You’re trying to have lunch. Or maybe you’re finally sitting down to look at a set of plans.
Bzzt. Bzzt.
It’s your apprentice. Or your site supervisor.
"Hey Boss, where do you want the skip bin?"
"Hey Boss, how do I fill out this variation?"
"Hey Boss, I forgot to get the client to sign off."
Every time you hear "Hey Boss," your focus is shattered. You aren't running a business; you are babysitting grown men.
The harsh truth is this: If the business stops when you stop, you don't own a business. You own a high-stress job.
The "Hit by a Bus" Test.
If you couldn't come to work for a month, what would happen?
Would the invoices go out? Would the sites be safe? Would the vans be clean?
If the answer is "No," it’s because the operating system of your company is stored inside your brain. It’s time to download it.
Great businesses run on Systems, not muscle. You need a "Source of Truth." A manual that answers the questions so you don't have to. Trade Business SOPs.
Imagine a world where your team pulls out their phone, opens an App, and sees exactly:
How to park the van.
How to talk to an angry client.
How to enforce safety rules.
When you hand them the manual, you stop being the bottleneck.
You start being the CEO.
Stop repeating yourself. Build the system.
