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.

A must read!

I'm several years into my entrepreneurial journey and this book was a breath of fresh air. Easily the best way to visualize how to turn your business into a business and not a job.

Gets you hooked

The book gets you hooked very fast. there is a lot in here so listen all the way through. there is a lot in the last third that might seem stupid. However, these things are a must to any size business.
