Business Techniques in Troubled Times: A Toolbox for Small Business Success

"If you see a bandwagon, it’s too late." -- James Goldsmith

I’m really focused on helping businesses large and small succeed.  Times are tough.  I’ve been reading a lot of books on business skills and techniques.  The latest book I read is pretty hard-core. 

And exactly what I wanted to find.

Here’s my review:

Business Techniques in Troubled Times: A Toolbox for Small Business Success

It puts more than 70+ business skills at your fingertips.

What’s especially interesting is that the author is a turnaround artist.  He helps flailing and failing businesses get back on track.   Imagine having that kinds of ability – to help business rise from the ashes phoenix style.

That’s cool stuff.

Actually, it’s very powerful stuff.

Business transformation is a great place to be in today’s world.

After all, businesses are re-inventing themselves at a pace never before possible.

Anyway, you’ll appreciate this book if you want to know …

How to analyze the marketplace and do true competitive analysis and find your differentiation

How to design a great product or service

How to price your product or service more effectively

How to create a roadmap for your product

How to prioritize your product ideas

How to create a more effective business plan

How to avoid the most common mistakes when making a business plan

How to analyze a business model

How to create a financial plan

I could go on, and on, because this book really packs a lot into it.   It’s an “all-in-one” guide that really covers creating and growing a business.   You’ll especially appreciate this book if you’ve struggled with the “money” part of business.   It’s one thing to have a good idea.  It’s another to fund that idea, and to make it economically viable.   This book actually shows you how.

The thing I want to stress about this book though is that it’s written by somebody who helps owners save and grow their businesses for a living.

Within the first fifteen minutes of reading the book, I had at least three new business skills I could immediately apply.
