Description

Notebook of a COO is the daily playbook for small business owners who are tired of being the bottleneck. Hosted by JT Taylor MS, MBA, an operator and fractional COO, each short episode breaks down the systems, delegation, hiring, cash flow, and operations moves that let your business run without you living inside it. Real frameworks, plain language, no fluff. If you own a job instead of a business, this is the show that hands you the operating system to fix it.
