Work the System : The Simple Mechanics of Making More and Working Less

A Simple Mindset Tweak Will Change Your Life.

It started with a midnight insight. After a fifteen-year nightmare of coping with his chaotic business, Sam Carpenter discovered and then developed a simple methodology that knocked his routine 80-hour workweek down to near-zero, while multiplying his net income by a factor of one hundred. That was in 1999. Now, for 2025, here's his best-selling business book in a completely updated post-COVID version, showing how you, too, can break free to build the business and life of your dreams . . . no matter the outside influences.

In Work the System, Carpenter reveals the profound insights and exact, uncomplicated, mechanical steps necessary to turn any struggling business around . . . or to add substantial bottom-line to one that is not struggling. Once you "get" this startling vision, success and serenity will come quickly. You will learn to

• make a simple perception adjustment that will change your life forever,
• see your world as a logical collection of linear systems that you can control,
• manage the systems that produce results in your business and your life,
• stop fire killing and become a fire-control specialist,
• maximize profit, create client loyalty, and develop enthusiastic employees,
• identify insidious "errors of omission,"
• maximize your biological and mechanical "prime time,"
• design the life you want--and then, in the real world, create it!

In the last five years, the socio/economic business world has been turned upside down, yet the very basics of business and life success have not changed. Whatever the outside world challenges, you can transform your businesses into a finely tuned machine that runs smoothly and profitably on autopilot. Make More. Work Less.
