As you grow your business,
you eventually should be
delegating the day-to-day operations
and taking a more strategic or managerial role.
Often we don’t realize
how involved we are in our businesses.
Paul Meades,
managing director of
Meades & Company,
suggests*
“Look at your organizational structure
in a chart.
If you don’t have one,
imagine one.
Think of each business function or process
having a box on that chart
– e.g., sales, customer service,
fulfillment, production.
How many of the boxes on the chart
are you regularly involved in?
Think about how you can get out
of those boxes you don’t want
or need to be in
– by outsourcing, delegating
or recruiting.”
Allow your business to grow
by removing the bottleneck – you.
