About The BOOK
Backable
A ground-breaking book that boldly claims the key to success in business is not talent, connections, or ideas, but the ability to persuade people to take a chance on potential.

The good news? Gupta claims the “it quality” can be learned. Inside Backable are longheld secrets from extraordinary people, including Oscar-winning filmmakers, members of Congress, culinary stars, venture capitalists, and founders of iconic companies – along with 7 simple steps that you can use to immediately make yourself backable.
