The frustrating reality of running a business is that it often doesn’t just require one person to get all the parts working together. It requires help from another individual or individuals who are best at what they do in order for things to run smoothly and without frustration—especially when shit gets messy!
This episode is the first of our new podcast series called “Building a scalable business that doesn’t involve you”. Here, we talk about:
- the basics of effective work management;
- identify & work with processes – and why doing so is important; and
- the difference between theoretical improvements, and making things actually work better.
Watch to the end of the episode for an awesome surprise from Justin for our Site Shed listeners!
