Publisher's summary

In this audio edition of the totally revised underground best seller, The E-Myth, Michael Gerber dispels the myths surrounding starting your own business and shows how commonplace assumptions can get in the way of running a business. He walks you through the steps in the life of a business, from entrepreneurial infancy, through adolescent growing pains, to the mature entrepreneurial perspective, the guiding light of all businesses that succeed, and shows how to apply the lessons of franchising to any business, whether or not it is a franchise. Finally, Gerber draws the vital, often overlooked distinction between working on your business and working in your business. After you have listened to The E-Myth Revisited, you will truly be able to grow your business in a predictable and productive way.

Thought provoking

Even thought I work in IT, I've found the notion of "Franchising" inspiring. There is much to draw from, but it will take some thought. Great read (listen). Long. Dragged in some areas, for me. But worth it.

Life changing and revolutionary!

I thoroughly enjoyed how much I learned. Probably better to listen when you can take notes to retain it all!

Great book to create a business mindset

I enjoy how the book looks at the systems of business and that is creating a business itself. Often times the idea is the Passion but without the structure it can be quite difficult.
