Is the back end of your business a hot mess?

Or are you OPTIMIZING SYSTEMS for sustainable growth

Diana Lidstone, marketing & business growth strategist, shares her story about how she went from being an overwhelmed business owner and parent to being an overjoyed, profitable business leader!

Her tips include:

  • How to set your non-negotiables.
  • How, as a business owner who wants to reclaim time and run an efficient business, you need systems, automation and a support team.
  • 8 suggested ‘systems’ for building sustainable growth.

Here’s what she means – A system contains:

Processes – the what: The step-by-step sequence of activities. This might be an SOP or a checklist.

Tools – the where: The specific software, apps or products used. These might include an email software such as MailerLite.

People – the who: The individuals or roles accountable for each step of the process. This might include a bookkeeper or a virtual assistant.

Strategies the how & why: The tactics, tips or techniques you use to achieve the target outcome. This might be how all these systems work together to achieve your definition of success.

Diana shares her recommendations for 4 essential systems you need to keep your business running like a well-oiled machine plus 4 others you might consider … all depending on your specific business!
