Unleashing Their Potential
Winning Your Biggest Paycheck provides readers with clear guidance and actionable advice to advance their career and achieve financial freedom. Why was this an important book for you to write?
I have always wanted to write a book on career advancement. After my limited success in business, I wanted to give back. I think I have a gift for simplifying complex concepts and inspiring others in plain words. I have been a lecturer, coach, and mentor. Nothing gives me more satisfaction than inspiring people and unleashing their potential in life and business.
What is one piece of advice you would give to someone who’s struggling to advance their career?
I was going to say, “read my book!”
Develop and follow a career plan that includes job skill training and getting a mentor. Fear of failure and procrastination hold people back. A sense of accomplishment builds confidence. The learning routine will condition your mind to stay focused and positive.
What is a common misconception you feel people have about entrepreneurship?
People think as entrepreneurs, they will make more money than working for someone else. And the issues they faced at work previously will diminish. However, they will become the chief executive officer, chief operating officer, and most importantly, the chief revenue officer once they decide to start a business. They will face many more challenges, including making a profit and maintaining cash flow.
What do you hope is one thing readers take away from your book?
Build a strong personal brand. Your personal brand is an essential element of your career success. Your paycheck will grow as you elevate your brand!

Twelve-Minute Risk Management
In Twelve-Minute Risk Management, readers get a comprehensive guide to running and managing a business. Author Ivy Walker writes from experience touching on critical elements in the entrepreneurship industry. This book is eye-opening and illuminating for readers that are looking to start their own businesses. Walker gives factual information and shares her honest reviews on various business aspects. The entrepreneurship pointers shared by the author are invaluable to readers.
Let’s talk about the language used by Walker. Twelve-Minute Risk Management is an easy-to-read book about entrepreneurship for readers at all stages of business development. There are a few technical terms, all of which are defined to help readers understand. When introducing the reader to a new topic or business concept, the author starts by giving a short tale that will help the reader see the practical applications of the concept.
The author is insightful and objective working to connect with her readers. The real-life stories she shares are especially great as they contain life lessons. I like that the author focused on small businesses and gave a practical guide to those running small and medium enterprises. I enjoyed her analogies and the pointers she gave to small businesses.
Other topics that I found to be enlightening evolved around risk management, expanding businesses, making profits, operating a workplace, and my favorite; cyber-attacks. The information Walker has on cyber-attacks should not be overlooked. This topic is crucial, especially since everything revolves around technology today.
Walker uses a friendly tone and writes about the good, bad, easy, and challenging parts of entrepreneurship without sugar-coating matters. Everything from the font, arrangement of paragraphs, and choice of topics is stimulating and appealing for any reader.
With Twelve-Minute Risk Management, readers can feel safe starting a business and confident that whatever enterprise they set up will bring in profits. Ivy Walker checks every box for an all-around entrepreneur. I recommend this book to readers that want to learn how to be self-employed, run a business and create business opportunities.

The topics in the book are significant in today’s world. The chapters are distinctly titled, and the author makes it easy for the reader to follow his work.

The author will give you a clear sight of just how things are and what needs to be done to benefit both clients and realtors.

The last chapter has everything you need to know about changes in cap rates, issues that lead to a low cap rate environment, cap rates in the 90s vs. 2000s, and much more. Readers will feel enlightened by the end of this educational book and will be able to make an impartial decision about properties.

By following the simple guide shared by the author, readers stand to benefit, not just as an entrepreneur, but also as an average citizen, as the wealth readers gain will help in the community.
I loved reading this book because the author separates reality from fantasy. Terry Grennon is genuine and sober with his thoughts. Terry Grennon uses facts, data and statistics to expound on his discussions. His theories are objective and the advice given is relevant to the economic times we are in
One of the major lessons in the books was about markets. Getting to understand how markets work, your target market and how fluctuations occur is as critical as any other element in the industry.
The author also inspires readers to embrace change, and be open to new trends. You have to put in all your effort and be willing to accept new ideas every day. Having been present when there were economic crises through different years, Terry Grennon has the best tips for investors that need to survive future economic turmoil.
The research alone done by the author is enough for one to buy this book. The author has analyzed different markets and gives a breakdown of the past 50 years. The language in the book is relatively easy to understand and exposes the average reader to new marketing and economic terms. I also got to understand inflation and the role governments play in raising prices of products.
Asset Allocation For All Markets is a compendium on markets, wealth distribution and simple economics. I left this book with a new confidence, and a pragmatic and actionable strategy, to invest my assets.
