Every now and then, nonprofits partner up with government agencies, foundations, and other such organizations to carry out projects with potential to change lives, improve scientific understanding, or for artistic works. For you and your nonprofit, that means drafting a grant proposal. No matter how impressive your vision looks on paper, unless your proposal aligns with the goals of the organization you seek grants from, you’re bound to get rejected. The good news is, with Winning Grants, you’re only a few steps away from the secret to writing winning grants.

While we cannot predict every question that Amazon will ask in an interview, the process is fairly structured. This makes the interview process transparent and easy to prepare for because we know many of the themes they will cover and questions they will ask. Imagine if your teacher in university told you most of the questions that were going to be on the test beforehand - all you would have to do is practice. Consider this book your study guide.

The government and all of its respective agencies are in a war to spend more and more money. With policies like “use it or lose it” and our military industrial complex, it’s no wonder why we’ve have been on a spending tear since World War II. To make matters more attractive to small businesses (as defined by Small Business Administration rules), the United States is consistently spending huge sums of money with new suppliers.

Publisher's summary
No flash, no sizzle.
Few decisions we make are more important than the ones about the direction of our career. With good reason, more and more people are questioning whether the employee model is right for them. Most have recognized that job security is based on what they are now contributing, and past contributions matter little. They look around and see others who made the leap to become an independent consultant (or freelancer), making far more money, doing more exciting work, and just having more fun.
Why can’t you do the same? The short answer is that life as an independent consultant is not for everyone.
Based on the author’s extensive experience, this book attempts to help the listener understand what life as an independent consultant is all about. In addition to drawing on the broad body of knowledge in the industry, it uses real-life examples to provides a no-nonsense perspective on many key issues.
It will help you answer questions related to:
- How life as an independent consultant will fit your personal needs and whether you should make the leap
- How you might plan and operate your business as an independent consultant
- What tools and frameworks might be helpful and how you might use them
- What you might monetize from your practice, should you decide to terminate the business
After a long career as a practitioner and business owner in the consulting industry, the author wanted to share his learnings with others. Following his retirement in May of 2018, he wrote this book as his first retirement project with the objectives of helping new entrants succeed and improving the quality of service for their clients.

Over the past decade, Inbound Marketing has changed the way companies earn buyers’ trust and build their brands - through meaningful, helpful content. But with that change comes unprecedented access to information in a few quick keystrokes. Enter the age of the empowered buyer, one who no longer has to rely on a sales rep to research their challenges or learn more about how a company’s offering might fit their needs. Now, with more than 60 percent of purchasing decisions made in the absence of a sales rep, the role of the rep itself has been called into question.

Now, with more than 60 percent of purchasing decisions made in the absence of a sales rep, the role of the rep itself has been called into question.
