by Brad Taylor

Overview

Intentional Success is written for the aspiring entrepreneur, the business professional, the dreamer and the doer. Taken from actual life lessons, the book provides a real-world viewpoint on what it takes to succeed as an entrepreneur.

The book addresses the typical struggles aspiring business owners encounter when starting, managing, growing, and maintaining a successful venture. It features a formula for success that embraces the key tenants of Persistence, Sales, Time Management, Goal Setting and Leadership while offering instruction on how to build an extraordinary small business.

Brad and Cathy Taylor provide a clear guide through the perilous journey that destroys over 65% of all new businesses. The Taylor's share tools, practical applications, potent anecdotes and real-life examples of intentional success, when there is no "Plan B."

Brad and Cathy join the approximately 1.4 million businesses in the US that are run by married couples. Their experience has empowered them to share practical advice on how to achieve a work-life balance while realizing the benefits of being in a business partnership with your partner in life.

The Taylor's have found success by adopting twelve intangibles presented throughout the book.

The twelve intangibles will help you become a better leader and in turn, lead you to your professional and personal purpose.

You have stayed on the sidelines and watched other business owners skyrocket.

You're already running a business but want to ensure you're a success, and not a statistic.

About the Author

Empowering through purpose, significance, clarity, motivation, enthusiasm & leadership.

Brad Taylor was an entrepreneur before he truly knew what the word meant. He started his career in the retail drug store industry in the mid 70's working alongside some of the most respected individuals within the industry. Over the last 25 years, Brad and his wife Cathy have worked together in the publishing, marketing and media industry.

Today the Taylor's advise companies, executives, entrepreneurs and married couples that choose to work together to achieve their ultimate goals, vision and dreams through the twelve intangibles of success that are outlined in his new book coming out in January 2019.

Taylor's philosophy has always retained the same formula - work hard, do what you say you are going to do, never ask someone to do something you're not willing to do yourself, always stay humble and that taking a chance is better than regretting you never tried.
