Welcome to INNsider Tips.

I have mentioned in the past that you have to think of your property as a franchise and that your operations manual is your first property model.

Today's tip is how to start thinking of your property model as a systems-dependent business, not a people-dependent business.

Your system, your operations, has to work flawlessly, even without you. Every possible detail of your business system will be first tested and scrutinized intensively in your property model.

"There will be no detail too trivial, you will have to pay attention to all the little things."

And then what you should soon begin to realize, is that you are now working on your business and not on it.

"Your life and business are two totally separate things."

Continue watching, reading or listening and I'll explain what considerations will you have to take and factor when working with a first property model...
