Did you know that small business owners work an average of 50-52 hours per week?
Plus, 20% of business owners are working seven days per week!
You didn't start your business so that it could consume your life. But if it did, you're not alone!
If you are finding yourself working longer and longer hours, putting out more and more fires and not seeing much reward for all of that effort, then it might be time to start evaluating the way you are working.
When a chef sets out to create a masterpiece, he (or she) creates a recipe.
The recipe lists all the ingredients required and all the steps that need to be followed in order to produce this delicious dish.
He can hand that recipe to another chef, and she can produce the exact same masterpiece!
On the other hand, if that recipe is never written down, then every time the chef wants this dish, he either has to create it himself - or - he has to present, telling the other chef what to do every step of the way.
The recipe is the defined system for how this dish is made and the principle is exactly the same for every single service you offer, product you produce and operational task you need done in your business!
We want to you to get your life back!
If you are currently well and truly entrenched in the day-to-day running of your business, if you are constantly having to help team members do their jobs, or you are always running around putting out fires, then you need business systems.
Good business systems enable efficiency and growth. They enable your business to run without you, but still produce the exact results that you want - meeting your standards! They make a business more streamlined and productive, and they result in a happier and healthier work environment. By letting systems do the work for you, you free up your time to work on your business, improving your strategy and assessing your efficiency. Ultimately, good systems are what make your business sustainable and profitable!
We have a Systems Development package that is designed to help you define these systems and to document them in the form of an operating manual as painlessly as possible. We help you to reduce waste, reduce friction and achieve a higher level of efficiency, profitability and general happiness. Systems are the key to scaling a business sustainably and we ensure that you create the best possible systems for your business.
Book a meeting with us today to discuss the System Development options available to you, and how our different service levels (Sustain, Grow and Thrive) work. You can read more about all of our advisory packages, here.
