The 10th anniversary edition of the bestselling foundational business training manual for ambitious readers, featuring new concepts and mental models: updated, expanded, and revised.

Many people assume they need to attend business school to learn how to build a successful business or advance in their career. That's not true. The vast majority of modern business practice requires little more than common sense, simple arithmetic, and knowledge of a few very important ideas and principles.

The Personal MBA 10th Anniversary Edition provides a clear overview of the essentials of every major business topic: entrepreneurship, product development, marketing, sales, negotiation, accounting, finance, productivity, communication, psychology, leadership, systems design, analysis, and operations management...all in one comprehensive volume.

Inside you'll learn concepts such as:

The 5 Parts of Every Business: You can understand and improve any business, large or small, by focusing on five fundamental topics.

The 12 Forms of Value: Products and services are only two of the twelve ways you can create value for your customers.

4 Methods to Increase Revenue: There are only four ways for a business to bring in more money. Do you know what they are?

Business degrees are often a poor investment, but business skills are always useful, no matter how you acquire them.

The Personal MBA will help you do great work, make good decisions, and take full advantage of your skills, abilities, and available opportunities--no matter what you do (or would like to do) for a living.

THE CREDIT PEOPLE: “JUST YOUR ORDINARY EVERYDAY CREDIT SUPER HEROES!”

Founded in 2001, and seen in The Wall Street Journal, Smart Money, and USA Today, The Credit People® help improve your credit reports and raise your credit scores through expert credit repair services.

With 20+ years of experience helping over one hundred thousand people with their credit, we never set out to be the leaders, just the best.

Here's an inside look at our hand-picked teams:

Hiring The Credit People to improve your credit is like having a highly trained swat team on your side. (Except our swat team greets you with a smile and keeps everything simple.)

Credit Repair Team:

Disputes, and Letters, and Creditors, OH MY! Having processed over 310,000 unique credit reports, this team is your front line. Not only certified and trained in the various laws governing credit repair, such as the Fair Credit Reporting Act, The Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act, and the Fair Debts Collections Practices Act, but your credit repair team has required ongoing training in recent laws, statutes, and credit reporting practices.

Score Analysis Team:

No two credit reports are created equal. What affects your credit score, and how it improves, requires special attention. Just deleting negative information from a credit report without addressing the credit score is like repairing the inside of a crashed car, but neglecting to do anything about the outside appearance. Understanding debt to income ratio, credit type ratio, scoring models, and of course, credit history, is key. The Credit People have yet to see another company follow new trends as closely. This is what our score-driven results® are all about.

Support Team:

Let's face it; your credit report is all about the numbers. That doesn't mean you need to be treated like one.

Sales Team:

These are the folks that you probably signed up with over the phone. They have absolutely no sales skills, and we want to keep it that way! When you're the best choice, there's no need to be “salesy”. Instead, our team is here to walk you through the credit repair process and ensure smooth sailing when you sign-up. They get things started off on the right foot!

Executive Team:

“Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain!” Our executive team consists of people who have a heart for helping people improve their credit and a mind for making it happen. Guiding the mission of The Credit People team, our executives steer the ship in the right direction, always.

Tech Team:

Yes, credit repair companies have technology teams. We take security seriously. 2048bit encryption, PCI compliance, data depository, all of this is in place to protect your important personal information.

Marketing Team:

You probably found us somehow, and that somehow was all because of our marketing team. In a way, they are the ones responsible for bringing us together! A match made in heaven.

The Credit Partners:

Our independent sales force, our “affiliates”. We have an entire team devoted to just catering to the needs of our affiliates.

TechSoup equips changemakers with transformative technology solutions and skills they need to improve lives globally and locally.

We do much more than offer discounts on the tools that you need. Read about all our great initiatives and how we get these resources — and more — into the hands of people working for good all over the world.
