Understand What Companies do to be Successful!

(Akron, OH)- Ron Finklestein, President of AKRIS LLC, a Business & Technology Coaching and Consulting firm, has published a book through Morgan James Publishers called Celebrating Success! Fourteen Ways to a Successful Company!

This book is based on research conducted on nearly 50 small companies. These companies all exhibited the same fourteen success characteristic to grow their business and implement predictability: attitude, process improvement, company culture, sales, marketing, risk taking, training, business strategy, customer service, general advice, work life balance, discipline, information technology, and budget and finance.

“It is amazing how each company really focused on the implementation of their business strategy, the discipline they exhibited in sticking to this plan and how willing they were to walk away from business that was not part of their overall strategy,” said Finklestein.

The book is available at www.morganjamespublishing.net for a cost of $29.95 plus shipping and handling.
