Are you an entrepreneur or small business owner? If so, keep reading.
Do you have documented business processes for your company?
Do you know what a business process is?
If you answered “no” to either of the above questions, then you need to make a low cost investment in my new e-book that could teach you how to make and save more money in your small business, especially if you provide a service.
The e-book is called Keeping Score – How to Use Business Processes to Increase Cash Flow and features the real-life story of Olivia Dumonde, a muralist in San Francisco, CA who believes she has a unique problem – although she has more business than she can handle, she does not have the revenue to show for it. As you read the story, you will be able to put yourself in Olivia’s shoes as she transforms her business operations by identifying key business processes to document and later using flowcharts of those processes to visualize the source of her cash flow problem.
Whether you are experiencing the same problem as Olivia or not, you are guaranteed to learn a methodical, 7-step approach for business process documentation and how you can immediately apply it to solve some of your small business’ most critical challenges.

Considering the dismal small business success rate statistics reported by the SBA, we should all be aware that entrepreneurship is a game. Having the right players (staff), reliable equipment (tools) and a rock-solid, executable strategy (business processes) are paramount to not only staying in the game, but winning!
