Why we picked it Before automation tools existed, Carpenter dug his answering-service business out of chaos by seeing it as a set of documented systems. It is the deepest version of your answer's closing point: name an owner and write down what triggers what. Read it to build the habit of documenting processes, which is what makes any later automation survivable.
