Parables of BusinessYou know that mixture of excitement and nervousness all rolled into one?

That’s the current feeling as I release my first premium ebook, The Parables of Business.

A business ebook that’s not your “usual” business ebook, The Parables of Business offers my take on business tips and advice through the art of storytelling.

It also shows how old mindsets can help you forge successful paths in the new business world of today.

It brings together a collection of eleven stories that will help business owners build not only their business and brand loyalty, but also employee loyalty and a mindset to do business the right way.

There are stories about collaboration, entrepreneurship, social media Zen, overcoming adversity and much more.

Because of the storytelling approach, it offers something for everyone, from solo entrepreneurs to small-to-medium business owners, as well as human resource departments, internal teams and external contractors.

I’m obviously biased, but I think it’s a nice addition to the business ebook world, and offers something different due to its narrative approach. But, like I say, I’m biased, hehe.

Anyhoo… if you’re looking for something different, and you enjoy business tips along with stories, you might just find something you like with The Parables of Business.

It’s only $15.00 USD, with eleven stories over 36 pages (and some nice images too!). You can buy it using Paypal or credit card via the shopping cart below (powered by E-junkie on a secure server).

If you do buy it, we’d love your thoughts on it, either in the comments here, or over at my Facebook Page. And if you really enjoy it, consider buying a copy as a gift for that story-loving business person in your life!

Thanks, guys – enjoy!

I just want to congratulate you. I suppose it wasn't an easy job to write one. I hope it will have great success.

Danny

Thanks, Daca. Funnily enough, it was quite enjoyable to write, as I liked stepping away from "normal business" mode and just telling stories.

Definitely something I'll be looking into more. :)

Just read it through. Very enjoyable and, more to the point, inspirational. Appreciate having access to a positive vibe merchant such as yourself, mate.

Hey there mister,

"Positive Vibe Merchant"? Okay, I REALLY need to steal that for my bio - how much? ;-)

Thanks so much for supporting and buying, sir, sincerely appreciate it. And I like Vladimir too ;-)

I wish I could take credit for "Positive Vibe Merchant," but it's not mine. It's taken from a song called "Brodels" by 311; one of the most positive bands out there.

I just like the sound of it. As you can see, when it clicks, it clicks!

Hi Danny That is one stunning front cover. Looks as though the Photoshop boys have been working overtime. "The Parables of Business offers our take on business tips and advice through the art of storytelling." Seeing the word parable... made me think of: "The Parables of Business - your complete business bible." Be fair Danny - not bad after a long day. LOL

Hi mate, That would be our awesome designer Lisa - and agree, she outdid even her brilliant skills with that cover. :) And I won't say a thing... ;-)

Danny, my friend... Your book is a job very well done! After writing and publishing as many ebooks (and print books!) as I have, I have the experience and the right to say that! The book is crying out for an audio version...I can see business owners on treadmills all over the world with ear buds in, listening to you tell them stories...as well as a Kindle or Nook version. I'm proud to be able to say that I know you. Dennis Lively
