David Jenyns explains that businesses without robust systems become highly dependent on key individuals, rely on tribal knowledge, and operate inefficiently. This leads to stress for owners and staff, frequent mistakes, dropped tasks (e.g., missed follow-ups), weaker proposals and sales, and ultimately lost revenue.
Sometimes you don't even notice you're doing it. You might be subconsciously pushing away work. What happens when businesses don't have robust systems? The business is very key person dependent. That creates a lot of stress. There's oftentimes mistakes. Things don't always get complete if certain team members aren't there to do those particular tasks because everything's. It's almost like transferred via tribal knowledge. So they run very inefficiently and they're not good for clients, they're not good for staff, they're not good for business owners and their bottom line. Oftentimes dropping a lot of balls is another thing. Whether it's not following up with leads or sometimes you don't even notice you doing it. You might be subconsciously pushing away work because you already feel like you're so busy and if you took on another project, oh, that would just be so much pain. Your proposals aren't as good as they could be, you're not selling as hard you could be and you end up leaving a lot of money on the table.
