What a Paperboy Learned About Business
What do Warren Buffett, Sean Combs, Tom Brokaw, Walt Disney, and Jerry Seinfeld all have in common? Their first businesses were their paper routes. In Rain , bestselling author Jeffrey Fox brings to life his "rainmaker" business practices in an engaging fable that is destined to become a business classic.
RAIN is the first business parable written by bestselling business book author Jeffrey J. Fox. The parable follows a young New England paperboy, named Rain, as he learns the business of being in business and quickly becomes the best paperboy in town.
Through a series of humorous poignant vignettes, Jeff illustrates forty "rainmaker" business lessons that can be applied to not only paperboys, but anyone in business and sales. Rain's time as a paperboy proves to be just as valuable as getting an MBA.
As with Jossey-Bass' popular Lencioni business fables, the format for Rain includes an actionable business model at the end of the book with instant takeaways and practical advice.
