Hey there,

Today, we’re going to talk about how you can build your own Fulfillment System…

So you can focus on the work you’re best at - and delegate the rest to your team.

This is mostly focus on service based but if you have by any chance an information based business i will also give insight on that.

So let me break everything down for you.

What does the term “Fulfillment” actually mean?

Fulfillment is simply the process of delivering goods or services to your customer.

The goal of the Fulfillment system is simple:

Deliver your service as quickly & efficiently as possible (somewhat similar to Fedex lol 😜 )

Let's dive in!

5 Simple Steps To Build An Efficient Fulfillment System

You probably spend ~80% of your time doing fulfillment or maybe don't even have a system in place to do so.

It’s where most solopreneurs get trapped.

If you can build a Fulfillment System to remove yourself from parts of the process, it’s a game changer.

But here’s the thing…

Everyone’s Fulfillment System will be different, because everyone’s business is different.

The good news?

My 5 step process can be applied to any business.

And once you build it, the system takes over.

Now, let’s dive into the framework.

1. Define the Key Phases of Your Project

To create your Fulfillment System, start by breaking your project process into smaller steps.

I like to begin by identifying the “Key Phases” of the project.

These are the large milestones that usually require different skill sets to complete.

For example, the 5 Key Phases my team and I go through when we’re building a one-person business setup for a client are:

• Strategy Plan (brainstorm the ideas and or approach studying others)

• Design (craft the unique most efficient process for your business goal)

• Development (start creating and building the real prototype systems)

• Launch (test the system sending people through it for data)

• Optimize (tweak and optimize specific areas for efficiencies to improve output)

2. Break Each Key Phase Down Into Steps

Once you have clarity on the Key Phases of the project, you need to identify the smaller Steps within each phase.

So using the same example from earlier, these are the different Steps that go into each Phase of a typical funnel building project:

• Strategy

  • Audience, Market, And Offer Research

  • USP and Messaging Copy Development

• Design

  • Funnel Page Designs

  • Slide Deck Design

  • Email Sequence Map Out

  • Video Editing Styles

  • Graphic Designs

• Development

  • Domains Setup

  • Funnel Setup

  • Email Setup

  • Socials Setup

  • Delivery Setup

  • Quality Assurance

• Launch

  • Functionality Test

  • Quality Assurance

  • File Handoff

• Optimize

  • Conversions (ads, leads, call or sales)

  • Close Rate (depending on offer)

  • Upsell Rate

  • Referral Rate

  • Renewal Rate

Once you have this level of clarity, you can actually start Systems-Building.

But for your own sake, please do NOT try to build the entire system at once.

Instead, you should…

3. Build Execution Systems For Each Step

Focus on building systems for each “Step” one at a time.

How to pick?

Easy - start with either the most time-consuming Step or the Step that is easiest to delegate.

There are 4 types of systems you should use at this stage:

• SOPs

• Templates

• Automations

• Tools

• Evaluation

Your goal here is to reduce the amount of effort and thinking you have to do to complete a Step.

Instead of trying to reinvent the wheel every time you take on a new project, you might have:

• SOPs that break down every step you need to take (so someone else can do it)

• A.I Automations doing the time-consuming tasks that don’t require any thinking

• “Plug-and-play” templates to create quality deliverables much faster

In my social funnel process example, the Funnel System to includes:

• SOPs that detail our process and values.

• Predesigned templates that we reuse for each new project.

• Clear KPI (key performance indicators) for each step.

4. Delegate Steps Whenever Possible

If you’ve made it this far, congrats!

Most never make it here.

You’re in the top 1% of Solopreneurs ready to design, build and launch your One-Person Business.

But you can still take things one step further.

Once you have your systems built, you can start delegating.

I recommend delegating individual Steps first, instead of a whole project.

For example…

As a one-person business funnel developer, depending on the project you could design the Landing yourself, and then delegate the Secondary Pages and Responsive Design to your developer that adds the fancy coding and all.

Or if you’re creating a brand identity, you can design the logo yourself and your team could create the brand style guide and positioning assets for the client (social media banner cover, business cards, group banner covers, posts designs etc etc.).

If you are an marketing or performance agency, its probably the case of after finishing the project you’ll have to execute step no.5 where you’ll have to optimize the campaign etc in order for the clients to get results fast.

This in return will get more referrals and more upgrades and your churn rate will be low as clients won’t want to leave you because the love getting results.

Building systems makes delegation 10x easier.

Why?

You get things out of your brain, and on to paper in no time.

All that’s left is to show your team how to use the SOPs and templates you created for them!

And that’s it for today!

The next topic we will talk about is Retention.

By the end of that guide, you’ll have a playbook to sell more to your best clients, rather than having to constantly chase new customers.

Be on the lookout for that
