Smartcuts reviews
“As fascinating as it is fun, Smartcuts is an engaging journey through the types of lateral thinking and creative strategies that so often underlie success.”
–Maria Konnikova, The New Yorker
“Smartcuts is surprising and awesome. It’s Malcolm Gladwell meets Tim Ferriss. Part Good to Great, part McGuyver, this is a book every 21st century entrepreneur should read.”
–Scott Gerber, founder of YEC
“[Smartcuts] is a manifesto for success for those who do not want to toil away unnoticed.”
–The Financial Times
“Smartcuts solves a major mystery, illuminating how visionaries and pioneers find faster ways to achieve their goals. With spellbinding stories and relevant research, Shane Snow has delivered one of the most entertaining and thought-provoking books of the year.”
–Adam Grant, author of Give & Take
“Shane is living proof that Smartcuts work. He hacked his way into Fast Company, Wired and Ad Age, built a multi-million dollar startup by age 30, and now he’s written his first of what I’m sure will be many excellent books. Follow this guy!”
–Ryan Holiday, author of Ego Is The Enemy
