Could Your Staging Business Run Without You for 30 Days?
What would happen if you disappeared from your staging business for 30 days—and your team couldn't call, text, email, or send a carrier pigeon to get your help?
In this episode of Staging Sips, Lori shares a powerful story from an Accelerate client whose operations manager went on vacation and, instead of handing everything back to the owner, trained another team member to step in and confidently take over.
That's the kind of delegation that creates real freedom in a business.
Lori breaks down why hiring the right people is only part of the equation, how we can unintentionally train capable team members to depend on us, and why letting go often requires just as much development from the business owner as it does from the team.
You'll also hear about the 30-Day Challenge, a simple exercise to uncover exactly where your staging business still depends on you—and where your team may be capable of far more than you've allowed them to prove.
WHAT YOU’LL LEARN FROM THIS EPISODE:
- Why delegation doesn't end when you hand off a task
- How owners accidentally become the backup plan for everything
- Why your team needs opportunities to make decisions without you
- The mindset work behind truly letting go
- How systems like Harlowe can help information live in the business instead of in the owner's head
- The 30-Day Challenge you can use with your own staging business
Because the goal isn't absence.
It's optionality.
The ability to work in your business because you want to be there—not because everything stops when you're not.
