Switching “on” Your Automation Mindset

 

Here’s the low-down on ways to become more aware of ways that you can automate your business (yup, you – no matter what kind or size of businesses).  So often we go through our days on “auto-pilot”, doing things the way we’ve always done them without a thought to whether we could be working more effectively, and just on the stuff we love.

• Track your time – you may not be the great guardian of your time you believe yourself to be!
• No Manual Entry (import, export, use your phone, scan) – this is a legit rule you need to start observing. There is rarely EVER an occasion when you should be inputting data by hand if it exists somewhere else.
• Once you see an opportunity, ask for recommendations –  Ask your colleagues, friends or I’ve been known to have a suggestion or opinion.
• Ask yourself if procrastination is an opportunity for automation? (Think about what you’re putting off because you don’t want to/don’t like to do it. Is that something you could be automating?)
