The System For Systemising Your Business.
While every business is different in their make up and stage of growth – the process is the same. When you work with a certified SYSTEMologist® you can feel confident they are working from our proven, proprietary 7 step process.

Step 1. Define
The process begins by identifying your Critical Client Flow™ (CCF). Only by identifying and focusing on the critical steps in your lead generation, conversion and delivery, will you be able to get the quickest traction.
One common misconception about business systemization is that you will need to document hundreds of systems before seeing results. The truth is, simply documenting and systemizing your CCF (which could be anywhere between 10 – 20 systems) will have a marked impact on your business.
Step 2. Assign
Often times the business owner is the worst person to document systems and processes because they can always ‘do it better themselves’. But that attitude doesn’t get you far, so our next step is to identify the core departments within your business. Department Heads are now identified and the responsibility of recording how the business is currently run gets delegated.
At the end of this step, it will be clear what systems need to be created and who will be responsible for them.
Step 3. Extract
In this step, our SYSTEMologist works with your team to capture how the team is currently completing and delivering your product/service. This is often done through online live recording and/or video recordings.
The SYSTEMologist then extracts that valuable information and places it in the supporting documentation. Smart Operating Procedures (SOPs) may include the original video recording, a written process, checklist, flow chart and other supporting material such as scripts, forms, email templates, and so on.
Step 4. Organise
Having great systems is one thing, but keeping them formatted and organized consistently – and easy to find – is another. To solve this problem we have developed our own cloud based software solution called systemHUB.com. Your SYSTEMologist is expertly trained in this software and will setup, customize and provide your team with training on how the platform works.
Because your systems will be in this easy to use, secure, cloud based platform, systemHUB™ will quickly become the heart of all your systems.
Step 5. Integrate
With great systems now in place, the next step is to integrate it with your team. The goal is to have everyone recognize that this is simply “the way things are done around here”. Fostering a culture of ‘systems thinking’ within your team is almost as vital as the systems themselves.
Your SYSTEMologist will add incredible value in this step because, unless your team follows your system, they will never reach their full potential. SYSTEMologists have numerous strategies at their disposal to increase team member “buy in” and continued systems engagement.
Step 6. Scale
In this step, our SYSTEMologist will identify the systems critical for scaling your business – including financial systems, human resource systems and management systems. There will be a specific focus on getting your recruitment, onboarding and training processes right, as these are critical to growth and fostering the systems thinking mindset.
