Customer Reviews
Benjamin Shapiro ROCKS!!!
Folks, as a fellow podcaster who is competing for your attention and fleeting listening hours, I RARELY take the time and effort to recommend podcasts.
That being said, the host of this show - Benjamin Shapiro - has been such a true friend, resource, and inspiration to me that I cannot hold my tongue.
You MUST listen to this podcast if you are trying to find a job or are simply looking to broaden your network. Benjamin's knowledge, experience, intelligence, wit, and attitude - a very valuable list of qualitites in his case - have always been deployed towards providing service to other people, and helping those who are steps behind him.
For example, he once took an hour out of his busy schedule (work, kids, Benjamin time, etc.) to share with me some tools of the trade. Most entrepreneurs charge $1000+ per hour for that very same help, but he was willing to share his time to help me out of the goodness of his heart. Oh, and by the way, that hour changed the course of my entire career. It would have been well worth the $1000 and I'm eternally grateful.
Not only that, but what Benjamin says actually WORKS! His practical wisdom and straightforward approach is so refreshing given the information overload that we face as a society today. Anybody can pick up their phone and give a 15 minute lecture on what they think. Almost nobody can deliver the value and quality of content that Benjamin does time after time, week after week.
Friends, if it hasn't been made clear as of yet the purpose of this review, let me come out and say it...
You NEED to pay attention to what Benjamin Shapiro has to say. He is the guru that would never call himself a guru that you have been looking for. Do NOT waste another minute - dive into his work immediately.
Your wallet, career, and life will thank me - but mostly Benjamin - later.
