Product Description
In Do Cool Sh*t, serial social entrepreneur, angel investor, and all-around cool sh*t–doer Miki Agrawal shows how to start a successful company—from brainstorming to raising money to getting press without any connections—all while having a meaningful life!
With zero experience and no capital, Miki Agrawal opened WILD, a farm-to-table pizzeria in New York City and Las Vegas, partnered up in a children's multimedia company called Super Sprowtz, and launched a patented high-tech underwear business called THINX.
Miki has seen significant growth in her businesses. She pulls back the curtain of how you can live out loud, honor your hunches, and leave nothing on the table.
Whether you’re a student with big aspirations or an experienced professional looking for new opportunities, Do Cool Sh*t will open your eyes, make you laugh, and give you the confidence to quit your day job, start your own business, and live happily ever after.
Do Cool Sh*t features a foreword by Tony Hsieh, the founder of Zappos.

Unrealistic and a downright slap to the face of rock bottom entrepreneurs.by Matthew Brushinski (1 out of 5 stars)

I was expecting a book of quitting my day job, starting my own business and living happily ever after... instead I was treated to a story of how a girl from a well off family went from Cornell, to summer internships at film studios, to a semester in London... which apparently all entrepreneurs do? Then it goes on to tell us how she was nervous of hosting a dinner brainstorm session... at an MTV Studios boardroom.... which she only did after shadowing a top level restaurateur of NYC. This book isn't motivational or feel good by any means. It makes you feel that unless you went to a well off college and have high end connections through school or family... you won't make it. Hoping to be able to return this as it won't be staying anywhere near my library.

I believe Miki knows exactly what she is talking about, it helped me think a lot of my current situation. I was recommended this book by another artist and I finished it before her so I tried not to spoil it. But the situations she describes are possible to any and everybody!
RELIABLE.

While I can appreciate Miki's efforts, the writing style in this book is awful. I loved the concept when my friend told me about it but I couldn't get past the first 40 or so pages. When I shared my reaction with said friend, she said "oh yeah! I forgot to tell you it's pretty bad... I couldn't get through it either!" Would not recommend.
Awesome book. Great step by step advice & wisdom!

The air about this book is so trivial. The writing style of a tween. So peppy and bubbly but lacking in substance. The books last few chapters are about diet and exercise. Like I bought the start my business book to get diet advice? There are much better books by entrepreneurs out there skip this one.

Not what I expected. I was hoping for some inspiration but instead it was more like a how-to book on writing a business plan.
