Small Business Coach, Chuck Boyce, discusses how Michael Gerber and the E-Myth Revolutionized Small Businesses

Wilmington, Del. – January 11, 2011 – Chuck Boyce, best-selling author and expert on coaching new and small businesses, recently published an article on his website, http://www.BreakingFreeBlog.com, titled “The E-Myth 25 Years Later.” Earlier this month in New York City, The National Academy of Best Selling Authors™ honored Chuck Boyce alongside Michael Gerber and other best-selling authors.  This event prompted Chuck to reflect on the impact that Michael Gerber’s most famous book, The E-Myth, has had on small businesses and entrepreneurs over the last 25 years.

Chuck Boyce wrote, “25 years ago, small business coach, author and visionary Michael Gerber began a revolution.  With his groundbreaking book, The E-Myth, he articulated the reason why the vast majority of small businesses fail.  Simply put, it’s because people become a business owner without first understanding what being an entrepreneur is really all about.”

“The problem, according to Gerber, is that someone like this is generally a technician, not an entrepreneur.  Yes, they know how to do what they do extremely well, whatever the skill may be – dentistry, home remodeling, car repair, graphic design, etc.  – but they probably don’t know how to translate that skill into business success.  As new business owners, these people immediately thrust themselves into a dozen different other roles and, in many cases, without any training or long-range thought about what those roles require.   They have to be CEOs, CFOs, bookkeepers, marketers, human resources managers, and so forth – all the support services they took for granted when they worked for a bigger company,” writes Chuck.
