I do everything myself and have no time
If the business stops when you stop, you own a job, not a business.
Many owners open the shop, buy stock, handle customers, do accounts and close late. Growth stops because there is no time to think.
Why it happens
The owner does every task because nobody else knows how, and nobody learns because the owner does every task.
Three fixes
- List everything you did this week. Mark the tasks only you can do. Usually it is a short list.
- Pick one repeated task and write the steps on one page.
- Hand that task to someone for two weeks. Check the result, not the method.
