About this product
Product Information
Nautilus Book Awards' Better Books for a Better World Axiom Business Book Award Winner GrubHub founder Mike Evans reveals the inside story of how he grew a multibillion-dollar behemoth that changed the way we eat. Hungry and tired one night, Mike wanted a pizza, but getting a pizza delivered was a pain in the neck. He didn't want to call a million restaurants to see what was open. So, as an avid coder, he created GrubHub in his spare bedroom to figure out who delivered to his apartment. Then, armed with a $140 check from his first customer and ignoring his crushing college debt, he quit his job. Over the next decade, Mike grew his little delivery guide into the world's premier online ordering website. In doing so, he entered the company of an elite few entrepreneurs to take a startup from an idea all the way to an IPO. GrubHub's journey from Mike's bedroom to Wall Street doesn't fit into how business schools teach entrepreneurship. In Hangry, he details step-by-step the grind of building an innovative business, with each chapter including sharp lessons for entrepreneurs and startups that Mike learned on the fly as he piloted GrubHub by the seat of his pants. Hangry reveals a decade of eighty-hour work weeks, detailed steps of how Mike garnered his first customers, his hunt for financing dollars, cliffhanger acquisitions, the near collapse of his marriage, a brutally difficult merger, and a pair of tumultuous quit/unquit moments, all to steer the company to become one of the most successful startups in the world. With a razor-sharp wit, Mike reveals hard-won truths about how startups succeed--and even harder-won truths about how startups fail. Shocking everyone, at the pinnacle of startup success, Mike leaves it all behind, quitting the company he started to bike across the United States in search of balance. But eventually, the grand vistas of America bring the lessons of the past into focus, driving the realization that for entrepreneurs a hunger for success doesn't end, and he starts another company, even more ambitious than the first.

Reviews
"A lovely and impassioned book, full of insights for anyone trying to extract the very best out of people. . . .This is a book about the awful grind of building a startup."-- Wall Street Journal, "Do you enjoy a little entertainment from the business books you consume? Whet your appetite with Hangry . Written by Mike Evans, the innovator behind GrubHub, Hangry spells out real-world tips for building a startup. As the saying goes, the school of hard knocks is the best way to learn. But you can skip some of the jostling by learning from Evans' lessons. Who knows? You might just end up unleashing a unicorn with your next brilliant idea."-- Forbes, "In one of the truest portrayals of startup life I've ever read, Hangry lays out the painful-but-true story of the founding of GrubHub. But unlike most self-aggrandizing and chest-pounding entrepreneurial memoirs, company founder Mike Evans is brutally honest about how it really went down; the uncertainty, the disappointments, and his continuous struggle to keep a growing company true to its original vision. But it is more than just a business book - it's a personal journey as well. In fact, as a company founder myself, I can tell you that Hangry is right up there with ShoeDog for being one of the most honest and vulnerable depictions of what really goes into building a business. Whether you are thinking of starting a company, or just like reading about the people who do, Hangry has earned a place on the very short bookshelf of great entrepreneurial stories."-- Marc Randolph, co-founder of Netflix and author of The Will Never Work

No complaints here! Arrived later than advertised, but that was fine. Good communication by seller. 150-year old book actually arrived in better condition than I expected even though it was delivered inside a thin plastic envelope. For the sale price, I am a very happy customer. Thank you!
