“I use Evan's book, From Local to Global, as a guidebook for growing my small business. The book provides a comprehensive narrative on the business life cycle, from product development, growing a customer base, and finally selling the business. The book provides numerous out-of-the-box solutions to building a brand and solving problems within a budget, putting one in the mindset to solve their own business's challenges-- very useful in the David-vs-Goliath environments where many small businesses compete.”
