We all know the importance of creating business systems. If we want to hire new staff, replace our own role or even sell our businesses one day, then we need a number of systems in place for a smooth and profitable transition.
Having a humanised (or simple) system is the key to saving you not only time but money! They are easy to follow and produce great results all whilst providing a smooth user experience. Their allure is that they can be understood and performed by pretty much anyone.
Some benefits of this are:
- You can hire for attitude, not just experience, reducing salary costs
- Staff handover periods are decreased, meaning you can shave at least a week off of new employee training
- Other members of the team can cover holidays, saving you time and resources training a temp
- You have the option to franchise, as your systems are already documented
- You can outsource with little to no effort
When building a simple system into your everyday life, it’s essential to work backward and start with the end in mind. For example, if you would like to be at your desk at 09:30 am then work backward in 30 (or even) 15-minute increments.
09:30 – at my desk
09:15 – clear away breakfast & make a coffee
09:00 – eat breakfast
08:30 – make breakfast
07:30 – shower and get dressed
06:30 – workout
06:15 – check my diary
06:00 – wake up
