Better systems means more profit.
More profit means more time.
And I mean time for the things you actually care about!
(Like your family, fur babies, and future vacations.)
Because when your systems are smooth, everything is better.
Plus, the culture and environment you are creating with the above choices and how that impacts your team, their buy-in, morale, and thus your results.
Where these elements are connected and work together smoothly, they can make you efficient and effective – allowing you to be exceptionally profitable and serve your clients well.
(And yes, accounting & finance should be on that list too, of course – but that's not really my wheelhouse other than tracking certain metrics as KPIs.)
Most people are interested in doing the thing they're good at, not in systems just for the sake of systems.
If it's not immediately easier, faster, or clearly better – learning something new slows them down and feels arduous.
If you're not giving your team adequate training and support for your systems, then you're not getting the leverage or ROI you ought to be seeing.
And that's assuming they're using the system at all – it's common for individual contributors to keep their own records, which leads to gaps in information, poor communication, and missed opportunities.
Then you've got legacy knowledge walking out the door regularly too.
I don't want that for you.
If you're unsure about the answer to that, I invite you to book a Business & Systems Analysis with me.
Step 1 is to figure out what's working, what's not, and what the gaps might be costing you.
Together we can create clarity on what area or aspect of your operations needs the most attention right now – and if it really is a 'right now' kind of problem to solve.
