When you’re taking a business from startup to grown up, there’s a lot of processes and moving parts to consider. So how do you grow successfully at the same time as retaining some level of control? And how do you implement large scale processes to streamline your workload and keep your business moving forward? This week Rob and JV are joined by Declan Lee, co-founder and facilitator of stuff at Gelato Messina. Declan shares insights about implementing new processes, growing from a startup to grown up, and how technology and cloud accounting have changed the face of gelato in Australia. “We make gelato. It’s really what we do in the end and it’s the one thing that we’re really really good at. I like businesses that don’t try and be everything,” he said. “Even at that high level we’ll bring in people that we just think are really good people, have some skill in the area, and then we try and work it out together.”
