Summary
From Mike Michalowicz， the author of PROFIT FIRST， CLOCKWORK， and THE PUMPKIN PLAN， comes the ultimate diagnostic tool for every entrepreneur。
The biggest problem facing entrepreneurs is that they don't know what their biggest problem is。 If you find yourself trapped between stagnating sales， staff turnover， and unhappy customers， what do you do first？ Every problem seems urgent -- but there's no way to address all of them at once。 The usual result: a business that continues to go in endless circles putting out urgent fires or prioritizing the wrong things。
Fortunately， Mike Michalowicz has a simple system to help you eradicate these frustrations and get your business moving forward， fast。 Mike himself has lived through the struggles and self-doubt of a stagnating business。 He figured out that every business has a hierarchy of needs， and if you can understand where you are in that hierarchy， you can identify what needs immediate attention。 Simply fix that one thing next， and your business will naturally and effortlessly level-up。
Over the past decade， Mike has developed an ardent following for his funny， honest， and actionable insights told through the stories of real entrepreneurs。 Now Fix This Next offers a simple， unique， and wildly powerful business compass that has already helped hundreds of companies get to the next level， and will do the same for you。 Immediately。

Interesting way to think about limiting the scope of your improvement effortsWhen thinking about your business it can sometimes become overwhelming where to put your limited time， attention and focus。 Fix This Next is one framework to try and help with that dilemma。 It might be better to return to as you identify the area and then read the different sections。 If you are working on Sales the chapters on Legacy will seem of little use。 As with most business books， a good idea is then drawn out to Interesting way to think about limiting the scope of your improvement effortsWhen thinking about your business it can sometimes become overwhelming where to put your limited time， attention and focus。 Fix This Next is one framework to try and help with that dilemma。 It might be better to return to as you identify the area and then read the different sections。 If you are working on Sales the chapters on Legacy will seem of little use。 As with most business books， a good idea is then drawn out to fill a book。 Most of the time the concept can be grasped by chapter 2 and then the rest is exploratory exposition。 The same applies here。 。。。more

Excellent Great book to analyze your business and for learning how to identify problems that need fixing。 It’s great to see a business book that goes past the profit stage into giving back and creating a legacy。

An extremely helpful framework for prioritizing issues within your business。 I know I will return to this book again and again when I feel overwhelmed with all the fires I need to put out every week。

Книга для малого бизнеса。 Хорошая постановка вопроса - как понять， на чем сфокусироваться в данный момент。 Предложенное разбиение на стадии развития бизнеса кажется выдуманным из головы。 Какие-то полезные мысли при прочтении все же возникли， хоть с книгой， напрямую и не связаны

Great book， methodical， practical。 I read the book quickly and then I will just go back and actually implement it。 This is what a good business book should be like。

This is a great overview of the stages of building a business--his version of Maslow's hierarchy of needs for businesses。 In one way， it's a restatement of what many others have said in that the individual elements aren't new。 But the big insight of the book is to stack rank them， so that you can know to fix this problem before fixing that problem。 For example， if you don't have enough sales then fix that before you get better internal efficiency。 Or， maybe less obvious， if you don't have strong This is a great overview of the stages of building a business--his version of Maslow's hierarchy of needs for businesses。 In one way， it's a restatement of what many others have said in that the individual elements aren't new。 But the big insight of the book is to stack rank them， so that you can know to fix this problem before fixing that problem。 For example， if you don't have enough sales then fix that before you get better internal efficiency。 Or， maybe less obvious， if you don't have strong profit margins， fix that before you invest in more staff （because then you'll just slide into doing even more low profit activity）。Good read for business owners and those who consult to business owners。 。。。more

Bueno， pero hay mucho rellenoLibro muy interesante con una metodología que ayuda a ponerle un norte a la gestión de nuestra empresa en tiempos turbulentos。 La parte negativa es que con la mitad de extensión conseguiría decir lo mismo

I definitely recommend reading this vs。 Listening to it on Audible so you can reference the actual action plan easier。 It's a simple framework to get clear on what to focus on in your business。I got less out of it than I did out of Mike's other books but that's partly because I already have a business assessment of my own I created and use for myself and my clients and this is something I do fairly regularly so it was less actionable for me。If you don't have a framework， this is definitely one w I definitely recommend reading this vs。 Listening to it on Audible so you can reference the actual action plan easier。 It's a simple framework to get clear on what to focus on in your business。I got less out of it than I did out of Mike's other books but that's partly because I already have a business assessment of my own I created and use for myself and my clients and this is something I do fairly regularly so it was less actionable for me。If you don't have a framework， this is definitely one worth trying out！ It doesn't take long and you'll learn quickly if you can get something out of it or not。 。。。more

I always love a good framework and Mike delivers again。 His books， this one included， are some of the best actionable books for entrepreneurs out there。 The BHN helps provide business owners with clarity and focus， two things we all drastically need。 Not sure what problem to fix next？ Not sure what will propel your business to the next level？ Read this book。

I came to this book as a fan of Mike Michalowicz。 His earlier book "Profit First" was excellent and it has already paid dividends in my business。 In business， you face constant problems。 That causes stress on several levels including the feeling that you don't know which problem to fix。 Do you need to solve sales？ What about systems？ Or starting a pursuit for meaning？ In this short， tightly reasoned book， Mike Michalowicz takes you through a step by step methodology on when to fix business probl I came to this book as a fan of Mike Michalowicz。 His earlier book "Profit First" was excellent and it has already paid dividends in my business。 In business， you face constant problems。 That causes stress on several levels including the feeling that you don't know which problem to fix。 Do you need to solve sales？ What about systems？ Or starting a pursuit for meaning？ In this short， tightly reasoned book， Mike Michalowicz takes you through a step by step methodology on when to fix business problems。 Some of the problems （e。g。 "vision"） are not currently on my priority list and I found this book reassuring。 That problem can be solved later after some other business problems can be solved。I read this book as an audiobook and may read it again in Kindle format to more fully explore the ideas。 。。。more

The premise of Mike’s books are always stellar！ This was no exception。 I felt like it might have been a bit too long; like I could have gotten just as much out of it without all the filler。 The concepts Mike introduces are so simple and obvious and somehow they’re still mind-blowing and earth-shattering。 I’m was pumped and ready to go long before the book ended！ Probably good to read it all the way through anyway， so I did。

Fix this next is hierarchical progression of all the stages you need to identify within your business。 Consider this to be your grassroots information that gives you a starting point for your immediate business need。 sales->profit-> efficiency-> impact->legacy。 Most small business are in the one of these phases and unable to identify the immediate critical phase。 Don't get this book wrong， it is no way a systems book trying to help you grow。 It will help you identify the next need and then you m Fix this next is hierarchical progression of all the stages you need to identify within your business。 Consider this to be your grassroots information that gives you a starting point for your immediate business need。 sales->profit-> efficiency-> impact->legacy。 Most small business are in the one of these phases and unable to identify the immediate critical phase。 Don't get this book wrong， it is no way a systems book trying to help you grow。 It will help you identify the next need and then you may dig deep， to improve that phase。This book leaves the reader wanted in terms of execution and that will pull you into Mike's ecosystem of his other services。 If you are unable to figure how to solve then his coaching can help you with his coaching/execution part of business。 His services provide the accountability that this book lacks。（that might be his business plan）。 And if you feel like this is not specific enough for your industry he will come up with a industry specific version （ inference from his previous work）。 This book does not tell you how to improve sales or improve profit or efficiency。 That has to be found in other books。 You may also find these in Mike's other books。 In other words this is an index of his work as an author。 FTN gives you the focus- "the one thing"。 I would definitely recommend reading this but don't stop there。 Reading further and implementing some of the specific work that other great authors have to offer will benefit you immensely。I don't expect Mike to breakdown every step but this book lacks the references where you may find the skills to acquire this。 Some go to references would have been nice but here is my list - sales （ Ultimate sales machine -Chet Holmes; Sales Management Simplified - Mike Weinberg） Profit （ Simple Numbers - Greg Crabtree; Profit First - Mike Michalowicz） Efficiency （ EOS / Traction -Gino Wickman; Scaling up - Verne Harnish; Topgrading- Bradford Smart） Impact （What you do is who you are - Ben Horowitz） Legacy （ green giants -Freya Williams）。 。。。more

Want to leave a legacy through your business？ READ THIS NOW！This was the first Mike Michalowicz book that I’ve read。 I’ve heard good things about his books and was encouraged to read this before his other books。 Boy， am I glad I did。I currently run a business and am getting ready to launch a second one。 This book， and the system contained in it， have given me so much clarity on what I need to focus on for each individual business。 It’s easy to get lost in the weeds when you’re in the business。 T Want to leave a legacy through your business？ READ THIS NOW！This was the first Mike Michalowicz book that I’ve read。 I’ve heard good things about his books and was encouraged to read this before his other books。 Boy， am I glad I did。I currently run a business and am getting ready to launch a second one。 This book， and the system contained in it， have given me so much clarity on what I need to focus on for each individual business。 It’s easy to get lost in the weeds when you’re in the business。 This helps clear things up and gets you focused on what you need to FIX NEXT in your business。I highly recommend this book to any entrepreneur or business owner， regardless of how old they are or how old the businesses are！ 。。。more
