Summary
This will be the next installment in the series of E-Myth handbooks developed specifically for key industries. As with previous titles, The E-Myth Accountant will have distilled small business advice that specifically caters to this business segment. Although business owners know everything about their trade, very few know how to effectively run a business--the void that Michael Gerber looks to fill. In Gerber's signature easy-to-understand, easy-to-implement style, he will address specific aspects of the business such as money, people, management, and growth.
