The problem

The books are on your list. They've been there for years.

Influence. Thinking, Fast and Slow. Never Split the Difference. You know they'd make you better at work. But between the job, the family and everything else, there are no hours left for a whole book.

It's not discipline. It's time. And you already have time you don't use: the drive. Turn the commute into your Road MBA hour.

How the 30-day plan works

  1. Press play on the way to workOne book per drive, told like a friend in the passenger seat. Episodes run about 8 to 12 minutes, and you can speed them up to 1.75x.
  2. Hear the story, get the ideaA real story from the book, the one big idea behind it, and how to use it.
  3. Use the toolkitFor every book, the method on one page, plus 3 to 4 practice pages you can print: what to do with the idea this week.
  4. Next day, next bookThe order is planned: focus and people first, then persuasion, habits, strategy, leadership, money, technology and general knowledge.
  5. Watch your 30 days fill upTapClick "Mark as done" and the progress bar moves. It picks up where you stopped.

Questions

Before your first drive

Something else? Write to us at info@roadmba.com.

How does the price work?

Your first day is free, no card. After it you can get all 30 audio summaries for $29, paid once. Not ready? Tap "Not now" and you get 7 more days free, one new book a day, still no card. On day 8 we ask again. No monthly fees, nothing recurring.

How long is each episode?

Between about 8 and 12 minutes. Short enough for one drive, and you can speed it up to 1.75x.

Do I need an app?

No. It opens in your phone's browser. Add it to your home screen and it works like an app in the car.

What do I get with each book?

The audio episode, a toolkit you can print (the method on one page, plus 3 to 4 practice pages), the episode transcript if you'd rather read, and the sources behind every story.

Are these the actual books?

No. They are independent summaries in our own words, built from the books and their sources. Not affiliated with the authors or publishers. For the full depth, read the book.

Is it a degree?

No. It's an audio learning program, not an academic degree. You get the ideas, not a diploma.

What if it's not for me?

You have a 14-day money-back guarantee. Didn't get to it? Not what you expected? Email info@roadmba.com within 14 days of your purchase and get back the full amount you paid. No deductions, no questions asked. A refund closes your access to the program.

What does lifetime access mean?

One payment, then access for as long as Road MBA runs, with nothing more to pay. If we ever remove a title, we tell you by email before it goes, and if we replace it, the new one is included. If we ever close Road MBA, we tell you in advance and give you a way to download what you bought.

Can I try before I buy?

Yes. Your first day is free: the full episode and its toolkit. We email you the link.

Your next drive could be your first book.
