When starting a business, most entrepreneurs do everything, and that's fine because the business operations are limited and manageable. But when you scale up, the responsibilities and tasks increase too. If you don't get help, you will limit your success and end up overworked and frustrated.
A business leader like you should focus your time and effort on high-dollar-value tasks. Time-consuming and repetitive tasks that can be done by someone else must either be delegated or outsourced.
Today, I discuss how you, as a business owner, can save hundreds of hours of work by utilizing virtual assistants. If you are hesitant to outsource tasks for fear that they won't be done correctly, let me walk you through how to create SOPs (Standard Operating Procedures) and find reliable people who can do the work for you. Let's dive in!
“Oftentimes, business owners are not where they want to be because they're doing things they shouldn't be doing.” - Cody BartonIn This Episode:
- Limiting beliefs that many business owners have which hinder their ability to scale their business
- How to document your processes for easier delegation
- What I learned from hiring my first virtual assistant
- The proper way to delegate a task to someone else
- How to use the activity inventory sheet

When starting a small business, you usually do all the tasks. But if you want to grow, you need to get help. You must let go of repetitive tasks that consume most of your time. However, delegating is among the most challenging things for entrepreneurs and business owners. It can be overwhelming and scary, especially when you've never done it.
When I started hiring assistants, I didn't know how to give them feedback or tell them what they needed to do. But over the years, I learned that delegating tasks, particularly those you're not good at or don't enjoy doing, is good for your business.
In this episode, I share three areas you can delegate or outsource and what you can do to endorse the tasks correctly. After listening, you can be on your way to delegate tasks so you can dedicate your time to doing the things you enjoy the most.
“The thing that you think you have to do is probably one of the things that you can most definitely delegate or outsource.” - Cody BartonIn This Episode:
- Why it's better to delegate your bookkeeping instead of doing it yourself
- How to outsource your data management, CRM, and marketing campaigns properly
- Is it possible to delegate your weaknesses?
- Where to get virtual assistants who can help do the tasks you don't enjoy doing

Do you dread the idea of socializing or meeting with other people? Does the idea of selling scare you? If you said yes, you're probably an introvert like me. When people think of introverts, they think of someone shy or quiet. These are not the people you would normally expect to succeed in business.
After all, having a business means selling and networking with other people. However, being an introvert is not an obstacle. It can even be an advantage if you follow some strategies, which I will discuss today.
I also talk about how I complemented my introversion by identifying what I'm good at and not good at, then finding someone good at what I would rather not do.
To illustrate, I'm sharing how I met my business partner, Pace Morby, and what made him say yes to my partnership proposal. If you are an introverted entrepreneur, this episode is a must-listen!
In This Episode:
- The story behind my partnership with Pace Morby
- A common mistake new entrepreneurs make and what you can do instead
- The secret to approaching people who can help you that will make them want to work with you
- Why it's important to identify your strengths and weaknesses

Join me as I walk you through a proven delegation framework I learned from Cameron Herold and the three key things you must do to delegate effectively.

I’m an expert in managing people, processes, and maximizing productivity. But I don’t have a personality like Tony Robbins, Dean Graziozi, or a Pace Morby. I’m a behind the scenes introvert who just knows how to get shit done.
On Scale With Pros you’ll learn how to build a thriving business that serves your life – rather than having a life that serves your business.
At 17 I started building my first sales organization, that I eventually grew to $3m in annual revenue. My next business made me a millionaire at 25, and in 2023 my portfolio of companies will hit $39m.
I'm here to help you figure out what you’re doing now that’s not your job. I’ll guide you on finding and leading the right team for your business, utilizing effective systems, and managing your time efficiently, even if you are an introvert like me!
Implementing the practices and concepts I share on the show will let you go from a few hundred thousand dollars in revenue per year to millions and beyond. I’m here to help you finally get out of your own way so you can build a business beyond yourself.
