The Next Business Book You Must Read

Instant Systems takes the business owner through the 9 steps necessary to systemize ANY business. Each step is methodically explained and follows a logical sequence. I have put the ideas to use in my own business and now I understand that I am destined to repeat every task until I write it down. With every system I create, I realize that I am that much closer to "fool-proofing" the way my business works. This book has been one of the most useful tools I have ever put to work in my business and I recommend it highly to all my friends and colleagues.

Great book about documenting processes from a small business coach

I highly recommend this book. It stresses the importance of systematizing your business so you, the owner, can treat it as an asset producing income streams rather than as a mere job. It will help you create systems that run every aspect of your business. This books has great content, but it comes across a bit as a marketing tool for the author's consulting business regarding small business coaching. If you are a small business owner, then this book will help you get your business out of your head onto paper. I love the following quote from the book: "Very few people ever make a fortune running their businesses, but a lot of people make a fortune selling them." You'll only be able to sell your business if you systematize it. The 4 key areas that can be systematized are: 1. Strategic Planning (budget, measure, evaluate, and take action) 2. Team Building (your people and education) 3. Delivery of Services or Distribution of Product 4. Using Technology (computers, machines, and equipment) I would have liked the book better if it had been organized by "chapters" rather than "parts." And I think "Part III" should have been broken into the following 4 chapters: Chapter 4: People and Education Chapter 5: Delivery and Distribution Chapter 6: Testing and Measuring Chapter 7: Systems and Technology All in all, a great little book to read and study. 5 stars!

Instant Systems

Instant Sytems will definitely help you fast track your business to success. From reading this book I learnt how to identify the areas in my business that needed systemizing. I also learnt how to develop, write and implement these effective systems into my business without causing massive panic for my team. If you don't want to be a slave to your business I highly recommend you read Instant Systems by Bradley J Sugars.
