If You Disappeared For Two Weeks, What Would Actually Keep Running? - Profit Tip #27 of 99
For most owners I work with, the honest answer is "Not much."
Sales stalls. Key clients call your mobile. Staff wait for direction. Cash gets delayed because you're the one approving everything.
Owner dependence. Not just a lifestyle problem. A commercial one.
It caps growth at your personal capacity. Halves your valuation multiple. Keeps your team stuck because you solve every problem instead of building the system that solves it.
The fix isn't a new hire. It's writing down decisions.
Every time you make a call in the business: Could I write a rule for this so next time someone else makes it without asking?
Start with the 3 most common. Write the rule. Test it. Six months of this changes the structure.
What would stop working if you disappeared for two weeks?
