GAPS Framework: How to Build Space in Your Business

Streamlined Solopreneur: System-Driven Processes and Automations

Ever feel like your business eats up every free moment? The truth is, you don’t need Taylor Swift-level fame or Hormozi-style hype to succeed. What you actually need is space—room to create, promote, and step away without guilt.

That’s why I use the GAPS framework: Gear, Automations, Playbooks, and Support. It’s the system that helped me reclaim 10–12 hours a week, even during one of the busiest summers of my life. In this episode, I break down how you can use GAPS to stop fighting with your tools, cut the manual busywork, and finally get your time back.

Top Takeaways

• Fame hacks don’t apply—your focus should be on knowing your audience, creating for them, promoting, and experimenting.
• The biggest bottleneck isn’t knowing what to do—it’s finding the time to do it.
• Gear: Invest in reliable tools so tech doesn’t slow you down.
• Automations: Use tools like Zapier, Riverside, and Notion to handle repetitive tasks.
• Playbooks: Create simple SOPs so you or anyone else can follow the same steps every time.
• Support: Delegate to a VA, editor, or even students—don’t try to do it all yourself.
