I’m an avid reader, at several books a month. Seldom do I buy a book from an author and then rush out and buy another one from the same author.
On this author, I bought 7 or 8 at one fell swoop. So of the best ideas in business and it comes from Australia of all places!
Instant Cashflow
By Bradley J. Sugars
Raise the value of your average sale
Boost your margins
Turn your business into a money machine.
Bradley’s books are so easy to read and if you’ve ever read “The E-Myth” by Michael Gerber (another excellent book for your library) he uses the same story line. Him giving his story as he talks with a client. Bradley’s client is his car mechanic and how he helped him go from poor to good fortune, working 80 hour weeks, to working a normal life and even opening additional stores.
Car mechanic? Jeweler? Jewelry store owner with employees? Hmm, sort of the same theme, don’t you think?
For the most part he shows how to
-
Get more business by becoming a marketing genius.
- Once they come in the door to sell them more things, higher priced things and to get them to come back.
On becoming a marketing genius Bradley shows us the difference between trying to lower costs versus increasing income. You show focus on increasing cashflow, a constant cashflow. Many store owners think of marketing as an expense rather than an investment. Most stores I’ve seen who have a harder year cut advertising first. That’s like a framer eating their seed. Nothing new will come in next year!...
