If you work for a business that employs less than 10 people, you're in good company. 95% of construction businesses do.
There are good and bad things about working in a company this size.
- Sometimes there's too much work, sometimes not enough...
- Sometimes people get "stretched" way too thin...
- The business can get hit hard when an employee moves on...
- Sometimes the payroll comes before the pay (and the bank is suddenly not so helpful)...
- And the list goes on...
People in companies this size often keep WAY to much information in their heads. So when anyone gets sick, takes a vacation, or moves on to another company it creates all kinds of problems.
It's tough for anyone in a smaller company to find the time to work ON the business, rather than IN it. As a result, little or no time goes into developing systems and the business stays stuck at the same level. The business is destined to always face the same kinds of problems - day in and day out - unless systems are developed.
It takes a lot of time and effort to put systems together. But unless someone puts systems together to manage, organize, communicate, and grow, the business will ALWAYS have more mistakes, more problems, and higher costs than it should.
Lack of systems cost money, choke businesses, and prevent them from growing.
Whether you have one crew or several, systems can make your life easier.
