Summary
This is the bundle of two books: A Beginner’s Guide to the Platform Business Model and Why You Are Addicted to Technology.
It gives you a holistic and well-rounded view of the platform model that shapes our lives today and also lets you discover if the business model is for you.
If you are a business professional, owner, or student and have to evaluate the platform model that big business technology is using while also getting acquainted with the complications with it socially and ethically, then this bundle is for you. Likewise, if you are concerned about these big business technologies like Facebook and Google and how their influence of digital addiction is breaking us and also want the business incentives and corporate behind these motivations, then this bundle is for you.
In short, this bundle will make it cheaper if you want both books; buy one get two!
You will:
- Cut through the things you already know are wrong and get to the root of the matter: how to change what is endemic to our big business technology problems
- Get acquainted with the platform business model and discover if you are missing out on it
- Discover what the business model is, how to launch it, when not to launch it, how to manage it, and if a unique variant of the model is more for you
- Discover why big business technologies make you a means to an end
- Know that the spying, probing, and prodding on you may be for your own benefit
I chose to write both of these books to show the two sides of the same coin. Originally, it even was the same book after I decided to break them up into their own separate works. So, have your eyes opened to the possibilities of this business model you are missing out on and know the concerns it brings for people to avoid them.
Tap or click the "buy now" button and have your eyes opened.

Educational and a great listen
I find J.H. Pii’s books really insightful with a lot of useful information. Although they’ve educated me, the messages in the books don’t come across in a patronising way which I really like. The books are easy to listen to and I feel like I’ve come away with new knowledge which really gives the books value to me.

Uniquely written and dives deep; a most listen!
I always knew that I was addicted to technology, but needed to understand exactly why.
J.H. Pii explains economics, business, psychology, and technology in a clear and understandable way without being biased or having an agenda. Every sentence has a flair to it, a unique way of writing that isn't just a copy and paste Wikipedia regurgitation.
What is interesting with this bundle, is that you get the business and social side of the same problem while it provides actual practical solutions to tackle this technology addiction and data mining.
I will be purchasing the books in this bundle individually as a way to support the author and his books. The narration is done by the author himself which can be a hit and miss, but here it fits really well because you can tell the enthusiasm.
Would definitely recommend it!

A Good Education
I listened to these books and found myself learning and gaining knowledge.
The books show and help with how companies start out. Reaching out to new clients and generating money.
I have recommended this book to a friend. These books don't talk down to you and helps with getting a new business started.

an education.. and an eye opener!
I am so pleased I chose this book! I feel as though I just completed a degree qualification.
not only is this book great if you are starting a platform of your own but also golden information if you are a member of one.
throughout this book I have learned so much of how the big platforms operate both past present and future and some of my new found education is quite scary to learn.
I feel both wiser but also very aware of the operational tactics used today.
learning how they once were and how they came to be was very interesting indeed.
the explanations are clear and precise even for someone like me who is easily confused. and the narration is very easy on the ear.
I would highly recommend this book!

A great deal -2 books combined with one theory!
A very thought provoking pair of books, originally written as one large volume but separated in order to develop each one independently - now they have been brought back together in this bundle!
J.H. Pii's narration is as engaging as ever as he discusses the emerging business models in the modern world, and how their structures inform how we think and what we consume, and how they ultimately shape the way that we live.
It's important that we become informed on these ethical issues so that we can slowly become more conscientious in how we interact with social media networks and their external business models.
There is no better starting point than understanding the "why" and "how" of it all, the first volume of this duo does just that, and the second very comfortably introduces us to those deeper ethical and behavioural issues associated with data-mining and attention-farming.
For anyone who wants to get started, this is a very strong place to do so.

Insightful, clear and fascinating
I found this book eye-opening. Using examples such as Amazon, Uber, Netflix and other global organisations, J.H. Pii explains how platform marketing works in an interesting and enjoyable way. I found this beginner's guide very accessible.
