Free: Death of a Yellow Page Salesman: From Lost to Found — Filled to Overflowing

October 31, 2022 By

Paul Neustrom the author of “Death of a Yellow Page Salesman”

Having advised and consulted over 10,000 business owners never prepared me for hitting the lowest point in my career. For over 40 years working mostly in marketing and advertising in yellow page directories, I found Google had effectively destroyed my career. Recovering from that was not an instant process but I describe the struggles and triumphs of that journey in this book. My mission now is to help entrepreneurs and business owners to dominate in marketing through: KillingItOnline.com

Among the vast array of self-help books that promote their own methods of being successful, very few speak of an understanding of effective communication and why these principles work. It is transformational when we understand the way we communicate with others, which is oftentimes governed by how we talk to ourselves. Marketing is my specialty, and I am writing this book to show how the power of words will change your life.

Through this book, you will learn how to grow and transform your business and life by gaining inspiration from the small, still voice of God. Going from lost to found is something; not only business owners do, but that we can do for our own lives. Filled to overflowing is a whole other story.

See my #1 Bestselling Book on Amazon called “Coaching Inc” with lead author Ray Brehm. My chapter was his favorite and is called “TOPGUN Coaching.” Free on Kindle.

Free: Roth Conversion Secrets: The 5 Biggest Mistakes IRA Millionaires Make…and seven questions to determine if you’re leaving a fortune at the doorstep of the IRS

October 17, 2022 By

The subject of converting your IRA savings into Roth IRAs seems to be very controversial – and it shouldn’t be. The established paradigms about when to convert and how much to convert are almost as useless as the popular opinions about which tax bracket one should convert into. And these false beliefs lead to several mistakes when doing Roth conversions.

After nearly four decades as a financial advisor, and more than thirteen years of specializing in Roth conversions, the author wants to reveal the biggest mistakes that are made and offer specific education to help the reader determine if they would benefit from conversions. The book is as much a ‘how to’ guide as it is a collection of real life stories that illustrate the power of getting Roth conversions ‘right’. Free on Kindle.

Free: Pay The Price: Creating Ethical Entrepreneurial Success Through Passion, Pain and Purpose

August 30, 2022 By

The truth is that despite all our best efforts, most new businesses still fail. Starting a business is tough. It’s even tougher building one with strong ethical foundations. Up to 90 percent of UK and US startups fail by the 10th year. This trend is even worse in developing countries such as in Africa, which incidentally is the most entrepreneurial continent in the world.

Strong foundations are impossible without going through the mill. The process. Highs and lows, shame and pain. This dark side of entrepreneurship is not highlighted enough in the literature, possibly contributing to these high failure rates.

There are plenty of business books about success out there. There aren’t nearly enough business books about failure and how sustained perseverance through pain and repeated setbacks is often the prerequisite for true, lasting success.

This book is different.

You’ll learn how Passion, Pain, Time, and Purpose are vital keys to succeed-with plenty of pioneering insights from unusual sources: music, poetry, chemistry, sport, and stories. It even has its own dedicated Spotify playlist.

In here, you’ll discover:

The Five Principles of Ethical Entrepreneurship
The Three Universal Phases of Entrepreneurship: the Honeymoon, the Formative, and the Legacy.
How starting with who, NOT why is crucial for building a successful, enduring, ethical business
Overcoming the FOUR kinds of pain that lead to entrepreneurial failure with a brand new Flag Response Model.
Validating Your Business Model and Partner using real theories in Chemistry.
Earning the best Legacy type, the Pathfinder, out of the FOUR available options and much, much more.
