Rules of the Hunt: Real-World Advice for Entrepreneurial and Business Success

Rules of the Hunt: Real-World Advice for Entrepreneurial and Business Success

RULES OF THE HUNT is unlike any business book you’ll ever read. You won’t find any trendy advice, complex theories, or unrealistic promises. Rather, you’ll get the kind of honest, down-to-earth advice you would expect from a trusted mentor.

A successful entrepreneur with more than 30 years of experience in the trenches, Michael Dalton Johnson knows what it takes to build and run a profitable business. In Rules of the Hunt, he provides invaluable insight into everything you need to know—from practical skills like negotiating, recruiting, and time management to “soft” skills like mental agility and personal growth.

His advice will accelerate your growth and profits—delivered in a friendly, often humorous way through brief business anecdotes, short tutorials, case histories, an occasional rant, and a few horror stories. And, in true mentor form, Johnson helps you preserve both your physical and mental health during your chase for business success.

In essence, Rules of the Hunt teaches you what business schools can’t. Learn everything you need to know about:

  • LEADERSHIP—create loyalty, inspire trust, and motivate others
  • RELATIONSHIPS—form strong bonds with customers, employees, suppliers, and investors
  • SALES—engage and excite your buyers and close more sales
  • MARKETING—identify, locate, and promote like the pros
  • TECHNOLOGY—master today’s most important tool, the Internet
  • OPERATIONS—get things done the right way to grow profits
  • FORESIGHT—avoid pitfalls and plan for future challenges before they appear
  • SURVIVAL—maintain your health and sanity while pursuing your business goals

Successful entrepreneurship is both an art and a science, and in order to succeed you must know the rules. You’ll get them here.

With Rules of the Hunt, you have everything you need to outfox the competition, maintain your integrity, and actually enjoy your hunt for business success. Straightforward, easy to understand, pragmatic, and devoid of subjective theories and ideologies, Rules of the Hunt simply tells it like it is. Nothing more, nothing less.

People Buy You: The Real Secret to what Matters Most in Business

People Buy You: The Real Secret to what Matters Most in BusinessThe ultimate guide to relationships, influence and persuasion in 21st century business.

What is most important to your success as a sales or business professional? Is it education, experience, product knowledge, job title, territory, or business dress? Is it your company's reputation, product, price, marketing collateral, delivery lead times, in stock ratios, service guarantees, management strength, or warehouse location? Is it testimonials, the latest Forbes write up, or brand awareness? Is it the investment in the latest CRM software, business 2.0 tools, or social media strategy?

You could hire a fancy consulting firm, make the list longer, add some bullet points, put it into a PowerPoint presentation, and go through the whole dog and pony show. But at the end of the day there will be only one conclusion… None of the above! You see, the most important competitive edge for today's business professionals cannot be found on this list, your resume, or in any of your company's marketing brochures.

If you want to know the real secret to what matters most in business, just look in the mirror. That's right, it's YOU. Do these other things matter? Of course they do, but when all things are equal (and in the competitive world we live in today, things almost always are) People Buy You.

Your ability to build lasting business relationships that allow you to close more deals, retain clients, increase your income, and advance your career to rise the top of your company or industry, depends on your skills for getting other people to like you, trust you, and BUY YOU.

This break-through book pushes past the typical focus on mechanics and stale processes found in so many of today's sales and business books, and goes right to the heart of what matters most in 21st century business. Offering a straight forward, actionable formula for creating instant connections with prospects and customers, People Buy You will enable you to achieve a whole new level of success in your sales and business career. You'll discover:

  • Three relationship myths that are holding you back
  • Five levers that open the door to stronger relationships that quickly increase sales, improve retention, increase profits and advance your career
  • The real secret to making instant emotional connections that eliminate objections and move buyers to reveal their real problems and needs
  • How to anchor your business relationships and create loyal customers who will never leave you for a competitor
  • How to build your personal brand to improve your professional presence and stand-out in the market place

People Buy You is the new standard in the art of influence and persuasion. Few books have tackled the subject of interpersonal relationships in the business world in such a practical and down-to-earth manner, breaking what many perceive as a complex and frustrating process into easy, actionable steps that anyone can follow.

Stress Free Web Traffic: Ten Simple Strategies to Get More Targeted Traffic to Your Website or Blog

Stress Free Web Traffic: Ten Simple Strategies to Get More Targeted Traffic to Your Website or BlogStress Free Web Traffic: Ten Simple Strategies to Get More Targeted Traffic to Your Website or Blog

If you want more traffic - more quality visitors - to find your website, then this book is for you.

If you ever say, “I have a great business, and a great looking website. I just need more people to know about me...” then this book is for you.

If you are just starting out and want to know how people can find you online then this book is for you.

If you have a website - whether for your business or your community, you're probably not taking advantage of all the ways - and easy ways - that you can bring more people to your site and spread the word about what you do.

If you have a business then it is essential that you know how new customers can find you - customers who are looking for what you offer.

This book is a straightforward, non-technical guide to walk you through ten simple strategies for getting more traffic to your website or blog.

Ten easy to implement strategies. Strategies that don’t need you to understand meta tags or php or html or have a degree in computer programming!

Just simple ways to get more targeted traffic by doing things that you, as a business owner with a website, can do quickly and easily.

If you’re a small business owner, coach, consultant, expert, professional, blogger, online business owner, an information marketer, or any kind of solo-preneur, or even a non-profit organisation with a website or blog – then this is for you.

One of the most common questions I get is about traffic. How to get more of it. Why isn’t my website showing up in Google? But as soon as we go looking for answers it becomes very complex and confusing.

This book is for the non-technical expert. For the business owner or entrepreneur, or professional who wants to get the best out of their website, get more traffic, just by doing things they know how to do.

In this book, I demystify how you too can get tens, hundreds and even thousands more visitors to your site every day. I explain it in straightforward language and to present you with ten simple strategies to bring you more traffic to grow your business. Because, at the end of the day, it isn’t about the traffic – it’s about the impact of that website traffic on your business or on your organisation.

Inside this book, you’re going to learn how to bring more visitors to your website. But not just any visitors. You need highly qualified visitors, highly targeted traffic.

What does this mean? This means people who are looking for what you have to offer them – your ideal clients, your tribe or community, your potential partners and people who will promote you. You need to be in the right places so that the people you want to connect with can find you.

You’ll learn how to use solid, tried and tested methods to give you more of that quality traffic. And you can do this by doing things that you already like to do and know how to do – but you need to know how to do them so that they add value to your traffic flow.

You might have heard of some of the strategies, but you’re not applying them, or you rejected them because they sound too complicated.

I’ve broken down my best ideas into this simple 'how-to' guide. I walk you through exactly how to get going, and why, and what you must avoid along the way.

There are no tricks or gimmicks in this book. Just easy to implement ways to get more traffic so that you can get started right away.

And don’t do them all. Pick one or two, or three at the most. Decide how you can get started right away and just go for it. You’ll see your visitor numbers growing day by day. And as you get one strategy working for you, then simply layer on another. It’s all cumulative.

Get this book, read it, pick your favourite strategy and, above all, apply it. You’ll finally start to get ahead of everyone else, stop struggling and bring more loyal customers into your business

Essential Copywriting - How to Unleash the Power of Words to Get More Customers, Sales and Profits in Your Business

This book shows you how to use the power of words to sell more - to get more customers buying more products or services and making you more money.

You do that by solving more people's problems, at a profit.

We’ve all had direct mail through our doors or in our mailboxes, and what we call it will depend on whether we welcome it or not: when we’re interested in the contents we might call it ‘direct mail’ or ‘direct response mail’ and when we’re not it’s just ‘junk mail’.

Either way, the whole purpose of direct response copywriting is to persuade as many recipients as possible to respond in the desired way: usually to buy something, accept a free gift or join a mailing list of some kind.

Although this book talks mainly about traditional direct mail delivered by post, direct response copywriting can be used in other media too and you will be able to put much of what you read here to other purposes.

Secrets of Social Media Marketing: How to Use Online Conversations and Customer Communities to Turbo-Charge Your Business!

Secrets of Social Media Marketing is a handbook for marketers and business owners to use in deciding how to employ the new social media for online marketing.

The Lean Startup: How Today's Entrepreneurs Use Continuous Innovation to Create Radically Successful Businesses

Most startups fail. But many of those failures are preventable.  The Lean Startup is a new approach being adopted across the globe, changing the way companies are built and new products are launched.
Eric Ries defines a startup as an organization dedicated to creating something new under conditions of extreme uncertainty. This is just as true for one person in a garage or a group of seasoned professionals in a Fortune 500 boardroom. What they have in common is a mission to penetrate that fog of uncertainty to discover a successful path to a sustainable business.

The Lean Startup approach fosters companies that are both more capital efficient and that leverage human creativity more effectively.  Inspired by lessons from lean manufacturing, it relies on “validated learning,” rapid scientific experimentation, as well as a number of counter-intuitive practices that shorten product development cycles, measure actual progress without resorting to vanity metrics, and learn what customers really want. It enables a company to shift directions with agility, altering plans inch by inch, minute by minute.
