Episode Description: In this episode, I break down why your tech stack might be simpler than you think. Whether you're currently running your business straight from your inbox or drowning in a sea of disconnected tools, I'll show you how to build the essential foundation you actually need.
I share the real talk about why the transition from $5k to $15k months is such a crucial turning point in your business systems. Most entrepreneurs I work with hit this wall around $8-10k months - that's when you realize manually managing everything isn't sustainable anymore, but you also don't need 40 different tools to scale.
You'll learn:
- Why more tools doesn't equal better systems (and when to keep it simple vs. when to upgrade)
- The four core tech foundations every $15k month business needs
- How to avoid the common mistake of choosing tech before having systems in place
- My grocery store analogy for tech shopping (because we've all made the mistake of shopping hungry without a list!)
Plus, I get real about why revenue can be a helpful indicator of your systems needs - not because of the money itself, but because it tells me how much you've got on your plate and whether you're ready to refine your processes.
