Book Lounge - The E-Myth Revisited by Michael E. Gerber with guest Marcus Garrett

Today in the Book Lounge, Tom & Karin discuss the book The E-Myth Revisited with special guest Marcus Garrett. Each week Book Insights creator and author of The 50 Classics Series Tom Butler-Bowdon and Memo’d Program Manager Karin Richey invite you to join their fun and casual conversation about the book of the week. Hear what they love it about, what they don’t, how they rate it, and how it can advance your work and life. You’ll learn why it was selected to be part of the curated list of Book Insights, and what’s new with the book or the author currently. This week, Tom and Karin offer you insight on: *Author Michael Gerber's tough love approach to entrepreneurship and why most small businesses fail. *How both Marcus and Karin got swept up into MLM sales types jobs and how the dream of unlimited potential can get in the way of the logistics necessary to make it happen. *How Marcus Garrett handles seeing himself as a "technician" and even sees his own successful business as "in infancy" stages in some ways, and what he is doing about it. Show Notes: Meet Marcus Garrett: Marcus co-founded an award-winning personal finance business dedicated to helping working professionals make money, save money, and get out of debt--reaching over 2 million downloads--before selling his stake in 2020. Today, his brand and business, The Marcus Garrett, LLC., helps employees and entrepreneurs like you reach financial independence by monetizing their online brands as he has repeatedly done over the last decade.  https://www.themarcusgarrett.com/ https://www.instagram.com/TheMarcusGarrett/ https://twitter.com/TheMarcusGarret https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNPNmvnU4JTHyPMHXMu7itQ What is the difference between Book Insights episodes and Book Lounge episodes? Book Insights are formal, structured summary, analysis and exploration of a bestselling nonfiction book. Each episode is read by a professional voice actor and will introduce a new title selected specifically for its value to your work and life.  Book Lounge episodes are casual discussions about the book, the author, and anything else that comes along through the course of conversation. It’s more of a broad chat about how the book relates to current, everyday life. Should I listen to both the Book Insight and the Book Lounge episode on the same book? Sure! Each episode works fine as a standalone piece, so no requirement to listen to both or to listen in any particular order, but we definitely recommend (and think you’ll enjoy!) both. Think of it like reading a book and liking it so much you want to chat about it on the porch with a friend. That is the vibe at the Book Lounge. Like what you hear?
