Nothing Ventured, Everything Gained by Dileep Rao Pdf

Is it possible for entrepreneurs to succeed at growing ventures without early-stage venture capital? Based on the fact that more than 9 out of 10 of America’s billion-dollar entrepreneurs did take off without early-stage VC, Dileep Rao says YES! In Nothing Ventured, Everything Gained, Dileep Rao shatters the dominant myth that entrepreneurs need early-stage venture capital to build a giant business. In fact, says Rao, by avoiding or even delaying VC, billion-dollar entrepreneurs can control their companies and the wealth created by them—and retain more of that wealth. The book is based on 30 of Rao’s interviews with billion-dollar entrepreneurs (BDEs) and hundred-million-dollar entrepreneurs (HMDEs) and the analysis of the strategies of 85 BDEs. The author introduces the finance-smart skills, opportunity secrets, and strategy secrets of BDEs who took off without VC, and proves his points via stories of successful giants like Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg, and Steve Jobs. Every entrepreneur will do well to read and benefit from Rao’s invaluable insights and expertise. ​Dileep Rao, PhD, financed the growth of hundreds of businesses and real estate projects over the twenty-three years he was VP of financing and business development at a venture development and finance institution. He advises entrepreneurs, governments, Fortune 1000 corporations, and financial institutions on building big businesses with finance-smart strategies. Dr. Rao is a clinical professor of entrepreneurship at Florida International University and has taught at Stanford University, the University of Minnesota, and in executive MBA programs in Europe, Latin America, and Asia.

Super Founders by Ali Tamaseb Pdf

Super Founders uses a data-driven approach to understand what really differentiates billion-dollar startups from the rest—revealing that nearly everything we thought was true about them is false! Ali Tamaseb has spent thousands of hours manually amassing what may be the largest dataset ever collected on startups, comparing billion-dollar startups with those that failed to become one—30,000 data points on nearly every factor: number of competitors, market size, the founder’s age, his or her university’s ranking, quality of investors, fundraising time, and many, many more. And what he found looked far different than expected. Just to mention a few: Most unicorn founders had no industry experience; There's no disadvantage to being a solo founder or to being a non-technical CEO; Less than 15% went through any kind of accelerator program; Over half had strong competitors when starting--being first to market with an idea does not actually matter. You will also hear the stories of the early days of billion-dollar startups first-hand. The book includes exclusive interviews with the founders/investors of Zoom, Instacart, PayPal, Nest, Github, Flatiron Health, Kite Pharma, Facebook, Stripe, Airbnb, YouTube, LinkedIn, Lyft, DoorDash, Coinbase, and Square, venture capital investors like Elad Gil, Peter Thiel, Alfred Lin from Sequoia Capital and Keith Rabois of Founders Fund, as well as previously untold stories about the early days of ByteDance (TikTok), WhatsApp, Dropbox, Discord, DiDi, Flipkart, Instagram, Careem, Peloton, and SpaceX. Packed with counterintuitive insights and inside stories from people who have built massively successful companies, Super Founders is a paradigm-shifting and actionable guide for entrepreneurs, investors, and anyone interested in what makes a startup successful.

Secrets Sources of Money and Entrepreneurship by MR M Aa Abou El Fish,M. Abouelfish Pdf

Many of whom read this book wished they read it long time ago It's advised to read this book before taking the course of life Don't choose your specialty in life without looking to our advices This is not a magical book it's also not only to raise the morale by giving you good energy, without real solutions. This book is made on a scientific basis and a lot of experiences. Due to that, this book comes to deal directly with the source of money, we won't tell you stories, and you will find my book direct to the point with exact numbers and advices. The goal of any career is to make money, but I found nobody talk about that, companies try to promote their product service or study. So instead of talking about management, leadership, business, self-employed, be your own boss... etc., which never show us how to be financially secured, we will talk in the beginning of the book about a clear image of the sources of money, and how money works. In the last three parties of the book we will discuss how to position you there using different techniques. We will give examples of the best companies around the world their vision and how they work. In life, there are lots of real problems, but many people discover them after a couple of years, some of them don't want to discuss it because they believe it represents their failure in life. We will talk about those problems and try to avoid them, especially for the coming generation. There are many people who became wealthy by accident they don't know how it happened. Furthermore, there are many people in financial difficulty or a medium budgetary situation, the destiny took them there, and there are few who know what they are doing based on exact knowledge, which we will focus on them in the book to help you to be one of them. Someone told me I was good in my business because I'm smart, which is not always true I believe it's more about management and how we position ourselves and our businesses in the right market place. Many people discover the reason of their failure at a later age, for example; they found that they didn't do much in their financial life, comparing themselves with the people around them whom have succeeded without a clue on how he/ she didn't do as much as the others. In life, you find that many people who didn't go to school or university succeed more than others who spent all their lives in school or university- many people wonder how that happens? By the end of this book you will know the answer. Also please note we are not telling you don't study, but we want you to study with plans. Some people who have seen others who have succeeded in life will tell you that they have succeeded illegally, or it's a legacy from their parents. They say that because they are unable to succeed. I know a lot of people who started their business from scratch and lot of people who wasted their parent's wealth in record time. This book is the answer to those questions and is also a guide for you to start or modify your life in the right direction; you don't need to live arbitrarily anymore; you should have specific targets that will lead you to happiness and success. This book is an excellent way for anyone who wants to review or modify his or her life to be better, same for high school graduates before they begin university. This book does not guarantee anything, but we believe it's very important guide for your financial life success. This book won't give general advises it gives an accurate and professional way to do things using plans and numbers. Unlike other people who say if you write, "I am wealthy" 100 times it will become truth. This book will reveal hidden information from business owners.

The Entrepreneur's Secret to Creating Wealth by Chris Hurn Pdf

An often overlooked secret to creating wealth as a business owner has little to do with actually running the business. Marketing, customer service, quality products, and more are required to make a business successful...but when it comes to creating real and lasting wealth, decisions regarding this key "secret" will have the greatest impact. As both a small business lender and a small business owner himself, Chris Hurn has a bird's eye view of how businesses create wealth, as well as an in-the-trenches perspective on the tough decisions that must be made if a business is to go from good to great. In The Entrepreneur's Secret to Creating Wealth, Chris explains the myriad of factors and variables involved in this significant wealth-creation strategy. Plenty of books describe how entrepreneurs can create more ideas or have happier employees. But no other business book outlines in such detail -- or with such authority -- how to actually develop the wealth behind the business. SPECIAL OFFER When you buy two or more copies of this book (say, one for you and one you give to a friend), we'll donate the net proceeds of the sale to the National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB) Young Entrepreneur Foundation.
