Start Something That Matters
(Spiegel
& Grau, 2011)
By
Blake Mycoskie
In
2006, Blake Mycoskie traveled to Argentina to take some time off from his
fourth startup and explore the culture of another country. What he found was a
great need among children’s charities for shoes. Mycoskie knew he had to help,
and the idea for TOMS shoes was born. The concept for the company is simple:
Sell a pair of shoes today, give a pair of shoes to a child in need tomorrow.
Mycoskie shares with readers lessons learned while creating TOMS, how to
develop and tell your company’s story, and how to be resourceful without having
resources.
Inspirational Quote:
"You
don't have to have a lot of money, a complicated business plan, or a great deal
of experience to start something."
-- Blake Mycoskie
