Want to know the "dirty" little secrets and what can be done about them? Don't want your business destroyed by angry past customers (or jealous competitors pretending to be angry past customers) saying horrible things about you on the Internet? Need to neutralize and minimize damage being done to your reputation now or in the future, but don't know how? Been hit with some bad press and traditional public relations, crisis communication and crisis management strategies won't make your problems go away? Online reputation management, when implemented correctly, with a step by step plan you can easily follow, can help your business repair, build and preserve the value of your name and brand online. This book shows you how. WHAT'S IN THE BOOK? It offers a well organized accounting of popular Internet Boogeyman strategies and explains the tactical do's and don'ts needed to counteract them. It includes simple (not overly technical) plans, strategies, tips and tactics using web marketing strategy and social media marketing secrets that every business owner needs to know. So entrepreneurs and managers don't get overwhelmed, the well-organized information is presented using easy to follow, step by step blueprints they can use to resurrect and protect their reputations online. It's a quick read containing real-world examples, helpful and practical tips. WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU? Peace of Mind. Profit. Dignity. We know business owners who were unable to sleep at night because they were so worried about the damage being done to their businesses by an Internet Boogeyman. Because they had no idea what, if anything they could do about it, there was no relief for their anxiety, fear or hopelessness. Your biggest takeaway is probably going to be the peace of mind that happens when you are prepared to deal with almost anything a current or future Internet Boogeymen could throw at you. Even if you aren't a "techie" or expert at web marketing strategy, there are some fundamental things you can do to protect everything you've worked for. In summary, you will discover: Where and how an Internet Boogeyman is most likely to attack your reputation online (so you can be ready to counter their moves ahead of time). How to set up an "early warning monitoring system" that automatically lets you know when people are talking about you online (so you can respond quickly, appropriately and turn problems into opportunities). How to use social media for business and generate new leads and customers (so you can supercharge your Facebook marketing, Twitter marketing, YouTube marketing, Pinterest marketing and LinkedIn marketing results). How to build a "virtual force-field" around your name and reputation online (so harmful and damaging content posted by an Internet Boogeyman gets bounced so far down search engine result pages that hardly anyone will ever see them). The secrets of creating "search engine friendly" content in different formats (blogs, articles, videos, podcasts, social media posts, etc.) so your prospects find YOUR reasons to buy instead of an Internet Boogeyman's reasons why they shouldn't. How your advertising budget can be used against you (so you can prevent competitors from siphoning away YOUR business leads without your knowledge). The best social media and online marketing tools for automating and replacing the time consuming "grunt work" (so YOU get an unfair advantage over your online adversaries). The most common "knee-jerk" tactics and strategies that hurt more than they help (and why you should avoid them, even if they sound tempting.) What to do when traditional public relations, crisis communications and crisis management efforts don't make your problems go away. We hope you enjoy reading it.

Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER • The gripping story of Elizabeth Holmes and Theranos—one of the biggest corporate frauds in history—a tale of ambition and hubris set amid the bold promises of Silicon Valley, rigorously reported by the prize-winning journalist. With a new Afterword covering her trial and sentencing, bringing the story to a close. “Chilling ... Reads like a thriller ... Carreyrou tells [the Theranos story] virtually to perfection.” —The New York Times Book Review In 2014, Theranos founder and CEO Elizabeth Holmes was widely seen as the next Steve Jobs: a brilliant Stanford dropout whose startup “unicorn” promised to revolutionize the medical industry with its breakthrough device, which performed the whole range of laboratory tests from a single drop of blood. Backed by investors such as Larry Ellison and Tim Draper, Theranos sold shares in a fundraising round that valued the company at more than $9 billion, putting Holmes’s worth at an estimated $4.5 billion. There was just one problem: The technology didn’t work. Erroneous results put patients in danger, leading to misdiagnoses and unnecessary treatments. All the while, Holmes and her partner, Sunny Balwani, worked to silence anyone who voiced misgivings—from journalists to their own employees.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bronze Medal Winner, 10th International Manga Awards This historically grounded manga follows the ninja Nagata Saburo as he teaches his son, Hisaaki, the weapons, secret tactics, and values of the ninja. Based on the real-life writings of the famous ninja Hattori Hanzo, Secrets of the Ninja combines a familiar coming-of-age story with a historically accurate background of political intrigue and Sengoku-period Japanese culture. As Hisaaki grows from boy to man, Wilson skillfully interweaves real lessons, weapons, and skills used by ninja in feudal Japan, depicted with detail by artist Akiko Shimojima. All of the tactics Saburo teaches to his son are drawn from the Shinobi Hiden, the most famous of the "ninja scrolls" written by Hattori Hanzo, general to the warlord Tokugawa Ieyasu and one of the most famous warriors in Japan. These scrolls provided practical instruction for professional ninja, but they also provide insightful theories of social relationships and human interaction, studying the nature of deception, falsehood, and self-protection. An extensive supplementary section written by Antony Cummins provides fascinating details on these scrolls and their practical lessons. Accessible, insightful, and exciting, Secrets of the Ninja is the perfect introduction to the world of samurai and shinobi warfare.

Download or read book Rumpelstiltskin s Secret written by Harry Rand and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-12-09 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everyone knows Rumpelstiltskin's story—or thinks they do. We heard it as children. We might affectionately remember the adult voices reciting the tale or recall the light in the room and the time of day when we enjoyed hearing this scripted performance. A grown-up's voice added roughness and pitch to mimic the characters, to murmur tension-filled passages, to pause drawing out the suspense between the Queen's guesses. Maybe the storyteller's voice finally rose to exult when shouting the discovered name or, drawing close, whispered it malevolently. Those long-ago readers intended to enchant us, sometimes to put us to sleep, and for a while we delighted in this magical performance. Then we grew up: obligated to attend to an adult's endless travails, we forgot little Rumpelstiltskin. But he eventually returned. Years later we told this story to our children joining a parade of generations stretching back—no one knows how far. We voluntarily enrolled in a long procession that greys toward the back of the line, blurred, nameless, and wispy before the figures pale translucent and finally become invisible. We became merely the foremost reciters of a tale whose narration enrolled us in a club whose rules we think we know, but don't really. This tale may count among the world's oldest dirty jokes. The punchline misplaced, over time its wickedly funny insights about adult life passed for childish nonsense.
