Everyone who’s followed me at all knows that I love to talk about delegation. But before you can delegate anything, you need to have systems in place so your team members know what to do and how to do it. On this episode of The Sassy Strategist, I’m talking to Melissa Morris, a business operations strategist for small business owners. She helps service-based biz owners streamline client management systems so they can effectively scale their businesses.
The more you grow your business and bring on more clients, the more difficult it is to serve your clients well without systems in place. Many clients grow quickly, not being ready for that growth. They end up being reactive. Delegating work to team members is helpful, but it’s impossible to do well (and to set your team members up for success) without the right tools in place.
Listen in to our conversation to find out why you may find you don’t need to delegate just yet and the key questions to ask yourself as you hunt for that key timesuck. We also dive into how to overcome the need to be a people-pleaser and tips and strategies to put in place so you don’t feel like you’re at the mercy of your clients all the time.
