Hey Photogs! Mike has an emergency podcast for you, talking about the Superbowl. And no, not about the actual game, so don't touch that skip button, non-football fans! But there were two important takeaways from last Sunday that Mike wants to share with you. You'll definitely want to tune in for this one.

Hey Photogs! Making checklists and task sheets can seem like a repetitive, boring thing to do. We know. Mike sits down with Nick Nelson to tell you why this ISN'T the case. Breaking things down into a system can do wonders for your business. It can save you tons of money and time. And when you work less and make more money, that's pretty darn exciting. More About our Guest Speaker: Not everyone can manage checklists and systemization like Nick Nelson. He has been in the coffee business for well over a decade, where he's learned to streamline just about every business process imaginable, and he's bringing his expertise with systemization to help you get your own business on the right track.

Discussion Topics:

• How routines and cadence are key to your success.
• Learn about workflows and how to improve them.
• Data plays a huge role in your systems and we explain why.
• The fundamentals to getting your systemization off to the right start.
• Different techniques for systematizing.
• How systemization and client communication go hand in hand.
