One man's pursuit to change the way restaurants manage online table bookings
Now Book It is a quintessential Australian success story. Founded by Craig Joel in 2016, a solo entrepreneur from Perth, NBI sought to level the playing field. Global table-booking platforms charge per bum on seat, and do not share customer data with the restaurant. NBI is a subscription model, very unusual in Food Tech, that provides all customer data to venues. Saving restaurants hundreds of dollars a month, and also empowering their marketing initiatives.This little Aussie start-up is taking on global players, and winning. With more Australian food businesses using NBI than any other platform. https://nowbookit.com/

Creative teaching
A clever creative teaching graphic adaptation of Yuval Noah Harari's bestseller. Easy to understand with full-colour illustrations. We learn about who we are, and how we got to be us. One hundred thousand years ago, at least six different species of humans inhabited Earth. Yet today there is only one-homo sapiens. What happened to the others? And what may happen to us? In this first volume Yuval Harari tells the story of humankind's creation and evolution, exploring the ways in which biology and history have defined us and our understanding of what it means to be "human". https://www.ynharari.com/book/graphicnovelsapiens/
