What I Learned About Managing and Growing Small Businesses

Years of interacting with small business owners
brought me to some simple but significant conclusions.
I watched the same mistakes being made over
and over again. I saw seemingly popular companies
close their doors for the last time. And, I observed
other companies skyrocket for no apparent reason.
What I learned…is that the strategies
for success were not unique to one industry, company, or business owner.
Success was determined by the use of predictable, repeatable, simple actions.
But, not just any actions--the right actions.
The great news, and the reason I felt it necessary to complete this book (and offer it as a free
download), is that once small business owners learned what they could do with their companies,
they began writing a completely different story for themselves. Gone was the “pain” of
small business ownership, and in its place was the “pleasure.” No longer was it a question of
“will I succeed?” but “how much success will I have?” I’ve watched desperate business
owners turn back into excited entrepreneurs when they found out what their small business
could easily and repeatedly accomplish.
Ultimately, these strategies morphed into the focal point for our company.
They were the driving force, the culmination of everything I had dreamed
of doing for the small business owner and their employees. For years I’ve
developed and refined these strategies so they would provide the most and
best value for the small business owner.
