful. Thank you for all the work you do!

It looks like The Personal MBA will be the next book for me - Thank-you very much for telling me about it!

Thanks Gillian! Added some of these to my audible wishlist 😁. I just finished listening to the audiobook for Mel Robbins "5 Second Rule" and holy sh*t I loved it!!! It's a super easy listen all about taking action and outsmarting your mind 💪🏻 Truly amazing!

A great Combination of beauty with brain with extra ordinary confidence I would like to thank you for the depth of my heart for such a amazing recommendation If you elaborate a little bit summary it would be great for new members. Thank you

Your books are different from usual suspects so thanks for heads up. Oren Klaff (Pitch Anything) has a new one out...Flip the Script. Keep up the sterling work GP... splendid content as always 👍

The Art of War is a must read at most B-schools. BTW, formal training is a combination of reading books and taking courses (online or in class). What “formal” training/teaching does is structure the courses and books in a way and an order where they complement each other into a workable knowledge to incorporate all the teachings to be successful. Not to mention, you have to meet a certain standard (grades).

Thank you for the book list!! Any books on how to create cash flow?

Love it. Thanks

Hey Gillian, great video! Thank you for the recommendations

Very good books. Really helpful to grow your business and change the way you think in a positive way. 😉

You explain best, really I meam there are people who understands good, but in compare to most you explain simly and best

I love Get Rich Lucky Bitch by Denise Duffield-Thomas, it’s more about money blocks and creating a first class life style. I’m also just starting She Means Business, by Carrie Green, which gets good reviews. Thanks for sharing your top books, lots that I’ve not heard of and have now gone on the wish list 😀

Really helpful

Thanks for the advice from a Solopreneur

Great video thanks. Quick technical question, for someone reading these books or more, what is your method of organization, summarizing or referencing that you use, to ensure the efficiency in grasping the book content. For instance summarizing can take a long time, simple reading (while enjoyable) but can make us forget certain tools whenever we need to pull a technique or a skill and use in the real world. Any ideas here that can save time and yet maximize reading efficiency. Thanks!

Amazing thanks

How Children Learn by John Holt changed the way I see learning and made me a better mother.

Crisp and to the point.

Thank you for sharing your list. I recommend The Success Principles by Jack Canfield. I found that it had a lot of great ideas/information for all aspects of life including, but not limited to, growing a business.

Nice video What online courses u took to improve your business as you mention in your video

I use Traction for clients on a regular basis. The closest to developing a Quality Management System on a smaller scale and simple for micro businesses. Next to put on your list is The Ultimate Question about measuring customer retention and referrability - very different from measuring customer satisfaction

Great video! Actually an original list compared to most videos like this

Best books so far: Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki, The One Thing by Gary Keller, The Emyth by Michael Gerber and Maximum Achievement by Brian Tracey. Each one of these I feel was a truly transformational book in terms of how you look at business and entrepreneurship.

I'm sure this question was already asked but what one of those books would you suggest to buy first for someone just starting their business planning? I'm definitely going to get the last of the books (7 Habits).

Thanks, Gillian

I recommend also The One Thing by Garry Keller and Real Life Money

Hello! I love your channel! I love reading but get caught up with the day to day life struggles. I squeeze it in as much as possible. Judging by your channel, I believe you have a lot more going on than I do. When do you find the the time or which days do you set aside for reading/incorporate reading into you busy schedule? I’m not too much of a fan of audio books. Just curious so I could maybe apply your time management into my own life. Sorry for the long run on comment :(

@gillianzperkins

I hear you! Here are three little suggestions: 1) I didn't like audiobooks either, until I really got into them. So maybe give them another try? I like to listen while I drive or do chores. 2) I generally read for ~15 minutes before bed. It's not a lot, but it's when I can most frequently fit it in. 3) Are there times you spend scrolling social media, browsing the internet, or watching tv/movies. If so, first identify WHEN. Then you'll be able to reclaim & repurpose that time for reading. Hope one of these suggestions is helpful!

You're as intelligent as you are beautiful (to my eyes). Keep it up!

Great book suggestions! I think the only one i've read so far is The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. I've got lots of reading to do! Have you read Mindset: The New Psychology of Success by Carol Dweck? It's not exactly business but super informative about the decisions we make and why.

Hey Gillian: This is a great little book that you should check out is "What To Do When The Wheels Come Off" It's funny, thought provoking and an easy read. It's not really a business book but it contains AWESOME modern proverb that can inspire anyone's life. I think it is still available on Amazon. Love your passion. Please let me know what you think. Thank you for your channel.

Thanks!

Thank-you for the great business book recommendations Gilian! I'm definitely intrigued by a few of them. I actually am a big fan of Russel Brunson and many of his internet marketing partners like Frank Kern, Ryan Levesque, Andy Jenkins, Mike Filsaime and the like. Ryan's book "Choose" that he just came out with is absolutely amazing at helping you figure out what market to go into that will stay profitable long term (and keep you happy to work in it!) But my all time FAVOURITE business book is Robert Kiyosaki's "Rich Dad, Poor Dad". He taught me how to take doing business to the next level by always building recurring passive income and never working in your business, but on it! Thanks again for another amazing dose of useful inspiration and motivation. Love your videos. You're such an awesome KZread and Internet Marketing Role Model!

Its very useful video

Thanks for your great video! Recently, I came across a very interesting ebook from an author named Ollivier Mafaya. It's not very long, it's called "nonsense" and in a very straightforward way it tells about the cost of all business processes (marketing, employees, outsourcing, etc.) and how to go about it all. Interestingly, the author debunks various motivational myths in a very interesting way. It's available on Amazon, I'm ultra-curious about your opinion!

Thanks

Thanks so much for your highly useful list of business 📚. My favorite 📖 of all time is "Fortunes Formula" by William Poundstone. It is an investment book that you could use to help grow your money quickly and exponentially over the long term. It's my Bible, have read it seventeen times and counting. Take Care.

Don’t want to be a prick but do you run an actual business that generates direct goods/services with value or it’s more educational? Sorry but as an engineer I’d love to take advice but I also love to analyze, so if you’re telling me that those books will impact my business or businesses, did you apply them to yours and what were the exact results taking 1 example. Also, if it’s a blogging and “inspiration” business then please don’t bother since they’re less business and more education, and education isn’t a very good business in terms of scalability and % of the global business market. Thank you.
