Rasmus Madsen Books
About me:
My name is Rasmus Madsen and since I played with LEGO, I have dreamed about becoming a serial entrepreneur. Every time I made any bigger decision in my life, I has been considering if this decision would make me closer to my dream.
I have started several companies though my young life – which both include success and failures. Every single time I was provided with valuable learning. Though I have physical project in the bag of experience, my interest is strongly on software products.
A lot of my day goes with studying and read materiel from other entrepreneurs!
Right now, I am working in one of the fasted growing Software as a Service products in Denmark.
Favorite quote: "We are the result of our thoughts and actions"!
About the book and the target audience for the book:
The concept of the book is unique. First, the book contains no difficult theories; instead, it has a lot of practical cases. All the good and difficult entrepreneur theories is described in actual cases instead of superficial diagrams.
The book has 16 chapters, which contains the essential steps in the early phase of a startup. Each chapter ends with a tasks to the reader. The tasks can be created for both a learning case and / or the reader's own business.
At the end of the book all the answers from the chapters is used into a draft of a business plan.
The goal is simply to give students something much better material than they used to have in school.
The target audience for the book is young people in trade schools and colleges. From 16 years. However, older first time entrepreneurs also learn and enjoy the book.
I am open for any creative proposal for the cover of the book. I am only going to tell you what I like and what I have in mind. But it must be in some kind of a drawing/illustration.
I had a though about making this a little like: Some baby step on the ground which going in direction of a rocket. The rocket must be on the way to the moon, which also are on the “picture”. A little like the step for Armstrong where he needed to take some small steps before landing on the moon.
I like stuff like:

The back of the book must contain 6 reviews from other entrepreneurs. Name, company, stars given and a short quote from each persons. Maybe a text about the book.
The spine of the book must be something like: “Det lille skridt” and the author, me “Rasmus Madsen”
Please note that the task must contain:
- Links to any stockphoto that I should buy (and the picture should be able to buy to print)
- I will prefer that it is not the must expensive pictures that will be used
- I need to receive all files so I can change in them
- The file must be ready to print for a cover of a book on 140 x 220 mm
- I need a picture of the book standing beautiful without any background (like it was standing on a table)
Be awesome :)
Title: ”Det lille skridt…”.
In English it means ”One small step…”
