System builds

Different problems. Different systems.

Start with where work is getting stuck. The system comes after that — and these can work on their own or connect together as the business grows.

When it genuinely needs judgement, with the conversation attached

Customers get the same answer whether they email, text or use the website. Your staff only get involved when the question actually needs them.

Start with the problem, not the product.

Tell me where work is slowing down, getting repeated or getting lost. The right system usually becomes obvious from there.

Not sure which one?

That is the normal starting position. Most businesses do not know which system they need — they know which part of the week is costing them.

Working in HVAC, plumbing, roofing or another trade? There is a version of this written for home service businesses.

Tell me what is breaking.

Describe the part of the week that costs the most time or opportunities, and I'll work backwards to whether any of this is worth building.
