Upon such success, Kosta once again retired in 2010 to write his third book--Organic Networker--which became an overnight sensation and another “Amazon Best Seller” in two different categories within the first 24 hours of its release. Soon thereafter, Kosta began another successful venture which lead to the founding of Gara Group in 2015.
