21st Century Tactics: Small Business Marketing Series by Glyn Williams

12:07 AM by Leave a Comment

This book is free on these days only – 06/16/2013 at midnight PST until 11:59 pm on 06/20/2013. If the dates are the same that means the book is free one day only.

21st-300A New Way of Thinking…

Over the last few years the world of business has changed. The proliferation of the internet as a marketing channel and an influx of new business start up’s all looking to develop their small business into a larger one. This has resulted in much more competition and requires the small business owner to be keener, sharper, cuter and faster than ever before in history.

Many existing businesses are failing to expand their approach in light of these challenges. What is often common sense to the new small business owner of today can appear alien to established companies.

Both new business owners and established ones must step up to the plate and take new approaches with their business strategy and their marketing prowess when looking at business development.

This book covers 15 approaches that will add value to both new business owners and those that have been established for many years.

Glyn Williams was born in Derbyshire UK in 1963. His father, brother and late grandfather were all entrepreneurs and businessmen.

For over 20 years worked in sales and marketing and as a radio personality until in 2012 he contracted ‘High Grade Dysphonia’, the closest you can get to vocal cancer. Laser surgery of the vocal chords followed which solved the problem but left him without his most basic sales tool in full working order.

Life with a diminished voice forced him to look at a new career that was not dependent on the use of the spoken word.

In a change of career he became a writer in 2013 and decided to share his knowledge of sales and marketing through books.

He has also been a highly respected foreign exchange currency speculator for 12 years.

He continues to live in Derbyshire with his wife Daphne.

The Small Business Life Cycle: A Guide for Taking the Right Steps at the Right Time to Grow Your Small Business by Charlie Gilkey

1:14 PM by Leave a Comment

cover4Learn which steps to take at the right time to grow your small business.

Here’s the deal: small businesses – including microbusinesses – have a lifecycle that’s different than the lifecycles of other kinds of businesses. If you’re a small business owner, you probably started your business because there was some particular product you wanted to build or service you wanted to provide and you’ve probably figured out that having a successful small business takes more than having a great product or great service. Growing a small business requires knowing which steps to take at the right time; if you take those steps out of order and you can waste a lot of time, money, and momentum.

There are five stages to the small business lifecycle, each of which have different strengths, challenges, inconvenient truths, and ways forward. This guide shows you what each of those stages are and will show you where to focus your resources so you can grow your business.

If you’ve been thinking about starting your own business, it’ll help you figure where to start and get a foothold in a market. While there are some differences in starting an online business versus starting a traditional small businesses, both of them share the same business lifecycle.

And if you’ve been in business for a while, you’ll have a better gauge to evaluate where you are and what you need to do next. If you’re growing fast and want to keep growing, it’ll show you how to do it strategically. If you’re stuck and don’t know what to do, it’ll show you what you have to get in place to get unstuck.

Here are some specific topics we’ll cover:

Questions to ask before you start your own small business

How to get a foothold in the market and why you should be marketing fewer things to fewer audiences

Why some “successful” products and services will cause you to get stuck and lose momentum

Where your small businesses might get stuck and what four things must be in place to get it going and growing again

How not to break a successful, scalable small business once you’ve got it there

While this guide won’t give you a specific business strategy, it’ll show you what needs to be done so you can determine the right strategy for your business.

This guide is succinct and very accessible; you don’t need another longer, hard-to-understand business book. No prior business education or experience is required to understand it, though prior education and experience will give you a deeper understanding of the insights in this book. You’ve got a business to grow, and this book is written to get you realigned, focused, and gaining momentum.

Targeted Age Group:
24-55

How is Writing In Your Genre Different from Others?
Writing a business book requires being very focused but at the same time distilling your key points without jargon so that anyone can understand despite the level of business education he or she may have. You walk a fine line between general explanation and specific examples, but both are necessary.

What Advice Would You Give Aspiring Writers?
Just start.

Author Bio:

Charlie Gilkey helps people take meaningful action on the stuff that matters. His website, ProductiveFlourishing.com, is one of the top websites for planning and productivity for professional creatives, entrepreneurs, and small business owners. He’s a sought-after speaker and advisor on small business growth and business strategy. His work is grounded in theory at the same time that’s practical and actionable.

What Inspired You to Write Your Book?
The book, The Small Business Lifecycle: A Guide for Taking the Right Steps at the Right Time to Grow Your Small Business, is an extension and curation of the material I’ve been sharing about the small business lifecycle over the last few years. It’s main point is that bootstrapped small businesses grow differently than other kinds of businesses and growing a small business requires focusing on the right steps at the right time. Too many small business owners are either trying to do things too early or are still doing things the same way as they started, which either leads to gaining no traction or not addressing what has their business stuck. It shows what steps to take at what stage of business.
