What is an SOP? 🧐
An SOP (or standard operating procedure) is a recipe for your business procedures.

Here's what we'll cover:
00:00 - Introduction: SOPs and Salad Dressing
01:35 - What is an SOP (or Standard Operating Procedure)
02:21 - Pro Tip: make sure the expert is not writing the SOP (stick with us, it makes sense, we promise)
04:20 - Most common form of an SOP: Videos (and why we suggest otherwise)

What a great explanation of an SOP! You truly make RUclips worth searching for the term "Productivity". Keep it up, Layla!
Hey! Just getting caught up on comments🙈
I'm so happy this was helpful!
Came here looking for a salad dressing recipe and not only found a great video on SOPs but a new RUclipsr to follow! Nice work!
Haha thank you so much! So glad the content helped!
Yes; Procedure, Process, System, one can't live without the other. Thanks for this Layla.
Hey! Just getting caught up on comments🙈
I'm so happy this was helpful!
Thank you! I've realized that I already have experience creating SOPs, just without knowing it was called SOP. In my previous company, we referred to it as documentation :)
Hi! Recipe - wonderful association for our team, now I started to talk on their languages, before they didn't understand me and I was angry about that. Layla thanks dear. Greetings from Tashkent, Uzbekistan!
I'm so glad this helped! Thank you for the kind words!
Hey Layla, thanks so much for putting this video and clearly explaining what a SOP is… I am currently working on process docs and really feel happy that the approach I follow matches yours… thanks for creating great content!
Hey Simon! Just getting caught up on comments🙈
I'm so glad this was helpful!
I've never seen a easy to understand explanation like this for SOP 🙌 Layla, Queen of Business Systems & Processes 👑
D’aw! Thank you. So happy to help! ☺️🙏
Great video❤❤❤
Thanks for visiting
Layla - Another excellent video - thank you! I'm all in on SmartSuite now and I look forward to seeing more of these.
So glad you liked it! More are on the way - so keep an eye out!
You are brilliant Layla, thanks for your very valuable content 👌

I love this video. It was a catalyst for 2 really interesting ideas that are ridiculously unrelated ---- and these thoughts :
Processes built, refined & referenced by the person who will use may feel like losing control o an owner/expert, but it is actually giving the doer skin in the game and tangible accomplishment. Its not that they start from scratch they see your version. Consequently freeing yourself from a process leaves room for growth new processes & causes a need for SOP adjustment.
who doesn't want more time and opportunity to create things they like and have skill in?
lol
ending on the coat-tails of a musical analogy you made in previous video, Layla, adding more instruments to a song arrangement only works if you have people to play them..... then practice playing together and provide them sheet music to read and notate.
inspiring and way to entertaining to take notes the first time through.. its my pleasure to watch twice ;-)
Hey Keri! Just getting caught up on comments🙈
Thank you so much for sharing your insights -- this is awesome!
This video was really helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
Wow, I never considered using a recipe as an analogy for an SOP, but it's perfect! And agreed 100% on not using videos in SOPs. Much too hard to update, etc.
Exactly!! ☺️🙌
You are amazing! You explained it so well. I have an interview and I needed to know this info!
Glad it was helpful! Good luck on the interview!
@@LaylaPomper I got the job!!! Thank you so much again.
I love your videos! Thanks for so much! Saved my new company and all the chaos of starting one!
Ps: with all respect, I think you are really pretty
Glad we can be helpful to a fellow business owner. 👍
I'm only in 30 seconds and I just wanted to say I'm delighted you're about to use salad dressing as an example - This is what I need! These things explained in simpler terms! thanks Layla x
Hey! I'm so glad this was helpful!
Hi Layla
May you help to create a sop for shipping department using in the garment factory? Thank you
I'd suggest following the video. Think about your current shipping department process and write it out ☺️
French dressing, Joghurt, or Balsamic based?
He's mysteriously described it as a "Maple-soy balsamic vinaigrette". It really is quite good!
What's the best way to post an SOP in the clickup board? I have client lists instead of folders (trying to push to creating client folders but RN they're lists...) but want to make sure the SOP is easily accessible but not necessary to have on every single task for the client..I hope that makes sense lol.
