Robert Patin - Eliminate Complexities So You Can Simplify and Scale

In this week’s episode of the SIMPLE brand podcast, I talk with Robert Patin.

Robert’s an international best-selling author and he’s the founder of Creative Agency Success, a consulting firm dedicated to helping creative agencies scale. And he’s the host of the Agency Blueprint podcast. Robert and I discuss lessons on how to take your team’s operations from complex and out of hand to a simple, scalable machine. A machine that helps you ultimately have more time to focus on the right work to move your business forward.

If you want to simplify and make things much smoother for you and your team, this episode’s for you.

Some of the topics we discuss include:

• Giving your team space and frameworks to solve problems is much more valuable than solving problems for them
• Our desire to be immediately responsive causes us to complete work 5x-10x longer than necessary
• The approaches to work that drive complexity across most teams
• How you can accomplish more by focusing on doing less
• The steps and framework to take to eliminate complexity from your team
• The ideal method for delegating work to others
• The value of videoing all of your processes as processes documentation
• Your processes have typically been put together by everyone else except for you
• Connecting with community outside of your business can help you learn how to simplify
