This week, Shawn Busse talks about why the business-advice books we’ve all read often fall flat. Shawn says it’s because much of what they suggest is predicated on a traditional model of a business that makes widgets. As a result, that advice may work fine if you are a manufacturer, but it’s far less likely to help if your product or service is more customized. That may seem obvious but the thinking Shawn describes remains deeply embedded in the small business mindset. One example: the implementation of highly regimented processes. It can be great for some businesses, stifling for others. (You can also read “Rethinking Your Value Model,” an article Shawn wrote on this topic.)
