Beschreibung

Most business owners doing $500k+ aren't short on revenue. They're short on time. Working 50-60 hour weeks, answering Slack messages all day, double-checking the team's work, chasing data across six different softwares that don't talk to each other. In this episode I break down the exact process I'd run on your business to get 20 hours a week back: eliminate, delegate, automate. In that order. Most people get it backwards and end up automating chaos. I also cover the donkeys, horses and stallions framework for figuring out which team members are costing you hours, why you should hand over outcomes instead of tasks, and how I took a full month off my own business with a newborn at home and nothing broke. What's covered: 0:00 – Why 20 hours a week back isn't an exaggeration 2:00 – Where the hours actually hide (it's the invisible stuff) 4:30 – Donkeys, horses and stallions: which team have you got? 6:30 – Eliminate first: the tasks nobody should be doing 7:30 – Delegate: hand over outcomes, not tasks 8:40 – Automate last: AI agents, reporting, systems that talk 10:00 – Done-for-you vs being taught how (why busy founders never implement) 11:30 – What would you actually do with the extra time?

Ep125: The Hidden 20 Hours You're Losing to Admin

You're probably working 50 to 60 hours a week. But here's the thing, around 20 of those hours are going straight to admin. In this episode, Matt breaks down exactly where that time is disappearing and what to do about it. Here's what's covered: The real cost of doing your own admin. At $100 an hour, 20 hours a week is $100k a year in lost time. Most founders have no idea. Real business examples. A studio owner with disconnected free software, an NDIS provider doing everything manually, and a franchise broker wasting hours on emails from people who were never serious buyers. The automate, delegate, delete framework. A simple way to figure out what to hand off, what to systemise, and what to cut completely. Why a VA might be the easiest win. For $4 to $6 an hour, most of the basic stuff on your plate can be handled by someone else today. If you're drowning in tasks that have nothing to do with actually growing your business, this one's worth a listen. Find out how to get 20 hours/week back - https://leveragedceo.com.au/optin

Ep123: Fire Yourself - Your Team Can't Grow Until You Get Out of Their Way

You've got a team. But they're still coming to you for everything. Every decision, every question, every "just checking in." You built a team and somehow ended up with more on your plate, not less. That's not a team problem. That's a you problem. In this episode I break down why business owners stay stuck in the middle of their own team, the difference between donkeys, horses and stallions, and what it actually looks like to hand over responsibility and get out of the way for good. In this episode: * The donkey, horse and stallion framework — and why you need to fire the donkeys * Why getting out of the way isn't lazy, it's literally your job at this level * How to set up your team so they run on KPIs and stop relying on you to function Find out how to get 20 hours/week back - https://leveragedceo.com.au/optin

Ep122: The Reason Successful Business Owners Are Miserable

You're making good money. Nice holidays, business class flights, the lot. But you're stuck on your phone the whole time, missing dinners, missing school pickups, running on empty. That's not a business. That's a high-paying job you can't leave. In this episode I break down why so many business owners at the $500k to $1M mark are quietly miserable and what the actual way out looks like. It's not about working harder. It's about using the profit you've already built to buy back your time through team, AI, and systems that don't need you in the middle of everything. In this episode: -Why making good money doesn't mean you've actually made it -The trap that keeps successful business owners working 60+ hour weeks -The profit, leverage, lifestyle order and why most people get it wrong If that resonates, send me a DM on Instagram or Facebook and let's chat.
