The Millionaire Maker's Guide to Creating a Cash Machine for Life

Your parents and school perhaps taught you how to get a job, this book will teach you real-life examples of how to build a business and start earning cash. Do not wait any longer, if you are like me in under two months I now have two cash machines bringing me money on a weekly basis. Thank you Loral and Sarah and I are forever grateful to be part of your community in the Big Table. I use this book as part of my coaching entrepreneurs how to start living their dream life.

If you already have a business, some of the book is a bit remedial because she is helping those start from scratch as well as those in business. But if you have a business it validates what is working and motivates you to try new things to take it to the next level. I own a brand strategy and graphic design firm which I was doing large proposals. I was insanely busy one month and dead the next. I have since structured my offerings into phases & packages which makes it much easier to get people in at an entry level purchase. Then clients can move to the next purchase which keeps the work load and cash flow steady. The book does a nice job of helping you forecast your sales, plan for the future and create a marketing plan to keep the cash coming in on a regular basis. She also has a lot of great free info on her website if you want to check it out before buying the book.

I never heard of Langemeier until a few weeks ago when my wife saw her on a panel of mostly investment people on CNBC. The other 4 panelists focused on living below your means (being frugal) and then being able to save and invest in stocks, stock mutual funds, or real estate. Langemeier answered an audience question and basically said, "forget about the negative aspects of being frugal and not spending money, instead start your own business and make enough money so that you can spend money".Out of curiosity, I picked up her book. I plan on starting my own business when I retire from my first job in a few years, so reading a book about starting businesses would not be a total waste.Langemeier's approach seems to be to recommend that people start up a business very quickly in an area they know something about.......to get their feet wet.....and then learn more about running the business as it matures.I can't really quarrel with her recommendations. She does discuss an issue I was already aware of.....do you want a business in which you must work at every day.......or do you want a business that does not require your 24x7 attention.....meaning you can expand the business easily.My only observation is that Langemeier focuses on sales dollars......with very little focus on profitability. We all know the saying that nothing happens until the cash register rings....but why pick a business with low profitability versus higher profitability potential? Maybe her approach is designed to motivate you to get into a business first...and as long as you don't lose money......you will quickly learn about the profitability measurement......so your next businesses have more profit potential.There is nothing new about her approaches. The principal value of her book would be to help motivate people to start their own businesses.

I checked this book out from the library numerous times over several years, racking up late-return fines every time before I decided I'd better just buy it. What I love about this book is: out of all the money and wealth-building books I've read, this was the only one that actually gives you a clear blueprint to building a profitable business, from how to come up with what business you want to start, to getting it up and running. Not only that, but it tells you how to get it done in 7 weeks! There's no reason anyone can't use what's in this book to build a profitable business, except for their personal mental barriers. It's a very practical and clearly written book, and I recommend it highly.

Very good book, great ideas!
