Eighty percent of all businesses fail in their first five years! When you are facing down those kind of odds, you'd better know exactly what you are doing before you take the plunge. Success lies in the system! Gerber knows that for a business to be prosperous it must function like a powerful machine. The type of business is irrelevant - a precise system of dynamic interplay between the connected parts should be in place.

ETHEREAL beyond comprehension
I have read most of Michael Gerber’s work and always felt it was insightful and pragmatic. I always keep an eye out for his new releases. I have also read countless business books over the past decades. HOWEVER, in Michael’s last 2 books, Zen and this one, it seems either he is so intelligent beyond my comprehension or so completely in the ether, and/or so general as to apply to any situation, similar to academicians, or Michael has been replaced by A.I. churning out Gerber Pablum like Soylent Green or the lost Elvis tapes. I will give him the benefit of the doubt he deserves, and I believe I am intelligent, educated and experienced, BUT I HAVE NO IDEA WTF HE IS TALKING ABOUT.
