Book Description
Make 'Em Beg To Work For You: How to Find, Hire, Manage, Reward, and Release All-star Players to Help Make your Dream a Reality If you are like most solopreneurs or small business owners, the desire to make your dreams come true at a bigger level requires a team that can understand your vision and get stuff done. Unfortunately, it can seem impossible, especially with the cultural differences between Gen Xers and Millennials, to ever get people to effectively do what you want. This book reveals the reasons why it's so hard to build a team and a work culture that get results. In it you will learn: Exactly where you can find great employees who know how to take action and get it done The magical formula to writing job descriptions that generate just a few high-quality applications from only the best candidates How to conduct an interview process to make sure you don't ever make an expensive hiring mistake The key to saving staff members who aren't working out and for navigating the right timing to let go of an employee who isn't a fit The biggest mistake most employers make with compensation plans which leads to high turn over and low happiness (hint: it isn't about paying more) An eye-opening revelation about how long-established systems are falling apart at work, this book picks up where classics like Rocket Fuel and Good to Great no longer connect with the realities on the ground of building a team largely of millennials.

Book Description
How Can Make ‘Em Beg to Buy Help Me? If you’re trying to go broke, try to change people’s beliefs and sell them stuff. BUT... If you’re trying to get rich, PRE-SELL your stuff, shine insight where they haven’t looked and change people’s focus. Where the light of insight goes, focus follows. When focus changes, thoughts change (on their own). When thought changes, behavior changes. Then they credit you - forever! And all you did was give them a new place to look. I got rich by PRE-SELLING stuff. Where do I get them to look? I get people to focus on five focal points (The 5 P’s) before a “sales pitch.” When I invite them to look, the pitch is rarely needed, and people ask to buy before I even make them an offer. This book is the only how-to manual on the planet on how I’ve pre-sold everything from ladders to big-ticket coaching with prices up to $60,000 – with no sales calls! Preselling works for affiliate marketers, coaches, consultants, experts, physical product sellers or anyone who needs to market and sell something to keep the lights on! Rooting for Ya, Travis

Ways to Beg
Author: T. J. Sandella
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781625570215
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 95
Book Description
Poetry. "T.J. Sandella's poems have compassion, humor, grace, and range. He writes about himself and others, about music and sex and trees and Houdini, and death, of course, else how would we recognize him as a poet? But what moves most deeply across and within these poems is an engaging mixture of curiosity and conscience, a need to discover various kinds of truth, whether ethical or aspirational. In poems that 'keep bending / into questions,' he moves graciously across what he sees, what he has done and what he has imagined doing or becoming. One poem asks, 'How long / until we become what we've always wanted to be?' That none of the poems answer that question shouldn't be held against Sandella. That all of them try is to his credit and our immense benefit."--Bob Hicok "WAYS TO BEG risks the big questions. These poems ignite, they incinerate the straight line--the easy road to sweetness--to ask: What does it mean to be sanctified? In an avalanche of grit and tenderness, Sandella roils with heartbreaking humanity. He speaks in the voice of the working class, of salvation and truth as a wild act. This is a brave and beautiful book."--Jan Beatty "WAYS TO BEG aches as it gazes into the upended present with an unflinching eye, searching for a home. There's loneliness here, and a belief in companionship and the power of another to both heal us and to open us. I love the way surprise leads us to the familiar and the familiar to surprise, and how the poet renders the ordinary and the tragic as equals. Woven together into a fugue, each poem builds moment by intimate moment. These poems begin in the noise and commotion of the world and travel toward quiet reflection after the loss of a mother. It is here that the work crescendos, the pain of grief reminding us to hold each moment and to make it, in no small way, sacred."--Dorianne Laux

Begging for Change
Author: Robert Egger

Languages : en
Pages : 244
Book Description
You are a good person. You are one of the 84 million Americans who volunteer with a charity. You are part of a national donor pool that contributes nearly $200 billion to good causes every year. But you wonder: Why don't your efforts seem to make a difference? Fifteen years ago, Robert Egger asked himself this same question as he reluctantly climbed aboard a food service truck for a night of volunteering to help serve meals to the homeless. He wondered why there were still people waiting in line for soup in this day and age. Where were the drug counselors, the job trainers, and the support team to help these men and women get off the streets? Why were volunteers buying supplies from grocery stores when restaurants were throwing away unused fresh food every night? Why had politicians, citizens, and local businesses allowed charity to become an end in itself? Why wasn't there an efficient way to solve the problem? Robert knew there had to be a better way. In 1989, he started the D.C. Central Kitchen by collecting unused food from local restaurants, caterers, and hotels and bringing it back to a central location where hot, nutritious meals were prepared and distributed to agencies around the city. Since then, the D.C. Central Kitchen has been named one of President Bush Sr.'s Thousand Points of Light and has become one of the most respected and emulated nonprofit agencies in the world, producing and distributing more than 4,000 meals a day. Its highly successful 12-week job-training program equips former homeless transients and drug addicts with culinary and life skills to gain employment in the restaurant business. In Begging for Change, Robert Egger looks back on his experience and exposes the startling lack of logic, waste, and ineffectiveness he has encountered during his years in the nonprofit sector, and calls for reform of this $800 billion industry from the inside out. In his entertaining and inimitable way, he weaves stories from his days in music, when he encountered legends such as Sarah Vaughan, Mel Torme, and Iggy Pop, together with stories from his experiences in the hunger movement -- and recently as volunteer interim director to help clean up the beleaguered United Way National Capital Area. He asks for nonprofits to be more innovative and results-driven, for corporate and nonprofit leaders to be more focused and responsible, and for citizens who contribute their time and money to be smarter and more demanding of nonprofits and what they provide in return. Robert's appeal to common sense will resonate with readers who are tired of hearing the same nonprofit fund-raising appeals and pity-based messages. Instead of asking the "who" and "what" of giving, he leads the way in asking the "how" and "why" in order to move beyond our 19th-century concept of charity, and usher in a 21st-century model of change and reform for nonprofits. Enlightening and provocative, engaging and moving, this book is essential reading for nonprofit managers, corporate leaders, and, most of all, any citizen who has ever cared enough to give of themselves to a worthy cause.
