Why I Stopped Chasing Jobs and Started Building Systems
Early in my career I equated motion with progress. AKA: Rocking chair syndrome. If the phone rang, I was winning. If my schedule was full, I was successful. But all that movement was just noise. I was busy, not effective. The shift came when I started documenting everything! How calls were answered, how quotes were written and how materials were ordered. Once I built systems, my business stopped depending on how many hours I worked and started depending on how well I led. Systems create predictability. Predictability builds trust. Trust builds freedom. Stop being the technician who holds it all together with duct tape. Be the leader who builds a machine that runs smoothly, even when you step away. Have questions? Message me!
Anyone using automation to save time and money?
Hey everyone! I’ve been testing out some automation tools alongside Jobber to streamline my window cleaning business — things like auto-replies to leads, follow-ups for quotes, and syncing bookings with my calendar in real time. Curious if anyone else here is using automation to simplify their operations or boost client communication? I’m working on some AI-based workflows and would love to swap ideas or even show what I’ve been building if there’s interest. What tasks are you still doing manually that you wish could be automated?
