The Business Behind the Hustle: How to Run What You Start

Getting the customer is one commitment. Running the business creates the work that follows.

In The Business Behind the Hustle, Terrence L Pounds examines what his dealerships, repair shops, retail stores and other ventures required after opening day. He describes the strain of a fifty-fifty partnership, the relationship between repairs and collections, the people who helped him step away from daily store work, and the demands of managing seven locations. Original storefront photographs and business records accompany the account.

At its center is an Operator principle: a business is a system of commitments. A six-part framework connects customer promises, delivery, people, money, attention and oversight. Four practical review pages help readers examine their own operations and choose their next action.

For owners who know how to get something started, this book asks what it takes to keep carrying out what they promised.
