Book Reviews of Sam Walton: Made in America
Book Review: The giant started small
Summary: 5 Stars
Even though Walmart is a giant now and feared by many small businesses, it started small by finding out what the customer wanted and giving it to them. I listen to this audio book over and over again and always come away with a new idea. This is one of the best books on building a business.
Summary of Sam Walton: Made in America
Meet a genuine American folk hero cut from the homespun cloth of America's heartland: Sam Walton, who parlayed a single dime store in a hardscrabble cotton town into Wal-Mart, the largest retailer in the world. The undisputed merchant king of the late twentieth century, Sam never lost the common touch. Here, finally, inimitable words. Genuinely modest, but always sure if his ambitions and achievements. Sam shares his thinking in a candid, straight-from-the-shoulder style.In a story rich with anecdotes and the "rules of the road" of both Main Street and Wall Street, Sam Walton chronicles the inspiration, heart, and optimism that propelled him to lasso the American Dream.
