Resumen del Editor

By drawing on his decades of experience working with small-business owners, Michael Gerber is adding to his mega-selling E-Myth series with The E-Myth Accountant. This installment provides a one-of-a-kind system for transforming an accountant’s practice into a business positioned for long-term growth.

This is the next installment in the series of E-Myth handbooks developed specifically for key industries. As with previous titles, The E-Myth Accountant has distilled small-business advice that specifically caters to this business segment. Although business owners know everything about their trade, very few know how to effectively run a business—the void that Michael Gerber can fill with his powerful advice. In Gerber’s signature easy-to-understand, easy-to-implement style, he addresses such specific aspects of the business as money, people, management, and growth.

It is hard to pick just one

Did Michael E. Gerber and M. Darren Root do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?

The interaction of the two readers was excellent

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

None in particuaar - too many to rate

So inspiring and gets me jumping

This is the second E-Myth I have listed to over the last 7 years. I listened to E-Myth Revisited probably 5 times and after reading (listening) to this one, I will indulge again.

very shallow book

michael gerber narration is amazing but the same can't be said for Darren Root. he maybe the best accountant or business leader but his narration is terrible. if you are an accountant that wish to have your own practice, that is fine but if you already have one for some years you will find much better books

Inspiring and challenging call to action....

An inspiring and challenging call to action for accountants who are stuck being technicians. There's hope. The challenges are strategic so there's lots of questions and and general guidance, all of which are very helpful, but I think most accountants would be wanting a greater level of specificity in examples. If you own your own practice or thinking about it, this is a good listen. It's narrated by the authors which I rarely find is best, and this is no different. It would benefit from professinal narration.

Great content - Poor narration by Darren

Mike does a good job at telling a story… Darren doesn’t.. very dry. Know when to hire a professional

Not professional quality audio. Not audible book friendly

I am an avid follower of both Michael Gerber and Darren Root because I respect both of them and I've learned a lot from them in business and accounting, respectively. I listen to audio books on a daily basis, But this is one of the worst recording paces and vocal pitch levels I've experienced. After 1.5x speed, it's a jumbled, mumbled mess. Gerber is bearable at 2x sometimes, but Darren is very hard to listen to at any speed. It's not a natural feeling slow or fast. I find myself adjusting my EQ and speed often just to get through it and understand them.

The CPA’s guide to being a CPA should be the title of this book!

The CPA’s guide to being a CPA should be the title of this book!

This should be required reading for all accountants.

M. E. Gerber improves on the concepts of the E-Myth in regards to the accounting industry by dropping practical truths and forcing all of us in practice to takes a good look in the mirror and take responsibility for the inefficiencies in your practice.

M. D. Root adds the perspective that only a CPA who's struggled to build a profitable practice can. His performance is what you would expect from an Account [insert joke here]. However, the actions you are asked to perform in the book to apply the principles more than make up for it.

Worth it

If you are trying to change your firm and want to start thinking outside the box, this reading is a great place to start.

Watch out Technician!!

This book was very informative and inspiring. I'm already thinking of ways to move my Bookkeeping practice to the next level out of adolescence.

Work smarter, not harder. Build your system for maximum efficiency and consistency. Delegate and outsource everything someone else can do better/cheaper. Focus on big picture, not putting out fires.
