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
Transition
Planning
Ron Beilin and Paul Delfino are

manufacturing enterprises we have worked with hundreds of entrepreneurs to
focus them on goal attainment. We understand that assisting ownership in
establishing and achieving attainable goals is our mission.

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.
