    MYB115: Stop Working Harder - How to Structure Your Business to Run Without You
    2025/11/27
    In this episode of the Max Your Business Podcast, hosts Ben Fewtrell and David Carlin unpack why working harder is rarely the answer to scaling a successful business. If the thought of doubling your customers makes you panic because you'd just be working twice as hard, then your business structure needs a rethink. Ben and David use a great fishing analogy to explain why technique beats brute strength every time. They introduce a game changing concept called the "Four Machines" framework. This is all about moving away from people based job descriptions and moving towards function based outputs. It is a shift that allows you to step back, systemise, and finally build a business that works without you constantly turning the gears. If you feel like you are the bottleneck in your own business, this episode will give you the clarity you need to restructure for real freedom. Episode Highlights: 00:00 – Welcome to the Max Your Business Podcast 02:47 – The fishing analogy: Why technique matters more than muscle in business 06:30 – Introduction to the "Building Your Business" module 08:50 – Why traditional job descriptions often fail and how to think about "roles" instead 12:50 – The Four Machines Framework: Lead Gen, Conversion, Client Fulfillment, and Business 16:15 – Shifting your mindset from managing people to managing machines 19:00 – The importance of "Output" over activity 21:20 – A real world example: Where does an estimator actually fit in your structure? 26:45 – How to systemise your sales process by cloning your top performer 32:40 – Details on the "Building Your Business" course and a special 50% off offer Key Takeaways: Technique Over Effort: Just like sport fishing with light gear, running a growing business requires better technique, not just heavier lines and more effort. Think in Machines, Not People: Stop building roles around specific people. instead, view your business as four distinct machines (Lead Gen, Conversion, Client Fulfillment, Business) and define what each machine needs to produce. Focus on Output: It doesn't matter how your team achieves a result as long as the system is followed and the required output is met. This removes the micromanagement of daily tasks. Structure Before Hiring: Before you hire another staff member, define the functional role within the machine. This ensures you are hiring for a specific outcome, not just a list of tasks. Systemise for Consistency: Whether it is answering the phone or closing a sale, document the process your best performer uses so the rest of the team can replicate that success. 🚀 Special Offer: Ready to implement this structure?

  • MYB114: How to Stop Working In Your Business (And Finally Get Free)

    MYB114: How to Stop Working In Your Business (And Finally Get Free)
    2025/11/20
    In this episode of the Max Your Business Podcast, hosts Ben Fewtrell and David Carlin tackle the single biggest reason business owners stay stuck: a lack of solid foundations. Ben kicks things off with a story from his recent diving holiday. While he was completely switched off, another business owner on the same trip was stuck taking calls. The difference? It isn't luck; it's a decision to build systems that allow for true freedom. Ben and David unpack the common excuses ("no one can do it like me" or "it's too hard to train someone") that keep you trapped. If you're tired of being the bottleneck, working in your business instead of on it, and dreaming of a holiday where you don't have to check your email, this episode is your starting point. Episode Highlights: 00:00 – Welcome to the Max Your Business Podcast 02:44 – Ben's holiday story: The difference between a "lucky" owner and a "stuck" owner 08:08 – It's not luck, it's a decision to build your business differently 10:26 – What are foundations? (The skyscraper analogy) 13:36 – The very first step: Making the decision (The Mindset Piece) 18:18 – Disabler #1: "I don't have time" (and how to find it) 19:44 – Disabler #2: "I don't have the money" (getting control of your cashflow) 20:40 – Disabler #3: Not having a written plan 22:38 – The vital question: "If you couldn't do your job tomorrow, what would happen?" 26:10 – Introducing the "Building Your Foundations" course 33:30 – The transformation: What happens when you get this right 37:12 – Get your special 50% off discount and promo code Key Takeaways: Freedom is a Decision, Not Luck: The business owners who have freedom (like taking a real holiday) chose to build their business that way. Stop Being the Bottleneck: The belief that "no one can do it like you" is the very thing holding your business back from scaling. Control Your Time: You do have the time (about an hour a day); you just need a system to find it and dedicate it to working on the business, not just in it. Cashflow Control = Peace of Mind: Knowing your numbers, like your break-even point and cashflow forecast, removes financial stress and allows for better sleep and strategic decisions. A Plan Isn't a Plan Until It's Written Down: You need a documented plan to stay focused and strategic, rather than constantly being reactive. You Must Go Back to Go Forward: Most businesses skip the foundation stage to chase revenue. To truly scale and get your life back, you have to go back and build it properly. 🚀 Ready to build your foundations? Get 50% OFF the Building Your Foundations course for a limited time.

  • MYB113: Stuck in the "Doing"? How to Systemise and Reclaim Your Time

    MYB113: Stuck in the "Doing"? How to Systemise and Reclaim Your Time
    2025/11/13
    In this episode of the Max Your Business Podcast, hosts Ben Fewtrell and David Carlin challenge the "busy" trap. If you're constantly feeling like there aren't enough hours in the day, working after dinner, or stuck on tasks you know you shouldn't be doing, this episode is for you. Mastering delegation is essential to building a business that doesn't rely on you. Ben and David unpack why it's so hard to let go (hint: it's a habit), the critical difference between delegating and abdicating, and how to use systems to confidently hand over responsibilities. They explain how to delegate to systems, AI, and your team to finally get your time back. Episode Highlights: 00:00 – Welcome to the Max Your Business Podcast 02:42 – The number one reason you don't have time (and why it's a trap) 04:06 – Why we hold on to tasks we shouldn't be doing 06:22 – The $250k opportunity cost of spending 5 hours a week on emails 08:17 – The key to successful delegation: Systemize it first 08:45 – Warning: Are you delegating or abdicating? 09:40 – The challenge of separating your role as Owner vs. General Manager 12:33 – Focus on outcomes, not on how "busy" your team looks 18:56 – Delegating to systems and AI (not just people) 20:34 – How to beat "decision fatigue" 21:44 – Download the free workbook: The 4 steps to delegation Key Takeaways: Busyness is a Habit: Feeling "busy" is often a sign you haven't learned to free up your time. To change it, you must first make a decision to delegate. Calculate Your Opportunity Cost: What is your time really worth? Doing low-value tasks (like sorting emails) could be costing you hundreds of thousands in lost opportunity. Systemize First, Then Delegate: The key to delegating with confidence is to systemize the task first. This gives you (and your team) trust in the process. Don't Abdicate: Never just "dump" a task on someone. Effective delegation is a step-by-step process that requires checking and training. Delegate to Systems, Not Just People: You can delegate tasks to technology, tools like Trello, or AI to reduce your mental load and fight decision fatigue. 🚀 Get your free workbook, "Gain Control and Feel Confident to Delegate," at maxmyprofit.com.au/delegate.
