In my experience, it is seldom that a small business owner thinks about creating value in their business. In general they are too busy doing what they do, putting out fires, fighting with cash flow, managing employees, and trying to have a quality of life after hours.
Making matters even more difficult, small business owners, in general ,do not have a strong accounting background and have a tough time reading financial statements. Concepts like gross profit percentage, cost accounting, performance measurement,and ratio analysis are complex and time consuming to put in place.
