Systemize Your Success

🎙 Steve introduces the RED method, a simple yet powerful technique for documenting tasks in your business without taking up any extra time. By following the RED method, entrepreneurs can effectively delegate tasks and create robust systems for their businesses.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

💡 The RED method is a simple and powerful technique for documenting tasks in your business without taking up extra time.

💡 The first step in the RED method is to hit record using a screen capture app, such as ScreenPal or Loom, to capture your actions and narration.

💡 During the recording, explain each step of the task, including variable inputs and the desired end result.

💡 DIDACT is an acronym for Description, Inputs, Deliverables, Access, Checks, and Time. These elements provide a comprehensive guide for the person performing the task.

💡 By following the RED method and providing clear instructions, you can effectively delegate tasks and free up your time for higher-value work.

BEST MOMENTS

00:04 - "In today's episode, I'm gonna be talking you through a simple process that will allow you to document pretty much any task in your business without it actually taking you any net time at all."

02:50 - "The Record process or the RED method is going to use the information you captured in your personal systemisation plan (from the previous episode)."

17:34 - "DIDACT is how I fixed all the overwhelm, chaos and much more besides. It's an acronym that stands for the Description, the Inputs, the Deliverables, the Access, the Checks, and the Time."

19:48 - "Deliverables is all about what is it that the person is gonna produce and where should they put it."

ABOUT THE HOST

Steve was a slave to his business, but when he moved to Sweden in 2015, he was forced to change how he worked. He switched to running his businesses remotely. After totally nailing this concept, he spent his time helping other small business owners do the same. Steve’s been investing in property since 2002, has a degree in Computing, and worked as a doctor in the NHS before quitting to focus full-time on sharing his systems and outsourcing
Methodology with the world. He now lives in Sweden and runs his UK-based businesses remotely with the help of his team of Filipino and UK-based Virtual Assistants.

Most business owners are overwhelmed because they don’t know how to create systems or get the right help.

Our systems and outsourcing Courses and coaching programme will help you automate your business and work effectively with affordable virtual assistants. That way, you will stop feeling overwhelmed and start making more money.

🎙 In this episode, Steve continues the conversation on the personal systemization plan and provides tips and tricks on how to effectively use that information in your business. He discusses the importance of prioritizing tasks using an impact effort matrix, which visually helps determine which tasks should be delegated or automated first. Steve also looks at how to use the personal systemization plan to create a task matrix, which provides total visibility and control over recurring tasks in your business. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

💡 The personal systemization plan is a crucial tool for organizing and prioritizing tasks in your business. It helps you determine which tasks to delegate or automate first based on their impact on your bottom line and the effort required to complete them.

💡 The impact effort matrix is a visual tool that can help you prioritize tasks more effectively. By plotting tasks based on their impact and effort required, you can easily identify high-impact, low-effort tasks that should be prioritized.

💡 Creating a task matrix in a task management app, such as Asana or ClickUp, allows you to have a complete record of all recurring tasks in your business. This provides visibility and control over the work being done and helps with workload balancing and accountability.

💡 The task matrix can also be used to guide recruitment. By identifying the tasks you want to delegate and creating a clear job description based on those tasks, you can hire the right person for the job and ensure they have the necessary skills and experience.

💡 The next steps in the systemization process include the record process, which involves getting information out of your head and into an operations manual, and the recruitment process, which focuses on hiring the right people for delegated tasks. These steps are essential for scaling your business and freeing up your time.

BEST MOMENTS

00:41 "So the question is this, how do entrepreneurs like us who don't have an endless supply of cash, how do we leverage the best apps, virtual assistants, automation tools and systems to scale our businesses, increase our profits and have more time to do what we love to do each day?"

03:01 "And a way that I found really helpful, I'm a visual person, so I find this particularly helpful is to use what's called an effort impact matrix."

12:48 "And because you've done the hard work by actually documenting all this stuff, your personal systemization plan, you might as well take this next step now and capture all that on your task matrix, which we're going to develop as we go through."

15:05 "And lastly, I talked about how this same work, the same personal systemization plan can be used to guide your recruitment and actually make sure you're hiring the right person to be able to do the work that you need them to do to be able to delegate down and elevate up both for you and your existing team."

16:39 "Record is all about how you get stuff out of your head as quickly as humanly possible to save you having just whatever write a single word in operation manual, how to get every single piece of information needed for someone to do the task from start to finish without your involvement and to do that without it actually taking you any more time than it would normally take you to do the work."

🎙 Steve begins his series by taking you through the methods he has developed over the past 20 years in systemising his businesses by explaining the nature of a Unified Operations System and how you can make a plan to drive your business toward success while freeing your own time. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS
💡 The first step is to detail your high-value work from your repetitive work that can be automated and delegated, how complicated that systemisation will be, and the benefits its completion will achieve. 
💡 When you hit obstacles, you may question the value of systems or the importance of yourself in that process. Clients value results, not your personal attention.
💡 Use an app like Toggl or Harvest or a simple spreadsheet to identify time-consuming tasks that could benefit from automation.  

BEST MOMENTS
1:11 - 💬 ‘I want to give you more detail on this podcast, more value on and more depth than you would ever imagine to get from a podcast, the sort of stuff you would expect to get in a great book.’
5:15 - 💬 ‘If you’ve got something tangible or some quantifiable number to hang on that the outcome of you getting that system nailed, it’s much more likely that you’ll see it through.’
9:19 - 💬 ‘Tracking how long each task you're doing is taking is a massively game-changing thing. It can change the way you view the value of your time.’
11:19 - 💬 ‘There’s no point in waiting and waiting until you think you have all the knowledge. Practice is how you improve in delegation. It’s how you improve in systems creation.’

🎙 Steve talks about the current AI and automation techniques available, the lure of new applications and technology, and how they can distract you from getting your work done, getting your clients served and making your business successful. Your business still needs people and systems to function effectively.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
💡 Despite the opportunities that automation can offer, many small businesses do not need to sacrifice the time needed in integration to the detriment of their core business. 
💡 Delegation and systems are the true keys to freeing you from the day-to-day tasks involved in running your business.
💡 A Unified Operations System doesn’t just detail the tasks you do but includes hiring, training, communication and improvement functions.
💡 The number of apps needed for systemisation is fewer than you would think, and there are dedicated sites and resources for hiring talented remote workers. 
💡 A structured, streamlined business has a massive advantage over its more chaotic counterparts regarding efficiency and staff retention. 

BEST MOMENTS
3:05 - 💬 ‘Your ability to delegate work to other people is the number one reason your business will give you the lifestyle you deserve.’
6:11 - 💬 ‘The formula I've developed will help you to effectively create systems to avoid feeling stuck in your business and stop wasting time delegating and managing work that doesn’t hit the standards you expect or want.’
11:03 - 💬 ‘There’s access to an abundance of super affordable, incredibly powerful apps, technology, and platforms we can utilise. The challenge is utilising the right ones in the right way without getting completely overwhelmed and attracted by the shiny pennies.’
16:33 - 💬 ‘Systemising your business makes it easier for your staff to perform at a higher level because they don’t have to reinvent the wheel at every step.’

🎙 This episode details the real reasons why Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) are essential in your business, and they are probably not the reasons you would expect.

Steve reveals his experiences with Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and how he has decided to take action and put some sturdy and accessible measurables in place. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS 

💡 It is challenging to celebrate successes when they are not made evident by tracking KPIs.

💡 If your staff are tracking their progress, they will be motivated by success to improve. 

💡 Setting up Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) can prevent miscommunication about the progress of projects or assignments. 

💡 Empower your staff to have the courage to confirm priority tasks when workload increases and have the Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to back up their point to avoid misunderstandings. 

BEST MOMENTS

1:51 - 💬 ‘Celebrating success is even more important because we are a remote team. We all work from home, so we must consider facilitating these celebrations.’

4:17 - 💬 ‘The reality is, your staff benefit more from the KPIs. Because if your staff are tracking their progress, they will be motivated to improve.’

10:34 - 💬 ‘Your staff needs to know what the goals are and what success looks like. So if your KPIs are nailed, they would know when they reach success.’

12:35 - 💬 ‘Tracking and celebrating success are the key things I'm doing wrong. And hopefully, by doing and getting this right, it will give my team something to lean on when they're doubting themselves and doubting how wonderful work they're doing.’

🎙 Steve introduces a simple technique that will help you improve your staff's expertise and competence, bringing value back into your business while acknowledging that people make mistakes, can learn beyond them and ensure that they don’t happen again with your entire team. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS
💡 Turn your staff's weakness, failure or lack of understanding into a strength by having them create a short presentation about the subject or task to share everything they could need to know and learn with the team. By doing this, they become experts.
💡 Having your staff share their knowledge through a short presentation with the team during company meetings will further strengthen the team's knowledge base. 
💡 Create a culture where you and your team own your mistakes and take the learning and teaching response so that such errors are far from a negative occurrence and can be developed into a positive, strengthening experience. 

BEST MOMENTS
3:15 - 💬 ‘We are consistently upping the game and pushing that bar up about what we can expect from our staff because they are continually improving.’ 
7:45 - 💬 ‘It's okay to do things wrong. It shouldn't be a massive problem in your business if people screw up. Because everyone's going to screw up, but it's what you do about it afterwards that matters.’
9:04 - 💬 ‘If you facilitate the sharing of the knowledge you gain from rectifying mistakes, it can be seen as a massive positive and takes away any potential negatives from that particular experience.’

🎙 Pantelis Zirinis is the ultimate remote businessman. He spends most of his time sailing the oceans while maintaining a busy entrepreneurial lifestyle as CEO of It’s All Greek To Me, a restaurant and souvlaki bar serving authentic Greek food in Paddington, London.
Steve and Pantelis talk about how even the most ‘brick and mortar’ of businesses can be run effectively, remotely.  

KEY TAKEAWAYS
💡 Pantelis works two days a week, during which he gets in touch with his 16-member team and deals with business meetings.
💡 Pantelis’ remote workers include himself, his Operations Manager and an admin resident in the Philippines.
💡 Systems and Outsourcing is working with It’s All Greek To Me to fully systemise the operation as an ongoing project. 
💡 Systemisation negates the need to rely on one person and mitigates the risk of losing one key staff member. 
💡 Standardised weekly team meetings facilitate KPIs' upkeep and replace the need for 20 to 30 separate communications throughout the week.
💡 Continual improvement and the ability to prioritise, including knowing when to say stop, are vital to the automation process.
💡 Set your company's quarterly goals realistically and split them into sub-goals to assure completion and avoid over-challenging your team. 

BEST MOMENTS
3:58 - 💬 ‘At the moment, I don't have the plan to go back physically to the business. I go back whenever it makes sense on my personal life, more than on the business.’ - Pantelis  
12:03 - 💬 ‘Employees crave structure. They crave thinking, ‘What am I meant to do today when I show up?’’...But once you have a structure, you need to replicate that so it's standard no matter who's doing that job.’ - Steve
21:33 - 💬 ‘Creating systems will always be a work in progress. If you go for perfection, you'll never going to get there...You just need to run it, then after a month, make a review. Improve it. Improve it. Improve it. It's never going to be perfect, but it's going to be good enough so people know what to do.’ - Pantelis
22:04 - 💬 ‘The concept of continual improvement: once you started documenting 'this is how it happens now', right or wrong, and not overthinking it and just saying 'this is the status quo', then, you have something to improve. And often people ask me, 'When should I start creating systems?’’ - Steve
26:31 - 💬 ‘What worked for me was that we had to keep our company meeting on the same day, same time. Every time we move it, people were dropping out.’ - Pantelis
32:25 - 💬 ‘The idea of an Agile Project Development is that your team has a certain capacity, and if you can roughly figure out how long in terms of ‘work units’ the project will take over a month. I discovered that when I did something similar, I massively overestimated what my team could achieve. And myself!’ - Steve

🎙 Steve explains how you can achieve much-improved organisation, visibility and control over your business using a Task Management System correctly. How can we empower our team to consistently maintain and improve their tasks and create a culture of continual improvement using systemisation?
Steve details the eight elements of the Task Board Management System to utilise to achieve this. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS
💡 The Task Board Management System comprises four daily and four weekly tasks that will help keep all your tasks updated and current. 
💡 Have a daily task on your team's task board to review and update existing processes or tasks.
💡 Update the secondary task owner and the average time taken of each task for easier delegation in case the task owner cannot report to work for any reason.
💡 VTOF* is Steve's acronym that labels tasks as ‘Video Guide, Task Template, Operations Manual, File, and Review (*)’. If the VTOF* is showing at the beginning of the title of a task, that means that the task does NOT have an updated Video Guide, Task Template, and Operations Manual and was NOT filed and reviewed yet.
💡 To manage projects with multiple stages, a task called the Project Placeholder is scheduled to point the team member to continue progress on that project.

BEST MOMENTS
1:44 - 💬 ‘The Task Board Management System allows you to empower your staff to take responsibility in a structured and systemised way, ensuring that their task boards and the work they're doing are kept up to date.’
11:12 - 💬 ‘When someone goes off sick or on holiday, having the average time taken on each task allows the secondary task owner to know that they need ‘x’ amount of minutes to do the task when they take over.’
16:41 - 💬 ‘The idea is of the Project Placeholder simple: I want each staff member's task board to be a true representation of what they do each day, week, month, and year.’
20:47 - 💬 ‘All in all, the Task Board Management System allows you to empower your staff to maintain their task boards going forward without you having to do all the hard work and chase people up.’

🎙 In this episode, Steve reveals why video is the number one productivity hack in his business and the seven compelling reasons why you should consider adopting it for your organisation too. Gain benefits in productivity, efficiency, time-saving, training, communication and marketing by embracing the advantages of video.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
💡 Video can fully depict a task in as much detail as a live demonstration. When tackling problems, you can get far more information on a recording than you can with the written word, so video fully conveys the enquiry.
💡 You can build rapport much more quickly visually than you can with written communication.
💡 When giving feedback to your staff, it is way better to do it through a video as they can see how you mean it compared to a written form, which they might misinterpret.
💡 Collaborative projects and time management are improved by recorded video messaging. The communication is as clear as a live video, but the receiver can set a time to watch it at their convenience.
💡 Any live training can be recorded to be repeatedly referred to at a later time.
💡 Video is the best way to document processes in your business for task delegation.
💡 The most popular posts on any Social Media platform are invariably videos. 

BEST MOMENTS
1:07 - 💬 ‘Over the past six or so years, I have started heavily working with Virtual Assistants from around the world, and that’s when I started to see the value of video. And as I work with hundreds of clients over the past six or seven years, I’ve seen its massive impact on those businesses as well.’
5:46 - 💬 ‘When you’re listening to someone’s voice while seeing the expression on their face, and you can see that they’re smiling or looking concerned, it gives us that feeling of connection with that person.
12:00 - 💬 ‘Using video allows you to cut down the time to train people in your business repeatedly and can be watched at a double speed, giving them a much more rich medium to absorb the information.’
16:48 - 💬 ‘ScreenPal (formerly called as Screencast-O-Matic) is a very solid app that improves all the time. It allows you to take screenshots, edit them and share them all seamlessly without needing additional cloud storage.’

🎙Find out three essential meetings to balance cadence, focus, length and discipline in meetings and also to be available for questions without opening yourself up to constant interruptions of your time. Using these methods you can build much more efficiency into the running of your business and increase the trust and teamwork of your staff.    

KEY TAKEAWAYS

💡The Daily Standup meeting is the hub of the business, it allows you to be able to know what your team is doing daily, help them with challenges, and ensure team focus.

💡If the staff know they have access to ask questions the following day, then they have less need to interrupt managers.  

💡Weekly 121s with your team will allow your team to share with you details about work, perhaps personal, that need to be discussed on a more private level.  

💡The Company or Departmental meeting is where you talk about company-wide announcements, company values, goals, updates on tasks,  and any company-wide issues.

💡An hour is a good maximum length for a company meeting, but ensure that one particular subject does not dominate by organising an additional meeting for that particular subject. This will ensure the presence of all staff is fully utilised.

BEST MOMENTS

1:13 - 💬 ‘If you can get this right then your whole company will work much more efficiently. There will be less interruptions between people or into your life as well.’

2:45 - 💬 ‘If you only speak to your team members once a week about what they’re actually working on and getting a pulse for the business, then you can go quite far down the wrong path before they can get pulled back in. So it's not about micromanaging; it's about being there to support people.’

5:20 - 💬 ‘The Weekly 121 is an opportunity to build trust, and more importantly, it is not an opportunity for you to start delegating more work or to take over the meeting and start running it.’

9:34 - 💬 ‘So you’re not flooding your team with multiple team meetings, which kills everyone’s productivity, start with one Company Meeting. People see the benefit of it, they enjoy it, they get the agenda, they learn how it works, and then you start putting other helpful and needed meetings to progress things forward.’
