How to Create, Manage, Fix and Grow your Business

ABOUT

This book is a must-read for every entrepreneur, whether you're just starting out or you're already running a business, and for every manager working for organisations of any size.

Businesses need to succeed now more than ever before. With most economies around the world in desperate need of revival and businesses closing everywhere, you can't afford to waste time or money on business failure. 

Find out everything you need to know to give you and your business a better chance of success.

Learn from the best.

Most business owners find themselves running an organisation they were never trained to run. They start off with a great idea, and that idea soon grows into organisations that need proper management. Unfortunately, research shows that most business owners are great at coming up with ideas, or doing a part of the work that the business needs, but lack basic business management skills.

I know this because I was in the same position, trying to manage a business that desperately needed the skills I didn't know I lacked. I went to business school to do an MBA twelve years after I started my business, and the results were amazing. In 2004, I was about to close my business, and in 2006, I realized a 1200% increase in monthly cash flow just by applying the new knowledge I'd learned. From there, my business grew and grew. Today I sit on the board of three companies, and my net worth has skyrocketed compared to what it was when I started this journey.

I spent many years lecturing business management and teaching business owners and managers the simple skills that made such a difference in my own journey as a business leader, and I've reduced all that knowledge into one easy-to-read book so that you can learn how to be a more effective manager and leader in your business.
