Don't Be The Resource
Are you stuck in the never-ending cycle of being the technician in your business?
Are you wearing all the hats & handling every aspect of your business - from winning the work to delivering the work, to admin, HR, marketing, operations etc?
Sometimes it can feel like a hamster wheel.
In order for your business to grow, you need to make the time to step out of the technician business owner mindset and into the entrepreneurial business owner mindset.
You need to focus on controlling the resources, not being the resource.
Regardless of whether you're a single person business owner or running a $10 million per year consultancy, the goal is the same.
Shift your thinking from the technician business owner to the entrepreneurial conductor.
You want to be the one shaping the vision, guiding your team, and orchestrating the path to success, not stuck in the daily grind.
Now, I get it. Sometimes you'll have to get your hands dirty, deliver that report, or handle a specific task.
But the key is to minimise these instances. You want to spend as much time as you can focusing on the bigger picture, the long-term strategy, and the growth of your business.
No matter the size of your business, it's time to start thinking about what you can outsource.
Get a virtual assistant to help with administrative tasks, delegate bookkeeping, and streamline your operations and project delivery.
Shift from being the technician to the conductor.
From working in the business to working on the business.
It's definitely a journey, and it's not always easy - but it's so worth it.
You can build a business that doesn't rely on you and empowers your team to perform at a higher level.
Embrace the challenges, retrain your focus & approach, and be prepared for some internal resistance.
Remember, awareness is the key. As you transition, you'll be navigating these challenges and evolving into the entrepreneur & business owner you aspire to be.
The path from technician to entrepreneur is an incredible journey, and with the right mindset, awareness & dedication, you CAN build a business that thrives without you being a resource.
