Sinopse

Box Office Bombs explores why big-budget films with star power sometimes fail spectacularly. It examines the confluence of Hollywood finance, creative choices, and audience expectations that lead to these costly misfires. The book argues that even groundbreaking creative vision requires sound business principles and a deep understanding of audience preferences to succeed. The analysis focuses on project management, financial risk assessment, and marketing effectiveness in the film industry.For example, the book highlights how overspending and poor script choices can doom a film, regardless of its marketing budget. Through case studies of specific failures, the book identifies common pitfalls. Organized into four parts, Box Office Bombs begins by introducing core concepts like film finance and production management. It then moves into detailed case studies of failures, synthesizes lessons learned, and concludes with practical strategies for improving project planning and aligning marketing with audience expectations, offering a unique perspective by combining financial analysis with creative assessment.

Good Company

Anônimo

Featuring an introduction by President Jimmy Carter 
The Home Depot cofounder and owner of the NFL's Atlanta Falcons and MLS's Atlanta United shares a vision and a roadmap for values-based business. 
 
Arthur M. Blank believes that for good companies, purpose and profit can-and should-go hand in hand. And he should know. Together with cofounder Bernie Marcus, Blank built The Home Depot from an idea and a dream to a $50 billion-dollar company, the leading home improvement retailer in the world. And even while opening a new store every 42 hours, they never lost sight of their commitment to care for their people and communities. In fact, in 2001, The Home Depot was voted America's most socially responsible company.  
 
Blank left The Home Depot that same year with a burning question: Could the values and culture that made that company great be replicated? Good Company takes readers inside the story of how he did just that-turning around a struggling NFL team, rebooting a near-bankrupt retail chain, building a brand-new stadium, revitalizing a blighted neighborhood, launching a startup soccer club, and more. 
 
""When good companies put the wellbeing of their customers, their associates, and their communities first, financial success will follow,"" Blank writes. ""The entrepreneurs and business leaders of today and tomorrow have an extraordinary opportunity: to prove that through upholding values we can create value-for the company, for the customer, and for the community.""

Summit Leadership - Taking Your...

Blair Singer, Robert T. Kiyosaki

Building or running a business is more than a journey. It’s an adventure. Adventure assumes there is risk in the air. For many business owners, the adventure of building a business is a long one, and there are many lessons to be learned over that extended period of time. That takes unwavering commitment, a serious dose of tenacity, and the ability to embrace adventure.   Using the experience of successfully summiting Mt. Kilimanjaro drives years of business building into a 7-day mountain leadership adventure where the pinnacle, as well as the sometimes-harsh lessons of the mountain, track exactly with the building of a business. From the moment your spirit is engaged when you commit to the climb until you return home safe and successful, Summit Leadership mirrors the same trail of mission building and ultimate business team victory that entrepreneurs strive for.   The multi-faceted challenge we faced in scaling “Kili” was a microcosm of all that owning and growing a business entails. Those who have experienced the exhilaration and challenges of it have gone on to build amazing businesses and become legendary leaders. With each ascent in altitude with the author, this guidebook explores the critical lessons to lead you and your teams to the summit and beyond.

The Shocking Truth about...

Zoey Fraisers

Personal finance is one of the most important aspects of life that often gets overlooked or misunderstood. Many people struggle with money management, whether it's budgeting, saving, investing, or preparing for retirement. The shocking truth is that a lack of financial literacy has a direct impact on people’s overall well-being, limiting their opportunities and causing unnecessary stress. The key to financial success is understanding the basics of personal finance and adopting habits that lead to long-term stability and wealth.
Understanding personal finance is essential because it allows individuals to make informed decisions about how to earn, spend, save, and invest their money. Financial literacy is no longer optional in today’s world; it is a necessity. However, it is not taught as a standard subject in schools, leaving many adults unprepared when they face real-world financial decisions. Without proper guidance, people can fall into debt, neglect their savings, and miss opportunities for building wealth.
This book aims to shine a light on the truths that many people don’t hear from financial advisors, banks, or even family members. It's about going beyond the traditional advice that’s often overly simplistic and doesn’t always apply to everyone. Whether you’re struggling to pay off credit card debt or planning for early retirement, understanding your financial situation and taking control of your money can help you unlock a better, more secure future.
