I think when people hear the word automation, it can sound daunting – like we’re about to hand our entire business over to a bunch of robots.
But in reality, getting started with automation doesn’t mean reinventing your business; it often starts with a few small, intentional tweaks.
In the video below, we’ll talk about finding those “micro moments” – the tiny tasks, handoffs, or recurring steps that you repeat every week (or every day) without thinking about it. These are often the best areas to start with automation.
When you can standardize or streamline those pieces, you start freeing up your time for the parts of your business that actually need you. And just to be clear, automation isn’t about removing humans entirely – it’s about using humans more strategically. Think of it like assigning technology the repetitive stuff so your team (or just you) can focus on high-impact, high-value work.
If you’ve ever felt like there just aren’t enough hours in the day for your to-do list, or you’re painfully aware that the things your working on don’t feel like the best use of your time – this video is for you.
If the ideas in this video resonate and you want help finding specific areas where automation can simplify your operations (and your life), check out the Fundamentals of Business Automation course. It’s designed to help you spot opportunities, build smarter systems, and spend more time on the things that matter most.
Wise Words: Automation
We interviewed eight business owners who use automation in their own businesses, and with their clients. This course is a compilation of the lessons we wish we’d learned earlier.
