Finish-of-12 months letter and why Entrepreneur’s Handbook is particularly related now greater than ever
Pricey Entrepreneur’s Handbook Group,
Like a lot of you, I set objectives yearly, together with for Entrepreneur’s Handbook.

Attain 275k followersAchieve 5 million views throughout all propertiesLaunch the Entrepreneur’s Handbook Podcast and Group occasions programsPublish a characteristic with Medium founder, Ev WilliamsCreate a Knowable courseStrengthen our partnership with Medium
I’m thrilled to report that we hit all of those, minus the follower depend objective (Medium did a purge of nonactive accounts mid-year that adjusted our numbers), along with a shock initiative: launching Crypto Handbook.
None of this is able to have been attainable with no sturdy group surrounding Entrepreneur’s Handbook, to whom I’m deeply grateful and want to thank:

Thanks each for the superb work.Tony Stubblebine, Scott Lamb, and Medium for being nice companions and creating and defending a incredible platform on which to publish our content material.Our readers.

The startup house has taken an fascinating flip just lately. The enterprise capital bubble has popped. Valuations are down. Funding is very scrutinized. Excessive rates of interest are shifting traders’ consideration away from dangerous startups and in the direction of extra conventional investments. The recession is clamping down on budgets, inflicting everybody to tighten their grip on their wallets.
These are the precise situations for which Entrepreneur’s Handbook was created. It’s how we began. The Handbook publishes classes on the way to begin a small enterprise, the way to bootstrap, the way to flip concepts into earnings, the way to create MVPs and take them from zero to at least one.
If ever there was a time to learn and research Entrepreneur’s Handbook, it’s this upcoming 12 months. It’s going to be a troublesome 12 months, however I stay up for doubling down on our mission of being devoted to serving to entrepreneurs succeed it doesn’t matter what.
Let’s make it an excellent 12 months.
