The ONLY responsibility you have as a business owner
|
Strip away all the complexity, all the tactics, all the guru advice. Your only real job as a business owner is this: Identify bottlenecks and provide solutions to them. That's it. That's the entire game. The Three SolutionsEvery bottleneck in your business has exactly three possible solutions:
In the past, the ratio was clear: 90% delegate, 10% automate or eliminate. But here's what most business owners don't realize: that ratio has completely flipped. Today, it should be closer to 60-70% automate and 30% delegate. In the years to come it will be 95% automate and 5% delegate. Yet most people are still operating with the old playbook. The Real Cost of Old ThinkingFor our AI tool review site, we have automations that:
In the old model, this would require someone working 40-60 hours per week. Today? The person overseeing this spends less than 15 hours a week on it. That's getting 40+ hours of output from 15 hours of input. The Paradigm ShiftStop asking "should I automate this?" Start asking "what parts of this can't be automated?" Flip the default assumption. Old thinking: "This process is manual by default, maybe I can automate parts of it." New thinking: "This process should be automated by default, I'll only keep the parts that genuinely need human judgment." The Uncomfortable TruthIf you're still defaulting to "I need to hire someone" every time you hit a constraint, you're building a business model from 2019. You'll be competing against businesses that can move 3x faster with 1/3rd the team. That's not a fun position to be in. Your Action StepThis week, write down your top 3 bottlenecks. For each one, honestly assess: The hours you save? Because that's your only real job as a business owner. Identify bottlenecks. Everything else is just noise. Talk soon, Mitch P.S.
