Entrepreneurs design, build and run businesses. As one you must be able to create systems on how the businesses will run successfully.
Don’t let people deceive you that entrepreneurship is not for everybody, everyone has the capacity in them to build businesses that’s how God made us. Its either you are building your own businesses, or you are helping someone build the ones they have founded (Intrapreneurship). That’s what entrepreneurship is all about.
On systems
Entrepreneurship is not easy but its worth it. To make it easy, you need to start building systems and processes either before you start or immediately you start, systems help your business to run even when you are not there.
Don’t build the business around you but build it around your customers and the team.
People & trust
Train your team so you can trust them, don’t employ people because you want to trust them, let people earn the trust by their contribution into the business.
If you have been running your business for more than two years and you can’t take a stroll, and nothing gets wrong? Then know that you are doing something wrong and be sure that even after 5years without you the business will still fail.
I developed systems even before I started any of my businesses. Systems and processes are the surest proof you need to sustain your business beyond you.
To your success.
