Starting a movement is not about the entrepreneur, it's about the followers. It's about them. And then it's about us. It's never about "I" or "me".
The global economy is becoming more collaborative every day. It has brought new disruptive models to giant existing industries–as well as those that fund them–leveraging the internet to create massively scalable businesses and brands.
In The Movement Economy, Ash Kumra and Ankur Garg–two national speakers, founders and entrepreneurs– share not only why it's possible to start a movement, but how.
This book is teaches entrepreneurs the real-life strategies used to create movements and become a change for millions around the world. It teaches how to create and leverage a crowd to maximize results and a win/win for everybody.
Learn from entrepreneur luminaries who have created movements that have empowered millions and generated hundreds more. Learn how brands, now worth $100 million dollars each, unite people on common ground with a shared objective to mobilize together and spread a message across a nation very quickly.
This book was inspired by Youngry co-founder's Ash Kumra & Ankur Gargs national entrepreneurship movement that spanned over 50 locations, 50,000 entrepreneurs, over 150 endorsers and close to six figures generated (all within 90 days!). Ash Kumra and Ankur Garg have spoken to over 10,000 people and have been cited in 100’s of articles including Forbes, Huffington Post, American Express Forum, Entrepreneur Magazine, Startup America/Up Global, LA Times, OC Register, Tedx & The White House.
Part 1- Introduction
How Ash Kumra and Ankur Garg surrounded themselves with entrepreneurs years before they we're ready to create a movement.
Part 2- Conception
How to get started as an entrepreneur who is trying to create a movement and why understanding the changing economy is a necessary first step.
Part 3- Tapping the Crowd
Crowdfunding is revolutionizing how founders and entrepreneurs can share, fund and gain momentum around their idea.
Part 4- Flow
The elements of the Flow: Focus, Love, Opportunity, Win and how to use them to gain the most for your brand or venture and start a movement.
The primary market for this book are young entrepreneurs ready to create change and impact the global community. A large majority of entrepreneurs and creatives are turning to disruptive models to get their message out there, raise funds, and start a national movement, very quickly.
A successful crowdfunding round not only provides your business with needed cash, but creates a base of customers who feel as though they have a stake in the business' success, and entrepreneurs today are leveraging the vastly increasing options available to them. Not only that, these platforms allow tens of millions of people access to new business projects and ideas, and hundreds of millions of dollars have funded by people across the globe.
Ash and Ankur are backed by several of their businesses and partnerships including Youngry and others. This book is for this audience of entrepreneurs, founders and movers directly, and will be the main medium to obtain preorders.

Virtualbookworm Publishing
Virtualbookworm (VBW) Publishing was founded by a writer frustrated by the long wait time and occasional heartbreak often associated with the publishing industry. After researching the various "alternatives," he discovered a number of subsidy publishers that would publish any author ... for a price. Unfortunately, many reviewers (and readers) thumb their noses at books from such houses, since all it takes is cash to get published by them.
