ADVICE

Design A Business That Runs Without You

  • Design your company so you can step away 30 days and return to find it stronger, not weaker.
  • Map seven core components (awareness, sales, marketing, onboarding, finance, collections, renewal) and build ~3 systems under each to reach ~21 documented systems.
ADVICE

Turn Tasks Into Delegatable SOPs Fast

  • Treat systems as repeatable step-by-step processes you can hand off and document in Loom/Notion so others execute as well or better.
  • Use Loom recordings then auto-generate SOPs (Loom AI) to avoid manual writing and speed delegation.
ADVICE

Choose Format Then Systemize The Workflow

  • Pick pen-first or camera-first and document a platform-specific workflow from idea to analysis, then assign standards and an owner.
  • Example: YouTube workflow with standards lets a new editor reach your quality in ~3 weeks.
