Unstuck: How Solving Problems Quickly Can Transform Your NDIS or Allied Health Business

May 14, 20252 min read

Introduction

In the disability and care sector, business owners wear many hats—and it's easy to get caught solving the same problems over and over again. But what if the biggest growth opportunity isn't a new client or a fancy system... but fixing what’s already not working?

Getting unstuck isn’t about luck. It’s about focus, clarity, and action. Let’s dive into how solving problems fast will drive momentum and impact.

Section 1: Identify the Real Problem

Most issues aren’t what they first appear. “We need more clients” could actually mean “Our marketing isn’t clear.” “We’re drowning in admin” might point to “You’re doing $10 tasks.”

✅ Tip: Get brutally honest—what’s the actual problem beneath the surface?

Ask:

What am I dealing with repeatedly?

What is this costing me (in dollars, energy, missed opportunity)?

What would “solved” look like?

Section 2: Break It Down to First Principles

Don't just accept problems at face value. Break them down like Elon Musk planning a rocket launch:

🚀 What’s the actual structure of this problem?

🛠 What are the raw pieces?

👤 Who can own each part?

This approach helps you find smarter, cheaper, faster solutions.

Section 3: Delegate and Own It

Problems persist when no one takes ownership. That might be you right now—and that’s OK. The good news? You don’t have to do it all yourself.

👩‍💻 Virtual assistants

🧠 Team champions

📲 Software with support

Ask yourself: Who is best placed to own this?

Section 4: Test Before It’s “Perfect”

Perfection is the slow lane.

💡 Done is better than perfect.

💬 “80% done is 100% freaking awesome.” — Dan Marel

Get your system, process or content out there. Then refine.

Section 5: Your Growth Is Waiting on the Other Side

Solving problems isn’t admin—it’s innovation. It saves you money, lifts staff morale, and shows your leadership.

The speed at which you solve problems? That’s the speed at which your business will grow. 💥

Conclusion

Whatever’s blocking your growth right now—it’s solvable. Not always overnight. But piece by piece, with ownership, clarity and a solid process, it gets done.
