119: In Systems We Trust with Marquis Murray
Free Time with Jenny Blake
Using Web Hooks in a Hup Spot?
Hup spot uses web hooks to communicate with clients. When someone signs a doc, the scanaria then moves them forward in your hup spot pipe line. Other triggers include hello in docky sign and 'saved' on paned-off emails.
“Why would someone fly you across the world to do business with them?” That powerful question from a mentor in March 2020 gave today’s guest, Marquis Murray, the courage to go all-in on his passion of helping business owners create order from chaos through greater operational efficiency.
More About Marquis: Marquis Murray is the CEO and Founder of Ditto, a systems and processes consultancy for organizations who need help creating clarity around the work inside their companies. His goal is eliminating team burnout, so people can focus more on the work they do without the stress of not knowing where or how the work is happening. He is also the host of the In Systems We Trust podcast where owners and leaders of businesses talk about the systems, processes, and operational efficiency practices they use every day.
🌟3 Key Takeaways:
- If you’re not updating your systems and processes as your business grows, then you might be en route to burnout. Make sure your foundation can support your growth.
- Just because you can do something better or faster yourself, doesn’t mean you should.
- What happens immediately after a client signs on the dotted line? That is the very last place you want something to fall through the cracks.
📝Permission: Stop apologizing for wanting perfection, or wanting to improve. Don’t be afraid to say no in order to protect your time and spend more energy working in your zone of genius.
✅Do (or Delegate) This Next: Ask, “How can I make this easier?” This is often the best starting place when you want to improve your systems and automated processes.
