A Note from the Publisher

As the publisher of Jim Britt's book Do This. Get Rich!, I was honestly surprised when I first read the Publishers Weekly (PW) review that the reviewer didn't love the book. In reading the review over, I eventually got it--the reviewer actually missed the author's points. The reviewer saw that Jim had purchased enough soap to fill his garage, and he wanted to know how Jim got rid of it. While Jim obviously sold it, the reviewer wanted to know exactly how he sold it. The reviewer was also put off by the "vague explanation of how [Jim] built his wealth." Well, the steps laid out in the book are how Jim did what he did and how the reader can do the same.

You see, how Jim sold the soap wasn't the important thing; that Jim was willing to take the chance to buy the soap in the first place is the salient point. In order to break out of his circumstances, he needed to become the captain of his own fate. He put together his money, learned as much as he could about the soap company and its products, and took the leap. And frankly, that was the underpinning of Jim's lifetime of success.

The passion that Jim has about our free enterprise system may make him sound like a preacher, but his words are the gospel. If you choose to work for others all your life, there is a strong likelihood that you will not become rich. I guess, like the reviewer, there are those who simply don't get it--and hopefully others who will read this book and walk away with the right points intact.
