TSS 265 - The True Cost of Not Systemising
With the internet changing peopleâs ideas about entrepreneurship over the years, millions saw opportunities in starting their own businessâmost notably in the small business sector. How many of them pulled through? And in between the height of their business and the brink of closing down, do they ever get to measure the âshoulda-woulda-couldasâ towards becoming better businessmen? Starting a business is one thing. Managing it is another.Â
But management doesnât mean you look after every part of the business yourself. We have process-organising and systemisation for that. Most business owners know that not systemising is costly but just havenât given it the importance it so deserved. So what's the true cost of the failure or point-blank refusal to systemise? Thatâs what weâll talk about in our first episode of the SYSTEMology - Create Time, Reduce Errors And Scale Your Profits series, with our guest, the author himself, David Jenyns.
