E-Myth World Wide

I have been an unofficial evangelist for The E-Myth, by Michael Gerber, since 1993 when I read it the first time. My associate and I spent a year studying the material and holding each other accountable to applying the principles of The E-Myth.

Since then, I have given the book as a gift numerous times, recommended it to clients and told E-Myth stories in my workshops and speeches. If you have not read updated book, The E-Myth Revisited: Why Most Small Businesses Don't Work and What to Do About It then you might consider it.

If you are open to joining an E-Myth Study group, please let me know. I envision gathering in an office conference room, in Dallas, with a group of 8 to 12 business leaders who are studying and applying E- Myth principles. The first 4-6 weeks we will meet weekly, and then go to a monthly format for about 6 months or when ever.

By the way, I am participating in the E-Myth Insider Pilot program and will have some additional insight to offer you from my participation. I look forward to growing our business and increasing time for ourselves too.

Social Media Club of Dallas 

The Mission:  

In looking at what is most important to us, it would seem most appropriate to focus our efforts on the four areas of our core mission:

1. Expand Media Literacy
2. Share Lessons Learned Among Practitioners
3. Encourage Adoption of Industry Standards
4. Promote Ethical Practices through Discussion and Actions

From here, it is important to note that anyone in the advisory group (and any member of the community) may propose projects for the club to support. Over the next few weeks we will need to formalize the governance on how we choose which projects get our formal support, but for now we are going to keep it simple and ask for your help in making these first 4 projects, that support our 4 missions a success. You can stay up to date on them here on the blog or over on the Social Media Club Special Projects page on the wiki.
