How much time do you have for expansion planning and strategy? We’re guessing not much.
With an OBM or Online Business Manager, you’ll have time to get that done. Because that’s one of our superpowers… structuring businesses so that they work better and grow faster. Your business doesn’t have to be online either.
We wrangle those daily tasks into an efficient process that makes things easier for you.
So when we say we can help you expand your business, we mean we free up your time for big-picture planning and help you carry out the plan.
Because when growing your business, the execution can be just as important as the plan.
It’s like building a home. Having a good blueprint is vital, but the final product won’t be as beautiful as you envisioned without a skilled construction crew and a building process. So think of an OBM as the foreman of your building crew.
Read on for a few areas where an OBM can help grow your business and lead your crew. These services can be done as one-time setup projects or monthly.
An OBM can help…
Plan your expansion for greater growth
We mentioned freeing up your time for planning, but you don’t have to do that planning alone. An OBM can help you brainstorm and build your strategy. We’ve helped clients identify potential revenue streams, explore new markets, and analyze areas for growth.
Co-lead the team for faster service
This is the part that frees up more of your time. With an OBM, you get help leading the admin team, so they carry out your plan effectively. We lead under your direction and with the company’s values in mind. We can also train new team members to make sure they have the right skills and knowledge, so they can hit the ground running.
Create processes for better workflow
Business owners tend to be big-picture thinkers and love leaving detailed processes to people like us. As OBMs, we help you get a workflow in place, so your business works seamlessly. This includes setting up systems for lead follow-up, managing client data, invoicing, marketing emails, and social media marketing.
Set up business systems for more efficiency
OBMs work with a variety of systems and can recommend the best ones for different and/or unique uses, based on experience.
Need a system that collects your leads from different sources and assigns them to team members based on their availability? We’ve got you covered. What about a billing system that can go from estimate to signed contract with invoices for staged payments? No worries.
With the right systems, every part of your business can work together in sync. This includes tools for customer service, billing, communication, back-ups, marketing, follow-up, and delivery.
Streamline more, complicate less
With so many business tools out there, it’s easy to get excited about the latest apps.
But in our world, tools and systems aren’t worth using if they complicate your workflow. We only use them to streamline processes and, ultimately, to help you grow your business.
