Synopsis

Startups are an admirable new world that many are eager to explore because of fortune, fame, to test the true capabilities of this exponential technology Era, or to simply test the boundaries of their own creativity. While before, many visionaries and entrepreneurs were called eccentric or delusional, this new world of startups has made it possible for them to be socially accepted and to also thrive.

However, statistics show that nine out of ten startups fail and that this is not only undeniable data but also a hard and bleak truth.

"Queen Be" delves deep into the top mistakes made by startups while coping with this fast-moving new world, helping entrepreneurs spot and avoid these mistakes before they surface within their companies . Yet, most importantly, "Queen Be" presents a new, simple and operational business blueprint that will assist entrepreneurs in building their own sustainable ventures.

"Queen Be" shifts the paradigm of frenetic growth and overworking company cultures to an innovative "BEing-centered" approach to business. It also includes several success stories of female entrepreneurs that have proven it's possible to do it differently.

After spending almost half of my career in big corporations, feeling the urge to unleash my unconventional thinking, I decided it was time to put my experience to the test and began a never-ending love story with the startup ecosystem.

I discovered that these freshly shaped structures are the perfect test tube to give birth to any idea related to groundbreaking products or services, unusual team structures, cool job titles or fantastic office perks that would make you relive your wildest childhood dreams. Whatever the case, it's impossible to not be fascinated by how startups unlock the infinite possibilities of human potential.

A large number of startups are either founded on, or built around, new generations of employees that are easily drawn into the dream that these new companies present.

At the same time, the arising of Millennials and Generation Z is nurturing the startup ecosystem. It is also instilling a worldwide consciousness change that companies cannot ignore. This profound transformation is forcing companies to reevaluate their long-term value creation to customers, employees, society, and the environment.

For startups, this change is an imperious survival need that can dictate "Do" or "Die" in a matter of weeks.

Virtualbookworm Publishing logo Virtualbookworm Publishing

Virtualbookworm (VBW) Publishing was founded by a writer frustrated by the long wait time and occasional heartbreak often associated with the publishing industry. After researching the various "alternatives," he discovered a number of subsidy publishers that would publish any author ... for a price. Unfortunately, many reviewers (and readers) thumb their noses at books from such houses, since all it takes is cash to get published by them.

Then he discovered self publishing and the endless opportunities it presented. However, such a venture requires countless hours of research of printers, proofreaders, artists, etc. And after publication, even more time is consumed trying to market the book.

So, Virtualbookworm.com was established as a "clearinghouse" for authors, since it offers virtually everything under one roof. Although we now charge setup and design fees, those costs are kept to a minimum so as to cover all expenses. And, as with "traditional" publishers, we carefully review each manuscript and only offer contracts to authors who truly have exceptional manuscripts. We don't print garbage, and we want our authors to proudly say they were published by Virtualbookworm. If we accept your book for publication, you can rest assured that it will be sold next to other quality books, and not just work that had enough money behind it. And, you'll receive some of the best royalties in the business!

Since our initial costs are so low, we want your books to sell as much as you do.
