Do you have systems in place for your business?  Today I want to talk about how you can start setting up systems for success! 

If you’re wondering what I’m even talking about, I see you. A few years ago, I didn’t even know what systems for my business were but once someone took the time to introduce me to them, I realized that I was actually already implementing systems into my business. I just didn’t know what they were called. And I’m willing to bet you are already familiar with systems for your business too. 

Systems are the unsung heroes of business (and life) sanity.

I know that might seem a little dramatic but when you can put a system in place for your business it allows you to have a seamless flow. Your business begins to work for you, rather than you working yourself into an emotional ball of stress that seems to be getting you nowhere. 

If you want to grow your business without losing your sanity, having a system in place is something that allows you to do that. I teach an intro to systems in my course, The Profit Plan that will help you know exactly where to start. Be sure to check that out HERE!

So let’s dive into what systems are and how they can positively impact your business. 

Any time you have a certain way of doing things, that in itself is a system. It’s just a matter of making your system the most streamlined, efficient, and effective it can be based on your business goals. 

When it comes to finding examples of business systems that help lessen the load and make your work run seamlessly, I can’t help but think of Chick-Fil-A

You know exactly what the food will taste like, how the employees will greet you, and how the ordering process will go. This is no accident. They are all trained on Chick-Fil-A’s system for a positive customer experience. And it works. Time and time again. 

To help you get started with building systems for your business and becoming more like Chick-Fil-A, follow these five simple steps. 

1. Identify the actions you take for your business on a regular basis.
2. Analyze what you’re currently working on and determine if it’s benefiting your bottom line. 
3. Create a plan of income-producing activities and a schedule to complete them. 
4. Execute your plan.
5. Always evaluate and improve your system.
