Show Notes:
It can be overwhelming just thinking about getting all the things on our ‘to-do’ list done on a daily basis, let alone actually doing them.
In this episode of The Entrepreneurial You podcast that was recorded at Couples San Souci in Ocho Rios, Jamaica, I spoke with Kate Erickson about systemizing businesses to scale and grow (see below to access special discounts being offered by Couples Resorts).
Kate, the systems ‘boss lady’, quickly pointed out that “it is a beautiful thing about setting up systems in business to give you freedom.” And freedom is what we can all do with more of. Her simple 4-part strategy which you can implement right away will take the pain out of developing those well needed systems in our businesses and life in general.
- Take inventory in your business by writing down everything you do in a day
- Write the steps for each activity
- Look at steps and find efficiencies to identify what you can automate, delegate and batch
- Document what the processes are having done steps 1-3.

Heneka, thank you so much for inviting me on the podcast to chat systems and processes! I really enjoyed breaking down how any entrepreneur – no matter what stage they’re at in their business – can create systems around tasks that will help them work more efficiently, scale, and grow!
I really had such a fun time talking with you Kate. Your ‘know-how’ on the subject matter is superb. You’ve earn the right to be called an expert on the topic. Thanks again.
