FROM PURPOSE
TO PROFIT

MUSIC: Borgar by Alexander Nakarada

In a world chasing quick wins and superficial fixes, the real power of brand and business strategy often gets drowned out by the noise. But here’s the hard truth: half of small businesses don’t make it past the first three to five years—the so-called ‘make-or-break’ period of strategic planning. And a staggering 80% of these failures boil down to overhyped brand and marketing tactics that promise much and deliver little.

Businesses fall into the same traps: lack of strategic know-how, blind trend-chasing, and a short-sighted obsession with quick profits. These hidden mistakes don’t just stall growth—they lead to burnout, quiet quitting, and ultimately, collapse. The good news? They’re entirely avoidable with the right knowledge.

RUNNING A BUSINESS SHOULDN'T SUCK THE LIFE OUT OF YOU - IT SHOULD FUEL IL, INSPIRING YOU, YOUR TEAM, AND YOUR CUSTOMERS TO THRIVE.

YOUR BRAND IS THE SINGLE MOST IMPORTANT INVESTMENT YOU CAN MAKE IN YOUR BUSINESS.

Steve Forbes

So, what makes this book different from the usual same old?

 

  • Many exceptional marketing books stick to a narrow focus.

  • Renowned professors’ manuals? Packed with technical jargon and far too academic to feel approachable (can’t blame you).

  • Online guides give you the 'how,' but rarely the 'why' or 'what to do next” when ‘how’ doesn’t work.

  • Authority books? They tease you with partial insights, only to upsell expensive services later.

‘From Purpose to Profit’ isn’t just another marketing manual. It bridges the gap between surface-level guides and intimidating textbooks, delivering a practical, modern business guide that combines strategy, psychology, and 20 years of award-winning business expertise.


This is your blueprint for turning stress into satisfaction, packed with the tools and insights to rewrite the rules and forge a path where failure is not an option. An all-in-one solution introducing you to the foundations of business, brand, marketing, and communication strategies—the ultimate shield against the mistakes that sink so many businesses.

The best part? It’s not going to be yours.


Whether you’re a newbie navigating your first venture or a seasoned entrepreneur looking to level up, this guide has got you covered. Perfect for small-to-medium-sized businesses, ambitious start-ups, entrepreneurs crafting winning business plans, as well as business coaches and consultants. 

HEADS UP: The guide includes examples from industries like alcohol, tobacco, and sexual wellness—skip it at your own risk if these don’t vibe with you.

Literary Titan (Editorial Review)

The book deserves to succeed; every small business owner needs a book like this. It could become the 'Encyclopaedia Britannica' of business books! 

Terry Ch. (Online Marketing Manager, Independent Reviewer, NetGalley)

An amazing book that takes us from the idea to the practical plan for marketing in today's world! I love that this book is a start to finish complete book on how to get my name out into the business world. From the planning through the implementation, it shows step by step how to accomplish great things in our businesses. It also has an area to reformulate the approach to better serve the needs of the business and to work through the issues all of us have had within the context of marketing our business. This is a must have for those in business or are wanting to get their name or a product name out into the marketplace.

Jason W. (Independent Reviewer, Booksprout)

From Purpose to Profit is a groundbreaking and refreshing book that covers essential topics ranging from business strategy to brand positioning, offering an informative, well-rounded education. It fuses established theories with real-world experience, presenting an easily digestible format. The writing is crisp, and the conversational tone engages readers from the first page. The author has the extraordinary ability to break complex concepts into easy-to-understand language, and her tone carries the authority of an experienced, informed business strategist. This book is chockful of business wisdom for entrepreneurs and business owners at every level.

Romuald Dzemo (Editorial Review, Readers’ Favorite)

After 6+ years of seeking actionable guidance on building my brand, I finally feel on firm ground!

For brand owners (like me) in the SME space, including solopreneurs, this is the most coherent and comprehensive guide to brand marketing I've come across!

When the author called this book an A-Z, she was not speaking lightly!

I gleaned so many actionable insights that I converted much of the material into workbooks to help me put my learning into practice.

Miss M Steinberg (Solopreneur)

"From Purpose to Profit" stands out as an excellent marketing and strategy resource for entrepreneurs seeking to develop strategic thinking and leverage the best that marketing has to offer. The book is not just a static manual but a dynamic companion for businesses committed to sustained growth and meaningful impact.

Leonor A. (Business Coach and Consultant, former General Manager and Board Member)

A very detailed but easy to follow philosophy on how to really connect with your consumer and build your business. I recommend that even if you think you are an experience marketeer you should read this book. There are so many tips in here that will add value to what you do.

Lisa G. (MA, Head of Brand Development)

"From Purpose to Profit" is an incredible book that covers basics so well for anyone wanting to make sure nothing gets missed out. Mastering the basics is the cornerstone of excellence—there's always room for growth, no matter the level of expertise. The insights presented in the book are instrumental in reinforcing the fundamental skills essential for success. 

 Sam Sh. (Trainer, Mentor, AI Consultant, Author, KeyNote Speaker)

I liked this book! It's so well structured. From my experience, only a few small businesses will approach it so systematically, and this, of course, is a huge omission. Your guide would be a great support for those starting. It can be a reference book to go for to brush things up.

Kate G. (Marketing Lead SME)

There is a lot of helpful information I haven't come across before. I believe it will be suitable even for senior marketers. I will buy it for my team as a strategy reference book when it's published.

Anna K. (MA, European Marketing Director)

Thanks to your guide, the presentation went well. We won the tender. We presented three positionings to choose from. The customer liked all three and asked for quotes. I got a lot of valuable information, particularly handy from a practical point of view! There is much texture. It's factual, well-structured, and easy to read.

Kirill U. (MBA, Business Consultant, Entrepreneur)

It’s a great read! I love your writing. Such a great balance between informative and informal!
