We are very pleased to share part one of our interview with Philip Beyer, Entrepreneur, Author, and Coach.
Philip Beyer is a proud husband and father who is very involved in his community. His wife, kids, and daughter in law all take part in the businesses and this helps to keep him happy and grounded in what matters most. Having the people he cares about and trusts also helps to keep away the business chaos that Philip feels is one of the biggest hurdles of modern business.
Philip Beyer hasn't always been a system driven, organized person. He started out, in his words, as a mess. He was even called out by one of his customers about the level of disorganization in his business. After reading the book E-Myth by Michael Gerber, Philip really got into processes and systems.
Philip also reflects on some of the business choices in his past, both positive and negative. His software company was doing great and he had the opportunity to sell Beyer Printing back in 2008-2009. At the time, he decided he would just run both, after all, they were both doing really well. Then the market crashed, and Beyer Printing took a big hit and it took years of hard work to recover.
