I’m busy reading my advanced copy of Delivering Happiness by Tony Hsieh the CEO of the brilliant Zappos. In 1999, at the age of 24, Tony Hsieh (pronounced Shay) sold LinkExchange, the company he co-founded, to Microsoft for $265 million. He then joined Zappos as an adviser and investor, and eventually became CEO, where he helped Zappos grow from almost no sales to over $1 billion in gross merchandise sales annually, while simultaneously making Fortune magazine’s annual “Best Companies to Work For” list.

I have been sent by the publishers an additional copy which I’d love to give to one of our readers. Please put your name down in the comment block below to stand a chance of winning this book and if you have the time share a story of when a company delivered happiness to your life.

Here are ten reasons why you should read this book:

10 You want to learn about the path that we took at Zappos to go from nothing to over $1 billion in gross merchandise sales in less than ten years.
9 You want to learn about the path that I took that eventually led me to Zappos, and the lessons I learned along the way.
8 You want to learn from all the mistakes we made at Zappos over the years so that your business can avoid making some of the same ones.
