What you don’t know CAN hurt you!
Well, I have finally come to the realization that what you don’t know CAN hurt you! My business is taking off and is becoming a huge success! That is a GOOD thing! But it was a bad thing, too!
I was finally able to come to grips with this “monster” I created by reading a book by Michael E. Gerber “The E Myth Revisited”. The subtitle reads Why Most Small Business Don’t Work and What to Do About It.
This should be recommended reading for all small businesses! It “turned the light on” for me in so many areas.
My web design business had gotten to the point that I didn’t even like it anymore, much less Love it! Everything had gotten out of control. So much of my time was spent “running the business”, that I no longer had time to do what I love – design websites! That’s what I started the whole thing for! Good grief!
Mr. Gerber’s book, though, is getting me back on track and now I am taming the monster and getting back to doing what I love.
I found out that I know a lot about designing custom websites and making them work properly, but I knew very little about running a business.
I won’t give away details of the book, but believe me it was worth the investment of the price of the book and I’d recommend it to anyone in small business, or thinking of starting a small business.
To your success!
