An excellent listen
So interesting that I found myself making excuses to find time to hear more and got through it in a couple of days. Interesing insights and so much better that it's read by the man himself, from wherever he preferred.

Not as exciting as his persona
I enjoyed the read but felt he had some scripted parts (obliged to say for business reasons?). Found it less interesting than his "out there" persona...

Business Stripped Bare
This was my first book through Audible.co.uk and thought I would spend 10 mins at a time on it but found it very interesting and enjoyable as not a very fast reader, I read/listen to it in about a week. His explanations of a few of his ventures and how he addapted them to his style and great customer service which is a must in the present day, wish others could adopt his style. Great book and makes a differance being read by author

A Must Read
This is a really good listen, not only from the practical `tit bits` and fascinating story of one of our Great business men, but vastly enhanced by the fact that it?s read by the man himself. Unlike his autobiography, Loosing My Virginity, Business Stripped Bare is an excellent listen as the author is able to articulate far more so than any narrator, the feeling and exhilaration behind the stories and history, the amusement and exasperation? A simple must read for all Branson enthusiasts and business managers alike. A definite will listen again too.

Loved it!
This book is well read by Richard Branson and is full of advice, tips and personal lessons learnt. It's an honest and enlightening account of the beginning of the Virgin story. I found it inspiring and encouraging for developing and growing my own business!

Excellent listening material. Inspirational.
Inspirational, lots of great advice, namley, distinguishing entrepreneurship vs business management. Could have done without the SJW pandering, however years of carefree partying have probably created the guilt necessary to motivate political correctness on the part of R.B.
