Life is busy and there's just so many things to remember. What tools do you use to help you keep on top of ALL the things?
Your business automations keep things moving without needing your attention every day. If one stops while you're away, could someone else pick up where you left off?
Getting ready for the Christmas break includes thinking about those background processes. In today's Mindset Monday, Charly considers a few things that can be overlooked while everything is working.
✅ Knowing who "owns" the automation matters
➡️ Why removing a user may stop automations
⚡ Why documentation matters
⭐ Practical steps to take now
There's plenty here to consider before taking time away from your business, with a starting point that doesn't require documenting everything before Christmas.
Which automation would cause you the most trouble if it stopped working? Join Charly to think through what someone would need to help.

✅ What access and data are you handing over along with the work when someone steps in for Christmas?
➡️ Why does an email forward matter?
⚡ What does your automation keep after it’s finished its job?
⭐ What should you do when you return from a break?
