Every business owner wants one thing: momentum. Momentum is what allows a small business to grow, maintain a loyal customer base, and overcome hurdles, from economic downturns to pandemics. But just how can businesses build the kind of momentum that allows for lasting success? In The Bizzics Way: Powering Your Small Business to Maximum Momentum, Chip Higgins explains how the principles of physics can help you reach that holy grail of momentum for your own small business. From creating entrepreneurial energy by rooting your business in a strong vision, to gaining mass by hiring the right employees, this book uses the laws of the natural world to simply explain the steps of the startup process.
The Bizzics Way covers the essentials that every small business owner needs to know, including writing a business plan, hiring employees, getting funding, learning to lead, and connecting with customers. The book also provides access to resources that entrepreneurs can use throughout their journey, from a mission statement template to a marketing plan. With this comprehensive treasure trove of tools and advice to guide them, small business owners can achieve the momentum they're seeking--the Bizzics way.

"Chip Higgins understands how small businesses work... and don't. As a banker, he's lent them money. As business owner, he's counseled them. As an author, he has merged practices of thriving businesses and immutable laws of physics into memorable, actionable guidance for small business owners who want to launch or expand their businesses."

"Passion is critical to success and mastery. I have personally watched Chip Higgins' passion for serving small business owners grow over the past 37 years. The Bizzics Way is the culmination of that journey. In it, Chip lays out the critical business principles required for any business owner to maximize momentum and, perhaps more importantly, provides the practical insights needed to implement them in your business."

"Right from the onset, Chip tells us that he became a banker because he saw the important role bankers played in his community. He says, "It was the way the bankers I knew contributed to the neighborhood and built it up." Forty-plus years later, Chip is still passionate about the way business leaders are contributing and building neighborhoods. The Bizzics Way is a love letter from a tireless and passionate advocate for leaders. Here is wisdom from someone who believes that small business leaders deserve the wisdom big business can access with their big budgets. In this book, you will glean applicable wisdom from someone who appreciates the struggles and promises of the small business, non-profit, or budding leader. My colleagues and I work in the non-profit sector in rural Uganda and are beneficiaries of these practical ideas. Chip draws on universal laws of physics such as energy, velocity, momentum, and so forth to drive home principles that deliver success regardless of the size of organization, mission, or geographical region. Chip provides a great deal of insight into why small business entrepreneurs exist, debunks the myths, and removes the excuses around success in business."

"Chip Higgins sets the scene wherever he goes. His spirit to help others and his experience in business almost immediately builds trust. What better person to write a book about stepping outside the box of 'business?' Chip's focus is on people, their energy, and building culture and trust-whether a teammate or a customer. A force of nature in the gentlest of ways, Chip always puts people first. For 15 years Chip has been available to me to advise, mentor, and support my small business. I'm so excited for him to share his knowledge and energy to help others grow their business, as he has helped me grow mine."
