Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every entrepreneur sets out to solve a problem or series of identified problems in society and then grow a profitable business. Growth is the most important aspect of a business's life cycle; without it, no business succeeds and every entrepreneur would just turn out a failure. Growth means many things to many entrepreneurs and businesses. It can mean making more sales, generating more revenue, creating more product lines, expanding to new locations, getting more funding in the case of startups, increasing capacity by hiring and so much more. Among the many things that make up growth for a business, generating more sales and making more money is at the forefront of it. Without more revenue, no business would become self-sustaining, and business death would become an eventuality. This is why marketing is the most important thing every business needs to succeed in to grow… According to the US Chamber of Commerce… 8 out of every 10 small business close within the first 5 years of establishment. Why is this shocking statistic possible? I will tell you. It's obviously because of the lack of sales and generation of revenue to power the growth of the business. And how do they generate revenues? By having a continuous inflow of customers to serve, who pay them… And how do they get a steady inflow of customers? By marketing continuously and driving in new prospects through brand awareness and other marketing campaign objectives. Research shows that businesses that master the art of marketing early enough in their life cycle, experience massive growth than those that do not. Apple Inc. succeeded not because they created wonderful and innovative products from the beginning but because Steve Jobs was a wonder at marketing their creations and getting them into as many offices and homes as possible. So, as an entrepreneur, if you want to succeed with your venture or business, you must focus on marketing to grow your business and become profitable… Business synergy is one of the often overlooked and fastest methods to implement marketing and grow exponentially. The problem is that many entrepreneurs do not necessarily pay attention to business synergy or understand it from the perspective from which they can see how powerful synergy is to the growth of their business. But that's about to change. In this book, I want to help as many entrepreneurs as are reading this book to lift the blindfold from their eyes and get them to see the new light of synergy in the core areas of their businesses, where they can implement it and quickly grow and become profitable. Synergy is not just for big corporations with deep pockets, large teams, and sophisticated strategies that make them able to make industry shaking synergistic moves. We are going to explore synergy at the microlevel… The level where it even matters more for small businesses and entrepreneurs like you. Let’s begin!
Download or read book The Synergy Trap written by Mark L. Sirower and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2010-05-11 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With acquisition activity running into the trillions of dollars, it continues to be a favorite for corporate growth strategy, but creating shareholder value remains the most elusive outcome of these corporate strategies—after decades of research and billions of dollars paid in advisory fees, why do these major decisions continue to destroy value? Building on his groundbreaking research first cited in Business Week, Mark L. Sirower explains how companies often pay too much—and predictably never realize the promises of increased performance and competitiveness—in their quest to acquire other companies. Armed with extensive evidence, Sirower destroys the popular notion that the acquisition premium represents potential value. He provides the first formal and functional definition for synergy -- the specific increases in performance beyond those already expected for companies to achieve independently. Sirower's refreshing nuts-and-bolts analysis of the fundamentals behind acquisition performance cuts sharply through the existing folklore surrounding failed acquisitions, such as lack of "strategic fit" or corporate culture problems, and gives managers the tools to avoid predictable losses in acquisition decisions. Using several detailed examples of recent major acquisitions and through his masterful integration and extension of techniques from finance and business strategy, Sirower reveals: -The unique business gamble that acquisitions represent -The managerial challenges already embedded in current stock prices -The competitive conditions that must be met and the organizational cornerstones that must be in place for any possibility of synergy -The precise Required Performance Improvements (RPIs) implicitly embedded in acquisition premiums and the reasons why these RPIs normally dwarf realistic performance gains -The seductiveness and danger of sophisticated valuation models so often used by advisers The Synergy Trap is the first exposé of its kind to prove that the tendency of managers to succumb to the "up the ante" philosophy in acquisitions often leads to disastrous ends for their shareholders. Sirower shows that companies must meticulously plan—and account for huge uncertainties—before deciding to enter the acquisition game. To date, Sirower's work is the most comprehensive and rigorous, yet practical, analysis of the drivers of acquisition performance. This definitive book will become required reading for managers, corporate directors, consultants, investors, bankers, and academics involved in the mergers and acquisitions arena.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever heard the phrase "That company is successful in spite of itself"? It suggests that a company is making money but is run incredibly badly. Looking behind the curtain into its processes and methods would likely reveal that its success is based on an unstable foundation-a foundation that could topple at any moment, effectively plowing the company into the ground. These pages uncover the secrets of management that are at the core of a strong business foundation. By properly aligning and managing the three main functions of a business-direction, strategy, and execution-any company, regardless of size, can maximize its potential. In doing so, it solidifies its foundation and achieves a sustainable position to weather whatever challenges might arise.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The new M&A bible. Few actions can change the value of a company—and its competitive future—as quickly and dramatically as an acquisition. Yet most companies fail to create shareholder value from these deals, and in many cases they destroy it. It doesn't have to be this way. In The Synergy Solution, Deloitte's Mark Sirower and Jeff Weirens show acquirers how to develop and execute an M&A strategy—end to end—that not only avoids the pitfalls that so many companies fall into but also creates real, long-term shareholder value. This strategy includes how to: Become a prepared "always on" acquirer Test the investment thesis and DCF valuation of a deal Plan for a successful Announcement Day, and properly communicate synergy promises to investors and other stakeholders Realize those promised synergies through integration planning and post-close execution Manage change and build a new, combined organization Sirower and Weirens provide invaluable background to those considering M&A, laying out the issues they have to consider, how to analyze them, and how to plan and execute the deal effectively. They also show those who have already started the process of M&A how to maximize their chances of success. There's an art and a science to getting mergers and acquisitions right, and this powerful book provides the insights and strategies acquirers need to find success at every stage of an often complex and perilous process.

This book was released on 2013-10 with total page 77 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Business Development, Mergers and Acquisitions (MandA) have become an increasingly attractive growth opportunity among companies over a long period of time. Nowadays, there is hardly a day where current developments of ongoing MandA transactions or speculations about presumed MandA deals cannot be followed in the daily press.It is proved that a huge number of MandA did not deliver on their promises. The majority of failed MandA are a result of mismanagement during the Post Merger Integration (PMI) when processes have to be adjusted, personnel need to be teamed up and corporate cultures have to be reconciled.This study deals predominantly with aspects of synergy management whereby the main focus is on synergy tracking as a support function of the synergy management. An emphasis is on the analysis of realization efforts that need to be done by the management during the PMI. To provide a solution and ease the aforementioned issues of synergy realization, a synergy tracking tool, which serves as an effective support instrument during the PMI is developed.

Download or read book The Synergy of Business Theory and Practice written by Alkis Thrassou and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-08-07 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The lack of congruence between theory and practice in business remains a widely discussed topic. This lack of synergy is quietly and elusively becoming the Achilles' heel of contemporary scholarly business research and, by extension, of business in general. Focusing on the deviation of means and ends between business theory and practice, this book comprises thirteen chapters, which present an array of theoretical and geographical contexts, and aim to bring scholarly thinking and scientific analysis together with managerial rationale and practical applications. Presenting valuable insights and demonstrating an equalised perception of the theorisation of practice, and reversely, the practicality of theory, this innovative book signifies a new philosophy of scientific work and provides thought-provoking reading for scholars in a range of business sub-disciplines.

Corporations operating internationally and establishing foreign subsidiaries are facing the obligation as well as the challenge to profit from cross-border interaction. However, potential synergetic benefits provided by the international environment are accompanied by even more demanding challenges. This study elaborates to which extend German small and medium-sized manufacturing businesses could benefit from the implementation of a strategic cross-border synergy management. The study is based on a single case study deriving the research hypotheses and a survey investigating cross-border interaction throughout a sample of small and medium-sized manufacturing businesses. Based on the research findings, this paper proposes a holistic framework, designed for strategists of small and medium-sized manufacturing business. It outlines the establishment of the cross-border synergy management concept as part of the corporate strategy and the efficient and effective management of international interaction. ‘Synergies are not realized by themselves - they have to be identified and actively developed within a professionally coordinate process. Management of synergy seeking organizations is asked for intensive efforts beyond daily operations' (Weber and Roventa, 2006).
