I read the book and really liked it, I think I’ve recommended it here a few times

I don’t remember any courses or coaching upsells, maybe that was added in the later editions

I think I’ll read it again, see what I think of it now, it’s been a couple years

If I remember correctly it was mostly about quarterly planning and rocks


This is the EOS, I think the Traction book is the latest in a series of books.
