The company has also recently produced an E-book about leadership techniques. The intention is to replace the workshops with the annual conference in the next financial year as the workshops were not well attended and client feedback indicates a personalised, company focused approach in the form of consulting services is the service of choice. The E-book has had reasonable sales but there needs to be a wider selection of books, as well as more marketing. The plan is to generate $10,000 worth of sales for the e-books during the next financial year and increasing over time. As the General Manager for the company and with responsibility for finances, you are currently completing the financial planning for the year ahead.
