There’s a lot to learn about business and entrepreneurial success from this memoir. The story of how Netflix went from foundering startup to dominant subscription service is fascinating. Mitch had the idea of making a DVD out of President Bill Clinton’s testimony about his affair with Monica Lewinsky. The Netflix guys got huge press lined up for their stunt and signed up thousands of new subscribers. What follows is a high-stakes pre-dawn chase through Northern California attempting to find someone who could get the technology to work, followed by mailing DVDs to all those new signups, operating out of a former bank vault.

I love reading about how company got started and this was a great read!

This quote from the foreword of the book sums up my impression of Mitch Lowe: "I do not know how to do it, but I'll bet I can figure it out."

I have met Mitch in person, listen to his speech and now read his book and I have to say that Mitch is a person I love to learn from. Wonderful spirit and creativity combined with a positive curiosity.

This is a book that I will go back and re-read multiple times (and that is not something I do with a lot of books.)

I think you will be just as inspired as I was by Mitch creativity, but also by how the stories he tells remind us all about the power that comes from making friends in your industry,

Watch and learn is the perfect title for this book. I hope you will get it and do just that.
