Scope:

A business manager is a human that manages all of the business stuff about the business. Think paperwork and money management, and compliance and spreadsheets, marketing you know the “business stuff” they teach us in business school.

Essentially everything that is not your core product or service is run by the business manager.

IE: Marcus founded a pottery business that sells handcrafted plateware to high-end restaurants. Marcus doesn't like managing all the business stuff so he hired Spencer to do all of the business stuff while Marcus focuses on the creativity of building pottery and training the ceramicists to make the plateware. Marcus still owns the business and he reviews all of the business choices with Spencer having the final say.

Figure This Shit Out

You’re working on a project and you need someone to bounce ideas off of, hold an outside perspective, keep you accountable, keep you focused, and smack you upside the head when you’re acting up.

Cost: $180/month

I’ve managed 100+ people in my carea. Some of them where like children and need constent tending and attention without the ablity to problem solve, self manage or self regulate.

Others I could give an end goal to and know that they would get me there. I world fire them at an end task and be able to forget about it because I know we’d get there. I’m the second type.

“I just need to figure this shit out.” I’ve heard that from 100 executives which was often accpendied by hair pulling. Wther our a mom who want’s to teach paliaties classes in your basement or an big bucks excuative I can help you acutely “figure that shit out.”

When I work as your business handyman, I'm essentially here to get a specific task done for you. That can be a one time project that just needs to get over the finish line like finding an export partner to Poland or it can be a reoccurring task like making sure the bookkeeping is updated monthly or the annual review process is on tack.

Scope Of Work

You delegating a specific task. A specific outcome that you want. This is an a project that you want manage. This is an a strategy that needs to be created. This isn't a system that needs to be structured built implemented and managed. This is one specific task that you want accomplish and your delegating it to somebody else to get it done for you. and you'r delegating it to somebody else to get it done for you.

Why Me:

I’m A Generalist: There are 20,000,000+ people online right now that would be glad to do work for you. Many of them have skills and expertise that I don't have. The reason people hire me is I am a generalist I understand all the pieces and how they fit together and I can get things done, which require a multidisciplinary knowledge.

One Guy: It's also way easier to just have one guy who gets stuff done for you than to manage a collection of different vendors, who do different things and need different amounts of information at different times. Believe me I've done it. I much prefer to pay an office manager $75,000 a year to just get everything done for me then pay 10 different people $5000 a year and then have to manage all of them.

Overloaded: sometimes you're overloaded and there's an important and urgent task that needs to get done. Instead of kicking yourself for not getting it checked off the list just handed to somebody else to solve for you.

Emotional Cost: there are four internal resources that every entrepreneur needs to realize they have, and then manage appropriately.

Mental Engegy: this is what you use when your doing difficult math or analyzing multiple options. It's your tradtional IQ.

Emotional Engergy: this is what you use when you're having a difficult conversation which is emotional. When you're firing somebody or you just got a huge client to sign a contract for a big amount of money.

Time: there are only 24 hours in a day. You need to sleep you need to eat and you need to do other things in your life. You have a limited amount of chronological time and you need to manage your appropriately.

Life Fourc: call it Chi, call it, universal energy, call it Reiki. Call whatever you want but there's something in the vibes category which you can run out of. Sometimes your mojo is on point and everything's running well and some tasks. Just empty your Lifeforce out.

If your task requires mental energy, then you might wanna hire a topic expert to solve the problem for you.

If your task requires emotional energy, then you might want an emotional support buddy there or the ability to have somebody else do the dirty work. It's actually kind of hard to delegate emotionally difficult tasks as a good leader.

If your task requires time, then you wanna look to just flat out delegate that sucker. Find somebody else who can do the task for you or help you do it more efficiently. They don't have to be a genius to get it done. You just need somebody to get it done. You can often hire a VA or somebody to do this for you.

If your task, just saps your soul, empty your tank, Zyro you out then this task is either something which is triggering your trauma and you wanna work with your therapist to resolve that or you just need to give it to somebody else to solve. This is often the work that I do with clients. They possess the mental energy and knowledge on how to do their monthly bookkeeping. It's not necessarily emotionally triggering although it can be to see the state of the finances. They can create the time because it only takes 90 minutes to reconcile their books. But for some reason, they will put it off indefinitely for months or even years because it's takes so much Lifeforce energy that they just don't have to give.

there are four internal resources that every entrepreneur needs to realize. You have your mental energy you have your chronological time and then you have your.

I'll be the first to admit that I'm not the right man for most team or most people.

There's also 30 million virtual staff members out there that would be glad to work for you! That’s Amazing because you can someone with the hard skills, soft skills, communication style and work calture that connects with you.

My goal is to be the most potent version of Spencer, which allows me to be ultra-effective with clients who connect with my style. That goal of potency means I actively repel lots of people who don't prefer this style of work, which is my intentional goal, not an unfortunate byproduct. I'm here to be the most effective "Spencer" there is, not to be the most marketable commodity.

I'm candid and I don't hold back punches. I call shit - “shit” when I see it. I'm direct, honest and straight to the point - right to the heart of the mattter. There's no beating around the bush. There's no ambiguity. There’s no vagueness for the sack of social graces.

I do all of this from a sense of caring and love and support, and will certainly be talking about your emotions. But if you want to be coddled, babied and treated like a celebrity, call somebody else.

I've often been compared to a personal trainer, or a drill, sergeant, or a bulldog. And it’s also common to hear “Spencer you’re one of the few people I trust to not blow smoke up my ass.”

I am very kind in that I advocate for your best interests, and I want to see you win. But I'm not necessarily nice and polite giving you the warm fuzzies and I really don’t care if you “like me” or not. I’m here to be effective not get you to like me.

You’ll always know exist where I stand and what I think

Business is a lot of work. There's a metric ton of work to get done. And I know how to get things across the finish line. I've spent thousands of dollars hundreds of hours and most importantly accumulated many many failures in my career learning how to maximize the amount of work I can get done both independently and as a team leader.

So often I hear from my clients that they don't lack good ideas, nor do they lack clarity on what to do next. Rather, they just lack the ability to get things implemented and crossed off the to do list.

I've built businesses from scratch, I held the largest amount of clients. When I was a consultant, I bought a house, gutted it, and renovated it from scratch, and I know how to prioritize, teach myself, and use deep work to get project checked off the list.

After 2100 clients in 300 industries over the course of 15 years doing work in all seven functional areas of business I know how all of the pieces work together. I know how different industries do it and I know how the entire systems run. That means I know how all the pieces go together and I'm working from the entire picture. Not just my individual Department.

I'm the general contractor constructing the building I'm not the plumbing crew. They know how to install a 4 inch cast iron expansion joint in a steam line while they sleep and I'd have to Google it.

This means I bring outside knowledge to your project breaking the echochamber of industry insiders. I connect the dots and play the entire game with you instead of one little corner.

"I'm sure we can figure it out."

I've trained my brain through 18 years of meditation, three different residential programs at Buddhist temples, and thousands of pages of journaling to find the solution and not get stuck on the problem. I'm going to get it done. I'm going to make the win. This can be done, and we will figure it out.

That tenacious belief that we can figure it out empowers me and powers our relationship.
