One way to be better than your competitors

Nearly everyone in business has competition. Unless you sell stuff that no one wants. Stuff like lemonade sandwiches or tickets to a Chiefs game. Consequently, you’re probably always trying to think of new ways to be better than your competition, so that customers choose you as their vendor.

There are a bunch of ways to do this: better service, lower prices, higher quality, faster output; you name it and someone in your industry is probably trying to be the best at it. However, one thing that doesn’t come up often is internal processes. If your internal processes are more streamlined than your competitors’ internal processes, that means you CAN deliver quicker. It means you CAN charge less. It enables you to provide what customers want from their vendor. When you get automation happening in your internal workflows, you become better than your competitors.

What’s a workflow at your company that would make your competitors jealous if it was automated?
