Don't run your business like an amateur. Instead, try this: 1. Clarify your values: -What do we do? -What are our expectations? -Why do we serve? 2.Retain top talent: -Create a culture that invites high performers who are aligned with business values -Hire fast -Fire faster 3. Do the boring things well: -Create SOPs for your core processes -Eliminate the waste or extras -Extra time can be spent making the client experience 5-star Most people get this all wrong. They make it all about cool offices, free coffee, unlimited vacations. Wrong. Growth is about building a meaningful and intentional business with a small team that doesn’t keep you awake at night.  Go build that intentional muscle.

Bad hiring decisions do more than just hurt the performance of your business. They lower productivity, damage team morale, and hurt the business’s finances. #smallbusinesscoaching #businesscoaching #businesscoaches #smallbusinesscoach #businesscoach #smallbusinessadvice #businessowners #businesstips #hiringdecisions #teambuilding #teammorale

Just a few thoughts after this work week... Scaling a business is essential for achieving organizational goals and driving growth. However, it’s crucial to ensure that this process doesn’t turn into merely offloading work onto others. The goal should be to foster genuine collaboration and respect among partners and team members. When scaling, remember to: Respect your partners/team members: Value their contributions and ensure that tasks are distributed fairly. Do it correctly: Implement scalable systems and processes that support sustainable growth. Align actions with words: Consistency in practice and communication is key to maintaining trust and efficiency. By focusing on these principles, we can build strong, scalable businesses that thrive on mutual respect and effective collaboration. Stop expecting others to do all the work for you! #business #partners #worktogether #doitright

Let's dive into why Process is crucial for your business! 🛠️ Think of the Process Component of your business as the heartbeat that keeps everything running smoothly and consistently. Without well-defined processes, your team is left to guess and improvise, which can lead to inefficiencies, mistakes, and ultimately, higher costs. 👎 Picture this: By documenting your processes, you cut down the time needed to train new employees, reduce costly errors, and make sure that work continues seamlessly, even if a key team member is absent. This kind of efficiency directly translates into savings—both in time and money. #Processes #RunningOnEOS

I work with business owners and teams in all different industries, but I find there are two types of companies. Those that are great at leveraging people, and those that the owner and management can't get out of their own way. Which one do you think will succeed the most?
