Book excerpt: Insurance Agency Optimization was written by a multi-line insurance agency owner, for multi-line insurance agency owners. It was written to help agency owners understand that they are not alone. The reality is almost nobody who owns an insurance agency ever planned on owning an insurance agency.

Then, I got sick of working for somebody else and I thought it would be awesome to own my own business, create my own schedule, make tons of money, travel the world and golf a lot. So I opened my own insurance agency. The problem is insurance agency owners who jumped into this industry during the 21st century have a much different looking opportunity than those who came before them. It's still a tremendous opportunity, but the rewards aren't realized until several years of dues are paid. This book was written to save agency owners time and money as an alternative to present day trainings and seminars which offer quick fixes, silver bullets and shortcuts to success; none of which exist.

Download or read book Burn the Business Plan written by Carl J. Schramm and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2018-01-16 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Business startup advice from the former president of the Ewing Marion Kaufmann Foundation and cofounder of Global Entrepreneurship Week and StartUp America, this “thoughtful study of ‘how businesses really start, grow, and prosper’...dispels quite a few business myths along the way” (Publishers Weekly). Carl Schramm, the man described by The Economist as “The Evangelist of Entrepreneurship,” has written a myth-busting guide packed with tools and techniques to help you get your big idea off the ground. Schramm believes that entrepreneurship has been misrepresented by the media, business books, university programs, and MBA courses. For example, despite the emphasis on the business plan in most business schools, some of the most successful companies in history—Apple, Microsoft, Google, Facebook, and hundreds of others—achieved success before they ever had a business plan. Burn the Business Plan punctures the myth of the cool, tech-savvy twenty-something entrepreneur with nothing to lose and venture capital to burn. In fact most people who start businesses are juggling careers and mortgages just like you. The average entrepreneur is actually thirty-nine years old, and the success rate of entrepreneurs over forty is five times higher than that of those under age thirty. Entrepreneurs who come out of the corporate world often have discovered a need for a product or service and have valuable contacts to help them get started. Filled with stories of successful entrepreneurs who drew on real-life experience rather than academic coursework, Burn the Business Plan is the guide to starting and running a business that will actually work for the rest of us.
