'Simply revolutionary! The Rhythm of Business is one of the rare business books that understands the soul of a revolutionary idea. Jeffrey Shuman disciplines, but doesn't extinguish, the radical, rule-breaking instincts of pure entrepreneurship. Armed with The Rhythm of Business, and guided by the trends we've developed at BrainReserve, entrepreneurs can calibrate their dreams for maximum success.'
Faith Popcorn, author, Clicking and The Popcorn Report

'Jeffrey Shuman has taken what was once the realm of instinct and intuition and put it in a framework that anyone can understand and follow. I highly recommend The Rhythm of Business to anyone who wants to start and grow a business. Very few business books deliver on what they promise. The Rhythm of Business is one of those few.'
