Primary: Our target market is owners of small businesses who are interested in personal and business development. We have run many seminars on growth, and we know that they respond to business concepts when they are explained simply, with real life examples, and a challenge to get on and do it. They are typically time poor, and will read business books in chunks. Most business owners do buy business books but they don t get to the end of business books because the material gets stretched too thin. As noted above, this book is a lively look at the key concepts, and offers a different way of thinking about what they already know.Secondary: It will also appeal to leaders of medium–sized businesses as a book for their managers. They typically send their managers to functional courses run by the Institute of Management or the local university, but there are few courses pitched at the key problem of how to get their managers to think more strategically.
Some (not many) attend webinars and online education. Most business owners find books to be a better medium than audio visual media.
Tertiary: This includes accountants, directors, consultants, business coaches and advisers, and anyone else involved in helping small business owners grow their business.
