My details and directory entries here say a bit about myself and my businesses. I just want to add that while I am keen on business success, and get paid for accounting and helping people make their businesses more successful, that is not why I am here.
Business can be a complex and lonely place. I was advised that when you're new (which means in the first two or three years) you don't accept much outside advice - even though it's often needed. In my naievety I thought I knew better - but I have learned the hard way it is too true.
I am here to help where I can - to throw in my opinions for what they're worth - and to hope that some businesses do somewhat better because of some help I've rendered and they've implemented.
I often quote from Michael Gerber (The E Myth Revisited - a must read and do). If I do nothing else here but help people discover and implement the simple approach to business he introduced in that book, I consider my time here well spent.

Hello People,
Just recently came across this website. There's so much content on this site, I am a little bit of overloaded. My personal goal or what precisely I am searching for with this community forum is to gain knowledge of and also to find new friends. I am wondering where do i need to start with this community forum. My apologies for my poor english, but I am french.
Hi there newbee
You haven't said what you're up to so the best place to start is probably to add a bit of information about your Kiwi (NZ) business in your profile. You can also look at the forums for topics you might find interesting.
