Technician to Entrepreneur

Published: 01/08/2009

The E-Myth Insider

8 January 2009 Brought to you by E-Myth Worldwide

Dear E-Myth Reader,

The "E-Myth," or Entrepreneurial Myth, is defined as the fatal assumption that if you understand the technical work of a business, you understand a business that does that technical work.

  • A doctor understands how to run a medical practice
  • A graphic designer understands how to run a graphic design firm
  • A contractor understands how to run a contracting business

But most of us who are skilled Technicians are just that: Technicians. We are trained at caring for patients, designing logos, or building houses. When it comes to running a business, most of us just don’t have what it takes. We lack the knowledge and skills essential to running a successful business.

So what’s a Technician to do? What if you are the doctor, the graphic designer or the contractor? How do you create a successful business that still allows you to practice your craft?

In our blog, Technician to Entrepreneur we suggest that change starts with the way you think about yourself and your business. We invite you to read Technician to Entrepreneur and share your experiences with us.
