SHOWING UP: How I Built Businesses, Communities, and Momentum from the Ground Up

Most people think successful businesses begin with breakthrough ideas.

The reality is very different.

They begin with small actions repeated consistently over time.

In Showing Up, entrepreneur Michael Ripia shares the story behind building multiple ventures across marketing, technology, and community-building, including Sydney Tennis NSW, Australia's largest tennis community with more than 20,000 members.

Through real experiences and practical insights, Ripia explores how modern founders can build meaningful businesses by combining systems, relationships, and long-term thinking.

This book is about momentum.

About resilience.

And about the quiet power of showing up every day to build something that matters.

Whether you're launching your first company or scaling your next venture, Showing Up offers a perspective on entrepreneurship that goes beyond hype and focuses on what actually works.
