The simple "to-do" list may be one of humanity's oldest tools for getting organized. But checklists are also proving essential in many modern-day workplaces, from operating rooms to the cockpits of jumbo jets. As part of our summer You 2.0 series, we explore the power of the humble checklist to help us stay on track and focus on what's important, particularly when pressure is intense and the stakes are high.

We love a system here at The Property Hub, and this week Rob & Rob discuss the advantages of setting up basic processes (and in some cases more detailed processes).

Rob and Rob discuss why systems are not boring - honestly, stick with it, we guarantee you will be a convert. 

The Robs also give examples of how they use processes throughout their businesses, for the tasks that are done over and over again. 

We also discuss how having good processes allow you to outsource and why you must not outsource without them.

Systems are easier to set up than you'll thing and in this episode we give you some examples of how to do it and how you can implement processes in your property investment journey.
