Building a business can feel overwhelming, and it's easy to fall into the trap of thinking that more systems and tools will solve all your problems. But what if that's the wrong approach? Having built and sold a business for a $180 million exit, I've learned that shiny new tools are often just a distraction.

In this video, I'll share three things you need to consider before adding another system to your business. We'll talk about why you should always understand your process and do things manually first. I'll also explain why a single source of truth is crucial and why tool-hopping and data silos can lead to chaos and frustrated customers. Finally, we'll discuss the real cost of change and why a new system needs to offer a massive return on investment to be worth it.

If you want to build a business that is truly valuable and sustainable, you need to simplify and focus on the real problems, not just add more complexity.
