Free: Unstoppable Culture: A Step-By-Step Guide to Create a Relentless, Results-Driven, High-Performance Team

September 30, 2024 By

The answer to your problems isn’t to build a better team… It’s to provide better scaffolding for the one you already have. Ready to discover the secret?
One week, your team’s on fire, and you’re sure you must be doing something right… but then the next, everything just feels… mediocre.

You don’t want your team to see your frustration, but how is it that they’re so variable? Why can’t they be consistent?

Here’s the problem: You likely got to the position you’re in today because you’re highly motivated and disciplined about your work… and now you’re managing people who don’t necessarily possess those qualities.

You need your team to perform at a consistently high level, but not every member has the work ethic you had when you were in their position.

This means you can’t rely on them to take the same steps you would to ensure success…

You need to create a culture that nourishes and supports the average person so they can excel – and hopefully, along the way, build up some of that dedication and motivation they currently seem to be lacking.

But before you rush to book more training, you should know that training is distinct from coaching and development… and it isn’t what your team needs.

What they need is coaching to perform better, and systems in place that will empower them to act toward your goals. Free on Kindle.

Free: Lead Like a Person: Not Like a Position

September 23, 2024 By

Unlock the true potential of front-line leaders! This transformative guide is the essential companion for emerging leaders taking their first steps into people management, as well as for those supervising front-line leaders.

In an era where traditional hierarchical structures are fast becoming obsolete, leadership that connects on a human level has never been more crucial. Yet the way we develop leaders sets up first-time people leaders to lead more like a position than a
person.

Lead Like A Person Not Like A Position transcends the conventional approach of taking top performers, putting them into people-leader roles, and expecting their position skills to magically transform into leadership skills. By taking a people-centric
approach to developing new leaders, you can increase engagement, reduce turnover, and improve performance. Free on Kindle.

Free: Core-4 Leadership: The Master Formula for Sales Managers and Potential Leaders

June 18, 2024 By

Have you ever felt stuck as a leader? What if the one thing holding you back was the very thing holding your team back? Have you ever been overwhelmed by the many philosophies of great leadership?

Many strive for a management role, but very few actually get good at it once they’re in the position. Most tend to over invest in sales and recruiting while underinvesting in developing quality leaders. They fail to understand that the deficiencies of the leader are acting as a kink in the hose on the results of the team. You don’t have a sales problem; you have a leadership problem! The tools in this book help readers identify their deficiencies in a positive, constructive way so they can overcome them to unlock their full leadership potential.

Alec Nethercott has been a student and practitioner of leadership for two decades. Over the course of building a company with 400+ employees, he learned valuable (albeit painful) lessons along the way. Written from his experiences and research, Core-4 Leadership: The Master Formula for Sales Managers and Potential Leaders contains a proven methodology for developing the best leadership possible for maximum results. Some of the principles recounted came as breakthroughs at a time Nethercott needed them most.

He is passionate about the lessons in his book, and he is beyond excited to share them with others. Readers, you are in for inspiring stories, aha moments and relevant content that will help get you unstuck and feeling confident in your career.

Free: Customer Success Manifesto: How to Get Clients to Stay Longer, Feel Happy and Achieve Better Results

February 6, 2024 By

What are companies like Uber, IKEA, Belgo, and Eurostar doing that makes them so profitable? They know how to scale relationships.

But Online Gurus are lying to you about Scaling to hundreds of clients without creating an exceptional customer experience. Ben and I created this book with that in mind. When you feel like there is much more to be done in how you serve your clients, weve got you.

For a long time, marketers, specifically in the online space, have been making bolder and bolder promises. We started with promises of being capable of running a six-figure business (expert or agency), then everyone was promising a seven-figure business, and nowadays they promise you multiple seven figures without even working.

You might have fallen prey to that, pumping money into ads, hiring appointment setters, and having a massive sales team. Still, you face the same challenges as before, but with more chaos.

We’ve been there, and we found a different path to success and having a business we love. Since 2020 we have consulted with more than 100 7 and 8-figure businesses on how to scale their online services and have helped our clients generate 100m dollars in backend sales across these industries: Coaches & Consultants, Digital Agencies, Saas products, Ecommerce, Brick and mortar, and Startup Incubators.

We didn’t accomplish this using fancy Marketing tactics and Sales gimmicks. In fact, we’re not the greatest marketers on earth and have still helped our clients generate more than 9 figures in revenue.

What we did was create a Fulfillment Funnel for our clients so that their clients stayed 4x longer, allowing our clients to 3-4x their lifetime client value.

Free: Ethical Scaling: Scale Your Online Business In Alignment With Your True Self

January 16, 2024 By

To be fulfilled and effective in what you do, you must grow as your business grows. It’s not enough to just run a business where you don’t take advantage of people or even harm them. Ethical Scaling is the process by which you grow your business in alignment with who you are and what your values are all while supporting the life you want.

When I found the practices of yoga, meditation, Qigong, and Tai Chi, I was in a time of self-discovery. I feel fortunate to have had teachers who were grounded in reality with an added depth of experience and knowledge in the ancient healing arts. Being able to learn from them and download some of their experience has allowed me to move into a place of freedom and fulfillment, both in my personal life and my business.

Now, it’s not to say I don’t have ups and downs. Im human, just like you. (Unless you’re a bot. Thats cool too.) But what I find is that the practices I have kept for years are the constant that allow me to stay grounded no matter what my life or business throw at me.

Free: The Golden Paradigm: How Startups and Creators Cultivate the Sweet Spot Between Product and Brand to Grow Their Network Effects

May 16, 2023 By

A world trending in excess of polar extremes led by algorithmic “profiteering” calls for a new mindset, as the pendulum is now frozen at both ends. This new mindset cultivates a golden mean balance (or Golden Paradigm), where brand keeps humanity in focus and ensures technologies wield influence in people’s lives responsibly.

The Golden Paradigm helps readers revisit “forgotten” human ingenuities: storytelling and storymaking creativities. These harness the relationship between brand, audience, and “kaleidoscoping” business models that fuse sustainment and disruption in a golden mean balance—paradoxically generating transformative growth. It starts with a “truth-telling” Golden Compass that brings awareness of the market context. This provides power player awareness and also empowers the reader to map a transformative growth journey line in market quadrants from Avalanche or Potential Rocket to Bright Light and Marvelous Marquee.

Along the journey line, readers are equipped with toolkits, methods, and resources that unfreeze their creativity. The Golden Paradigm is a “kaleidoscoping” process, where the reader looks at a set of elements such as price, quality, business models, service experience—the same ones everyone else sees—but then reassembles those elements into an
enticing new possibility!

The Golden Paradigm offers a community that fuses creators, tech founders, and leaders together, imbues humanity in a tech-tattered world, and moves us toward a more positive age. Free on Kindle.
