I put a question out to my audience last week about - without downplaying the seriousness of this crisis - what are the gifts to you in this time.

And without a doubt, the single biggest gift people mentioned was time.

More time with family + kiddos,

More time to take a step back and reevaluate priorities

Take care of projects around the house

Take care of projects in your business.

So I thought now would be a good time to share this episode with David Cristello, and talk about how to design better workflows in your business.

Designing better workflows can help you

Save time and reduce redundancy
Create a better quality product
More consistent product - when everyone in the office does it the same way
Scale more easily
Be more profitable.

These are my key takeaways from our conversation:

Document all versions of the existing process as it currently exists, by all people
What can we remove
What needs editing or updating
What needs adding

Remember:

That designing workflows is not one-and-done. You can revisit and improve workflows over time.
To keep it simple, and
To include your client’s experience in the process.
