If you know me, you know I strongly believe that business systems = owner freedom.
That’s why it made sense to get today’s guest David Jenyns on the show.
David is the author of SYSTEMology: Create Time, Reduce Errors and Scale Your Profits with Proven Business Systems. It’s literally a system for building systems.
I took this opportunity to ask David for his perspective on systemizing a blue-collar business in a predictable, repeatable way. We talk about the stages of business systemization (and how to know which one you’re in), how to prioritize which systems to build first and how to involve your team in the systemization of your business.
This conversation offers a great, high-level perspective on systemizing a contracting business.
