Are you tired of spending your valuable time on mundane,
routine tasks? Do you want to streamline your business and
increase productivity? If so, it's time to consider
systematizing your business.
Effective systems can save you and your team both time,
money, and frustration. At the core of systematizing is the
basic rule of ‘systemize the routine - humanize the
exception’. This means that anything that can be systemized
should be, leaving only exceptions that require human
intervention. Always look at putting a system in place rather
than employing more people, because a system ensures
consistency regardless of the team member.

To help you get started, here are 5 basic steps to
systematization:
Flowchart your processes
This will give you a clear understanding of how everything fits
together
Document how it gets done
Get the team member who is currently doing the job to write
down every step in performing a task. This person then gets a
new person to do the task following the written down steps.
Once completed, start again with another person until you
have demonstrated that any person can do the task without
intervention.
Measure results using key performance indicators
Typically, these will be the top five measures to show system
performance. Get these from the person doing the job, such
as in sales where you could use the number of leads,
conversion rate, average £ sale, etc.
Allow the system to change/grow as your business
changes and grows
This will give you a clear understanding of how everything fits
together
Automate the process as much as possible
Incorporate AI technology to help monitor and improve the
process. By automating the system, you'll not only save time
and money, but also increase productivity and growth.

When determining where to start systemizing, ask yourself:
What are you doing on a regular basis that a lower-paid team
member could be doing if it were systemized? Systemize it,
hand it over to the lower-paid team member, and spend your
time on higher-level activities – remember the goal is to work
on your business. Is there anything you hate doing which
could be done by a lower-paid person if it were systemized?
Systemize it and hand it over.
By systematizing and automating your business, you'll not
only save time and money, but also increase productivity and
growth. Don't wait any longer to simplify your business and
enjoy the benefits of effective systems.
