Pro Tips
On the on the tool side, what I tell people is look at what you do two or three times a day, or four or five times a week and document it. Then figure out how to either automate it, or delegate it, or get rid of it if you can. But, if you’re doing it then I assume it’s important, but then does the necessarily have to be done by you.
-Wes Schaeffer
You know, look at something you do. That’s just grinding you down. That’s just redundant and if you can’t automate it then give it away.
-Wes Schaeffer
If you’re hurting for business, the problem is before the sale or it’s fulfilling and delivering a “Wow” experience after the sale. So one of
those two areas is where you’re really bleeding from the neck right now.

Historically there was a concern with this concept of automation or systems that you’re using to better serve people is that it’s removing the human element. But if carefully executed that you’re considering that the person on the other side. I mean the “LinkedIn Spammer” is not a person concerned with with the recipient of those messages.
