Billionaire Strategies: How Billionaires Become Billionaires
This course is designed for the serious entrepreneur who wants to have an advanced palette of strategies and tactics to employ. Let's be honest, it's getting tougher and tougher to survive let alone prosper out there in the global 24/7 marketplace. Indeed most won't make it this economy. Moreover, when they eventually fail they won't even understand why it happened.
My area of specialty is entrepreneurial finance. It's the fun practical type of finance that allows you to do things most people would think impossible. What I have learned about startup finance over the past 25 years is now all in the Smart Startup Guide. Sadly most people's knowledge of finance is limited to "I'll write a business plan and hopefully someone will give me money." If you try to explain to them that there is always something that they can do right now to move their project forward, they don't want to hear about it. They only want some kind stranger to drop $500k or $5 million into their laps so that all their financial problems are instantly and permanently solved.
It doesn't work that way.
To survive and thrive in today's ever-increasing competitiveness, you need to learn advanced business strategies from the best of the best. Yes, they do know more than you do. Don't make the fatal and unnecessary mistake of thinking that you know all that there is to know.
