About this listen

As statistics tell us that most of the "ventureholics" who go out on their own to start a business will ultimately fail; and, as readers will learn, the main reason for this is because most businesses are not started the right way. Based on decades of experience working with small business owners, Michael Gerber will teach budding entrepreneurs his one-of-a-kind seven-step method - which is meant to be conceptualized long before the doors are ever opened, and what will ultimately position business' for long-term success and growth.

Not by writing a business plan or spending countless amounts of resources on marketing will readers learn what is essential to creating a successful small business. By following the methodology outlined in this book small business owners will be able to build a solid structure for their business - what it looks like, how it works, the fluency of performance, etc. It is not until these seven-steps are considered and fully-executed that the business will be prepared for growth.

MICHAEL E. GERBER is a best-selling author and founder and chairman of E-Myth Worldwide, a company that transforms the way small-business owners grow their companies. He has coached, taught, and trained over 60,000 small businesses in 145 countries, which has led him to become the world's preeminent small-business guru.

The true fundamentals of business success

It was difficult to grasp some of the stuff talked about but I got the idea of it every time.
The reader get's fired up sometimes which wakes you up when dosing off, but he's just feeding of the passion the writer wrote with. Great listen to get your mind right for business success.

Lot's of good principles

Good idea of achieving 10k growth instead of just working a job for yourself. He did not go in to detail on how to do it just replicate your good idea by following the principles

Second half needs an editor

This author is legendary and his most popular book, the E-myth, is a must read. It was out of respect for him and that book, that I purchased this and forced myself to listen to the end. I found the first few chapters very engaging, but at least the second half of the book felt like transcripts of speeches that have simply been transcribed. The first half of the book was well honed. The second half dragged on with lots of filler statements that went on and on and on and on and on and on and on (get the point?). I gather the author either changed editors for the second half, or felt pressure to fill a word count by the publisher. Either way what could’ve been an outstanding small book was turned into a mediocre long one. Enjoy the first few chapters. Those are five stars.

Fantastic Book

It was able to put what I have found very complicated and esoteric as the creation of corporation, companies or a small business into a very simple form yet tremendously profound. Amazing book.

Why politics?

Adding politics to the book was unnecessary. I also felt like I was being yelled at at certain parts.

Nice topic bud mainly motivational

I listen to the topic it was nice but mainly motivational it does not give you any idea how to run a successful business you have to come up with everything on your own and in the end it tells you to call him up for further information
