    85 Brooke Duffy: Scale Without Burning Out...and Stop Holding Everything

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode of Delegate to Elevate: Get Sh!t Done, Bonnie Schutz sits down with Brooke Duffy, a go-to-market and revenue leader who helps B2B SaaS and services companies turn growth ambition into clear, repeatable execution. Brooke shares what it really takes to scale without burning out ...including the difference between delegation vs. fully handing something off, why the hardest clients are often the ones who won’t delegate, and how “Subject Matter Experts” can become a secret weapon for messaging, alignment, and trust inside a company. And yes ...we go beyond business delegation too. Brooke tells the story of the best delegation decision she ever made at home (hint: it involves a housekeeper and instant relief). If you’re a founder, leader, operator, or professional service provider trying to grow while staying human, this one will hit. In this episode, you’ll learn: How Brooke makes growth repeatable in scaling companies Why clients who won’t delegate create a lose-lose situation How SMEs help align teams and strengthen sales + marketing How to use your network to support clients without doing it all yourself Why delegating isn’t only about time ...it’s also about peace of mind The leadership nuance: delegate, but stay connected to outcomes (“trust but verify”) Get your D2E Swag Here https://delegate2elevatepodcast.com/merch/ Find us on: Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@Delegate2ElevatePodcast Website: https://delegate2elevatepodcast.com/get-shit-done/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/delegate2elevate-podcast/ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2VHbhXUP4NXsbF4FvCPEuF Find Your Service Pro https://preferredservicepros.com Keywords: #Productivity#Delegation#Outsourcing#Productivity#Leadership   #Viral

    80 Brittany Drozd: The “20 Percent Off Your Plate” Hiring Audit

    Send us Fan Mail What happens when you build a business with your spouse... and you both want to be in charge? In this episode, Brittany Drozd breaks down the real keys to making it work: role clarity, swim lanes, weekly leadership meetings, and how a simple contract can protect your relationship and your business. We also get into a practical “capacity audit” you can use with any team member: identify what’s not getting done, what’s stealing weekends, and what they wish they could stop doing. That list becomes the start of your next job description... and a smarter way to grow without burning people out. If you’re delegating for the first time (or recovering from a hire that went sideways), Brittany shares a trust-building framework that expands responsibility without micromanagement... plus a reminder every founder needs: there’s no playbook, so stop trying to do it all alone.

    79 Ashley Dodge: Delegation Isn’t Always a Hire… Sometimes It’s Automation

    Send us Fan Mail Ashley Dodge is the founder of Some Startup in Colorado, a marketing consultancy for founders, authors, speakers, and creatives building something meaningful. In this episode, Ashley and Bonnie get real about what delegation can look like when you’re a solopreneur, especially when you’ve been burned before. They dig into a concept Bonnie calls a “first” on the show… delegating temporarily. Think: bring in a pro to set something up, clean it up, create the system, then dip out once you can run with it. Ashley also shares why visibility matters more than most founders realize, including the “old website copy” problem (yep, Google still thinks you do that thing you stopped doing years ago). Then we go practical with tools and automation, including a Calendly workflow nugget that can save serious time and reduce email back-and-forth. If you want more momentum with less mental load, you’re going to love this one. 🔗 Podcast home: http://delegate2elevatepodcast.com/ 🔗 Subscribe on YouTube: @‌Delegate2ElevatePodcast 🔗 Find Ashley: Your Creative + Strategic Partner | Some Startup in Colorado #Productivity #Delegation #Entrepreneurship #Systems #Leadership Get your D2E Swag Here https://delegate2elevatepodcast.com/merch/ Find us on: Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@Delegate2ElevatePodcast Website: https://delegate2elevatepodcast.com/get-shit-done/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/delegate2elevate-podcast/ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2VHbhXUP4NXsbF4FvCPEuF Find Your Service Pro https://preferredservicepros.com Keywords: #Productivity#Delegation#Outsourcing#Productivity#Leadership   #Viral
