| 0:00.0 | Most business owners can't leave their business for eight hours without everything breaking, |
| 0:03.6 | but in 30 days, I'm leaving for Europe for eight weeks. And if my business can't run and grow without me there, that I didn't actually build a business. I built a freaking job. Now, the crazy part is, this isn't my first time doing this. For the last three years, I've spent my summers traveling through Europe while building Action Academy into an eight-figure company. and from the outside, it probably looked like freedom. |
| 0:23.2 | But behind the scenes, |
| 0:24.3 | I was still attached to the business every single day. Constant techs cause problem solving |
| 0:28.9 | while I was physically in Europe, but mentally still at work in my own business. So this year, |
| 0:34.7 | I decided something had to change. Instead of just working remotely from |
| 0:37.6 | Europe, I became obsessed with operationalizing our business at an entirely different level. |
| 0:42.3 | Real leadership, real systems, real accountability, real ownership. And so we spent nearly |
| 0:46.2 | a thousand million hours rebuilding how this company operates from scratch. Because this isn't |

| 1:05.9 | to make sure that this will be possible. Let's get into it. System numero uno that we built that probably took |
| 1:14.1 | the longest for us to get right is building clear ownership and accountability systems. |
| 1:19.9 | All right. So when you run a business, you need to think about it in the context of you need a |
| 1:24.4 | chest to poke and a throat to choke for each and every function of your business. |
| 1:28.6 | What do I mean by that? I mean, if you have three people that own your sales function and your |
| 1:34.1 | sales data, you have three people that own your fulfillment data and you have three people |
| 1:38.0 | that own your marketing data, there's not one person that actually truly owns it. So if multiple |
| 1:42.8 | people own a function of your business, |
| 1:45.0 | nobody owns a function of your business. |
