Where the money slips away

  • The business slows down whenever you take a day off
  • You're the bottleneck for every decision and every fix
  • Processes live in one person's head
  • You need an operations manager but can't justify a full-time salary yet

Proof

4 → 50 calls a day

At a San Diego storage company, one person chasing overdue accounts went from about 4 calls a day to 50 after we automated the reminders and built a ranked call list. Same person, same hours.
