{ "item_title" : "Owner", "item_author" : [" Lisa Malinousky "], "item_description" : "Most founders start a business for freedom. Instead, they build something else entirely: a company that depends on them for every decision, every problem, and every result. Revenue grows. Complexity multiplies. And the founder becomes the system holding everything together. In OWNER, entrepreneur and real estate investor Lisa Malinousky shares the hard-earned lessons she and her husband Jamie learned when they discovered that owning millions in real estate still didn't produce the one thing they needed most-reliable cash flow. That realization forced them to rethink how their business was designed and to rebuild the company from the ground up. What they discovered changed everything. The difference between a business that grows-and one that produces freedom-is architecture. Through ten practical lessons drawn from real business transformation, OWNER shows founders how to move beyond hustle and install the systems, financial clarity, and leadership structure that make performance repeatable. Because ownership is not about working harder. It's about building a business that works without you.ABOUT THE AUTHORLisa Malinousky is an entrepreneur, real estate investor, and business strategist focused on helping founders build companies that produce both cash flow and freedom. Early in her real estate career, Lisa and her husband Jamie discovered that owning valuable assets did not guarantee financial stability. Despite controlling millions in real estate, their company still struggled to produce reliable cash flow. That realization forced them to rethink how their business was designed. They rebuilt the company from the ground up, transforming a growing multifamily portfolio across British Columbia into anenterprise that generated growth far beyond what they had imagined. Through that process, Lisa discovered something most founders eventually confront: Growth alone does not create freedom. Without the right structure, successful companies often become increasingly dependent on the founder. Her work now focuses on helping entrepreneurs transition from operator to owner by installing the financial frameworks, decision systems, and organizational architecture that make performance repeatable. Through her writing and advisory work, Lisa helps founders build companies that work-not because the founder is holding everything together, but because the structure makes them work.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers2.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/1/06/775/322/1067753222_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "17.99", "online_price" : "17.99", "our_price" : "17.99", "club_price" : "17.99", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
