A strategy and marketing guide for growth companies Growth at any price can be exhausting for B-2-B companies and professional service providers who want to win more clients. Many entrepreneurs watch their bank accounts grow, but sacrifice too much in the process. Since 2001, wealth has taken on a whole new meaning. In this tell-all marketing guidebook, Lisa Nirell reveals a contemporary, contrarian, and field-tested view of marketing and planning. Successful growth and exit planning aren't about maximizing revenues or launching Internet marketing campaigns. Instead, they're about creating a compelling vision of the future, winning clients' hearts and minds, and defining the "wealth quotient" in a holistic way. This practical, real-world guide shows readers how to develop a strategic marketing plan that really works-and avoid the attitudes that sabotage great ideas.

Foreword by Guy Kawasaki xiii Plug In xvii Accolades and Gratitude xxvii 1 Running on Empty 1 Ever wonder why you're feeling drained-even though your company appears successful on the outside? Hear a story that may just sound similar to your own. 2 Brains, Beliefs, and Growth Blunders 9 There are two main reasons why businesses fail-lack of a written plan and our limiting beliefs. What are the most common limiting beliefs?

Here is a guide to prioritize your activities and focus on what you do best. 4 Increase Your Wealth Quotient 47 The definition of wealth has changed dramatically. What does it mean now? How can you prepare your company for ultimate sale or exit? Here is a contrarian view on value drivers and seven principles to position your company for higher valuation. Interview excerpts from "triple bottom line" companies such as Seventh Generation and Hollyhock Institute. 5 The Path to Planning 69 The path to wisdom begins with a common set of definitions. We define the first five steps of planning for growth companies, with real examples of each.

Hear how Zipcar and Eversheds are leading the way. 11 Future Energy Sources: How to Grow Your Wealth Quotient with Social Media 173 Will social media increase your company's Wealth Quotient-or destroy it?
