 Cheesy writing style but with some good conceptsAug 24, 2010
This book is considered by many to be one of the must reads for small businesses. It tries to drive home the point that a business that will provide the owner some freedom to live outside of the business must have some systems in place to accomplish this. I agree with the need to provide consistent service and the need to have rules in place to provide freedom. I do not like the writing style that is condescending as he looks down on us lowly business owners from the heights of his noble mountain of knowledge.
 An MBA on entrepreneurship for the previously ignorantAug 21, 2010
An MBA in a few hours for those of us creatives who never learned the HOW of doing business. A wonderful format told through the transformational experiences of people's struggles in being business owner entrepreneurs. Valuable look at what it means to be an entreprenuer and HOW to make your business make money. Don't agree with all nor does it all work for all of us but much of the information is interesting and can be helpful in other contexts.

This book is striking from the beginning because it was like a refreshing breeze on a hot and humid summer day. In an age where many businesses are chaotic, without vision, and without direction this book reminds us of the power, and wealth-building potential, of engineering, uniformity, and simplicity. While the book is targeted to small business many of the biggest corporations can definitely benefit from its wisdom. Some of the worlds' most famous franchises are evidence the utility of an engineered approach to business. In my opinion this should be required reading, and mastery of concept, for any executive.
Awesome book-came quick!Aug 20, 2010
I ordered The E-Myth Revisited, and first off, it's an amazing book! I'm so glad I got it. Secondly, it came so fast! I would definitely use this seller again. =)
Stop thinking about it!Aug 16, 2010
Buy the book or it could cost you your lifestyle. Your brain is the only thing stopping you from success or should I say the lack of information it needs.
