Jordan-Thomas begins with the shift from employee to founder and then moves into the mechanics: finding a niche, turning classroom and leadership experience into defined services, setting prices, and building the brand and systems that let a business grow beyond one person. Her frameworks draw on her own move from the principal's office to running a company.
The book serves teachers, principals and other educators who are weighing consulting as a new direction, and readers who want a structured plan rather than general encouragement. The number in the title is a goal, not a promise; what the book supplies is the method.
