""An unflinching look at what it really takes to succeed. Kass and Mike dive into the crap every entrepreneur has to deal with while building a business and emerge with hard-won lessons about starting, managing, pivoting--and learning to love the shovel along the way."" --SCOTT GALLOWAY, Professor at NYU Stern School of Business, Host of Prof G Pod and Co-Host of the Pivot Podcast ""Mike and Kass is the greatest partnership I've ever been lucky enough to witness in person. Not just in business but in life, they bring out the best in each other and all of those around them. This book is a wonderful map to success both personal and professional from two of the most special people I know."" --SETH MEYERS, Host of Late Night with Seth Meyers ""Being an entrepreneur is messy, gritty, and often far from glamorous--and Shoveling $h!t tells it like it is. Kass and Mike offer an unfiltered look at the inevitable struggles every entrepreneur faces while building a successful business from the ground up. No-nonsense and straight-talking, Shoveling $h!t is the business book of the future."" --MEL ROBBINS, Bestselling Author and Host of The Mel Robbins Podcast ""The world needs to be exposed to Kass and Mike. Entrepreneurs who don't devour this book are grossly negligent."" --From the Foreword by Gary Vaynerchuk
