This short book is for anyone who runs or markets an app – or other startup, scaleup or challenger brand – and wants to generate a ton of buzz, coverage and attention but without having a ton of money to do so. With over 1.5 million new apps launched every year – over 4,000 a day – it's never been harder to win attention by standing out in a noisy world; and never been more crucial to do so. It's a case study of how one small app won way more than its fair share of buzz and attention by using creative PR, guerrilla and viral marketing that helped it grow big.

A Vagabond Life is a true story of a family lost. Told by Michael, the oldest son, it chronicles the challenges that arise from a lack of nurturing and a deep hunger for fatherly attention.

His mother means well, but her youth and lack of education or marketable skills leaves her struggling to keep a roof over her family's heads.

Everything in the world gets disrupted—industries, technologies, entire ways of life—but what about you?
