The 5 Catalysts of 7-Figure Growth

Propel Your Business to the Next Level
Author: Andrew Birol, 256 pages, 6 x 9, Paper

Of the more than 1,000 business owners he interviewed over the last 25
years, every one of them asked Andrew Birol the same question: “My
business is not like any of the ones you’ve worked with. How can I grow it to
the next level?” The 5 Catalysts of 7-Figure Growth provides the answers.

In this age of demanding customers, unreasonable suppliers, cutthroat
competition, and dispassionate employees, Andrew Birol cuts right to the
core of what owners need to grow their businesses—and how their vendors,
staff, and advisors can raise their own value by helping them.

Birol identifies five fundamentals—or catalysts—that drive profitable growth,
showing how they lay the foundation for daily decision making, strategizing,
and implementation throughout the life cycle of a firm. He discusses each
catalyst within the context of specific financial milestones—from starting up,
to reaching specific sales targets ($1 million, $5 million, $10 million, $25
million and $50 million), and finally to succession, transition, and handoff.

Blending canny analysis with “workbook” exercises and real-life anecdotes of
successful client and national companies, The 5 Catalysts of 7 Figure Growth
provides a roadmap for systematic growth that is anything but predictable.
Birol’s edgy enthusiasm, ironic take on pop culture, and unshakable
conviction in the strength of business owners and those who serve them will
keep you reading—and laughing.

Whether your company is brand new, established and growing, or stuck in the
status quo, The 5 Catalysts of 7 Figure Growth will help you understand where
it is, how it got there, and what you must do now to take it to the next level.
