105: SYSTEMology with David Jenyns

What kind of systems do YOU have in place for your business? Dr. Sabrina welcomes the master of systems, David Jenyns, back to the show. When he last sat down to chat with Dr. Sabrina in Episode 54, he revealed the power in having systems set in place for our businesses, particularly when it comes to setting our businesses up for a 4 Week Vacation. Since then, David has released a new book, SYSTEMology, and on today’s show he and Dr. Sabrina will be digging in to some of the mind-blowing insights from the book and David will be sharing how we don’t need to work harder to reap the benefits of systemizing our businesses. David’s entrepreneurial journey begins back in his early 20’s when he sold Australia’s most loved sporting ground, the Melbourne Cricket Ground. Since then, his business experience spans from franchising retail clothing stores, to founding one of Australia’s most trusted digital agencies, melbourneSEOservices.com. In 2016, he successfully systemized himself out of the business, hired a CEO and stepped back from the daily operations. Through this process he became a systems devotee – founding systemHUB & SYSTEMology. Today, his mission is to free all business owners worldwide from the daily operations of running their business. Profit by Design is a Tap the Potential Production in collaboration with Small Business Consulting Group. Show Highlights: David shares a personal story about the lessons he learned when a call didn’t go the way he planned. There are going to be times when things do not go in your favor and you’ll need processes and systems in place. When you’re playing on a bigger level, the impact of when things don’t go right is also much bigger. When things come up, find a way to turn it around and work it into the narrative. David and Dr. Sabrina share stories of adversity they have faced and how they were able to move forward. The value of having systems in place is that these systems give you options. Dr. Sabrina divulges her big A-ha moments while reading David’s book. Why 20 percent of the systems you create will provide 80 percent of your efficiency wins. David takes us through the stages of SYSTEMology. Start by systemizing what IS working. Take the best bits, and make it consistent. Systemizing is a two-person job. It does not have to be YOU creating the systems. The goal here is to break your business down into a linear series of steps that your clients move through when working with your business. It should consist of no more than 7–12 steps. Once you get to the point where you’re no longer the heart of the business, interfering with the daily operations is rarely a good idea. Don’t miss the epilogue! David wants to give some Profit By Design listeners a signed copy of his book. If you go and purchase the Kindle version of the book on Amazon, send your receipt to [email protected] and there will be a drawing in the next couple of episodes for two people to receive a signed copy of SYSTEMology.
