From the Inside Flap

Unlike any book you’ve ever read, Mentored by a Millionaire is made up of fifteen mentoring sessions in which you will be mentored in the strategies, skills, and techniques used by super achievers who have become the world’s most successful men and women. You will be mentored in these sessions by Steve Scott, a man who has not only made millions himself, but has helped dozens of others make millions as well. Now, Scott helps you achieve the same meteoric success by sharing the strategies, techniques, and truths he learned while being Mentored by a Millionaire.

Scott is living proof that having a great mentor is far more valuable than any formal education. After losing nine jobs in six years, his resume was less than perfect! But then he found a mentor who taught him how to achieve at a higher level than he had ever dreamed possible. These same strategies have been practiced by some of the world’s most admired men and women, including George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Thomas Edison, Henry Ford, Helen Keller, Oprah Winfrey, John D. Rockefeller, and Bill Gates, among many more.

Mentored by a Millionaire passes along fifteen life-altering strategies that will help you achieve unlimited success. Filled with inspiring case studies, this book will teach you:

  • How average people transform themselves into runaway successes–in any and every field
  • How successful, driven people use vision mapping to turn simple ideas into billion-dollar industries
  • Simple, effective techniques anyone can use to boost their levels of creativity, ingenuity, and persistence
  • Strategies exceptional people use to overcome setbacks and obstacles–no matter how discouraging the circumstances
  • Why people who fear failure miss out on life’s greatest opportunities
  • How to turn criticism into your most valuable resource
  • How to achieve more in one day than most people achieve in a month
  • "Actions for Traction" interactive exercises to help you master the strategies and techniques covered

Whether your goal is to succeed as an entrepreneur, boost your performance level at work, or overcome personal challenges, Mentored by a Millionaire will show you how to turn your dreams into reality.

From the Back Cover

You’ve been taught by teachers, now you can be MENTORED by a MILLIONAIRE!

When it comes to succeeding, there’s an infinite difference between being taught theories in school, and being mentored in specific skills and strategies by someone who has made tens of millions of dollars himself. Steve Scott was a corporate failure until he was mentored by a millionaire. Using the strategies he learned from his mentor, Steve became a multimillionaire entrepreneur who along with his partners built more than a dozen companies from scratch, achieving billions of dollars in sales. Now, step-by-step, he mentors readers in each of the master strategies that have enabled him and countless others to achieve their impossible dreams.

"The secret of Steve Scott’s wonderful book can be found in the title. These strategies work because you’re being mentored by someone from the front lines. This book will be forever around, helping, teaching–mentoring."
–Larry King, CNN, Larry King Live

"The splendidly organized wisdom in this book is made more attractive by the specific examples Scott uses. It is instantly clear to the reader that these techniques are within the reach of anyone, and this good news makes it a revelation."
–Hugh Downs, ABC News, 20/20 (ret.)

"I don’t remember whether Horatio Alger was ever cornered to write a book on how to succeed, but at least we have this fun and instructive book by young Mr. Scott. It deserves to be read widely, and my hope for it is that everyone who reads it will become a millionaire."
–William F. Buckley Jr., Founder, National Review

"UNBELIEVABLE! This book should be required reading for every man and woman in America. In this book, Steve Scott not only proves you and your family can achieve your ‘impossible dreams,’ he takes you by the hand and gives you the knowledge, confidence, and the power to achieve every one!"
–Chuck Norris

"Steve Scott has captured a very simple but powerful formula for translating one’s dreams into reality. The reason this book has so much credibility for me is that I have seen him implement these principles in his personal life to tremendous success–professionally, with his family, and in all aspects of his life. This is a must-read book."
–Hyrum W. Smith, Vice Chairman of the Board, The Franklin-Covey Company

"Steve Scott’s phenomenal track record for success in so many different endeavors shows that his principles are universally effective. In this book, he gives you a clear and concise road map to achieving more success than you would even think possible. If you follow it, you’re sure to get there."
–Dick Clark, Dick Clark Productions

This book is actually two subjects.

The first third of this book explains how the author rose above an early life of failures and mediocrity. The author met a mentor who emphasised respecting other employees, people, and profit sharing. This mentor was a business partner and their company ended up making millions.

The next two thirds of the book is about how to write infomercials since that is what the author does for a living.

The book is a very detailed personal account of his company, events, and infomercials. Some references to the bible.

For me there's not much new here since I've read plenty of motivation and advertising books. But let's say you had a bad start or want to learn about infomercials, this book may be suitable for you.

Mentored by a Millionaire November 9, 2004
Format:Hardcover
Fortunately I saw Larry King's interview with Scott and decided to look it up on Amazon. Hugh Down's calling it a "revelation" motivated me to order it. I have read most of the self-help best-sellers on achievement, but I have never read a book like this one. Others, like 7 Habits give you great principles but don't really give you the skills or techniques you need to apply them to your daily life. Scott not only reveals his incredible strategies, he teaches you every necessary skill and technique to apply each strategy to the important areas of your life. This should not be called a self-help book, but a "how-to" book. While I really like it from a business perspective, my wife says she's more excited about using the skills in our marriage and with our kids. For the person that wants to achieve the extraordinary, this book is a no-brainer.

Some time ago I read another book by Mr. Scott. I can't remember the title of the book, but I remember it being much the same as this one. He went on and on about his accomplishments; he went to school with Stephen Spielberg, held 9 unsuccessful jobs after graduating from college, wrote a successful screenplay (or something), and is now a successful primary partner in a major advertising company. It's great that he has had so many successes in his life, and I don't mind reading about it--once. To dwell on it in every book he writes gets a little annoying. On the other hand, he does offer a lot of great advise to readers; pointing out the fact that each and every one can accomplish equal feats. His writing style is entertaining. Though there are better books in this genre, I do recommend this book.

Spends most of the book talking about his story and that you should get a mentor. Not recommended if you want a book with trading wisdom.
