#Defy Mediocrity ť Sales Comments Feed Defy Mediocrity Sales Download

"This book changed my life. This book really serves as a wakeup call to
anyone that works for a living. It focuses you on the fact that you and
only you are responsible for your own success. You can't help but read
the book and constantly say "Wow, I can't believe I used to think that
way". This is truly one of the reference books of my life. I refer to
it whenever I'm feeling dissatisfied or unfulfilled at work. I highly
recommend it."
A review posted on Amazon

Now for the first time

"DEFY MEDIOCRITY. CHOOSE TO BE UNCOMMON. THINK OF THE ALTERNATIVE."

is available as a 5 CD Audio Book exclusively on this website.

Hello this is Derrick Welch.

Please let me ask you a few questions.

Do you ever lay awake at night wondering if you will have a job next
week?

Are you worried about your future?

Do you ever ask yourself why you don't have the level of success you
feel you should or could in your life and on the job?

Have you ever imagined what it would be like to face your family and
friends after being laid off?

Would you like to stop worrying about layoffs and start thinking about
promotions?

Would you like to start moving forward in your career and begin to
reach the goals you know you are capable of reaching but simply have
never been able to?

Do you believe that job security simply does not exist anymore?

Do you feel that if you continue doing things in your life and on the
job the way you have always done them that you will continue to get the
same results you have always gotten?

If you are like most of us I am sure you answered yes to most, if not
all, of these questions.

"The invaluable advice in your book has changed my life during the last
few months and gave me a vision to know how to plan and manage my life
and my future. Thank you Derrick you are a mentor in my life."
Bryce Jeon Seoul, Korea

This is exactly why I wrote "Defy Mediocrity. Choose to be uncommon.
Think of the alternative.". This book was written specifically to help
give you the tools you need to become the best you can in your career
and in life.

This is a book about defying mediocrity. It is a book about conquering
the dozens of self-defeating traits so many of us have that hold us
back in our careers and our lives and prevents us from doing all we are
capable of doing and of becoming.

This is a book about the pursuit of individual excellence!

"I think you have created another Masterpiece"
Pat Garufi

Mediocrity manifests itself in many ways. It cannot simply be turned on
and off.

It is a silent killer of careers and dreams.

I can guarantee you your self-defeating traits are holding you back on
the job and in your life!

They are self-inflicted road blocks you are putting in front of
yourself.

Road blocks that will stop you from ever reaching the professional and
personal heights you could and should reach.

"Defy Mediocrity. Choose to be uncommon. Think of the alternative."
will show you how to eliminate these road blocks and how easy it is to
become the best you can be.

"I was given a copy of (Defy Mediocrity) by my division retail manager
and asked to read it. It lit me on fire. I have read through it four
times and referred to it many more times. I think about something in
the book every day because not only do the things you write about
pertain to the business world but also to the family and the values we
can try to instill in our children. If anyone reads this book and can't
see that Mediocrity is surrounding us and trying to get its hold on us
they obviously can't be too concerned about improving themselves. Thank
you for the opportunity to be enlightened by your book."
Cameron Ryan, Manager - Econo Foods
* If you are seeking ways to make your job far more secure in this
age of employment instability, this book will show you how.
* If you want to dramatically increase your value to the company,
this book will show you how.
* If you want to become much better at what you do and how you do it,
this book will show you how.
* If you want to begin to reach the levels of potential you have
within you, this book will show you how.
* If you want to move ahead in your career and your life as rapidly
as possible, this book will show you how.

Whether you are starting the first day of your first job or whether you
have been in the work force for most of your life, this book will give
you the tools you need to defy mediocrity and reach your true potential
on the job and in life.

Where you are and where you have been is not the issue. Where you want
to go and who you want to become is.

Once you take the simple steps required to defeat mediocrity
on-the-job, your attitude, commitment, and quest for constant
improvement will carry over to every area of your life.

It really is this simple! This book will show you how.

"Your book was written for me. I have read many books in law school and
business school. However I have never read a book like yours. I think
this book should be mandatory in all
business schools. It is a book for everyone that desires to improve
their career as well as their life in general.

This is a fabulous book! I have read it numerous times and now have
heard it on CD for the 3rd time. I needed to read a book like yours and
learn to apply it in my life. Thank you for that lesson. I am going to
require that all my employees read it."
George Hong, President HJC America

Let me also point out what this book is not about. It is not about the
power of positive thinking.

It is not about self-visualization. It is not about corporate politics
and how to play the game to get ahead.

It is not about processes. It is not about re-engineering your career.
It is not about paradigms. It contains no theory or idealism.

I will leave this type of motivational writing to others.

"You may not like reading some of the things in this book, but you will
love what the application of this information will do for your career."
Katherine Demetriades, Art Director

It is a blunt, hard-hitting, no nonsense guide written to show you how
to dramatically improve what you do and how you do it.

It is about reality. The reality of improving your job stability, of
rapidly moving ahead in your career, of improving your life, and of
reaching the potential you have within you.

Speaking as an employer, an employee, a co-worker, and a customer, I
can say without hesitation that mediocrity surrounds us. It has become
an epidemic. It is a disease that is destroying the ability of every
company in this country to be competitive.

It is a condition that is preventing so very many from ever scratching
the surface of who and what they can become and accomplish.

It knows no discrimination.

It can affect every one of us if we do not fight against it every day.
It can hurt our careers and our life.

It limits our potential. It holds us back.

It is keeping you down. It is holding you back. It is stopping you from
even beginning to approach the potential you have within you.

Think about this. The average person's IQ is around 100. An IQ of over
160 qualifies you as a genius.

Imagine that. A genius is only 60% smarter, according to the experts,
than the average person. In other words, if you can read this a genius
could not possibly be even twice as smart as you are.

So how can so many accomplish so much more than others? The simple
answer can be found in this book.

"I have listened to so many different motivational / sales CDs and
yours is amazing & powerful. It is not good --- it is GREAT!"
Linda Becker

"I think everyone in business should be required to read "Defy
Mediocrity". Mr. Welch, we at Southern Office Supply, Inc. believe your
book points a finger at each employee here including myself. Anybody
and everybody can get some excellent insights about themselves and
their fellow employees by reading your book.We are going to add "Defy
Mediocrity" to our required reading list. Again, we think your book is
an excellent tool to rebuild, rejuvenate, reiterate, what modern day
business is all about. Thank you for your insight into the business
world and how important continued and improved productivity can be even
to a small business."
Anthony McKee, President, Southern Office Supply, Inc.
If you are a business owner or manager how much money are your
employees costing you?
"Defy Mediocrity: Chose to be uncommon. Think of the Alternative" will
provide the wakeup call your employees need.

Your employees are perhaps your most important asset. If you are like
most companies, they also represent the single largest expense your
company has. Unfortunately, employees in most companies are simply not
performing as well as they could be or should be.

If you are a business owner or manager, underperforming employees limit
your ability to be competitive. They drain productivity. They can
seriously hurt morale. They have a direct and negative impact on the
profitability of your organization. Yes, your employees are probably
your largest cost and among your largest headaches.

But your employees are also the one thing that can provide you with the
largest gains for the lowest cost.

"If you want to significantly increase productivity while dramatically
improving morale put a copy of "Defy Mediocrity" in the hands of each
of your employees. It will tell them things your managers can't or
won't. Do them a favor and do your company a favor and give them a copy
of this book!"
Frank Bunker East Coast Sales Manager, Walker-Clay, Inc.

To defeat apathy, procrastination, the attitude of entitlement,
absenteeism, low productivity, poor quality, complacency and dozens of
other negative traits is to "Defy Mediocrity". This book will remind
your employees of why they were hired, of what their job is, of how
their efforts impact the company. It will:
* Show them why their efforts and contributions must come before the
rewards and promotions.
* Help create support for management.
* Provide the motivation they need and may not be getting.
* Get them to start looking out for the company instead of
themselves.
* Show your employees how to improve their value to the company and
why it benefits them to do so.
* Teach them what it takes to excel.
* Teach them how easy it is to become an impact employee.
* Show them the importance of integrity and pride.
* Make them want to start taking responsibility for their actions and
inactions.
* Show them how their ideas, and not just their efforts, can
dramatically impact the company in a positive manner.
* Make them want to solve problems, not just point out every one they
see.
* Show them why what they do is so much more important than what they
say.
* Show them the importance of embracing change and helping to make it
succeed.
* Show them the critical importance of internal customer service and
how it can make their job so much more productive and enjoyable.
* Show them why the company must come first.

"Defy Mediocrity: Choose to be uncommon. Think of the Alternative."
will teach them all this and much more while showing them why and how
it benefits them to think and act this way. An employee driven to excel
can make an astounding impact on the productivity, morale, quality, and
service of your company. All of which lead to dramatically increased
productivity, quality and profits.

Shouldn't you put a copy in the hands of each employee today?

"I put a copy of "Defy Mediocrity" in the hands of every one of my
employees and I make sure all new employees get a copy before they
start the first day. If you want your employees to start living up to
their potential, you will too. We have never had a better return on
such a meager investment."
Joe Kameese, CEO, American Business Connections
Who is Derrick Welch?

A fair question. After all, you should want to know what qualifies me
to write this book. Having spent over 3 decades in senior management
positions with both large and small companies I am not someone who has
read about what to do, or has only told others what to do.

I have done what I write about. I have years of hands-on experience in
operations, marketing, administration, production, and in just about
every other area of business.

I am not an MBA or Ph.D. and while I do have degrees in Business
Administration, Marketing, and Management, textbooks and classrooms
have not taught me how to dramatically increase the productivity and
profitabilty of any business.

Most of what I have learned has been through trial and error. I have
worked on the production floor and in the boardroom.

I have helped run very successful companies and I have turned around
companies that had been bleeding red. I have started at the bottom and
worked my way up.

This book will show you the same strategies I used to help me become
Vice President of a major Boston based Advertising Agency at the age of
27 and Chief Operating Officer / Vice President of Operations of a
nationwide multi-million dollar company at the ripe old age of 31.

What helped me win these jobs and succeed in them were the ideas and
strategies contained in this book and my other book "In Pursuit of
Profits: How to at least double your profits without increasing your
sales."

The same strategies I used with one company that made them so
profitable and made the owner so much money that the owner gave me 10%
ownership of his nationwide multimillion dollar company!

Oh, by the way, I should mention that my education was not what got me
these positions. I dropped out of college at the age of 21 and in fact,
I did not even get my first college degree until I turned 37 years old.

These accomplishments were obtained in spite of not having a college
degree, not because of it.

As I have told you before, few things are more valuable to an employer
than a manager or employee whose ideas and efforts help dramatically
improve the company. This book will show you how.

I hope you will join owners, executives, managers, and employees from
the very long list of companies, public and private, for profit and non
profit, from small businesses to Fortune 500 companies, from virtually
every industry who are using the knowledge and strategies contained in
"Defy Mediocrity: Choose to be uncommon. Think of the Alternative" to
dramatically improve their job stability, career path and life.

My best,
Derrick W. Welch
