Steven Ramberg Jeff Lerner Review
Meet Steven Ramberg. He’s only a month into ENTRE but for the past 5 years he’s been looking at how he can create an awesome life. He could never find the right fit until he found the level of coaching inside of ENTRE for him to create consistency to reach his goals. He excited to keep learning and training.
Welcome to another episode of Millionaire Secrets!
Today we’re joined by Sir Marco Robinson who has a pretty incredible story to tell.
Looking at him now, it seems almost unbelievable to hear about his past. We talked about his hardships growing up in the North of England. He came from a dysfunctional family that moved around a lot. To say his early life was unstable is an understatement.
To make things more difficult, he was a small-framed boy with a shock of bright orange hair. This only made him stand out more and he became a target for bullies.
But you know what they say…
What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger!
Sir Marco tells his story in such a way that it’s impossible not to feel sorry for him. But he’s found a way to turn his hardships to his advantage.
The strength he exhibits comes from a place of knowing just how hard things can be. Although he’s excelled professionally, that journey has been a difficult one too.
Sir Marco recalls his first job selling timeshares. It’s hard to imagine that the award-winning salesman, philanthropist, and best-selling author (among other things) is the same young man he describes in this episode.
His journey has been completely transformational and it’s an inspiration to anyone who’s experienced hardships.
At this point in his life, there’s nothing he can’t do. But “A Jack of All Trades” isn’t quite the right title. Because everything he does, he does it incredibly well!
You could call him “A Master of All Trades”!
Make sure to check out the full episode to see what Sir Marco could teach you!

SYSTEMology: Create time, reduce errors and scale your profits with proven business systems Paperback – November 18, 2020
by David Jenyns (Author), Michael E. Gerber (Foreword)
4.6 out of 5 stars
A step-by-step method that helps owners run their companies.
Do you feel as if your business operates as an adult daycare facility? Are you always repeating yourself in an attempt to fix mistakes and to keep things in order? What if you were able to build a company that is self-governing?
You've pondered it for a while - now is the time to turn this dream a possibility!
If you're like a lot of experienced entrepreneurs, you've tried and failed to organize your business. In reality, your business's shiny facade isn't as efficient as it appears from the outside. It's inefficient, chaotic and dependent on key people.
Systemstology solves this issue by providing an effective, step-by step business systemisation framework that is made to ensure that even the busiest of business owners can implement it. Based on more than 20 years of experience in business and real-world case studies, David Jenyns details the path to complete reliability for business.
In this book, you'll find:
The reason why most business owners don't have a system to manage their businesses
How to begin and what system must be developed first
Business owners are generally the least likely to document their systems
How to model your team's best members is the secret to accelerating your systems.
What's the reason you shouldn't have (and should not try) to structure your system like McDonalds
The best method to unlock the potential of innovation and strategies to increase your creativity.
Simple methods to encourage your team members to comply with your rules - even those difficult ones
How do you make improving processes a regular aspect of the routine of your team
Why companies that are systems-oriented always have higher multiples and are sold for the most money
The truth is that organizing your business doesn't need to be a time-consuming or daunting. It's just one click away from having everything you require. Systemology has been a success for many entrepreneurs around the world and is able to work for you, too.

I somehow managed to "hack the system" and get the book early. :)
And because of that, I was able to finish the book already and write this review.
My final analysis? .. Even the first 100 pages of this book – if applied – will radically improve your business!
The book is extremely practical, with actual examples for how to go about improving your business systems (and we all have systems, some of them are just really poor).
The most important takeaways for me were:
- Nailing the "Critical Client Flow" (CCF) for ONE customer avatar and ONE primary product/service.
- The erroneous thought the the business owner is the only one who can create systems (this was liberating!)
- The power of having a "systems champion" on your team, who they are, and what they can do for your business
- How systemizing your business can be a phased process, especially with a clear plan to do so (this book is it!)
- How to actually go about documenting your business systems (the author shares some seriously awesome shortcuts in the book)
I could go on... but those are some of the biggest takeaways for me.
And hey, it doesn't hurt that the author (David) is a seriously standup guy. He's extremely caring, very detail oriented (he hasn't left out anything you need to succeed in this systems journey!), and he's someone who isn't just sharing what he knows from theory, he has a life of experience to back up what he says (and he shares it in the pages of this book).
Enjoy!

I picked up both the e-book and Audible version of SYSTEMology® when it launched. Why? I consult with business owners who seek to address challenges they have that are limiting their ability to grow, generate profits and create a capitalized asset they can transfer to their family, employees or sell to a new owner in the future.
I am not a business broker, but I've seen a number of firms where the owner intended to sell their business someday and retire. That happens far less often than you'd think. And, even when it does, it sells for far less value than most owners expect. Dave Jenyns has articulated one of the clearest prescriptions for addressing why so many owners work longer than they like, harder than they want and for less than they deserve.
The key issue Dave's book addresses rather well is why most owners can't walk away from their business and have it continue to be a viable and profitable venture without them. Most become slaves to the very vehicle, the business, they assumed would be their ticket to financial freedom and a comfortable retirement.
I've followed Dave Jenyns for some time through his podcast and blog. I've found his experience, success and clarity about how to 'bullet-proof' your business so it can operate independently of the founder / owner to be nothing short of amazing. In this book, he lays out a clear path to follow to gain control of the primary and secondary processes that make a business operate profitably. Once that's done, he reveals how to ensure that the team members who must use them to operate efficiently and effectively will 'buy into' and use them. Finally, he deals with the 'head trash' of both the owners and staff about systems that can sabotage any attempt to adopt and maintain a systems based business. Once that's accomplished, the owner is no longer tied up "fire-fighting" and can focus on more strategic concerns. At that point, the owner may find him or herself . . . maybe for the first time ever, to be truly working ON the business rather than IN it. Good read. Well written. Highly recommend.
This is how you build a business you can sell
Reviewed in the United States on August 19, 2020
On p. 23 there is a diagram that shows the stages a business goes through, from being in survival mode to stationary to scaleable to saleable. Having worked for other companies and started a few of my own, I can attest to the fact that those that sell for big numbers (I was employee #22 at a company that sold for $1.8B) and those that can't be sold at all (others I worked for and some I started) have one big difference between them—those that sell are systematized, well-oiled machines you could plug almost anyone into and they would keep on chugging, and those that don't sell are the founder or a small group of individuals running around getting things done that only a group of top experts can get done.
If you only implement a fraction of the tips in this book you can move your business from being one you are constantly rushing to fix and work in so that it can survive, to one that runs itself and you work on to refine and improve.

When David Jenyns contacted me and asked if I would read and review his book, I was knee-deep in books to read already. Another author referred me to him, so I agreed to review his book, but I couldn’t promise when. With that understanding, I purchased his book and put it in the stack.
I did get to reading SYSTEMology, and I am pleased that I did. To begin with, I am a system and process kind of guy. I believe in documenting what we are doing and working to improve it over time. I use checklists and process outlines in my work every day.
One difficulty is that my experience with documenting systems is based on my career in large public corporations. The resources at my disposal were significant. I have struggled a bit trying to curb my enthusiasm for documenting systems to match the small to mid-sized private companies that comprise my customer base these past two decades. Enter SYSTEMology. Jenyns has successfully translated the big public company world to the private business world for us. And, of course, he has systematized the systemization.
Enthusiastic and Generous
If I were to criticize Jenyns’ writing, it would be to suggest that his enthusiasm borders on overselling his process and his book. A significant trend in business is to move away from selling and advertising to being found. An unintended consequence of that trend is the acceleration of “content marketing.” I could easily mistake this book for one big selling process through content marketing.
Except for one saving grace—Jenyns is very generous with his process, knowledge, and material. He has made this as much of a DIY project as anyone could hope to have. The resources on the SYSTEMology website will be enormously helpful. I referred several clients to this book since they have expressed a desire to scale their businesses while also stepping away from day-to-day involvement. I will also suggest this book to the startup businesses I advise. If an owner starts a business with systems thinking as a value and goal, life will be much easier.
Layout and Style
The book is predominantly organized around the SYSTEMology seven-step process: Define, Assign, Extract, Organise, Integrate, Scale, and Optimise., I enjoyed reading SYSTEMology because Jenyns starts each chapter with a summary of what we’ll be learning. Also, at the start of the chapter is a myth statement such as “Myth: You will need to create hundreds of systems to systemize a business.” At the end of each chapter is a case study of how a client implemented that particular process step. There are also links to online systems resources and a summary of the steps in the process. I spent some time going through the website content and found it to be useful and accessible. It will prove valuable to those who implement the seven-step process.
Jenyns writes in a straight forward clear style. It is clear to me that he understands small businesses and the constraints on them. Besides being an excellent process, Jenyns makes it practical and down to earth.
The Promise
The subtitle of this book is, “Create Time, Reduce Errors, and Scale Your Profits with Proven Business Systems.” It will be several months before I will have firsthand knowledge of clients implementing SYSTEMology. However, I believe that when properly implemented, the promise of the subtitle will be kept. Most exciting for the business owners I work with will be the time recovered to work on the business instead of working full-time in the business.
Recommendation
I recommend this book to any business leader who aspires to a more strategic role and desires to scale their company. I believe SYSTEMology should be required reading for any startup company. This book will be well worth the read, and your business will thrive when you install system thinking as a significant piece of your culture.

A system for creating systems that save you loads of time and money
Reviewed in the United States on August 19, 2020
SYSTEMology is a step-by-step guide to implement systems in your business. As the author says, it's a "system for creating systems." in fact, what I love the most about this book is that it is structured in a systematic way. We are taken through the 7 key steps to implement systems in our business so that it runs smoothly and efficiently.
I especially loved that each chapter is preceded by a quick overview, so we know what to expect. In addition, each chapter ends with a handy list of action steps, so we can implement.
The case studies included throughout the book make it much easier to visualize how the process works.
This book is the business solution to grow by working on our business instead of working in our business.

Wow! 48 five star reviews so far. As an author myself I can only wish for that. But it is impossible not to give this excellent book five stars, and I decided to before I even looked at other reviews.
I've known Dave for years (he contributed to one of my first books) and have watched his growth with interest, not to mention envy. This latest book represents the culmination of his experience (so far), and is not only highly informative but also a great read.
He starts with a gripping tale of how his foresight paid off in a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that he was able to take, and goes on to explain how he did (and you can) set things up to create lasting value in your business, come what may.
So many business creators find themselves in the position that he describes, it should be required reading for anyone concerned about their future and that of their business. You have to get it, and you won't regret it!
Small steps forward in a consistent direction lead to BIG change in a short period of time.

David Jenyns has put together the perfect work for a small business owner to be able to bring order out of chaos and to be able to scale efficiently and effectively.

SYSTEMology Solves Your 5 Biggest Problems
Reviewed in the United States on August 18, 2020
SYSTEMology Solves Your 5 Biggest Problems
1. RISK. When the business is dependent on you to be there to run, what if something happens to you? SYSTEMology safeguards the company against this risk by empowering others to make things happen in your absence.
2. OVERWHELM. SYSTEMology gives you clarity and a very user-friendly step-by-step process to make systemizing your operation “mentally manageable” and actionable, so you can actually make it happen and enjoy the immense benefits systemizing has to offer.
3. CAPTIVITY. SYSTEMology gives you the freedom to be a true business owner, where the business works FOR you and without you, instead of you being held captive in the common ‘self-employed’ role where you still have the full-time obligation.
4. CONTROL. SYSTEMology gives you control over all the vital functions of your business, instead of everyone operating by memory, by chance or doing things their own way. Everyone knows what to do and how to do it, so things get done in an efficient, organized and most importantly consistent manner with everyone following best practices.
5. PROFIT. Coming from a Quality Assurance background, I learned a long time ago that systemization is the true key to minimizing unnecessary scrap, losses and costs and maximizing output, efficiency and profits.
“Success by Design” is a very simple way to summarize SYSTEMology and Dave has done a masterful job of making systemization straightforward and very user-friendly to implement. Get the book, get the software, free yourself from the problems listed above and enjoy business ownership the way you’ve wanted to all along.

Building repeatable systems within your business drives up profit. Great Book
Reviewed in the United States on August 18, 2020
I highly recommend reading the book SYSTEMology. David details the practical processes for a step-by-step system for systemizing a business.
I am a serial entrepreneur and these processes are what I have implemented within all of my businesses. Removing key person dependency allows a business to function at a completely different level. To put it into a practical state that is easy to understand, imagine any of your team members going on a 2-week vacation and everything runs totally smooth. Your customers will love your business when you implement the key steps outlined in the book.
The seventh stage was my favorite chapter to read. Creating a dashboard that gives you true visibility into your business. Identify the problems, make system improvements, and then monitoring the results. I loved the statement David wrote, "When the team becomes unconsciously competent in this skill, it unlocks the door to complete business reliability."
I will be working on implementing more of David's systems within my 2 businesses as we focusing on scaling them up to the next level.
I highly recommend this book!
Plan to Help You Create the Systems Your Business Needs
Reviewed in the United States on November 8, 2020
Jenyns begins by identifying the four stages of business systemization. He then brings you through his seven-step process that is "designed to identify and create the critical systems within your business."
Each step is its own chapter and begins with a chapter summary highlighting what the chapter includes. The author discusses common myths about systemization, includes charts and diagrams to help you as you go through the process, and provides case studies showing examples of success using these principles. There are also links to additional online resources.
As a small business owner, I know developing systems is important. It's something I've struggled with since I started. As Jenyns says towards the end of SYSTEMology, most people that wish to learn SYSTEMology don't need to be convinced of the benefits of systemizing their business, they need a plan to make it happen. That's where I am, and what drew me to request to review this book. I can't say I've read a ton of books like this in the past, but SYSTEMology has inspired me to make this a focus for my business in 2021. I look forward to putting Jenyns plan to work to see how it moves my business forward.
SYSTEMology by David Jenyns is a must have resource for business owners.
I received a digital copy from the author. This review contains my honest opinions, which I have not been compensated for in any way.

As David mentions in his book SYSTEMology, “imagine building a business where you attract the right team members to you and repel those who aren’t a good fit...” if you put into place EXACTLY what he recommends, you’ll achieve this type of business.
His foolproof approach to systemizing your business is all-encompassing, and includes easy-to-follow, appropriate, and compassionate techniques to get your entire team, from all departments, on board. He understands how each person on your team may react to “yet another method” to implement in your company, and gives you exact methodologies to combat this and even garner excitement around the process.
If you find you need to improve your culture, he also teaches how to improve your hiring, onboarding, and management systems.
This is a must-read for all business owners. I WILL be recommending it from now on to all of my clients... and implementing his SYSTEMology into my own company.

I really enjoyed this book! I’m not even the core demographic for it, but I found the insights in SYSTEMology to be useful and interesting to learn about. So 5 stars for me! Seriously, I have no complaints.
It’s written by an Australian author, so if you’re an American you might find some of the spelling a bit off, but other than that you’d hardly notice. Everything is made to be basic and applicable to all business types, wherever they are. And he makes a lot of great points throughout – I marked so many pages and quotes! It's full of good advice and inspiration.
I have already recommended this to a couple of business owners I know and I will keep recommending it to more! Plus department leaders, people in leadership, and people in training roles, too. If none of these things apply to you, and you’re still reading this, then consider buying it for yourself to try and systemize other areas of your life! Or maybe gift it to a business owner or entrepreneur you know.
Add structure to your business
Reviewed in the United States on July 24, 2021
David Jenyns reached out to me and asked me to review his new book, SYSTEMology: Create time, reduce errors and scale your profits with proven business systems. With the word system in the title, how could I refuse? I was eager to take a look at what Jenyns put on paper. I was very pleased. Not only did the book align with what I was learning in other books, but it also offered some new approaches.
Using SYSTEMology, you can examine your business systems and break them down into repeatable processes. The overall goal is to identify efficiencies, which results in increased savings in time and effort. You can then get more time back in your life to pursue other initiatives. This is one of the reasons I am so interested in productivity, systems, and improved processes.
Jenyns included different tools to work through the different stages. These tools proved to be quite beneficial to me and my team. During a recent department retreat, we examined some of the recommended strategies against some of our library processes. I am confident that all departments can use these lessons and tools to improve operations.
I especially liked the recommendations outlined in the Extract stage of the book. The focus is to create step-by-step documentation. Jenyns provided concrete strategies for developing the necessary documentation. It is a process that I will be using with my team as I move forward.
Jenyns wrote SYSTEMology in a very conversational tone and shared ample examples to make his point. He also included an appendix with a couple of examples of documented processes. I found this to be quite beneficial as I work to create documentation for our team.
All in all, I enjoyed reading SYSTEMology and took away a number of strategies that I will be weaving into our systems and processes. I have already recommended the book to my boss and a co-worker. I believe organizations at varying levels could benefit from what Jenyns has shared. If you are looking to raise the level of your department, company, or organization, you should read SYSTEMology.
The missing link from The E-Myth and Traction
Reviewed in the United States on November 29, 2021
I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. Having implemented both the E-Myth and Traction in my business, I was left with the feeling that something was missing from these blueprints. Michael Gerber tried to fill the gap with his E-Myth Mastery sequel, and Gino Wickman describes "systematizing" in EOS, but neither comes close to the full treatment Jenyns applies. The beauty of this book is that the author explains both the concepts and the mindsets in depth, without over-complicating the topic. He even describes the four stages of systematization a business can achieve and how to transition between these. What makes this book so useful from my prospective is that I can just hand the book to my clients who can now fill the gap using their teams, or by hiring a SYSTEMologist to execute it for them.

This book will help you turn your work into systems that can make things easier, faster, repeatable, fun, profitable, and better.
Every problem in our businesses becomes a system opportunity. Everything that's important needs a system, and everything is important.
This book is going to be a best-seller guaranteed. I feel so many people have waited for this information, especially those of us who have read and love the e-myth.
I will share this book with all of my colleagues who run businesses. They will be far better off by implementing the strategies laid out in the book. Read this book to help map your plan, and get out there and systemize your business and ultimately your life.

I was asked to review this book. I found it quite helpful for small business owners like me who have so many balls in the air that it's sometimes hard to choose what to focus on. You might appreciate it, too.
My top three takeaways:
1. Focus on Critical Client Flow, not all the minutia of everything you do.
2. Delegate documentation to your top performers in each area.
3. Send yourself and your key employees on vacation.
