Publisher's Summary

In 2006, while working in a full-time job, James Schramko wrote this in a notebook:

My goals: Create automated income so that I am independently wealthy and enjoy my life passionately.

Within three years, he’d built his own business and achieved those goals. At this point he set about helping his coaching clients do the same. Leveraging his knowledge and experience, they were able to make more money while reducing their work hours significantly.

This freed them up to spend more time living.

It’s easy to think working less and making more is something available only to a blessed few. James has proven over and over again this is not the case. All you require is:

  • An open mind
  • The ability to focus on what’s important
  • An understanding of business models
  • A willingness to challenge your assumptions

Work Less, Make More will break down all the barriers standing between you and the above. It will teach you how to effectively leverage yourself, your team, and your business via:

  • Increasing your personal effectiveness
  • Planning and goal setting
  • Learning focus and the power of 64:4
  • Building a team
  • Creating an offer that converts
  • Leveraging the profit formula to boost cash flow
  • Understanding the importance of customer lifetime value
  • Choosing the right business mode
  • Removing compromise from your life

This audiobook is for you if you are:

  • A business owner (big or small)
  • Currently in a job with a hard ceiling on how much you can earn
  • Overworked and underpaid
  • Stressed out and missing out on precious time with family and friends.

If you want to build a business that gives you financial peace of mind while allowing you to enjoy life now, not later...Work Less, Make More will get you on your way. It will help ensure the business you're building will work for you, not the other way around.

Critic Reviews

"Work Less, Make More is a dense delivery of solid systems and sane advice. It's not 80/20, it's 80/20 squared. Every few pages, James punches you in the face with an instantly actionable hack." (Perry Marshall, author of 80/20 Sales & Marketing, Ultimate Guide to Google AdWords, and Evolution 2.0)

brilliant step by step plan

loved this book very easy to understand the in-depth methods and formulas the author uses to create a successful on-line re-occurring business. the narrator speaks clear and slow so listening to this book at times 1.5 or more gets you through the book very fast.

Listen to this guy

I have been in James’s SuperFastBusiness community for only 2 months after binge listening to his podcast and I have learned more in this time than with any other business/marketing mentor I have followed.

His spin on things has opened up a whole new world for me and I can truly see my future being aligned with the philosophy of Work Less and Make More!

Listen to this guy.

Thanks for your teachings James.

A must for any overworked business owner!

Full of practical tips to help you enjoy your life more by running a profitable business that supports your passions.
Be sure to not listen if you’re driving, listen when you can take notes because you DO NOT want to miss any of these pieces of gold!
James has a wealth of knowledge he shares in this book. He annunciates well but I did listen to the book at 1.2x to help my brain stay on track!
I’m extremely ready to increase my EHR and excited what it will be in 3 months time!

So many lessons in here, I'll listen over and over

I've recently listened to dozens of James Schramko's podcast and wondered how much overlap there would be with a book that's a few years old in an industry that moves so fast.

Turns out, James' advice is consistent with the content from his podcast without ever being repetitive. And the lessons are timeless. After listening once, I've made several changes to my online training business and reckon I only caught 1% of it on my first listen.

Great book to lift your business’ income

Short and impactful book, written by one of Australia’s top car salesmen who changed his life by creating businesses that gave him time and flexibility to do things such as surf everyday. Key takeaway was to have recurring income products not once off sales.
