The E Myth Revisited by Michael E. Gerber – How to Avoid the Most Common Small Business Mistakes

Book Synopsis, Report, Review and Notes by Corey Chambers | VIDEO

Why do most real estate agents fail to thrive? This book for entrepreneurs explains why most small businesses don’t work, and what to do about it. The problem is best summed up by Gerber’s definition of the word:

E-Myth \ ‘e-,’mith\ n 1: the entrepreneurial myth: the myth that most people who start small businesses are entrepreneurs 2: the fatal assumption that an individual who understands the technical work of a business can successfully run a business that does that technical work

Voted #1 business book by Inc. 500 CEOs, this book dispels false beliefs about starting a business. Based on the experience of small business consultant and author, Michael’s succinct tome explains why technical expertise often gets in the way of business success.

Most entrepreneurs must make a tough decision, a choice between doing the technical work that one loves, or the entrepreneurial activities that one may love just as much. Doing both usually creates a Jack of all trades, and a master of none. In a competitive marketplace, mastering one is necessary to stay in business, compete and prosper.

Citing experiences of entrepreneurs during the 70s, 80s and 90s, this non-fiction business book, revised in 1995, exhorts people to develop powerful visions for their companies. Readers have reported results: freeing up several hours a day, significantly increasing sales, allowing business owners to take their first vacation in four years.

Michael E Gerber founded and ran the Michael Thomas Corporation in Carlsbad, California and across the United States of America.

One excellent example of a prospective reader is the real estate agent, who must study to obtain a license, gain local real estate knowledge, learn sales, marketing and agency. This is ideally three or four different positions filled by four or more team members. Add accounting, management, inside sales, outside sales, database and computer maintenance, human resources and other necessary positions, it is easy to see why most real estate agents fail. Most never attract more than 0-2 transactions per year. They find that they cannot quit their day jobs. Their entrepreneurial dreams are crushed because they do not have the expertise, specialization and efficiency that comes with focused, skilled labor.

Would you rather do the work, or would you rather run the business. Choose just one. Which one would you prefer to focus on. Which one would you prefer to delegate to someone else? What will create more success for the business? What will create more happiness for you?

The book focuses on the basic conflict between the entrepreneur’s technical side (the real estate agent) and the business side (the administrator/manager). One-man operations generally cannot grow successfully. For most entrepreneurs of all kinds, including real estate agents, substantial profits and great success become a possibility only after the entrepreneur finds a partner who is perfect to take over either the technical side or management side, then hires a complete staff to handle all of the critical positions with focus, dedication, maximum skill and efficiency.
