Unless you have been living in a cave for the past two years, you should already be aware that we are still in the middle of the Covid pandemic. No country can say with certainty that it has reached the endemic stage.

Therefore, watching streaming shows and making videos on Tiktok should not be our only entertainment. I believe that all business people should read at least one business book a week to improve their business skills and keep up with great business insights. Sometimes the benefits of a well-structured business reading program yield more benefits than attending a graduate program. Here are some tips for buying ledgers and how you can maximize their value.

bibliography

This is the first place (if any) I scan before opening a book at a bookstore. The reason is, I want to understand how carefully and seriously the author prepared the contents of the book. Just by looking at the reference sources I can tell if the book is based on a "Google inspired" search. I'd also like to see if the information is up to date

Purchase Information

Subject matter expert
Then I will read the author's biography and find out about his strengths and experiences. I could even email him for more details.
research
Some business books are the result of years of research on a specific topic. This book is very important because it summarizes the results and saves the reader countless time to analyze the research. That way, the reader will feel that the book is well spent, as all scientific works can be very expensive to buy.
permission
I always seem to contact the author for permission to use certain parts of his writing for my public presentations or PowerPoint slides. I feel like this not only gives me more credibility, it also allows him to learn more about my own business.
Network opportunities
It's important to find networking opportunities with these business writers when applicable. I think the quickest way to get their answer is to read your book in full and provide constructive feedback for possible improvements. Every good business writer loves feedback because they can collect it and maybe even use it as material for their next book!
Book review
You can do this by writing a book review. Even if you don't use it, you can collect this book review as a reference form for your own lectures.
