11 Ways to Recognize Processes Hiding in Plain Sight 👀

‍

Opportunities to manage more with less and take your business from chaos to exponential growth are hiding in plain sight all around you.

‍

You just don't see them because you are running around with your hair on fire. 🔥

‍

Take this as permission to take five minutes to sit down and look around.

‍

There are specific and critical core tasks happening in your company every day that are practically screaming at you to streamline and systematize them in an actually effective way. They are critical to the company and you've probably already tried to systematize them to some extent in the past. But now they just can't break through the noise of your everyday firefighting efforts.

‍

But streamlining those tasks is the only way out of the fire and into a future where your company can manage more doors with less stress.

‍

So, grab a notebook and write down the sets of tasks that:

1. Are repeated often
2. Are critical to your company’s growth, reputation, or customer experience
3. You want to happen the same way every time
4. Are a time suck or have lots of complicated steps
5. Have opportunities to improve in efficiency, automation, and the customer or team experience
6. You have no idea whether they are actually happening
7. You have no idea how well they are happening (if they are happening)
8. Only certain key employees know how to do them (ie. your company would be in dire straits if those employees left)
9. Are included in a big outdated process handbook which is never looked at by your employees
10. Make your or your team want to tear your hair out
11. Cause big issues if they are missed or forgotten

‍

The next step is to turn your greatest liabilities into your greatest assets. You don't need a bigger handbook. You don't need outdated checklists that require an excessive amount of data entry and have no automation capabilities.

‍

You need a repeatable, automated, fully-documented, data-driven, living and breathing ecosystem of processes that will support your company's growth and help you become proactive rather than reactive. That improves your customer experience, which reduces churn and increases organic growth, etc.

‍

That's how you will manage more with less and get a hold of that potential time savings, efficiency, and yes, profitability, hiding in plain sight.
