Recommendation

This practical workbook can help small-business owners improve their companies. The core of entrepreneur Mike Michalowicz’s advice is self-evident: If you pay yourself and the government first – in profit, salary and taxes – you have to run your business with what’s left. In his analysis, focusing on expenses before anything else and martyring your profits and salary to reinvest in growth creates a never-satisfied beast you eventually have to kill. Michalowicz hones his simple but uncommon message relentlessly: Put “profit first” and thrive.

Take-Aways

  • Change your thinking from “Sales - Expenses = Profits” to “Sales - Profit = Expenses.”
  • Do a few things well and strive for increased efficiency.
  • Resist the temptation to spend by allocating money to separate accounts.
