Product Description:
In this first new and totally revised edition of the over two million copy bestseller, The E-Myth, Michael Gerber dispels the myths surrounding starting your own business and shows how commonplace assumptions can get in the way of running a business. Next, he walks you through the steps in the life of a business -- from entrepreneurial infancy through adolescent growing pains to the mature entrepreneurial perspective: the guiding light of all businesses that succeed -- and shows how to apply the lessons of franchising to any business, whether it is a franchise or not. Finally, Gerber draws the vital, often overlooked distinction between working on your business and working in your business. After you have read The E-Myth Revisited, you will truly be able to grow your business in a predictable and productive way.

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Business or Romance?
This book reads more like a romance novel than a business book. The author has some good ideas, but nothing new or earth shattering. The big put off for me is how he "interacts" with Sarah who owns a pie making business. Starring into each others eyes and her 15 minute description of lying in bed as a child dreaming about wild horses, which I can't find any connection to business. This would be a much shorter book, and better, if the filler was removed and just business basics were left.

Rating:  - Build your business on a sane foundation
I found this book to be a great read. Having been involved in starting a business and many of the heart aches that have come along, this book address many issues that everyone is likely to come across in most business.
For everyone that believes that it is important to keep a personal educational library, this is one of books that has the potential to create a Paradigm Shift in the way to conduct things within your business. Such things include: overall organization, policy, strategy, automation, ... Read More
Rating: - Great Book
This book is a must reading for anyone going into business for them selves. I found out i am not crazy just a man with a vision.
Rating:  - In the land of fools, Gerb is Genius
As others have said, this book is just one long commercial for Gerber's own business... and it worked, apparently. The capstone class for my major included this book as one of the required texts; the entire semester was spent listening to Gerber blow his own horn with Sarah the pie baker at her side... at least, that's what I heard. After listening to a few hours worth of this fraud (dare I say con-man?) and his obnoxious, annoying way of speaking about his even more annoying (generic, bland, unfounded) "insights" ... Read More
Rating: - Great for the Small Business Owner
My brother recommended this book to me. I was sceptical at first, however after getting into it there are some really good "nuggets" of information here. The story line with the example small biz owner was OK for me, but for others it may not like it. I did get some great insight and food for thought here. Has made me really rethink how my small business runs. Am planning on using many of the ideas to make my business better. Highly recommend.
