A playbook that empowers sales managers to think like CEOs and act like entrepreneurs At Salesforce.com, Elay Cohen created and executed the sales productivity programs that accelerated the company’s growth to a $3 billion–plus enterprise. The innovation delivered over these years by Elay and his team resulted in unprecedented sales productivity excellence. Based on that experience, Elay embarked on a journey to help every company in the world grow like Salesforce.com. After working with many organizations and further reflecting on his time at Salesforce.com, it became apparent that one key player was best positioned to accelerate growth in organizations: the first-line sales manager. Empowering sales managers to own and execute their own sales programs, as entrepreneurs would, became the focus of this book and his technology company. First-line sales managers are the backbone of every sales organization. They make it happen. They’re where the rubber meets the road in pipeline generation, revenue growth, and customer success. These sales managers serve as the voice of salespeople to organizations, and as the organizational voice back to salespeople. In this accessible guide, Cohen shares how sales managers can build an inspired, engaged team, equipping them with the tools they need to drive up sales productivity and grow the business. He reveals, among many other lessons, how you can nurture a winning sales culture; build world-class training programs that encourage salespeople to learn from each other; and execute sales processes, playbooks, and deals in a way that gives your salespeople the winning edge.

Judging by all the hoopla surrounding business plans, you'd think the only things standing between would-be entrepreneurs and spectacular success are glossy five-color charts, bundles of meticulous-looking spreadsheets, and decades of month-by-month financial projections. Yet nothing could be further from the truth. In fact, often the more elaborately crafted a business plan, the more likely the venture is to flop. Why? Most plans waste too much ink on numbers and devote too little to information that really matters to investors. The result? Investors discount them. In How to Write a Great Business Plan, William A. Sahlman shows how to avoid this all-too-common mistake by ensuring that your plan assesses the factors critical to every new venture: The people—the individuals launching and leading the venture and outside parties providing key services or important resources The opportunity—what the business will sell and to whom, and whether the venture can grow and how fast The context—the regulatory environment, interest rates, demographic trends, and other forces shaping the venture's fate Risk and reward—what can go wrong and right, and how the entrepreneurial team will respond Timely in this age of innovation, How to Write a Great Business Plan helps you give your new venture the best possible chances for success.

The 5-Minute Guide To Turning Your Business Idea Into A Success is for new entrepreneurs who have an idea for what they want to do/create/offer, but are not sure where to start. This guide aims to provide some quick guidance and reference points for these entrepreneurs to get a better idea of where to start, and what steps they should take to move their idea forward. This book, the second in the acclaimed "Wellington’s 5-Minute Guides For Success” series, covers in a short and easy to understand way, such topics as: ✔️ Ideation ✔️ Finding & Filling A Need ✔️ Turning Your Idea Into A Business ✔️ Validating Your Business ✔️ Creating Your Prototype/Mockup ✔️ Securing Funding ✔️ Introducing Your Product/Service To The World ✔️ Essential Resources You'll Need For Your Entrepreneurial Journey ⚜️ About The Wellington’s 5-Minute Guides For Success Series ⚜️ Roman Alexander Wellington decided to launch a series of beginner-focused, “short reads” style books, focused on the most essential areas of success that could be read quickly and referred back too often by new entrepreneurs. "Wellington's 5-Minute Guides For Success" Cover Topics Including: Entrepreneurship Mindset Leadership Business Branding & Personal Branding Content Marketing Digital Marketing While Mr. Wellington’s full-length books focus more in-depth on each subject area, the 5-Minute Guides are intended to provide beginner-friendly tips, strategies, explanations, and reference points. These guides are for readers who are looking for more information on one of the covered topic areas, but don’t have several hours to sit and read a full-length book on it. He hoped this “short read” style would help him reach readers just starting their entrepreneurial journey who may be interested in building businesses or brands of their own, and we’re looking for a simple way to start learning what was required. The books within the “Wellington’s 5-Minute Guides For Success” series are not intended to provide in-depth coverage of each topic, nor are they for readers with extensive previous experience (although they could certainly be helpful refreshers). They are intended to help a beginner understand the basics, and help aspiring entrepreneurs avoid getting “information overload”. By providing shorter, less complex, and more easily digestible information, Mr. Wellington hoped that it would be enough to spark the interest of his readers, encourage them to learn more, and provide the initial knowledge needed for them to take their first steps in their entrepreneurial journey.

While Mr. Wellington says these are intended for the "new" entrepreneur, more experienced entrepreneurs may still want to give these a read as well.

We loved how the "Wellington's 5-Minute Guides For Success" series perfectly breaks down the basics for new entrepreneurs, and do so in simple and easy-to-understand ways." - Ecommerece News Journal ⚜️ About The Author: Roman Alexander Wellington ⚜️ Roman Alexander Wellington is an American business magnate who has founded nine companies, comprising dozens of brands, and has 20-years of experience in Digital Marketing, Public Relations, and Corporate Branding.
