Could your business run without you for two weeks?

For many small business owners, the honest answer is no. The business may be growing, serving customers, and producing revenue — but if every decision, approval, customer issue, people problem, process, or financial question still runs through the owner, the business is still owner-dependent.

In this episode, Steve talks about the hidden cost of building a business on the back of the owner and why the real issue is often not a people problem, a time problem, or a discipline problem. It is usually a systems problem.

You’ll learn the six core systems every small business owner needs in order to reduce owner-dependence and create more breathing room:

• Vision
• Mission
• Values
• People
• Operations
• Finance

Steve also introduces the “two-week test” — a simple way to see whether your business can operate without your constant involvement.

If you are a small business owner doing $250K–$2MM in revenue and you feel like the bottleneck in your company, this episode will help you identify where your business may need stronger systems.
