The upside of systems for contractors

Businesses become strong if their people and systems are strong. Both are key.

The human face of business

Without question people make businesses what they are. They are essential but they also need to be trained and managed.

People have bad days, get sick, sometimes do things that are not always in the interest of the business or customers, take vacations, quit unexpectedly, and move on with their lives. People are by nature unpredictable.

How to grow, flow, and endure

On the other hand, systems make business more predictable. They stay with the business and build lasting value. Systems are what make businesses grow, flow, endure, and sell.

Systems are the same magic ingredient that make franchises and nation wide stores dominate every market they have entered.

Businesses that put good systems in place massively outperform their competition.

Advantages of using systems in your contracting business:

• systems don't have bad days, phone in sick, take vacations, or quit
• systems provide a reliable ways of doing things
• systems require less day-to-day management (plus offer more streamlined operations, more consistent quality, less finger pointing, and lower stress levels)
• provide a good foundation for growth
• offer more freedom to managers / owners
• help businesses sell faster (and for more money)
