"Like any Silicon Valley startup, the business of life is not as glamorous as its Instagram account would make it seem. What do you do when planning is not an option? When control is out of your reach? You isolate the small stuff, experiment constantly, and use the results to lay a more sustainable foundation for the future. You validate your idealized vision by testing it out in bite-sized increments ... And inevitably, you experience a series of failures along the way, but those failures are key to your next success. Living a startup life is about maximizing flexibility and measuring on-going results, not avoiding failure or reaching one particular end goal. It's about embracing defeat, analyzing it, and failing up""--

A practical guide for community builders on building and scaling professional communities that thrive and transform the lives of the people within them through virtual and in-person events. Community is a hot topic in 2020. Enterprises, startups, investors, entrepreneurs, and creators are all jumping on board launching communities or building products for communities. This is especially timely given that a global pandemic has left people longing for human connection. And then there are the people like Mark Birch that just wanted to bring salespeople together. When Mark started the Enterprise Sales Forum, he had no big vision. It was just his way to convince salespeople and startup founders to meet and help each other. What started in a sweaty conference room for 50 people six years ago eventually blossomed into a community of 25,000 members and over 20 cities globally. Community-in-a-Box is a how-to guide into building and scaling a community from the ground up or reinvigorating existing communities. From the experiences of the Enterprise Sales Forum and other communities he launched, Mark weaves those stories into a book that leads you past the minefields and mistakes so you can confidently launch and grow a healthy community. Even though we all come to community building with our own motivations, the end result is a labor of love that positively impacts the lives of many. Through this book, you will also feel the impact of the power of community and what it takes to grab the spark and start a movement!

Love is the surprising emotion that company builders cannot afford to ignore. Genuine, heartfelt devotion and loyalty from customers — yes, love — is what propels a select few companies ahead. Think about the products and companies that you really care about and how they make you feel. You do not merely likethose products, you adore them. Consider your own emotions and a key insight is revealed: Love is central to business. Nobody talks about it, but it is obvious in hindsight. Lovability: How to Build a Business That People Love and Be Happy Doing It shares what Silicon Valley-based author and Aha! CEO Brian de Haaff knows from a career of founding successful technology companies and creating award-winning products. He reveals the secret to the phenomenal growth of Aha! and the engine that powers lasting customer devotion — a set of principles that he pioneered and named The Responsive Method. Lovability provides valuable lessons and actionable steps for product and company builders everywhere, including: • Why you should rethink everything you know about building a business • What a product really is • The magic of finding what your customers truly desire • How to turn business strategy and product roadmaps into customer love • Why you should chase company value, not valuation • Surveys to measure your company’s lovability Brian de Haaff has spent the last 20 years focused on business strategy, product management, and bringing disruptive technologies to market. And in preparation for writing this book, he interviewed well-known startup founders, product managers, executives, and CEOs at hundreds of name brand and agile organizations. Their experiences, along with headline-grabbing case studies (both inspiring successes and cautionary tales), will help readers discover how to build something that matters. Much has been written about how entrepreneurs build innovative products and successful businesses, but the author's message is original and refreshing. He convincingly explains that there is a better path forward — a people-first way grounded in love. In a business world that has increasingly emphasized hype over substance and get-big-at-any-cost thinking over profitable and sustainable growth, it's time for a new recipe for company success. Insightful, thought-provoking, and sometimes controversial, Lovability is the book that you turn to when you know there has to be a better way.

The first comprehensive account of the biggest wake-up call in the history of the entertainment business: the pivot to streaming. Go inside a disparate group of media and tech companies -- Disney, Apple, AT&T/WarnerMedia, Comcast/NBCUniversal and well-funded startup Quibi – as they scramble to mount multi-billion-dollar challenges to Netflix. After spotting Netflix and the deep-pocketed Amazon Prime Video a decade’s head start, rivals from the tech and start-up realm (Apple, Quibi) and traditional media (Disney, WarnerMedia, NBCUniversal) all decided to move mountains to enter the streaming game. At a cost of billions, each went after their own piece of the market, launching five new services in a seven-month span. And just as the derby was heating up, the coronavirus pandemic arrived, a black-swan event bringing short-term benefits but also stiff challenges. The battle for streaming supremacy may end up having more than one winner, but the cost and disruption to decades-old business models have also produced a lot of losers. Binge Times reveals the true costs of the vision quest as companies are turned inside-out and repeatedly redraw their org charts and strategic plans. Stretching from Silicon Valley to Hollywood to Wall Street, it is a mesmerizing, character-rich tale of hubris and ambition, as the fate of a century-old industry hangs in the balance.

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The final season of fantasy TV series Game of Thrones was premiered at Radio City Music Hall in New York City. It was a send-off to the most-watched show in the history of HBO. #2 The Radio City premiere was a bittersweet affair, as the company was undergoing a massive restructuring process. Richard Plepler, the company's longtime New York headquarters building's owner, had already packed his office and was about to leave the company. #3 John Stankey, the 57-year-old Eagle Scout who grew up in Southern California, was in charge of restructuring HBO and breaking down the silos that made Time Warner a collection of largely autonomous nation-states. He also wanted to take on his greatest enemy on its own turf: Netflix. #4 Standing in the Radio City lobby, Stankey looked relaxed in an unbuttoned blue oxford dress shirt. He ate small handfuls of popcorn from one of the red-and-white-striped boxes being handed out to attendees.

Master the science of funnel building to grow your company online with sales funnels in this updated edition from the $100M entrepreneur and co-founder of the software company ClickFunnels. DotCom Secrets is not just another "how-to" book on internet marketing. This book is not about getting more traffic to your website--yet the secrets you'll learn will help you to get exponentially more traffic than ever before. This book is not about increasing your conversions--yet these secrets will increase your conversions more than any headline tweak or split test you could ever hope to make. Low traffic or low conversion rates are symptoms of a much greater problem that's a little harder to see (that's the bad news), but a lot easier to fix (that's the good news). What most businesses really have is a "funnel" problem. Your funnel is the online process that you take your potential customers through to turn them into actual customers. Everyone has a funnel (even if they don't realize it), and yours is either bringing more customers to you, or repelling them. In this updated edition, Russell Brunson, CEO and co-founder of the multimillion-dollar software company ClickFunnels, reveals his greatest secrets to generating leads and selling products and services after running tens of thousands of his own split tests. Stop repelling potential customers. Implement these processes, funnels, frameworks, and scripts now so you can fix your funnel, turn it into the most profitable member of your team, and grow your company online.
