The Baker vs. the Carpet Cleaner- Is there a difference?

lessons-for-cleaning-business-owners-from-a-bakerJosh Kaufman from The Personal MBA has written a parable about a baker but I think the story is pertinent to any and all entrepreneurs including carpet cleaners. What I find particularly interesting is that Josh has asked for feedback on what the parable means. Within hours of posting he had over 50 responses and there were vastly different interpretations.

You can read all the different opinions by clicking on the following link but why not help your fellow cleaners by adding your comments to this SFS blog post in the section below.  Let’s see how we can apply the “Persistent Baker” to our industry.
