Book excerpt: “Build a better brew by mastering 10 manual methods, from French Press to Chemex, with this comprehensive guide.” —Imbibe Magazine Named a top food & drink book of 2017 by Food Network, Wired, Sprudge, and Booklist This comprehensive but accessible handbook is for the average coffee lover who wants to make better coffee at home. Unlike other coffee books, this one focuses exclusively on coffee—not espresso—and explores multiple pour-over, immersion, and cold-brew techniques on 10 different devices. Thanks to a small but growing number of dedicated farmers, importers, roasters, and baristas, coffee quality is at an all-time high. But for nonprofessionals, achieving café quality at home can seem out of reach. With dozens of equipment options, conflicting information on how to use that equipment, and an industry language that, at times, doesn’t seem made for the rest of us, it can be difficult to know where to begin. Craft Coffee: A Manual, written by a coffee enthusiast for coffee enthusiasts, provides all the information readers need to discover what they like in a cup of specialty coffee—and how to replicate the perfect cup day after day. From the science of extraction and brewing techniques to choosing equipment and deciphering coffee bags, Craft Coffee focuses on the issues—cost, time, taste, and accessibility—that home coffee brewers negotiate and shows that no matter where you are in your coffee journey, you can make a great cup at home. “Engaging and fun . . . I really can’t recommend Craft Coffee: A Manual enough. If you’re even mildly curious about brewing coffee at home, it’s absolutely worth a read.” —BuzzFeed

Organizations of all types face unprecedented challenges in dealing with workplace violence, internal and external theft, robbery and crimes of all varieties. These organizations need help in dealing with these challenges, and are reaching out to independent security consultants to assist them. Operating an independent security consulting practice can be a profitable and rewarding business for those with the right skills. Many people retiring from law enforcement, military, or security careers would like to enter the security consulting profession, but don’t know how. These people have extensive skills in security and loss prevention, but don’t know how to translate these skills into a successful security consulting practice. While they have some idea about the type of services that they would like to provide, they have no idea of how to go about selling these services, what to charge for them, or how to run a profitable security consulting business. It is for these people that this book was written. Within this book, Michael A. Silva, an independent security consultant with over thirty years of experience, provides practical “how-to” advice on how to start and run a successful security consulting practice.

Within this book, Michael tells you what works – and more importantly, what doesn’t work. This book is specifically written for the person starting a one-person security consulting practice, and answers questions such as: - What types of skills do I need to be successful? - What types of licenses and certifications do I need? - What should I name my business? - Do I need a website? - What types of insurance do I need? - Should I rent an office, or work out of my home? - How much should I charge? - How do I sell my services and get consulting jobs? - How do I write a proposal? - What consulting services should I offer? - How much money do I need to get started? - What steps should I take before I quit my present job? - Can I start my consulting practice part-time while I’m still working? - How do I grow my practice and take it to the next level? - What are some common mistakes made by new consultants and how can I avoid them?

The 5 Week Plan” is a detailed, practical guide, inspired by 5* hospitality best practices, for entrepreneurs and small-business owners to better serve their employees and customers. It leads with the vision that great quality service should be normalized, making it possible to have attentive and professional interactions across all customer-facing businesses, regardless of their scale and level of luxury or simplicity. Along with a structured and practical approach to change, allocating the necessary importance to the follow-up steps as well (reinforcement and celebration), the guide includes: Self-audits to assess the current state of your employee engagement or customer satisfaction; A Facilitator Guide to help you streamline the training; A Participant Workbook to serve as the foundation for your team members' training; An abundance of examples to inspire you, based on a practical study case; Useful exercises and templates to support your team’s efforts. So, Take What You Need and Join the Movement to Normalize Great Service! If you are a small business owner in the customer-facing service industry, a servicepreneur, then you are the leader, everything will reflect your actions and decisions. So, TAKE WHAT YOU and your team NEED to exceed those expectations! Appreciate and celebrate more, listen to the emotional and physical voice of your employees to better care for them, and listen to the needs and wishes of your customers to guide your service. If you are a freelancer or a solopreneur, you are a one-(wo)man-show being at the same time the business, the employee, the brand, and the values. TAKE WHAT YOU NEED to shape your skills and create experiences rather than provide services. Answer that call, write that email, connect in that meeting, and deliver that project at its best level! Select the gestures, words, tools, and mentalities that add value to your work. If you are a service professional, I admire your dedication to self-development. TAKE WHAT YOU NEED to upgrade your many talents, become even more valuable on the market, and declare yourself an experienced curator because that’s what you are! If you are a customer (and all of us are customers, daily!) respect yourself by not accepting service below expectations, and appreciate the service employees' continuous effort to create experiences. TAKE WHAT YOU NEED, know what you deserve, and don’t settle for less!
