Viktor Mayer-Schönberger explains why businesses need Standard Operating Procedures and shares a free resource listing 109 common SOP topics to document. Learn which processes to systemize for better operational efficiency.
So you've established that you want to build more SOPs for your business because you want to get systemized and you want to actually start documenting how you operate your business. Well, first of all, way to go. Good job. If you are struggling though, on figuring out what those sops might be, I have a free resource for you in the description of this, which is actually a guide to 109 common SOPs that we see our clients at ProcessDriven create to add value in that first stage of systemization. This PDF breaks down 109 examples of what SOP topics you might want to create. No, it doesn't include the perfectly written SOPs because I've got no idea what your process is versus mine, but it does give you kind of the checkbox system so you can at least review your operations. For these 109 most common SOPs we see folks create to make sure you've got all of your boxes covered. Because sometimes the hardest part of systemizing is just realizing what you need to systemize and what you might be forgetting to even think about.
