Why Thinking-By-Numbers is the New Way to be Smart...

At the time, Profesor Ayres was in the research phase of his book Super Crunchers: Why Thinking-By-Numbers is the New Way to be Smart. It just so happened that this research required him to interview Karlan on the subject of poverty-alleviation initiatives. Once that business was out of the way, Karlan told Ayres about The Commitment Store. Ayres loved the concept, both as a personal tool that he’d go on to try himself (click here to read his personal weight loss story), and as a business opportunity. Before long, their discussions gave birth to a bouncing baby stickK!
