Get a Grip on Your Business

Traction

Sarah Schumacher

A must read for any business owner trying to scale and systematize a business. If you’re hitting a plateau or trying to figure out staffing, systems/processes and goal setting, you need to read and implement this book. It’s highly recommended for a reason.

Note: the order of implementation is different than the order of the book. Read it all the way through to get the gist, then go back and implement, referring to the list in the last chapter.

Though dry, and impressively corporate-sounding at times, this book can give you a simple framework on what to focus on as a business owner.

The Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) framework that is presented by the author promises to turn your complex and probably chaotic internal structure into a well-oiled machine where regular meetings and 90-day sprints are the norm.

There are many checkups and list-filling components that can sound a bit boring. Also, the ever-repeating theme of how amazing it is to have regular meetings. Yet, overall, this book offers a great way to organize your business regardless of the size.

The best thing about Traction is the way the author teaches you to streamline your operation processes, and processes in general, while simultaneously never losing sight of your long-term goal.

There are no magic formulas involved. There is no secrecy or promise for world domination – though he shares how his clients reached hard-to-believe figures of growth. The EOS framework presented in the book explains the most important aspects a business owner should consider doing to establish a strong presence in the market.

Key takeaway?

Things are usually remarkably simple around running a business. You create a product and you reach out to people who might like it while making sure that you are actually making money. It gets complicated when we forget our core values, goals, and when we start to pursue new shiny markets. That’s why the author mentions multiple times the importance of defining the core processes of your business and creating clear guides for everyone in the organization to follow.
