If you’re like a lot of the business owners we work with, you’ll be flat-out busy and from time to time you are going to struggle to make the changes you want to in your business because you just don’t have enough time.

Now I was talking with Mike & Tracy from Plumbworx and Tracy shared something that was absolutely golden.

She has been working hard to try and systemize her business and get it all running properly so she could employ someone to help her run the business.

She had this massive realization which was a blinding flash of the obvious, and it was this…

“Hey, I have been trying to systemize this business for three or four years but I haven’t gotten around to it yet because I don’t have the time”

She’s realized that she needs to get some help in the office so she can systemize it and then the business will run properly.

So business is a bit back to front sometimes, you always have to invest first before you get the results.

So, what have you been struggling to do in your business?

Have you been struggling to get your marketing up to scratch?

Or get on top of your numbers or build some pricing templates? 

Perhaps get your team meetings running well or do your performance appraisals.

Whatever it is that you are struggling to do, have you got enough help?

Have you got the right resources in your office and in your business to make it happen?

If you haven’t, well that’s where you need to look first so you can actually create the business that you want, build a lifestyle that you want, and just have more fun.
