Wow!!!

I have been a business owner for 8 years. I feel this powerful book has changed my life. All the time I spent working "in" my business, I had no clue how to work on it. The wisdom in the book has given my business a second chance.

I urge all people thinking about starting their own business to read this book as well as other books on how to create business processes and procedures. I also recommend "Your Marketing Sucks" for those who need to understand what not to do to promote your business.

I would have saved so much time AND LOTS OF MONEY had I spent even a few months educating myself on how to run a business. Take time to plan and educate yourself. So many businesses do fail before their tenth birthday. Mine almost did.

Excellent Book!

This book should be required reading if you're a small business owner. If you've ever wondered why you're working so hard and not getting ahead, Michael Gerber will show you why. This is the book to read about to learn how to systematize your business.
The main thesis of the book is that you should spend more time working on your business than in your business. Michael teaches you to build value in your company through developing your intellectual property. That means to figure out how you want your business to run and to be experienced by your customers. You then build systems to make that experience come alive.
It's powerful stuff. Get the book today and read it!

Repurchase of an old friend

I purchased two copies of this. One to give to a friend and one to replace my original which had become a victim of one of my wife's cleaning campaigns.

I will get around to re-reading this in due course, but I have, over the years, referenced sections of it. A must read especially for anyone without small business experience contemplating such a venture.

Great Revelations

This book really makes you think. I am a small business owner, and when he explains about the technician turned business owner working himself to death, the manager dying a neat death and the entrpreneur dying an extravagant death, I almost couldn't keep reading. It hit too close to home. It is followed by great tips on how to balance the three and how to look at your business as a franchise prototype, even if you are not going to franchise. How to implement systems that requires the LOWEST possible skillset instead of the highest, and much more. Very much an imortant read for anyone new in business or someone planning to start one up.
