Are you planning to bring a new team member on board? Before you start interviewing candidates, there's critical groundwork that needs to be laid. In this episode of Rooted in Revenue, hosts Susan Finch and Lany Sullivan walk you through the essential steps to prepare your business for a successful hire. From mapping out processes to setting up the right tech stack, they share practical advice drawn from years of experience working with business owners. Learn how proper preparation not only makes onboarding smoother but also sets your new team member up for success from day one. Lany's 5 steps: Assess business needs and identify gaps - Analyze what tasks you dislike or don't bring value, determine inefficiencies, and decide whether you need a fractional, part-time, or full-time person. Clarify roles and responsibilities - Create a detailed scope of work outlining specific tasks, required skills, and what success looks like in the role. Map out processes and document workflows - Create comprehensive documentation of all processes so the new hire doesn't have to ask questions, allowing for improvements and innovations constantly. Set up tech and systems for success - Ensure all tools, access levels, communication channels, and documentation are properly prepared and organized. Prepare training and onboarding materials - Develop a structured plan for the new hire's first days and weeks, including who they should go to for different questions and establish decision hierarchies.

Welcome to a special series on Rooted in Revenue, where we're documenting something extraordinary happening in Southern Oregon's Rogue Valley. Today we're kicking off our coverage of an innovative women's business accelerator program that's transforming lives and businesses in the region. We're sitting down with the four remarkable women behind this initiative: Arin Fugate, who transformed a local networking group into a thriving community; Lisa Manyon, a global marketing strategist and content expert; Angelica Owens, a business strategist specializing in delegation and authentic sales; and Lany Sullivan, a systems and growth expert who helps tie it all together. What started as a casual monthly meetup has exploded into a 2,000-member strong community of women supporting women, and now they've launched an intensive business accelerator program called, "The Accelerator." Over the coming months, we'll follow the journey of their first cohort of 16 participants, documenting their transformations, challenges, and successes. This is more than just business education – it's about breaking down barriers, challenging money mindsets, and creating a sustainable model for women's economic empowerment that starts at the local level but has global implications. Stay with us as we begin this journey, starting with our conversation with the four visionary women who brought The Accelerator to life. Learn more about the Elevated Networking Society here.

Join Susan Finch and Lany Sullivan in this eye-opening episode of Rooted in Revenue as they dive into the crucial topic of intellectual property. Discover what IP really means for your business, how to protect your creations, and why holding someone's intellectual property hostage is a major business faux pas. Whether you're a content creator, business owner, or working with contractors, this episode offers valuable insights to help you navigate the complex world of IP. Disclaimers: Lany and Susan are not giving legal advice and are not attorneys. They are sharing what they have learned from their experiences and that of their clients. Tips/Recommendations: Lany: Intellectual property includes anything you create, not just patents and trademarks. Consult with an attorney about protecting your IP through trademarks and copyrights. Include clear IP ownership clauses in contracts with contractors and clients. Don't put sensitive intellectual property into open-source AI tools. Susan: Be cautious when using services like Fiverr for logos - ensure you get vector files and ownership rights. When rescuing clients from IP hostage situations, try to hear both sides of the story. For creatives, consider retaining copies of client files as an archive, not to hold hostage.

Are you a service business looking to grow your presence in your local community? In this episode of Rooted in Revenue, hosts Lany Sullivan and Susan Finch explore the power of in-person community building for both personal and business growth. Lany shares her experience with the Art in the Garden event, showcasing how community involvement can open doors to unexpected opportunities and relationships.

Lany and Susan offer practical advice on joining local organizations like the Chamber of Commerce and Rotary Club, and the benefits of serving on nonprofit boards. Discover how building a strong foundation of community relationships can support your personal and professional growth. Learn why showing up authentically and helping others can lead to a thriving, connected business community. Key points from this episode: Lany emphasized the importance of showing up in person, building community, and participating as a human with other humans rather than just communicating online.  Lany got involved in a community event called Art in the Garden to promote her property for weddings and events. She connected with many people in her community through this event.  Lany and Susan discussed how participating in community activities and helping others allows unexpected conversations and connections. It breaks down walls between people.  Lany built her community roots by joining the Chamber of Commerce and Rotary Club and serving on seven nonprofit boards when she first moved to Grants Pass. This laid the foundation for strong community relationships.  Susan encouraged people to find groups and activities aligned with their interests, whether hiking, antiquing, gardening, etc. Showing up consistently builds community.  Lany advised that when getting involved in community groups, be yourself, show up, and be willing to be vulnerable. Most groups are welcoming to new people.  Susan challenged listeners to be present, do some "peopling," and focus on in-person connecting rather than just online networking.

Lany Sullivan (@LanySullivan) is an event planning and event execution expert. Some would call her the Event Magician over at Events By Lany. As a sister refugee from the world of finance, she's able to balance the larger business goal with all the nitty gritty details and negotiations that make you cringe. She has successfully produced, executed and managed event marketing ventures for companies such as: Jeep, Disney XD, NBC, American Airlines, Kraft Foods, Wall Street Journal, AIDS Health Foundation, and many more. Today, she works with international coaches, consultants, speakers and authors who want to get their message out using events, but don’t want the hassle of managing all of the logistics. And this is just Lany's work cred! In this conversation, Lany and I also chat about how losing everything in a market crash and caretaking for two family members paved the way for her to change careers and become a digital nomad. This lifestyle allows this super connector to plan events all over the world and hang with her vast network of friends, family, and contacts in real life. Lany will share how she made that leap as well how she keeps the day-to-day together. Your career is stagnating, or worse, imploding. You're navigating a huge career leap and feel a little freaked-out. Then, a family member gets sick. And you've wondered how you're going to put your life back together again. Meet Lany Sullivan.
