Casey Zeman worked with a client named Danielle whose business depended entirely on her doing every task. Once a business hits $30,000 to $50,000 in revenue, Zeman says, owners should turn their repeatable processes into intellectual property assets that run without them, creating a business that doesn't collapse when they step away.

I was talking to a client the other day, her name is Danielle, and we was laying out her fulfillment process and we was basically circling with a red pen basically like everywhere she shows up in the process. And I showed her and it just hit me right then. I was like, your business is I/me driven instead of IP driven. So I/me driven is like, all right, something needs to get done. Okay, well, I'll do it. Who is this dependent on? Oh, that's dependent on me. So we looked at every part of our process, and if we was to pull her out of there, the whole thing was to implode. This wasn't ideal for her because she prioritizes family as being a wife, as being a mother, but her business was like pulling her out of all that. So I was like, okay, we need to— every piece where you show up in here, we need to create a piece of IP. So now it's an asset that can actually remove yourself from this and the business continues to run. So I think around that $30,000 to $50,000 mark, we aren't already thinking that. It's like, how do we take all of our frameworks, how do we take everything that we do and we turn it into IP?
