"You’re An Entrepreneur. You’ve either started or are thinking of starting your own business. Or you’re all in and need to take a chance. Then this book is for you.
Starting a business is brutal. 70% of businesses fail after five years and only 25% of businesses make it to 15 years or more. What if you had a crystal ball to guide you through your business cycle so you didn’t make the same mistakes as everyone else?
Larry Gaynor is a serial beauty entrepreneur still running TNG Worldwide since 1985. He has dealt with the biggest companies including L’Oréal, Unilever, Amazon and Walmart. As a retailer, he had to take a chance and decide to shut down his $5 million store and become a wholesale distributor. As a distributor, he was cut-off more than ten times and threatened to sell his company or else. As a manufacturer, he had to take a chance and risk everything during the pandemic.
Take A Chance! is Gaynor’s fascinating journey as an entrepreneur spanning more than 50 years. Key take-aways include Gallup-training that changed TNG’s culture; the pivot to manufacturing from being a lowly distributor; the importance of being an Amazon Top 200 Reseller; and the rise and fall of the pro beauty business. Along the way, Gaynor shares his top 101 entrepreneurial lessons for making it big."
"Empowered Employees Are the Key to Business Growth
Many business leaders focus only on satisfying their customers as the best way to grow their business. Makes sense, right? Chad Peterman, President and CEO of Peterman Brothers, sees it differently. In his engaging new book, The Empowerment Project, Peterman delves into the concept of empowering employees by creating a supportive corporate culture, giving employees the authority to make decisions, providing training and career path planning, and showing employees that mistakes are opportunities for learning and growth.
In Peterman’s view, an outgrowth of employees feeling empowered and trusted is that they will provide excellent customer service, and through satisfied customers, the business will experience nonstop growth. His results speak for themselves. In 1986, Chad’s father started Peterman Heating, Cooling & Plumbing, a one-man operation in Beech Grove, IN. Chad and his brother Tyler joined his father in 2011 and took the company to the next level, with 600 employees across 11 locations and revenues of $110 million."
