“We’re very pleased to be chosen as Best Business Book of the Week,” said Jeffrey S. Davis, author, adding, “We believe we tell a series of stories that are of value to every entrepreneur and are grateful to Mr. Brock for his support.”
“The 24-Hour Turnaround” is available on Amazon.com, HappyAbout.com, through the Mage website, and in select bookstores throughout the region. The first and second editions of the book were published in 2011 and 2017. “The 24-Hour Turnaround” is a detailed collection of stories and case studies chronicling the path to success during turbulent times. Readers will learn of the entrepreneurial experiences of seven different businesses, pinpointing the most common situations encountered with entrepreneurs and owners of private and family companies. Through detailed interviews and observations, Davis provides readers with an inside look into the strategies and thinking of these leaders, with takeaways that benefit all entrepreneurs in challenging times.
“The 24-Hour Turnaround” enables entrepreneurs to turn a keen analytical eye on their business trajectories and their personal leadership styles. It demonstrates the benefits of change, and teaches entrepreneurs how to implement real change creating a more consistent environment for success, business stability, and growth. Its unique value has already received broad recognition.
“One of the most important aspects of these different businesses is that all of them navigated their organizations to experience great success during this economic chaos without any outside financial help whatsoever,” said Davis. “They found their way to success unknowingly using the same values-based principles. This book highlights those easy to learn principles for other businesses to apply.”
“We live in a world filled with chaos and have experienced two years unlike any other in our history,” said Davis, adding, “Keeping our entrepreneurs thriving in this atmosphere is critical. The book does a deep dive into the businesses of seven entrepreneurs in different industries, and how they navigated a similar formula to deal with adversity and reach success by having a smart plan, strong values and hard work.”
Davis, a Montreal-born author, speaker and Chairman/Chief Executive Officer of Mage, and who maintains homes in Boston, MA and Montreal says that he is similar to the people he writes about. “I have owned nine businesses; I have experience across many industries which gives me insight into the people I write about and their strategies.”
Since 1985, he, and his company Mage have guided over 700 entrepreneurial businesses and organizational leaders on issues ranging from strategy, marketing and sales, to organizational transition, culture and family transitional issues. The case studies, based on the authors’ extensive experience with individual entrepreneurs and their organizations, highlight means and methods by which business leaders can achieve their visions and goals regardless of the nature of the market or the economy.
Davis’s strong resume of business experience includes Chairman of the Board for MTP Software, the largest CRM for the sports and entertainment industry.
