1145 - The Service Business Owner's Capacity Trap
00:33 - You’ve built something that works, but now success feels like a trap. That’s the hidden challenge of scaling a service business.
01:22 - Start by finding out what your key people actually do each week. It’s the first step in a task audit that reveals hidden inefficiencies.
02:28 - Look at every task and ask what would happen if it disappeared. That’s how you uncover bottlenecks in business and wasted effort.
03:39 - Before hiring, check whether the problem is really a lack of staff or a broken process. Service business automation often fixes both.
04:49 - Most capacity issues aren’t caused by people, but by manual, repetitive work that slows operational efficiency.
05:52 - Growth doesn’t come from adding more; it comes from removing what no longer serves you. That’s how to scale a service business effectively.
07:20 - What feels like a limit is often a signal to simplify, refine, and scale the business through smarter systems and how to scale business operations.
