Scaling a business isn’t just about selling more—it’s about building the right systems to support growth. Without structured operations, even the most successful businesses hit bottlenecks, lose efficiency, and struggle to scale. Joshua Monge, founder of Think. Adapt. Build., reveals how streamlining workflows, automating processes, and documenting key operations can be the difference between a thriving business and one that stalls. Whether you're looking to optimize efficiency or prepare your business for long-term success, this episode will challenge how you think about scalability and sustainability.
What’s stopping your business from scaling? It might not be your product, your marketing, or even your sales—it could be your operations. Many businesses run on intuition, muscle memory, and outdated systems, making it impossible to grow beyond a certain point. The solution? Better processes, automation, and structured workflows.
In this episode, Joshua Monge, a fractional COO and business operations expert, shares how documenting processes, streamlining workflows, and leveraging automation can transform how a business operates. He also dives into a major challenge facing today’s business owners: succession planning. As Baby Boomers retire, many small businesses risk closing their doors because they are too dependent on the owner to function. Joshua explains why every business should be designed to run without the founder—and how that shift can increase efficiency and business value.
