Episode notes
Map Processes Before You Build
- Map and document every step of a process before automating to avoid hidden work and misalignment.
- Use simple diagram tools and get stakeholder agreement before building AI or integrations.
Centralize Templates And SOPs
- Centralize SOPs and templates in a shared drive like Google Drive to prevent fragmentation.
- Keep knowledge simple and accessible so tools like Gemini can search and use it directly.
People Are The Early Bottleneck
- Technology becomes a major lever only after you scale beyond a small team of people.
- Before ~20–25 people, hiring and operational staff are usually the bigger bottleneck than tech.
