Last week, I read an interesting article on the E-Myth website that mentioned: “People are unmanageable. Systems are not.” This is so true. With people coming and going in any organization, what truly stands the test of time are systems or processes. A system or process is something that can be repeated over and over again (think how McDonalds makes its burgers!) to give your business the same results again and again. Identifying and documenting processes in your business will not only help you start automating the smaller things, but will free up resources, help you delegate better, increase team productivity and give you the scale you need to grow! In fact, you can start creating a system now! Just take something that you or your team does repeatedly, document the process in detail, share the process with your team and then try to repeat it over and over again. Just like the steps in a cookbook. You can pretty much automate your entire business by creating simple processes that your team can use again and again! By the way, Michael Gerber’s E-Myth Revisited is a great book for anyone aspiring to grow their business using a system-driven and methodical approach. |

DeskAway, our on-demand project management software is live on the web. Do check it out at www.deskaway.com. Deskaway provides users a central location to organize, manage and track company projects. We have a 30 day trial version for those who want to take it for a spin!
Why did we create this? We just couldn’t do all of this through email and still work efficiently and smoothly. Bottom line, we were spending far too much time finding and planning things that were already planned just because there was no single place where everything was stored. We wanted to be in control of our projects at every minute, not have our projects and tasks control our already busy lives! We checked out some other existing solutions but that didn’t meet our expectations. Other products were either too simple or lacked common features for project management, or were hard to use and get around. We wanted (and thought that the other companies would too) something simple yet powerful, which could provide us with enough features to manage our projects efficiently. ‘Working smart’ became our goal and hence, DeskAway was born for people like us who like to be in control!
