Take 3 Hours Every Week ...

Michael Gerber, in his book “The E-Myth”, differentiates between working IN and ON your business.  For business growth and development you must allocate time every week to work ON your business.

The challenges are: how much time; and what to do in the time. 

If you are like most small business owners you work about 60 hours a week.  Take 3 hours each week … an investment of only 5%.   This then becomes 57 hours IN and 3 hours ON.  The real key is to allocate the same three hours every week.  This discipline will pay massive dividends over time.

To explain the difference between working IN and ON … the most potent “ON” is Business Planning … what it will: be like; look like; achieve; etc.

As a technician it is easy to see non-technical areas like marketing and financials as working ON.  In reality they are working IN … just a different IN to your technical training.

Other forms of “ON” are Systems Development and Monitoring the performance of KPIs to support you to make informed business decisions.

Start working ON your business by attending the Take 3 Business Workshop.  See the information below.
