  • Are you a Business Owner or Business Operator?

    If You:

    1) Work in multiple 'departments' of the business - daily

    2) Are unable to take a real vacation without getting pulled in to deal with some emergency

    OR

    3) Get pulled away from doing the things you love in your business regularly

     

    YOU MAY BE A BUSINESS OPERATOR!

    Good news - this page was built for you!

  • Who/What Is A Business Operator?

    A Business Operator is the primary force driving a team working towards fulfillment of a company vision. This team may be all employees or a dedicated team of contractors, but usually includes a mixture of contractors, vendors and employees. When the Business Owner and the Business Operator are the same person, the business owner is often wearing multiple hats inside the business and could not afford to be replaced at fair market rate without the business crashing. Problematically, there is rarely enough full-time work under any individual hat to make it worth outsourcing.

     

    How to Position Your Business to Outsource The Operations

  • Pros and Cons of Being a Business Operator

    Pros

    • Owner salary is typically competitive with market rates
    • Company can make money while they take short breaks
    • Often have their finger on the pulse of the company
    • Can easily adapt situations inside the company & out
    • Often has ability, cashflow & systems to outsource
    • Usually has a team with additional skillsets to leverage

    Cons

    • Can usually only afford short breaks from the business!
    • Usually struggling to separate Paycheck from Profits
    • Paycheck is often sacrificed when cashflow is lean
    • Owner/Operator has little time to work ON the business
    • Finding resources for growth that fit is challenging
    • Owner/Operator is often exhausted from juggling tasks
    • Owner/Operator rarely is able to get to all jobs
    • The business is not usually sell-able in it's current form
  • Are you ready to outsource?

    Hiring a replacement business operator is challenging.

    Before getting serious, consider if you:

    Have the ability to add a $50-80k salary to your overhead without going under AND have the time or ability to train the operator on your preferred processes

    OR

    Have someone on your team who is organized, structured, and a solid leader who can start to take on additional workload without hampering quality of performance

    If neither of those fit you, you might want to look at bringing on a Fractional COO or start automating and eliminating from your plate so you can have more time to focus on sales, finance management, and marketing!
