You’re Never Too Small for Systems: CRMs, Admin, and Getting It Together
Welcome to the 37th episode of Take the Leap's second season. In this episode, "You’re Never Too Small for Systems: CRMs, Admin, and Getting It Together," co-hosts Ashlan Glazier-Anderson and Victoria Proppe reflect on how entrepreneurship is as much about how you work and grow as what you achieve, among other reflections from our conversation with Aman Thakral. Reflecting, streamlining your systems, and being intentional with your energy are just as vital as your bottom line. Listen to the episode with Aman Thakral that we reference on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or watch on YouTube.
Key Takeaways from the Episode:
- In traditional 9–5 jobs, reflection often only happens during annual performance reviews (if at all), and is often tied to arbitrary goals. As entrepreneurs, you can reflect more meaningfully and regularly on how far you’ve come, what’s working, and what you want to change.
- One of Aman’s biggest insights: Accepting a “no” is just as powerful as chasing a “yes.” Identifying a “no” early saves time, energy, and mental space so you can focus on warmer, better-aligned opportunities. It’s also important to give clear no’s to others–ghosting or vague responses waste everyone’s time.
- Amman reinforced that a customer relationship management (CRM) system is vital, even for solo entrepreneurs. A good CRM helps manage data, follow up on leads, and track growth, without relying on memory or scattered notes.
