Good systems are the lifeblood of a business in momentum. There’s just too much to do, to keep going, to do it all by hand, custom, every time.
I talk about systems and not being a zombie here.
Today, however, is a cautionary message about not overwhelming yourself with systems. That you can spend a LOT of time, and too much money, trying to set up… well, let me get into it.
Have you already stepped into this? Or is this message going to save you from drowning yourself in a system?
With love,

Webinar TOMORROW- Thursday, October 15.
Tending to your business while facing all that’s going on in the world has *always* been an issue, at least for the past twenty years that I’ve been paying attention.
However, the urgency in the world seems to have stepped up, and the overwhelm and emotional paralysis seem to be stronger than ever.
Can I offer you some medicine for these times?
A free webinar, with no hard upsells or manipulative funnels attached, coming next week.

Mark, I just watched that video: Have you already stepped into this? Or is this message going to save you from drowning yourself in a system? OMGoodness!! It was like you read my mind, it couldn’t have come at a more poignant time. I was struggling with choosing the right CRM for my business. And just a few days ago, I stopped myself and thought ‘stop trying to force myself to make the right (aka perfect!) decision with this now! I surrendered the need and the speed of which I thought I needed and the answers came…. I too, dont need a CRM on steroids (like KEAP) as I already have systems that would overlap some of their functions, making it not an effective spend or time in set-up. So I settled for Hubspot, whic is a much leaner package and only caters for my marketing needs, not futureproofing my business in 5 years etc. I am so happy I didnt allow myself to be convinved by these system’s excellent sales processes that I NEED their packages. And I truly thank you for your timely advice, it reassured me with the decision I made, and I ended up saving 50% by waiting and listening to my intuition. I hope a lot of sole traders and small business owners also come across your video and sage wisdom. It was the final piece of the puzzle I needed to put my decision to rest. Thank you and all the best!
