Barely a day after its release, Femi Otedola?s new book, ?Making It Big: Lessons from a Life in Business,? has surged onto Amazon?s bestseller list.

The much-anticipated memoir was launched on August 18 and quickly climbed to No. 4 on Amazon?s Best Sellers in Business Biographies and Memoirs category. It sits just behind Gary Stevenson?s ?The Trading Game?, Simon Squibb?s ?What?s Your Dream?? and Phil Knight?s classic ?Shoe Dog?.

The billionaire businessman?s work recounts his journey through the highs and lows of entrepreneurship, spotlighting the risks, resilience, and defining choices that propelled him to success.
