If you're going to grow your business beyond just yourself, you have to learn to lead people. The best book I've read on leadership (so far) is:
"The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership: Follow Them and People Will Follow You" by John C. Maxwell.

It's a great read with lots of hands-on exercises and practical advice for building your personal leadership skills.

Also check out:
"Ready, Fire, Aim: Zero to $100 Million in No Time Flat" by Michael Masterson.

Chapter Four, "The Supremacy of Selling", is a compelling, eye-opening, and (for me at least), paradigm-shifting essay on why you should focus less on building and perfecting your products and services, and instead spend WAY more time letting others know about them. Get the book for that chapter alone.

There is a much more complete list of recommendations on my site at RoadmapsToSUCCESS.com - Entrepreneurship Books.

Regards,
Dan
