We believe that the most exciting businesses today aren’t profit-driven, or even product-driven, they’re purpose-driven. And we want to see more of them. That’s why we created the newest installment in our 99U book series, Make Your Mark: The Creative’s Guide to Building a Business with Impact.
Unlike your standard-issue business books, Make Your Mark tackles the topic of building a business from a maker’s perspective, rather than a manager’s. It’s not about manufacturing more widgets or having a great meeting or even getting your startup to that mythical, magical IPO, it’s about how to make stuff that really matters—and build businesses with meaning.
To get road-tested advice on just what makes a great business, we tapped 21 designers, founders, and entrepreneurs from some of the world’s most creative companies like Warby Parker, Facebook, Bonobos, Sugru, Google X, Contently, and many more.
