Let's Build a Company

Let’s Build a Company is an honest, engaging, and highly relatable account of the entrepreneurial journey of Harpreet Grover and Vibhore Goyal, the co-founders of Cocubes, an online assessment and hiring platform. Unlike many business books filled with jargon and motivational clichés, this book offers a refreshing, realistic look at what it actually takes to build a startup in India.

The authors share their journey from being two IIT Bombay graduates with a dream to building a company from scratch — facing rejections, financial struggles, slow growth, and constant uncertainty. Their storytelling is simple, witty, and grounded in real experiences, giving readers a clear picture of the emotional and practical challenges that come with entrepreneurship.

One of the key strengths of the book is its authenticity. Harpreet and Vibhore do not glorify startup life; instead, they present it as a mix of highs and lows — from investor meetings and client failures to moments of doubt and eventual success. The tone remains humble and encouraging, especially for aspiring entrepreneurs who want to understand what truly happens behind the scenes.

The book also highlights important lessons on perseverance, teamwork, and decision-making. It shows that success is not instant — it is built through patience, resilience, and learning from mistakes.

Overall, Let’s Build a Company is an inspiring and down-to-earth read that demystifies the startup journey. It’s not just a book for entrepreneurs but for anyone who values honesty, hard work, and the courage to follow one’s dreams.
