Some people have complained over the years (on the talk page and in edit summaries) that this is a puff piece for a non-notable individual, and I agree. Article is lacking in in-depth coverage in a breadth of reliable secondary sources. Citobun (talk) 14:02, 8 May 2017 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete - the author is not particularly notable, and the piece is generally promotional for a non-notable company. Power~enwiki (talk) 19:46, 8 May 2017 (UTC)

 * Redirect to Fishbowl Inventory. The only real coverage in reliable sources is his inclusion in an Inc.com top ten CEOs and even that doesn't particularly establish his uniqueness or importance. His book doesn't seem to have been widely reviewed. So notability relates to Fishbowl, which he didn't found but played an important role in the history of. --Colapeninsula (talk) 10:00, 16 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Redirect and merge a condensed version to Fishbowl Inventory. Although I loved the article about how he's this rich dude who ran for state Attorney General on the Libertarian ticket, but someone noticed that he had failed to pay child support, I concur with Nom that there is enough here for a stand alone article.E.M.Gregory (talk) 20:38, 16 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete Not enough evidence from reliable sources of notability. Kind Tennis Fan (talk) 05:20, 18 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Redirect per WP:CHEAP and to avoid WP:BLP issues. Bearian (talk) 23:25, 22 May 2017 (UTC)
