3 Types of Support Your Business Needs
Many entrepreneurs start their business with the goal of creating a life with more freedom, flexibility, and opportunity. Then, once they see the impact their business is making and the lifestyle it’s creating for them, they can’t help but want more. If you’re at this place in your entrepreneurial journey where you want to scale sustainably, read on to learn about the 3 types of support your business needs in order to go the distance.
#1: Systems
If your goal is to scale your business sustainably over time, you must have support in your systems. Your systems will make everything you do on a daily basis run smoother. Whether it’s prepping for a discovery call, onboarding a new client, or setting up a new project in your task management system, you need strong systems set up in your business. These systems will help you work more efficiently, effectively, and will support evergreen scalability.
#2: Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs)
Having solid SOPs is the key to ensuring that you’re consistently delivering high quality services. No matter what the task is, whether it’s writing an email sequence, managing an inbox, or posting on social media, you need to have an SOP. Break down each and every step of the process so that it’s clear what needs to be done to deliver the service with the best possible quality and timeliness to your client.
#3: Superstars
Lastly, if you want to scale your business sustainably, you must have support in your superstars… aka, your team! Yes, you are smart enough to do all the tasks in your business. You are capable of delivering all of the services. However, doing it all alone is NOT sustainable. Therefore, you need support via a team that can help you deliver those high quality services and grow in a way that supports your time, space, and mental health. Get clear on the services and tasks that truly light you up. Then, look for superstars that shine in the areas that you don’t and that you need extra support in.
If you want to scale sustainably, grow a business that stands the test of time, and achieve the success you desire, then you have to get support in these three areas.
