  • For those of you who have read the E Myth by Michael Gerber, and thought I need to do that for my business, I can do that for my business and then didn't get around to it or it got to hard......"E-Myth is successful because it addresses how people think, not what people do. Try to change what people do without changing how people think (as most experts attempt to do), and what people will do after all the effort and expense is to go right back to what they did. Because what they did is the direct product of how they think. The entire E-Myth Business Development Process is an exercise in re-inventing the way a small business owner or manager thinks about everything he or she does. The improvement of the way the business works is not only immediate, but profound." .......aCE now has a direct link with a Certified E Myth Consultant who can, and will, help you on your journey. For contact details, please contact us.
