What is it like doing everything by yourself in your business?
In some ways, it’s fabulous!
You’re your own boss – if you don’t want to do something a certain way, you change it. If you see a new opportunity that lines up with your goals, you jump on it! And when you make a profit, you’re the one who keeps it.
But I know it can be frustrating too.
When you’re an entrepreneur without good systems to help you, you get lost in the chaos. And you believe it’s the only way to do business.
Well, it’s not.
There are tools out there to help you!
It doesn’t matter if you’re just starting out, don’t have a lot of money to invest, or you worry that it will take a long time to figure out how to use them.
These tools are affordable, versatile and user-friendly so they fit any type of business and you’ll have plenty of online resources to master them.
Hey, some of you are already experienced YouTubers – you’ve got this!
In today’s podcast, I explain why you need each system below to run an efficient business and how to select the right one for you.
- Task Management – project management software serves as your daily dashboard, helps you track your progress, and maybe one day, outsource some of your work
- Accounting – even something as simple as a Google spreadsheet works as long as you’re covering all the critical areas
- Automation – implementing this system allowed me to launch my second business! It works with your other systems to reduce the amount of tedious tasks you do each week.
Imagine being able to pull up information quickly, check in on how your projects are going, and see exactly what you need to spend more time on during the week.
That’s the beauty of using these systems – you’re not guessing or wasting precious time entering data. You’re now analyzing and strategizing!
