The authors of this book operate the charity Grassroots.org, an organization that provides free technologies to other nonprofits and promotes social action through our network of web sites. We also operate the charitable fund Make Change! Trust.
We are able to rigorously pursue this nonprofit work because of our successful business practices that we apply to many of our modern corporations, including WashingtonVC, Phone.com, BrowserMedia, SEO.com, and DomainMarket.com, to name a few.
We have documented most of our strategies so you too can make millions in your business of choice. Then, given your newfound success, our hope is that you will benefit society by contributing extra time and money to the causes that you favor, as we have with Grassroots.org and Make Change! Trust.
While the title of this book may make it sound like a get-rich-quick scheme, these methods get real people rich in the real world—and can for you as well.
Throughout this guide, we will take well-established and proprietary business concepts and explain them in clear language. No single idea can offer you a quick path to wealth, but considered in whole, these methods will truly empower you to go out into your chosen marketplace and “make millions.” The more good ideas that you employ simultaneously, the more overall efficiency and financial benefit will result.
This book focuses on a high-growth, small business theory with a particular emphasis on modern technologies and marketing. We feel these areas are often shortchanged in business academia but still offer the most opportunity for small businesses.
Make Millions and Make Change! is a living document that can serve as your raw code to “get rich and serve the world.” It will be most effective if you are adding to it constantly, fine-tuning the elements that work best for you and eliminating those that don’t.
Whether you want to take on global industries or just improve your corner store, this book provides many profitable strategies for any business. The majority of this information also applies to nonprofits.
There is no reason to accept our ideas as gospel. Simply use the ones that you favor along with the other Best Practices that you adopt in your business life. In this way, you and your team will have instant access to the optimal methods of conducting your business.
Good business methodology does not need to be reinvented every day, just improved upon.
