#213: Don’t have an SOP… Start Here.

About this episode

The episode discusses how to start building Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for businesses to ensure clarity and consistency.

If your business stopped tomorrow, could someone else step in and run it? In today's episode, we’re breaking down how to start building SOPs in a way that actually feels doable, not overwhelming. We’re sharing how we document our processes at Duo, from refining your offers and writing out every step to turning those workflows into repeatable systems your team can follow. We also talk about email templates, internal “how-to” libraries, and why SOPs are one of the biggest unlocks for growth, even if you’re still a team of one. Because the goal isn’t perfection, it’s creating clarity, consistency, and a business that doesn’t rely on you for every single decision.
