Publisher's 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 entrepreneurs have 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 fix first? Every issue seems urgent—but there's no way to address all of them at once. The result? A business that continues to go in endless circles putting out urgent fires and 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 countless distractions of entrepreneurship, and devoted years to finding a simple way to pinpoint exactly where to direct attention for rapid growth. 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.
Includes exclusive author commentary throughout the audiobook and a bonus author interview at the end of the program.

What the critics say
"As a fellow business author, I rarely read anything in my own genre—but I make an exception for every one of Mike's books. I always go away feeling educated, challenged, and fired up to make improvements in my business. (I'm still not going to wear a vest, though.)" (Chris Guillebeau, author of The Money Tree and Side Hustle)
"Mike is a genius." (Don Miller, author of Building a Story Brand)
"Similar to the human body, a business has specific needs for it to grow healthily. Fix This Next explains the make-up of your business and how to pinpoint where its health it compromised." (JJ Virgin, author of The Virgin Diet)

Very good!
Compared to Mikes other books I found this concept a little more difficult. And maybe I should have got it in print. It’s helpful but because we are all on different steps of the hierarchy there were lots of different examples. I feel like Mike could write a book on each different step and there would be tons to say. Excellent read but maybe not as specific and practical as his other books.

Great "book", so easy to listen to!
I have to be honest - I bought the hardcover version of this book several months ago, and I've only picked it up to dust it off and move it to a more conspicuous place! I decided to try Audible over Christmas holidays, and listen to this instead.
As a busy professional, listening took much less time than reading.
Mike has a way of presenting and summarizing key points that I've not found with other books, making it easier on my ADD brain. There are many fresh perspectives presented in this book.
Learn while you drive, exercise, etc - you won't regret buying this audiobook.
