SMALL BUSINESSES CAN THINK BIG... HERE’S HOW Are you struggling to find marketing ideas for your small business? Does your business plan consist of a few scribbles on the back of a napkin? Does the thought of learning “online marketing” scare you? Do you find traditional business books dull, or uninspiring? Have you read business biographies of the poster boys (Richard Branson, Bill Gates, Warren Buffett, Alan Sugar, Elon Musk, Steve Jobs etc), only to feel a sense of overwhelm, and a complete disconnect between what they achieved, and where you are right now? Do you want to grow your small business, without having to learn complex marketing strategies, and without being told to simply “work harder than everyone else”? If so, then “Big Ideas... for Small Businesses” could be the “lightbulb moment” you’ve been waiting for... Former civil servant John Lamerton has run more than 60 small businesses since 2000, making millions of pounds, and thousands of mistakes along the way. This book is a collection of the lessons and successes that he uses to coach and mentor hundreds of small business owners, teaching them to think bigger, work less, and design their business around the lifestyle they want. SOME OF THE “BIG IDEAS” THAT YOU WILL DISCOVER:
Why the “Dragons” hate lifestyle businesses, and why you should love them.
How almost anyone could become a millionaire in their lifetime, given just £200 a month.
Why John blames Richard Branson for his early failures
How to get clarity on your business strategy, and bring that into your daily routine.
How to sell a dozen eggs for over £500
The ONE thing that truly transformed John’s business
How to find, hire, (and fire!) your first employee.
Why every Luke Skywalker needs a Yoda.
EXACTLY how he made over £100k from ONE marketing campaign.
The five magic ingredients for success in almost any given field.
JOHN LAMERTON is a lazy entrepreneur and investor. He balances running an ambitious lifestyle business with raising two young children. A former “hustler”, he now earns more money “working” 20 to 25 hours a week than he used to pulling all nighters and “grinding” for 100+ hours per week. He now mentors fellow ambitious lifestyle business owners, teaching them how to design their business around their lifestyle.©2017 John Lamerton (P)2018 W. F.

An Awesome Audiobook , in just four days of downloading the book John the Author & Narrator has got into my head (in a good way). I am on the third listen through and I am still picking up on ideas and pearls of wisdom that I had missed on the first and second times of listening to the book. I use the word listen but the experience has been much more engaging than than that . Whilst the book is simply structured it is packed with useful information that is just too good to ignore. I have been inspired to set my 90 day goals and as well as mapping them out I have found the time to take the small steps that will lead me to achieving them . Well worth the money and I expect the value I will get from this book will keep coming, because I am inspired by the author to take the action required to make it happen.

Managed to get this listened to in 2 days, listening in between working my day job. It has given me the motivation to not only get my arse in gear and take my "ambitious lifestyle business" to the next level, but to put some plans in place and start taking action to leave my day job and focus on my business full time. Highly recommend it and Johns narration is a breath of fresh air compared to some of them on here. John goes in depth about everything he covers in this book, and when he hits you with some business jargon, he explains it very well so your not left confused by what he said.

Absolutely Brilliant!

I don’t really know where to start with this review, I never leave reviews but I really wanted to on this one as Big Idea’s and Routine Machine has pretty much changed my life.

First thing I would say is I’ve listen to a lot of books on audible about Routine, Habits, Productivity, High Performance, Early Birds, etc but nothing has been as good as these books, I would even say they don’t even come close. What I like about these books are the homework tasks about not putting the book down and doing nothing about it and just moving on to the next book . I listen to John on audible as I was training for the London marathon at the time so when I couldn’t be bothered going for a run this book gave me that little bit extra as I was looking forward to what John was going to say next. When I liked an idea, I would get out my phone and type it in my notes, this wasn’t easy trying to carry on running whilst trying to look where I’m going and add a note.

When I first listen to John’s audible I was working as employed as a mortgage and protection broker, I was working long hours but was falling out of love with the job. I wanted to love the job I do again because if you love the job you do you never work a day in your life as they say. The biggest problem I had was I wanted to work for myself so I could make my own rules and this book gave me the confidence I needed and put routines in place so I could get the work done routinely and have more time to spend with my family. I used this book to prepare myself from going from employed to self-employed and now that I stared this adventure it’s help me plan out how to do stuff the right way from the start.

I’m really grateful that John wrote these books, this is just my story but these books could help a lot of people.

I’m looking forward to what the future hold for me. Wish me luck!

Thanks John.

When I started listening to this book, I was very sceptical, having listened to a few others which are normally very vague. This book, however is different. It is in plain (and very frank) English, read by a down to earth businessman who is candid about the mistakes he made and why he believes he made them. It gives a simple recipe for success which I will be following.

Big Idea....Just buy this book
