NEW YORK, Jan. 2, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Let Me Save You 25 Years: Mistakes, Miracles, and Lessons from the Lovesac Story, by Shawn D. Nelson, is now available. The book is published with Forbes Books, the exclusive business book publishing imprint of Forbes, and is available on Amazon today.

Described by Sir Richard Branson as "a highly entertaining read filled with valuable lessons for anyone starting a business," Let Me Save You 25 Years is a tale so striking, honest, and sometimes humiliating that it must be true.

Nelson, the founder and CEO of Lovesac, details the ups and downs of his 25-year saga of building the business from its days as a college side hustle to a successful IPO on the NASDAQ stock exchange and beyond.

Full of triumphant victories and humbling defeats, Nelson presents a vivid and authentic picture of the entrepreneurial rollercoaster over the course of the book's 25 micro-chapters. Accompanying each chapter are key bits of wisdom—critical lessons learned the hard way—that turn Nelson's story into a motivational, practical, and useful guide for anyone working to carve out their own legacy.

"Entrepreneurship is a never-ending pursuit, but the journey is the gift," Nelson said. "With an open mind, an honest heart, some ambition, time, help, and a little bit of luck—all things are possible. I hope you find that to be true, and I hope this little book can be useful to you as you make it so."
