I Will Teach You Excel: Master Excel, surpass your co-workers, and impress your boss!
Ever get passed up for a promotion or pay increase and wonder, "why didn't I get it"? Ever wonder if your skills are good enough to compete in today's crowded job market? You work hard, go above and beyond and still can't seem to get noticed. Many of today's jobs require that you be familiar with Microsoft Excel. How can you become proficient at Excel when companies aren't willing to teach you this valuable skill?
This leaves many people trying to learn as they go and never quite feeling 100% comfortable with the program. What's worse, most people haven't even scratched the surface of Excel's potential, even if they've been using it for years. If you feel this way, you're not alone.
Think about this for a second; what will your career look like in a year if you don't take action today and improve your Excel skills? How about five years from now? Unless you take matters into your own hands things may not look much different.
According to a recent Wall Street Journal article, people who show proficiency in Microsoft Excel and other common office applications earn, on average, 13% more than those who don't. For most people this could mean tens of thousands of dollars over just a few years, and this doesn't even factor in lost promotions and job offers. Can you afford to leave so much on the table as a result of maintaining the status quo?
I've experienced this transformation in my career and can tell you first hand how it has helped me. When I was fresh out of college and working my first accounting job my manager asked me to complete a project that involved using VLOOKUPS. I enthusiastically obliged, walked back to my desk, and proceeded to panic. I tricked myself into thinking that I was an excel expert only because I knew a few formulas, my limited knowledge only scratched the surface. I turned to a college buddy for help; Google. I eventually managed to learn what I needed, after a lot of time and energy.
I've climbed the ladder and worn many hats since then. I can't say that the opportunities I've earned in my career are solely due to my increasing Excel proficiency. What I can definitely say is that Excel has earned me more opportunities to prove myself to management than waiting for opportunities to materialize on their own.
That's why I decided to write this book. My goal is to take you from Excel novice to master in the shortest time possible. I wrote my book specifically for the busy professional, in an easy to read manner that gets straight to the point and teaches the meat of Excel. I wrote this book for you.
>
I have helped many people improve their careers through Excel and now it's your turn. Here is what you get when you download my book:
-18 chapters of the most useful Excel techniques that will immediately take your skills to the next level
-Practical use cases plus downloadable workbooks so that you can take what you learn and feel, first hand, how to apply those skills to real world scenarios
-A FREE copy of my latest book on Google Sheets so you can stay ahead of the curve
You're at the point of decision. You can either continue down the path of least resistance, the path you have already been traveling, or you can choose the road less traveled. The path of least resistance will probably result in you getting the same outcomes you've always received.
But if you want something different to happen, if you want to change the direction of your career you're going to have to do something different. Make a choice now, pursue new outcomes.

Secrets to Ebook Publishing Success (Smashwords Guides 3)
"This book actually made me cry at the end and that is unusual for a non-fiction book. It just gave me the validation as a writer that I've never had before. Seldom do I run across other writers in person and so reading Mark's book really was a confidence booster. I recommend this book to all writers especially those who are new. It's the added boost we all need to see our little "babies" rise from the literary crib to adulthood."

Europe after the Minotaur: Greece and the Future of the Global Economy
Syriza's victory in the Greek general election in January 2015 is a truly historic and profound event - the first government of the radical left in Europe since World War Two. In this short ebook, extracted from the updated edition of The Global Minotaur, Yanis Varoufakis, the new finance minister of Greece and a Syriza MP, outlines his economic and political thinking and how he believes Europe can move beyond cuts and austerity.
Varoufakis shows how today's crisis in Europe is one inevitable symptom of a global 'system' which is now as unsustainable as it is imbalanced. With powerful clarity and conviction, he lays out the options available to us for reintroducing reason into a highly irrational global economic order.
This is a unique insight into the thinking of a key figure in the Syriza government, who is set to become a hugely influential figure in European politics.

How to Price an Ebook: A Guide for Independent Authors (Free Gifts for Indie Authors Book 2)
As an independent author (a.k.a. "indie author"), you must oversee all aspects of your own book business from the project management aspect of things (e.g., writing, editing, designing, proofreading, indexing, publishing) to the financial end of things. If you're feeling stumped when it comes to setting your manufacturer's suggested retail price (MSRP), you're not alone. Many indie authors are in the same boat. I wrote this mini ebook for all of you, and I'm giving it away free of charge along with an earlier mini ebook I wrote titled An Independent Author's Checklist: What You Need to Have Ready for Ghostwriters, Editors, and Graphic Designers. I hope you find both these resources to be informative and helpful supplements to my other full-length ebooks and paperbacks.
This is an important ebook for indie authors to read. I've written several articles and blog posts about how to price an ebook in the past, but I've never been this strategic with regard to tailoring one's prices for both Western and Eastern world markets. In retrospect, up until 2016, I had a pretty narrow view of how to price ebooks outside of North America and Europe. What changed for me in 2016? Quite simply, I became a little more "worldly" when I travelled to Asia for a working holiday. What I learned during my six-month trip will no doubt help many indie authors like you with the pricing aspect of a book business.
I'm still a strong proponent of value-based marketing. As I've stated many times in the past, most indie authors are already pretty comfortable with price-based marketing (e.g., offering really low prices to try to undercut one's competition). At the end of the day, anyone can sell based on price. Right? But here's the biggest problem with that plan: if a low price is the only thing you've got, and then another indie author with a similar ebook comes in at a lower price than you can match, you're done. You're finished. You've got nowhere else to go. But if you can learn how to sell based on value, right from the start, then you'll always be able to justify your price where it is, no matter what other indie authors are doing. You can even increase that price, down the road, by adding more value to your overall offering. Value-based selling is such an important skill for all indie authors to learn, no matter where you live in the world.
That said, my trip to the "Eastern World" opened up my eyes to all the different markets today's indie authors can sell into. What might be considered a discount rate in one region of the world is actually considered a value-based rate in another. So, as I discuss in more detail throughout this mini ebook, it's important for indie authors to be strategic in the way you're pricing each and every one of your ebooks. Your ability to understand each individual market and adjust your prices accordingly will make all the difference to your sales success around the world. Good luck!

China's Economic Transformation: Lessons, Impact, and the Path Forward
China's efforts to transition from an economy driven by investment and exports to one based on private consumption and services are roiling global markets. Its problems are compounded by an economic slowdown, rising debt levels, languishing real estate market, and lagging productivity growth. In these essays, scholars from the Peterson Institute for International Economics (PIIE) recommend a number of reforms for Chinese leaders to consider, including steps to further open up its capital account and develop its financial markets. This collection of papers is part of a series of interactions and discussions between PIIE and the China Finance 40 (CF40) Forum, which began in 2012. The papers are intended to illuminate the challenges facing China as it engages increasingly with the global economy and builds on its phenomenal economic success of the past three decades.

Your Ebook is an Asset … if You Own the Copyright (Free Gifts for Indie Authors 4)
According to renowned American businessman and investor, Robert Kiyosaki, an "Asset can be anything as long as it has value, produces income or appreciates, and has a ready market. Assets put money IN your pocket." Before Kiyosaki's popular Rich Dad Poor Dad book was published, many of us viewed our homes as our own assets. But we now realize that, so long as we're paying a mortgage on it, our home is actually the bank's asset. It is producing a regular source of cash flow for the bank, but not for us.
This same concept applies when it comes to your book--depending on the format of book you choose to produce and which publishing model you choose to publish it through. I used to believe that all books were assets for their respective copyright owners, but I've since changed my tune. Digital ebooks and audiobooks have the potential to be lucrative assets, as do print-on-demand (POD) paperbacks and hardcovers. Mass-printed paperbacks and hardcovers, on the other hand, are straight-up liabilities due to the outdated economic practices still employed by the traditional players in our book supply chain. This long-established system repeatedly bleeds money from the pockets of publishers and authors alike which is why so many are now choosing to publish their titles in ebook format alone. It just makes better fiscal sense, as we'll discuss in this mini ebook.
Ebooks, in particular, can be highly profitable digital assets for both fiction and non-fiction authors, online marketers, and business professionals in general. Think about it from a strictly business perspective for a moment; you'll quickly see that an ebook is a portable business card that can be delivered instantaneously, anywhere in the world, for free or for sale, via email, blog, website, or ecommerce site. An ebook can be read in the comfort of one's home or office, during a commute by train or airplane, or even when standing and waiting in line. Ebooks are easily searchable documents that can be hyperlinked to other relevant information sources (e.g., company webpages, blogs), providing even more value to the reader. Ebooks are updateable which is especially helpful to those who wish to keep their information relevant and stay on top of the dynamic Internet. With a digital asset like an ebook, you don't have to pay storage or maintenance fees of any kind. Best of all, there are hundreds of thousands of affiliate marketers out there who are more than happy to help others promote and sell their digital assets all over the world. Pretty much every major ecommerce site has its own affiliate program now, and this is like having a massive sales team at your disposal without having to pay anyone an upfront salary.
Still not convinced that an ebook is an asset? Well, there is a form of online book sales and marketing known as "rapid release" publishing that many of today's most successful independent authors are using to sell literally thousands of ebooks every year. Ask them and they'll assure you an ebook is indeed an asset, and a highly fruitful asset at that.

Why Traditional Bookstores Won’t Carry Your Book on Their Shelves … and Why That’s Okay (Free Gifts for Indie Authors 3)
Many of today's indie authors are content with self-publishing ebooks alone on Kobo and Amazon's Kindle. Others who wish to offer a paperback version for your readers may be satisfied with simply converting those ebooks into print-on-demand (POD) paperbacks for sale through Amazon.
But many indie authors dream of seeing your books on the shelves of the traditional "bricks and mortar" bookstores, and you may wonder why these bookstores won't carry your self-published titles. The real reason may surprise you, and it may also make you decide that it's okay to stick with ebook and POD selling online. Times are changing, after all.
But times are changing a little more slowly in the world of traditional bookstores. Many of the long-established players in the book supply chain--trade publishers, distributors, and booksellers in particular--still follow the same archaic European business practices that were implemented in America in the 1930s as a way to stimulate bookstore sales during the great depression. These policies are unique to "bricks and mortar" booksellers; and it is these policies, more than any other factor, that shape which titles they will stock on their shelves.
BOOKSTORES ARE FANTASTIC VENUES FOR ONE-DAY CONSIGNMENT AUTHOR SIGNINGS
Not only is it possible to move a surprising number of books during a bookstore signing (if planned properly ahead of time); it is also a great way for fledgling indie authors to get used to being "on display" in public. There isn't the same pressure to perform and entertain as there is at an evening book launch and reading event. Bookstores offer a much more comfortable arena for indie authors to learn how to talk about and sell your books to others. So, please know that I'm a strong advocate of bookstores in general--of celebrating new books in person through bookstore signings. There's no more special place in the world to launch a new title, in my opinion.
And here's the great news! Most--if not all--traditional bookstores will support indie author signings on a one-day (e.g., three hours in the afternoon) consignment basis even if they won't carry your self-published books on their shelves for general browsing. For three solid hours you'll get your own table, and you and your book will get to be front and center in the bookstore. That's a very good thing, believe me. It's much better than being tucked away on a shelf somewhere out of sight.
A NEW RELATIONSHIP WITH BOOKSTORES
There is a form of online book sales and marketing that many of today's most successful indie authors are using to sell literally thousands of books every year--quantities that are unheard-of and unimaginable for most trade-published authors whose books are displayed on "bricks and mortar" bookstore shelves. Authors, can you imagine how much more profit you would earn if you learned these tried and true strategies for success? Publishers, can you imagine how much more profit you would earn if your authors were out there actively selling their own books alongside your in-house publicity, sales, and marketing efforts? Bookstores, can you imagine how much more profit you would earn if you were using your co-op advertising dollars to support in-store book signings and online book launches for the authors who are willing to bring their traffic straight to your physical stores and websites? There is a way for authors, publishers, and booksellers to all work together for our mutual benefit, and I believe it is the wave of the future in this industry.

Digital Kenya: An Entrepreneurial Revolution in the Making (Palgrave Studies of Entrepreneurship in Africa)
This book is open access under a CC BY 4.0 license.
Presenting rigorous and original research, this volume offers key insights into the historical, cultural, social, economic and political forces at play in the creation of world-class ICT innovations in Kenya. Following the arrival of fiber-optic cables in 2009, Digital Kenya examines why the initial entrepreneurial spirit and digital revolution has begun to falter despite support from motivated entrepreneurs, international investors, policy experts and others. Written by engaged scholars and professionals in the field, the book offers 15 eye-opening chapters and 14 one-on-one conversations with entrepreneurs and investors to ask why establishing ICT start-ups on a continental and global scale remains a challenge on the "Silicon Savannah". The authors present evidence-based recommendations to help Kenya to continue producing globally impactful ICT innovations that improve the lives of those still waiting on the side-lines, and to inspire other nations to do the same.

The Arab Spring Five Years Later, Volume 1: Toward Greater Inclusiveness
The dilemma felt particularly by Arab youth was captured in Tunisia by the self-immolation in 2010 of Mohamed Bouazizi, who was frustrated by restrictions on his small street-vending business. Bouazizi's death became the catalyst that seemed to light up revolts throughout the Middle East. The frustration had been building for some time: large segments of society were denied economic progress, while the middle class was squeezed, and governments had cut back on services and public employment. Since the series of uprisings began, the debate in Arab countries has focused almost exclusively on politics and questions of national identity. In fact, economic issues are driving the agenda, and real economic grievances must be addressed in order for the many transitions to succeed. Ghanem gives a thorough assessment of the Arab Spring, beginning with political developments since the revolutions and changes in the legal and institutional frameworks that affect economies. Arab economies grew at healthy rates before the revolts, but the benefits of economic growth were unfairly distributed. The politically connected reaped great benefits, while educated youth could not find decent jobs, and the poor and middle class struggled to make ends meet. Ghanem advises that Arab countries need to adopt new economic policies and programs that enhance inclusiveness, expand the middle class, and foster growth in undeveloped regions. Key elements include strengthening economic institutions, developing small businesses, reforming the education system to better prepare Arab youth for the modern labor market, promoting gender equality with the objective of raising female labor market participation rates, and setting up programs for rural and regional development to reduce inequality and eliminate extreme poverty.
