Summary

If you have a business that sells physical goods and that business does not yet have an active internet presence, consider this. In 2008, online retail trade turnover in the US measured somewhere around $230 billion, which represented some 10% of total US retail sales!Even with the recent economic downturn, the percentage of retail trade that is transacted online is set to keep growing throughout the commercialized world as the internet becomes more sophisticated and efficient, while ‘high street’ businesses are constantly on the lookout to expand their customer base still further.In fact, if you have a real world, ‘bricks and mortar’ business that is not represented online, there has never been a better time to get your business online. Even if you already have a web site, unless you keep abreast of the latest online business trends and thinking – and you are probably too busy running a business for that – the chances are that your site is not doing what it should do.What if you are thinking about starting a business that supplies physical goods, but you have not yet done so?Once again, there could be no better time to think about doing so (and therefore no better time to be reading this book) because despite the phenomenal growth of online business over the past few years, we are only scratching the e-commerce surface at the moment.There seems little doubt that in the next few years, there is likely to be a global explosion in e-commerce as potential consumers become more accustomed and comfortable transacting business online.There is an awful lot to think about when you are considering taking your business online, an array of questions and alternatives that you need to address before diving in. This is a given, but it is not something that you need be too concerned about, as I am going to analyze and discuss these aspects of e-commerce as we move through this book.Let’s start by considering why taking your business online is such a good idea, and why there has never been a better time to do so than now.

    Customized marketing became more realistic after big data analytics and targeted marketing tools were implemented online, but those still offered the framework of a buying profile, not necessarily that sweet spot of temporal, geographical, and behavioral marketing that is not only designed for your tastes, but also for your immediate location in the world. This sort of micro marketing was impossible for earlier generations, and is still only in its early stages across most parts of the world. As can be said of most major advancements in communication and human interaction, the rise of this targeted, highly successful marketing style was preceded by another innovation and cultural trend that enabled it to exist – mobile technology.

In other words, management can be defined as the means and resources necessary in order to achieve our objectives. You can find the basic principles of management in all sorts of organizations, no matter how small or large they are, if they charge for their activities or if they are non-profit.

    Extreme Ownership by Jocko Willink and Leif Babin - Book Summary 
    About | Extreme Ownership: How U.S. Navy SEALS Lead And Win by Jocko Willink, Leif Babin 
     
    Extreme Ownership is a book on leadership written by two former U.S. Navy SEALS, Jocko Willink and Leif Babin. They have translated their experiences on the battlefield into actionable steps towards leadership success in the business world. In the book, the authors tell us that leaders are responsible for everything under their care. This means if there is faulty production in the warehouse, dissenting employees, a culture of distrust, or any breakdown along the supply chain it is ultimately the leader’s fault. The title gives away the overarching message of the book – Extreme Ownership. Using anecdotes from their time leading the SEAL Team Three Task Force Bruiser, Jocko and Leif highlight the responsibility of leadership and the character development necessary to lead a well-equipped team. Each chapter begins with a personal military example from their time in Iraq. From these personal stories a leadership principle and application to business is laid out. Time and time again success and failure is placed on the shoulders of the leader, not on those under them. There is no room or space for scapegoating. A leader is called to own up to the responsibility of his or her position.
