It is not a question whether the world is in transition, rather it is quite clear to see that the world is transitioning into new uncharted territories. Digital transformation has taken over the many facets of management and will create advantages for the organizations that are innovative with these competitive core capabilities. From manufacturing to education, every business sector is shifting their traditional ways of doing business to reach organizational goals and survive. Innovation takes the lead here. In this digitalized era, it is obvious that firms and organizations will not survive if they do not adapt to the changing demands and business strategies of the new era. New developments in information technologies provides an essential base for digital transformation leading to many artificial intelligence implications. This can lead to time-effectiveness, lowered costs, better timing, and improved efficiency in personalized products and services. New forms of work, new performance criteria, new training and new development programs for employees and new recruitment and selection procedures will be among the most important issues of new human resource management systems. This stems from the urgency of digital transformation in the new World order. All organizations need to establish new management strategies, policies, and practices to govern vital transformations in the new age. This will be achieved by formulating and implementing a digital transformation strategy which fits to all levels of management in today's organizations. From supply chain management systems to human resource management within organizations need to be transformed accordingly with the digital transformation strategy. For all these reasons, the latest research on the selected subjects of leadership, innovation and entrepreneurship will fill a critical gap in the related literature.

I took home more in a year than the CEOs of McDonalds, IKEA, Ford, Motorola, and Yahoo….combined….as a kid in my twenties….using the $100M Offer method. It works. And it will work for you.

Not that long ago though, my business had gotten so bad that I literally couldn’t even give my services away for free. At the end of each month, I would look at my bank account hoping to see progress (but there wasn’t). I knew something had to change...but what?

Over the next 48 months, I went from losing money to making $36 for every $1 spent. In that time period, we generated over $120,000,000 across four different industries: service, e-commerce, software, and brick & mortar.

But, unlike everyone else, we didn’t have great funnels, great ads, or a wealthy niche. In fact, we didn’t even send emails until we had crossed $50M in sales(!). Instead, we were able to do this one thing really well….we created offers so good, people felt stupid saying no.

Here’s exactly what this book will show you how to do:

How To Charge a Lot More Than You Currently Are…
a- The Tiny Market Big Money Process we use to laser focus on niche markets overflowing with cash
b- The “Unfair” Pricing formula….how we 100x’d our pricing (and got more people to say yes….for real)
c- The Value Flip...so you never get price compared again (that’s a promise)
d- The Virtuous Cycle of Price...use it to outspend your competition (for good) while using your product to attract the best talent.

How To Make Your Product So Good, Prospects Find A Way To Pay For It
a- The Unbeatable Value Equation….to make what you sell worth more than your prospects have ever received
b- The Delivery Cube….to make delivering your products and services cost less but provide more
c- The Trim & Stack Hack….to maximize profit using the absolute best delivery methods. (This has never been shared publicly and was how we made $17M in profit on $28M in revenue in a year when I was 28 years old).

How To Enhance Your Offer So Much, Prospects Buy Without Hesitating
a- The Scarcity Stack….how to use the three different types of scarcity in every offer you make (without lying) to get people to buy the moment you ask
b- The “Everyday” Urgency Blueprint... to get prospects to buy RIGHT NOW, using everyday life to create real, ethical time pressure
c- Unbeatable Bonuses...and watch your prospects' hesitations melt away as they begin reading their credit cards to you before you even finish!
d- God-mode Guarantees...so good they make anyone say yes (even people who would never normally consider buying). I’ll show you how to stack and layer all 4 types of guarantees together. I even give you my 13 favorite guarantees word-for-word to swipe for yourself.
e- Magic Naming Formula to get the absolute highest response rates and conversion rates from everything you do to get new clients and so much more…

The methods contained within this book are so simple, so instantaneous, and so effective, it’s as if they work by magic. If you implement even one tactic in this book, you’ll see the change in your prospects' demeanor. And you’ll know the $100M Offer method worked when you start hearing “What do I need to do to move forward?” ...before you even ask for the sale. If you want to get more prospects to reply to your ads for less advertising dollars and get them to say YES to breathtaking prices...then ADD TO CART, use its contents, and see for yourself.

Ecosystems have been present in the fields of economics and management for decades, and in recent years they have experienced rapid development. However, there is still no consensus on the definition of an innovation ecosystem.Using concrete examples, The Innovation Ecosystem as a Source of Value Creation proposes a unique model in order to refine the understanding, functions, advantages and disadvantages of innovation ecosystems. This model is based on both the iterative network and integrated value chain. The network supports the collaboration between actors and favors asset transfers articulated around the innovation process.This book highlights the transfer processes at work in the innovation ecosystem, as well as the roles of the actors in this integrated value chain. It presents how value creation is articulated around knowledge to generate value shared by all of the actors in the innovation ecosystem.

To strategically plan the future of a business, it is necessary to thoroughly understand the business and its position in the marketplace. This knowledge must be gathered through a comprehensive analysis of the organization, its suppliers, and customers.

Critical Analysis and Architecture for Strategic Business Planning seeks to fill current gaps in business and operations research by highlighting the need for greater focus on the research and analysis required to obtain the right kind of information pertaining to the effective business development of an organization. This publication examines the literature for best practices for business research and analysis, which would lead to obtaining the most advantageous information for guiding business and organizations. Covering topics such as business planning, information systems, and competitive advantage, it is an essential resource for managers, business leaders, business strategists, consultants, students and educators of higher education, researchers, and academicians.

COVID-19 is profoundly affecting the ways in which we live, learn, plan, and develop. What does COVID-19 mean for the future of digital information use and delivery, and for more traditional forms of library provision? Libraries, Digital Information, and COVID gives immediate and long-term solutions for librarians responding to the challenge of COVID-19. The book helps library leaders prepare for a post-COVID-19 world, giving guidance on developing sustainable solutions. The need for sustainable digital access has now become acute, and while offering a physical space will remain important, current events are likely to trigger a shift toward off-site working and study, making online access to information more crucial. Libraries have already been providing access to digital information as a premium service. New forms and use of materials all serve to eliminate the need for direct contact in a physical space. Such spaces will come to be predicated on evolving systems of digital information, as critical needs are met by remote delivery of goods and services. Intensified financial pressure will also shape the future, with a reassessment of information and its commercial value. In response, there will be a massification of provision through increased cooperation and collaboration. These significant transitions are driving professionals to rethink and question their identities, values, and purpose. This book responds to these issues by examining the practicalities of running a library during and after the pandemic, answering questions such as: What do we know so far? How are institutions coping? Where are providers placing themselves on the digital/print and the remote/face-to-face continuums? This edited volume gives analysis and examples from around the globe on how libraries are managing to deliver access and services during COVID-19. This practical and thoughtful book provides a framework within which library directors and their staff can plan sustainable services and collections for an uncertain future.

The international financial crisis of 2007 and 2008 and the situation caused by the COVID-19 pandemic have had a great impact on many firms' financial needs. Simultaneously, several emerging countries have bet on boosting private initiatives as a way to diversify their economies and create jobs and wealth for their populations. New forms of financing have appeared that have impacted the firm's capital structure, cost of capital, and access to finance by underprivileged communities that are normally outside the formal economy. The Handbook of Research on Acceleration Programs for SMEs provides and shares knowledge on the financial mix, alternative forms of finance, capital structure, and more. It calls attention to relevant challenges, financial institutions, and governments to guarantee funds and economic and social development with new competencies, innovations, new ways of investing, entrepreneurship, and business models with new public policies. Covering topics such as earnings management, capital structure, and foreign exchange, this major reference work is an essential resource for government officials, business leaders and executives, economists, sociologists, students and faculty of higher education, librarians, researchers, and academicians.

WHAT VALUABLE COMPANY IS NOBODY BUILDING?

The next Bill Gates will not build an operating system. The next Larry Page or Sergey Brin won’t make a search engine. If you are copying these guys, you aren’t learning from them. It’s easier to copy a model than to make something new: doing what we already know how to do takes the world from 1 to n, adding more of something familiar. Every new creation goes from 0 to 1. This book is about how to get there.
