Description

This short guide was designed to help small-business owners maintain a sound strategic perspective. Each chapter is, essentially, an introduction to a specific type of strategic thinking. Our goal is to help small-business owners avoid common pitfalls and take advantage of opportunities that are frequently missed.

Our approach is based on the most important lesson we’ve learned as consultants: most entrepreneurs already know everything they need to know about their businesses. They simply need to apply their knowledge in the most productive way possible, which generally involves someone asking them the right questions. This book covers 6 core topics:

Growth

Budgeting

Pricing

Sales and Self-evaluation

Compensation

Advance Praise

I love the fact that this is short, thoughtful, engaging, and a very relevant book. No fluff- just real ideas you can use. Day one, I was reading it, got inspired and shared the thinking in it with my team. Now, I keep it close at hand at my office desk. I love "Good to Great", I love Michael Porter on Strategy, I love Peter Drucker but this is the book for entrepreneurs who need practical advice and not just theory and need it in a quick easy to understand package.

I found the book too general to be of real use. I realize entrepreneurial situations vary widely, but it felt like every other sentence sounded like this one: "That being so, it's difficult to offer sales advice to a wide audience." I didn't expect step by step directions, but I did think there would be a slightly more practical side to the book.
