About Jerry X Shea
I am an author, speaker, workshop facilitator and consultant to the small business community. Through my books and speaking programs I bring the experience of owning six different small businesses, combined with a passion for passing on tried and proven successful business practices, to anyone interested in growing their business. I consider myself an "information utility" to the small business community and an advocate for the small business owner.
I wrote my first book, IT LOOKS EASY! IS IT? Simple Steps for Small Business Success in 2001 to help new small business owners understand all the things involved in owning your own business and becoming your own boss. As a result of that book I put together four small business workshops that I present at small business Expos, Conventions and Chamber of Commerce meetings all around the country.
While understanding how important it is to have a Business Plan, it was my Prospecting - Presentation - Close workshops that filled the rooms. As a result, I put the highlights of those workshops into my 2011 book,
Prospecting - Presentation - Close
Your Three Keys To Successful Sales.
In 2013, I wrote a new book that answers the question many non-business folks keep asking me - "Mr. Shea, what does it take to be successful, not only in business, but in everyday life?" It's a Great Life If You Don't Weaken, The Power Of Next answers that question. With that book come some great new luncheon and
