Running Your Household Like You Run Your Business

Every business I work with has a systems problem before it has a growth problem. Most households have the exact same problem — nobody's written down what actually keeps the house running. This is a lighter one: no legal document, just the operating manual for your home.

Not legal, not an emergency document — just a practical reference so recurring bills, maintenance, and subscriptions don't live only in one person's head.

1. Recurring Bills & Due Dates

One per line: what it is, roughly when it's due, how it's paid.

2. Home Maintenance & Vendors

Recurring upkeep, and who you actually call.

3. Subscriptions & Memberships

What you're paying for on autopay — worth a look at what to keep vs. cancel.

4. Warranties & Manuals

5. Household Contacts

Who to call for what — plumber, electrician, insurance agent, HOA, pest control.

6. Anything Else (optional)
