How I Prioritize Daily Operations - The Business Scale Engine
A while back I created an internal methodology called the "Business Scale Engine" with the idea being I wanted an easy "checklist" type process to manage daily meetings and operations without feeling overwhelmed (and with a consistent priority ranking that I could rely on).
I've dropped the intro to the doc below. Feel free to click the google doc link here to view the full thing if you are interested. There's a bunch of formatting and colors that skool doesn't allow for in this post so I figured it was easier to give you the intro and let you experience the full doc there.
Hopefully you find it helpful, thanks all 🙏
Introduction:
This document outlines the "Business Scale Engine," a comprehensive methodology designed to optimize and streamline operations within an early-stage startup. The methodology is structured around three crucial departments: Research & Development (R&D), Go-to-Market (GTM), and Required Support Operations (RSO). This covers all core areas and ensures 99% of items are covered.
- Research & Development (R&D) focuses on the dual aspects of product strategy and development. It aims to refine your product into a minimum viable product (MVP) that is both scalable and meets customer expectations.
- Go-to-Market (GTM) addresses the essential strategies for customer acquisition (getting), retention (keeping), and activation (referrals). It starts with fundamental activities such as customer discovery and lead acquisition, moves towards optimizing acquisition processes, and culminates in the expansion of customer acquisition channels.
- Required Support Operations (RSO) encompasses the support areas necessary to handle required operations and compliance, including legal, compliance, finance, operations, and human resources. This department ensures that all critical support functions are handled efficiently and effectively, safeguarding the company from future complications.
Each section is methodically developed to guide you from establishing a solid foundation in Level 1, through optimizing processes in Level 2, to expansion in Level 3. This structured progression ensures continuous improvement and adaptation to changing business needs and market conditions, enabling your startup to thrive and scale efficiently.
