  • Donald Miller is a best-selling author and the creator of the StoryBrand framework. After growing his own business from a small team working in a basement to a $15 million operation, he realized no one had created a simple, step-by-step playbook for business growth—so he wrote it. The same framework you'll learn in How to Grow Your Small Business helped him increase revenue sixfold in just six years, and now it's available to help you grow your own business.
