The right book at the right time - Outstanding.

What did you like most about Known?

Known is one of the most inspiring business books I've had the pleasure to listen to. It's helped me come to a major decision about my own business and life. In short, it's given me something we all want - clarity.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Known?

The concept of Passion versus Sustainable Interest is such a strong point, which is so well made.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

The story of my friend Chloë and also the story of Chris Brogan's struggle with depression moved me as it's something I've struggled with.

Any additional comments?

The book really benefitted greatly from being read by the author. Mark's personality, passion and honesty made such a difference to the experience.

Excellent content- frustrated has no PDF download

Really enjoying this. I get so frustrated with audio books when they don't provide a PDF download when they're using illustrations. Schaefer explains the visual pretty well but it would really help to have a download.
Love the content.

The Most Inspiring Book I've Ever Listened To

I've followed Mark's blog for a few years, but only listened to his audiobook "Social Media Explained" last month. Then I learnt that "Known" had just been released, so I had to listen too. It's personal, entertaining, and (most importantly) inspiring. In fact, more inspiring than any other book I've listened to. It's wonderfully constructed, performed with humility, and full if real case studies and transferable ideas. Whatever you want to be known for and howler big or small your niche is, you will benefit from this book. Brilliant.

Fantastic information for Personal Branding.

Would you consider the audio edition of Known to be better than the print version?

You get the feel and passion of the Author

What did you like best about this story?

The valuable insights, lessons and case studies that I could relate too. Some of the exercises have helped me with my own Personal Branding and thought me so much.

What about Mark W. Schaefer’s performance did you like?

Mark's voice brings the book to life and add a passion to the content and very easy to listen too.

Any additional comments?

The best book on personal branding

If you are looking for a book on personal branding I strongly recommend you read or listen to this book. Mark narrates the book himself which is a nice touch and he has a style which is very easy to listen to. I was at a cross roads in my career, I've been successful in a number of areas but was still feeling frustrated. This book helped me narrow my focus to understand who I truly am / want to be known for. I'd also recommend buying The Known Personal Branding Workbook too as it helps create a plan to implement what you've learned through the book.
