Here are the episode highlights from my conversation with Ryan Weiss:
1. Pivoting Business Model Due to COVID-19 - Ryan Weiss initially started EPS as a consulting company, but the impact of COVID-19 forced him to pivot his business model. He transformed EPS into a company that offers a software platform and outsourcing team to help clients streamline their processes, document them, and outsource where necessary to improve efficiency and effectiveness.
2. The Pitfall of Siloed Process Documentation- According to Ryan, the biggest problem he observes in companies is that processes are often documented within departments rather than across departments. This leads to inefficiencies, lack of streamlining, and poor handoffs between departments. Ryan emphasizes the importance of breaking down these silos and creating processes that work effectively across the entire organization.
3. The Impact of Streamlined Processes on Employee Well-being and Company Growth - Implementing streamlined processes can have a profound impact on both employee well-being and company growth. Ryan shares a case study where a client doubled their revenue and throughput after streamlining their processes. Additionally, employees experienced significant improvements in stress levels, clarity of roles, and work-life balance. This highlights the importance of having clear lines of accountability, responsibility, and understanding of expectations between departments.
4. "Optics" Book: A Guide to Process Improvement - Ryan's upcoming book, "Optics," serves as a guide for companies to understand their processes, identify pain points, and implement the EPS system. The book provides a step-by-step process that enables companies to self-implement the system, making it accessible to a wider range of businesses. The EPS software platform will also soon be available as a software-as-a-service (SaaS) model, allowing companies to utilize the system independently.
5. Lessons Learned: Consistency, Quality, and Continuous Improvement - Throughout his entrepreneurial journey, Ryan has learned the importance of consistency, quality, and continuous improvement. These lessons have been evident in his experiences, such as starting a podcast and being recognized as one of USA Today's top ten emerging entrepreneurs. Ryan emphasizes that consistently working on improving oneself and one's business, like going to the gym, leads to better results over time.
