What all of them lacked was a trained support staff who could cover for them at all times; they were all forced to constantly monitor their businesses.
Why Tutorials Matter for Business Owners
What all of them also lacked were tutorials and training modules.
We felt for all of those entrepreneurs b/c we used to be in their same boat until we started banging out detailed tutorials … for pretty much every aspect of our business.

Most business owners train by explaining things and then walking away and hoping everything gets done properly. It never works: (1) trainers cannot remember everything there is to say; (2) trainees cannot begin to retain all those verbal instructions; and (3) the instructions have to be repeated over and over with every new hire.
Businesses need tutorials to function, and owners need tutorials to free themselves from constant monitoring.
