For any small business owner - as most of my clients are - do yourself a favor and go buy yourself a book. The book I’m recommending is E-Myth: Why Most Small Businesses Don’t Work and What to Do About It. You can buy it here: Amazon.com for 11 bucks!

It basically talks about how to turn your business into a system that works instead of a place that breaks as soon as you walk out the door. I’m trying to figure out how to create a system that performs in the way my clients and vendors (and wife) anticipate. I’m sick of everything revolving around me. I leave; I’m working. I get home with a ton of emails, tickets, and phone calls to return. Something is really broken, but I, though I love to fix, don’t know how to fix this one.

Anyway, enter E-myth. Nothing magic, just good, practical advice and education. It’s good reading for any small business owner.

That’s my recommendation for the day.

Now get to work!
