This book was released on 2012-01-05 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do we really know the critical phenomena that are linked to how enterprises function and the dynamics of their relationships with customers, suppliers and competitors? Are their decision-making processes founded upon a set of performance measurements that were accurately designed and systematically elaborated? The above questions are the focus of this book, as is the following premise: enterprises need a system to measure their critical performances so they can be managed effectively; metaphorically speaking, enterprises need a “management dashboard” to serve as a navigational aid. A dashboard to show – with as few distortions as possible – the pattern of key variables that characterizes the specific formula enterprises use to face their competitive and social environment.

Download or read book Eccentric Marketing written by Said Baaghil and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2007-12 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Eccentric Marketing, marketing strategist and entrepreneur Said A. Baaghil outlines the framework for a forward-thinking new consumer model aimed at transforming the way products and services are marketed in the Middle East. Baaghil illustrates how modern-day CEOs of Middle Eastern corporations must radically alter their traditional marketing programs in order to survive the new global economy. Using real-world examples, Eccentric Marketing analyzes the marketing failures and successes of companies operating in the Middle East and makes a convincing argument about their vital need to implement consumer-based marketing. Baaghil also demonstrates how many common character faults of Middle Eastern CEOs can not only damage a brand, but ultimately lead to its complete demise. Eccentric Marketing details the current market reality for small- to medium-sized companies in the Middle East and explains why most of these companies fail when promoting their products in the Western world. Drawing from actual business cases in Saudi Arabia, Baaghil proves that companies must learn how to instill their brand permanently in the consumer consciousness in order to survive and thrive. Baaghil's visionary concepts for building and integrating a powerful brand make Eccentric Marketing the must-have marketing guide for leading-edge companies operating in the Middle East.

Download or read book The Facts of Business Life written by Bill McBean and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2012-10-09 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: IF YOU BELIEVE THAT: Being your own boss can be a great career choice Success is what you decide it is Doing what you have a passion and talent for can be very profitable Monetary risk, hard work, and new ideas should be financially rewarded Understanding the business basics every successful owner focuses on—and in what order—would be beneficial Success works for you only after you’ve worked for it Marketplace battles are won before they are played Knowing what owning a business is really like would make ownership success a lot easier Change can create great opportunities Knowing when to exit a business is as important a life and business decision as becoming an entrepreneur in the first place THEN THE FACTS OF BUSINESS LIFE IS FOR YOU! Written by a successful business owner with four decades of experience, The Facts of Business Life is full of real-world concepts that owners must use and embrace if they want to become and stay successful. This multiple award-winning book has been endorsed by some of America’s top business leaders, like Steve Forbes and Ken Fisher, and has been recognized as “one of the best five business books of the year” and “a must read for entrepreneurs or those wanting to be one.” McBean begins with clear explanations and real-life examples of the seven Facts of Business Life that every successful business owner knows and executes consistently, including exactly what they are as well as how and when to use them. He then goes on to show how those facts impact on the five levels every successful business passes through, from “Ownership and Opportunity” to “Moving On When It’s Time to Go,” explaining that while the facts themselves remain the same, as a business becomes successful and moves through its life cycle, the way they are applied must change to fit changing circumstances. But there are even more reasons why this breakthrough business book is a must read, including: Its principles are based on the author’s own experience in starting and running successful businesses in a variety of industries. It shows that the most successful businesspeople create profitable opportunities rather than wait for them to present themselves. It enables readers to analyze the likelihood of their own success based on the characteristics most successful owners have. It reveals the #1 priority for all owners and their employees, and why every owner needs to continually focus on it (Hint: it’s not being profitable). It emphasizes that becoming successful is no guarantee that success will last, and that success itself can be a trap that eventually leads to failure. It shows that a business’s culture isn’t just a mission statement but also the processes created to operate the business and the employees who implement them. It discusses the steps that must be taken even before a business is started to increase the odds of its becoming a lasting success. It covers every step in a business’ life cycle, including the last one, showing that the best time to exit a business is when you don’t have to, and that unless you pick that time, someone else will. MANY BUSINESS BOOKS INCREASE THEIR READERS’ KNOWLEDGE—THE FACTS OF BUSINESS LIFE NOT ONLY INCREASES THAT KNOWLEDGE, IT SHOWS YOU HOW TO TURN IT INTO PROFITS.

Download or read book Business Capital 101 written by Roberta A. Pellant and published by Roberta Pellant Consulting. This book was released on 2021-04-26 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to define the process and protocols of the TASASS™ score. It also serves as the textbook for the USCGA™ TASASS™ certification course. It was written as a manual for students, entrepreneurs, finance professionals, advisors, and consultants. It defines the types of capital available and documentation requirements to achieve “success” in the capital marketplace. "Success" is defined as a trifecta of: 1) the enterprise acquiring capital; 2) the business becoming successful and 3) the capital source(s) receiving a positive outcome. Business Capital 101 provides clarity in an otherwise complicated environment of gaining access to capital for qualified enterprises. Our mission is to provide a compliant, professional, time-sensitive, cost-conscious, and realistic approach to the business finance process. We accomplish this mission by the implementation of a due diligence process known as the TASASS™ score. The TASASS™ score was developed as a result of a study of more than 300 enterprises engaged by me since 2008 wherein, I was able to determine the more than 300 common attributes amongst successful and failed ventures. The TASASS™ score is a combination of a Transaction Analysis™ (TA), a Situation Analysis™ (SA) implemented in a Software (S) that results in a Score (S). The TASASS™ score is a standardized objective due diligence process that serves capital markets during the enterprise vetting phase of capitalization. The software was created based on a 10-year study of 300 applicants. The goal of the proprietary Software as a Service (SaaS) is to identify opportunities that achieve a TASASS™ score in excess of 92.5%, known as “TASASS Prime™.” TASASS™ is an acronym for: Transaction Analysis Situation Analysis Scoring Software™. The TASASS™ score was developed by Tony Drexel Smith through the financial and human capital resources of: TASASS, Inc, The Association of Blue Moon Advisors, Blue Moon Advisors, Inc., Blue Moon Consortium, Inc., US Capital Global, SUMATICI, Inc., and TD Smith & Associates. Enterprises that have raised capital successfully have the following commonalities: they sought the right type of capital for their stage of development and ability to repay; they created documentation that speaks to the correct capital; and they earned a minimum of 925 out of the 1,000 points possible in our TASASS™ score.

Download or read book Psychological Ownership in Family Businesses written by Fabian Bernhard and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2011 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book includes three essays covering the ownership perceptions individuals experience in family businesses. It advances current knowledge on the organizational factors anteceding individuals' psychological ownership as well as the attitudinal and behavioral consequences. Investigating overly strong psychological ownership, the first essay provides insights into the phenomenon of aging family business owner-managers who face difficulties in 'letting go', i. e. passing on leadership to their successor(s). The second essay offers a study of family business owner-managers' leadership styles and their influence on nonfamily employees' psychological ownership of the family business as well as individuals' motivation and performance. Given the special situation of nonfamily members working in family businesses, the third essay examines the effects of employees' and nonfamily managers' justice perceptions on both the ownership experience and commitment to the family business. The works presented in this book built a basis for several publications, such as articles in the Journal of Family Business Strategy and Group & Organization Management. Furthermore, they have been presented at various international conferences, have been nominated for a "most creative paper" award, and have contributed to the Academy of Management Best Paper Proceedings. The findings not only constitute valuable additions to current research in management and organizational psychology, but can also provide benefit for those interested in family businesses. Managers, owners, and consultants working in or for family businesses would likely gain from the practical implications.
