Reviews
" Pattern Breakers shows why the only path to breakthrough results is to break the mold and be non-consensus, not just right. Maples and Ziebelman offer concrete examples from some of the most impactful start-ups of our time and practical advice that founders can use in their own efforts to change the future." -- Andy Rachleff, co-founder of Benchmark Capital and Wealthfront, "The most important start-up book of the last ten years."-- Steve Blank, co-creator of the Lean Startup movement, "Mike Maples Jr. and Peter Ziebelman explain what founders need to know to build billion-dollar businesses: how to break through patterns of conventional thinking and spot the biggest ideas. Told through entertaining case examples based on their firsthand experience working with some of the most innovative tech companies, Pattern Breakers is an indispensable guide to start-up success." -- Safi Bahcall, author of Loonshots, "Straightforward advice on launching a startup... aspiring entrepreneurs will find some sensible suggestions." -- Publishers Weekly, "Luck in a start-up might actually be a strategy hiding in something others haven't seen clearly enough. Pattern breaking often involves the hard work of seeing inflection points before others do." -- Seth Godin, author of This Is Marketing, "A useful, accessible package for those seeking a revolutionary path... The authors make their case with conviction and intelligence, bringing new thinking to an old problem."-- Kirkus Reviews, "Entrepreneurship and innovation play a critical role in shaping a better future, and Messrs. Maples and Ziebelman provide helpful guidance. But to truly benefit from innovations, founders, citizens and policymakers all need to think about the inflection points on the horizon and how to create broad societal benefits while seeking to understand and minimize societal harms." -- Wall Street Journal, "Mike Maples and Peter Ziebelman are on a relentless pursuit to understand start-up outliers beyond anyone else."-- Kevin Systrom, co-founder of Instagram

Synopsis
Based on extensive research and real-world examples, this book upends accepted wisdom about how to achieve success when launching a startup or creating a new product. The breakthrough concepts of Pattern Breakers come from the observations of Mike Maples Jr., a seasoned venture capitalist, who noticed something strange. Start-ups like Twitter, Twitch, and Lyft had achieved extraordinary success despite their disregard for "best practices." In contrast, other startups deemed highly promising often failed, even when they seemed to do everything right. Seeking answers, Maples and coauthor Peter Ziebelman set out to discover the hidden forces that drive extraordinary start-up success. Pattern-breaking success, they reveal, demands a different mindset and actions to harness developments others miss or that may, at first, seem crazy. Pattern Breakers is filled with firsthand storytelling about initial interactions with some of the most transformative start-ups of recent times. Maples and Ziebelman challenge us to rethink how to transcend the ordinary and achieve the extraordinary.

    The CD arrived perfect; packaging, description, details and prompt delivery. Very polite and a pleasure to deal with. I mistakenly sent negative, as it was meant for another seller who sold me the exact item. I recommend this seller 100%!

    I just received my CD and it came in perfect condition, as described and in a timely fashion. I accidentally made a negative feedback intended for another seller for the exact same item. I am so sorry. Please accept my apology and keep up the great work!
