SOPs for Seven Hills businesses
In Seven Hills workshops, depots and trade businesses, knowledge tends to sit in two or three heads: how the quote is priced, which supplier to ring, how a job is signed off, how the van is stocked. When one of those people is sick or leaves, the gap shows up quickly. We watch how work is done, then write short, plain procedures with photos or screen recordings where needed. Typical first documents are job handover, quoting, safety checks and the first-week plan for a new starter. We test each one with someone who has not done the task, then fix what is unclear. In Seven Hills workshops, even a one-page job handover sheet saves repeated questions.
The business runs on what one or two people know. New staff take months to get up to speed, tasks get done differently each time and a sick day causes real problems.

SOPs in Seven Hills: questions
Which SOPs should a small Seven Hills workshop write first?
Start with what is repeated most often or costs the most when it goes wrong. That is often quoting, job sign-off, equipment checks and induction for new staff. We pick three or four and build from there.
Our staff are busy on the tools. How do you capture the steps?
We shadow the work, ask questions on the spot, and take photos or short videos. That keeps the time cost to your team low, and the written result comes from what they really do, not a guess.
Can you meet us in Seven Hills, or is it all remote?
We can do either. Seven Hills is roughly 25 minutes from our Fairfield studio, so a site visit, a shopfront photo shoot or a workshop at your unit is easy to arrange. Most day-to-day work happens by phone and screen share.
Where do the documents live?
In whatever you already use, such as Google Drive or Notion, so there's nothing new to learn.
