NEW YORK, April 2, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Colin C. Campbell's groundbreaking guide to entrepreneurship, Start. Scale. Exit. Repeat.: Serial Entrepreneurs' Secrets Revealed!, has been named a finalist in the Business & Career category for the 36th Annual IBPA Benjamin Franklin Award™. Published by Forbes Books, Campbell's book stands out as a beacon for aspiring entrepreneurs and seasoned business owners alike, earning number one in over 10 Amazon categories.

Unveiling the seldom-discussed blueprint for start-up success, Campbell's book delves into the core of what makes businesses flourish.

His narrative is further enriched with wisdom from a cadre of fellow serial entrepreneurs and thought leaders, making this book a comprehensive guide for anyone looking to navigate the turbulent waters of business.

Campbell reflects, "Entrepreneurship is more than a passion for me; it's about helping others achieve their startup dreams. After 10 years of writing and two years of collaboration with a dedicated team of six, we've engaged with over 200 experts, authors, and entrepreneurs. Our goal was clear: to develop an accessible yet comprehensive guide for those embarking on their entrepreneurial journey."

Adam Witty, CEO of Forbes Books adds, "Helping entrepreneurs and thought leaders is the focus of our business at Forbes Books.

Scale. Exit. Repeat., and he deserves the recognition he and his book are receiving."

Start. Scale. Exit. Repeat. simplifies the complex journey from ideation to lucrative exit, providing readers with actionable strategies, real-life examples, and Campbell's own "Golden Nuggets" of wisdom.

The two other finalists are Employalty: How to Ignite Commitment and Keep Top Talent in the New Age of Work by Joe Mull and Simply Put: Why Clear Messages Win—and How to Design Them by Ben Guttmann.
