In this episode, we talk about…

• Foundation of Creating Systems in Your Business:

1. Start with a rough draft or outline with the problem you want solved at the top.

2. Create a checklist of the steps it takes to address the problem—get specific.

3. Implement it and make changes as needed.

• 2 Ways to Create Checklists for Your System:
