What would happen to your company if someone was suddenly absent for a prolonged period?You are a small-business owner. You and your one or two other staff members are busy… too busy with all that you have on your plates. You wear 100 hats. Truth be told, you don’t wear them all well. But what would happen to your company if one of those few people was suddenly gone for a prolonged period of time? Our answer is to DOCUMENT your ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURES!RECOVER: Documenting your procedures protects you from the sudden absence of a key person. Especially if you are in a small business environment. Developing a “This Job for Dummies” procedure book will walk any novice through the urgent tasks of that position so that the company can survive through the emergency.REPLACE: If you have to replace that person, this Procedure will also keep the upper management from having to babysit the new person through training. Rather than spending a full week or two standing over the new person’s shoulder, INSTEAD, after a day of introduction to the industry, facility and process, they can train themselves, and jot down questions as they come up. Your valuable time and tasks are protected. No need to put two worlds on hold. Both positions function and, in the end, minimal time and money was spent on training.RETIRE: And when it comes time to sell your company and trade all those hats for sunglasses and flip-flops, having procedures in place will make your company more valuable when it comes time to sell it.
