Download or read book Rework written by Jason Fried and published by Crown Currency. This book was released on 2010-03-09 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rework shows you a better, faster, easier way to succeed in business. Most business books give you the same old advice: Write a business plan, study the competition, seek investors, yadda yadda. If you're looking for a book like that, put this one back on the shelf. Read it and you'll know why plans are actually harmful, why you don't need outside investors, and why you're better off ignoring the competition. The truth is, you need less than you think. You don't need to be a workaholic. You don't need to staff up. You don't need to waste time on paperwork or meetings. You don't even need an office. Those are all just excuses. What you really need to do is stop talking and start working. This book shows you the way. You'll learn how to be more productive, how to get exposure without breaking the bank, and tons more counterintuitive ideas that will inspire and provoke you. With its straightforward language and easy-is-better approach, Rework is the perfect playbook for anyone who’s ever dreamed of doing it on their own. Hardcore entrepreneurs, small-business owners, people stuck in day jobs they hate, victims of "downsizing," and artists who don’t want to starve anymore will all find valuable guidance in these pages.

The authors provide a rigorous process for stress testing your Plan A and determining how to alter it so your business makes money, solves customers' needs, and endures. You'll discover strategies for: -Identifying the leap-of-faith assumptions hidden in your plan -Testing those assumptions and unearthing why the plan might not work -Reconfiguring the five components of your business model-revenue model, gross margin model, operating model, working capital model, and investment model-to create a sounder Plan B. Filled with success stories and cautionary tales, this book offers real cases illustrating the authors' unique process. Whether your idea is for a start-up or a new business unit within your organization, Getting to Plan B contains the road map you need to reach success.

Book Running a Successful Business and Life

Download or read book Running a Successful Business and Life written by Alyssa Jelle and published by ISBN Services. This book was released on 2021-07-28 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you are looking for a quick and simple book to either help you get your business back on track or to start a new business, then this will be a good read for you! There is no doubt that owning your own business is tough! But, there are ways to manage it so that you do not create more stress for yourself but to also manage it so that you can still have a life. I have seen so many business owners try to do it all because they are afraid to delegate jobs to their staff or management or in other words they want to be in control. This is not good and gets you into trouble with your business in the long run. It's important to understand what really is important when running a business and you might be surprised on what you learn because it may not be what you thought it would be. This book is great for beginners but also for those who just want to learn. My name is Alyssa and I sold my business in May 2021. My first goal after selling was to write a book on how to run a good business and this was a dream of mine about 10 years ago. Now that I have more time on my hands I can look back at my experience and share it with the world. My new favorite past time is helping others accomplish their business goals. Why? Because I know that "lonely at the top" feeling is not easy when you feel like no one understands you or your position.
