Book excerpt: Why Your Business Needs a Website If you're doing business today - online OR offline - you need a website. It's that simple. Every day, Google completes more than 5 billion searches. Think some of those people, even just a tiny fraction, might be searching for what you sell? If you don't have a website, how will they ever find you? This book is about setting up your web presence the right way, or optimizing your existing website to reach more visitors. Ultimately it's about generating more traffic, more leads, and more sales and profit for your small business. Who is This Book For? This book is for small business owners who: -Have a website, but feel like it's not delivering the results it could. -Need a website, but aren't sure where to start or who to trust for advice. -Are confused and intimidated when dealing with technical problems or contracting with programmers. Have you been overpromised or oversold by web developers in the past? You're not alone. In fact, it happened to me. It seems like there's an entire industry out there trying to milk small business owners out of their hard-earned cash. But you don't need to be another victim. Armed with this checklist, you'll have a working knowledge of all the important elements of a truly awesome website; one that presents your brand to the world and helps achieve your goals online. After all, isn't that what it's all about? Why This List? There is no shortage of resources when it comes to getting started online. Some of these are genuinely helpful, and many of those will be mentioned in the pages ahead. But others just want to sell you some service you don't really need, or get you to sign up for a hosting package through their affiliate link so they can earn a commission. Do they really have your best interest in mind? Many only give you part of the story, or leave you with more questions than answers. What's missing is a comprehensive checklist for small businesses to use when evaluating their current website or when planning out their new site. That's where this book comes in. I'm a small business owner myself, and have been working online for nearly 10 years. In that time, I've come across too many amazing businesses with amazingly bad websites. Or worse, local businesses I wanted to find information on and patronize but that had no website at all. This checklist is my effort to help give small business owners the information they need to succeed online. From one entrepreneur to another, let's get started! What are you waiting for?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 25 Steps to Found and Scale a High-Growth Business The Startup Checklist is the entrepreneur's essential companion. While most entrepreneurship books focus on strategy, this invaluable guide provides the concrete steps that will get your new business off to a strong start. You'll learn the ins and outs of startup execution, management, legal issues, and practical processes throughout the launch and growth phases, and how to avoid the critical missteps that threaten the foundation of your business. Instead of simply referring you to experts, this discussion shows you exactly which experts you need, what exactly you need them to do, and which tools you will use to support them—and you'll gain enough insight to ask smart questions that help you get your money's worth. If you're ready to do big things, this book has you covered from the first business card to the eventual exit. Over two thirds of startups are built on creaky foundations, and over two thirds of startup costs go directly toward cleaning up legal and practical problems caused by an incomplete or improper start. This book helps you sidestep the messy and expensive clean up process by giving you the specific actions you need to take right from the very beginning. Understand the critical intricacies of legally incorporating and running a startup Learn which experts you need, and what exactly you need from them Make more intelligent decisions independent of your advisors Avoid the challenges that threaten to derail great young companies The typical American startup costs over $30,000 and requires working with over two dozen professionals and service providers before it even opens for business—and the process is so complex that few founders do it correctly. Their startups errors often go unnoticed until the founder tries to seek outside capital, at which point they can cost thousands of dollars to fix. . . or even completely derail an investment. The Startup Checklist helps you avoid these problems and lay a strong foundation, so you can focus on building your business.

Book excerpt: It's been known for years that usability testing can dramatically improve products. But with a typical price tag of $5,000 to $10,000 for a usability consultant to conduct each round of tests, it rarely happens. In this how-to companion to Don't Make Me Think: A Common Sense Approach to Web Usability, Steve Krug spells out a streamlined approach to usability testing that anyone can easily apply to their own Web site, application, or other product. (As he said in Don't Make Me Think, "It's not rocket surgery".) Using practical advice, plenty of illustrations, and his trademark humor, Steve explains how to: Test any design, from a sketch on a napkin to a fully-functioning Web site or application Keep your focus on finding the most important problems (because no one has the time or resources to fix them all) Fix the problems that you find, using his "The least you can do" approach By paring the process of testing and fixing products down to its essentials ("A morning a month, that's all we ask"), Rocket Surgery makes it realistic for teams to test early and often, catching problems while it's still easy to fix them. Rocket Surgery Made Easy adds demonstration videos to the proven mix of clear writing, before-and-after examples, witty illustrations, and practical advice that made Don't Make Me Think so popular.
