Summary:

In this episode of #70secondCEO, Carl Gould breaks down the often overlooked “NO systems”—the internal operations that keep your business running behind the scenes. These include everything from email and payroll to HR and accounting—critical functions that don’t directly generate revenue but support the systems that do. Carl also emphasizes the importance of building and developing the right team: people who align with your company, fit their roles, and are trained for future growth. A well-aligned team supercharges both your YES and NO systems. If they’re not performing, it may be a leadership issue—your systems, your responsibility.

Read full transcript:

Hi Everyone, Carl Gould here your #70secondCEO, just over a minute of investment per day for a lifetime of results.

Then we have the NO systems. The NO systems are “No, this is not what we get paid for.” These are all the support systems that helps the technical aspects of your business run. So, your email systems, security, benefits, you know, paying all the bills, accounting, payroll, those sorts of things, HR functions, anything that supports the Yes systems is a NO system. And think of it this way. It's all the work you would have to do today if there were no customers. What would still have to be done? That is a NO system.

Third part of this quadrant is your TEAM. They have to be right for the company, right for the job, and trained and prepared for the future needs of the business. An aligned team will help you be more efficient with your Yes systems and your No systems. So think about your team for a second. If they're not right for the company or right for the job or trained and prepared for the future of the business, in the beginning, it's not their fault. It's YOURS. You haven't given them the resources or the time or the nurturing or the technical training that they need to do their job well. Take your internal clients, your customers, or sorry, your employees and work on your systems.
