Most businesses are 6 months into a mistake they haven't noticed yet.
The team is busy. The budget is moving. Work is getting done.
But nothing is compounding.
Here's why: problems are being solved in the wrong order.
Marketing gets hired before messaging works. Systems get built before there's a repeatable process. Teams grow while positioning is still unclear.
The Result? Capable business owners burn through their money, not from lack of talent, but because nobody showed them the sequence.
There's always 1 problem that, when solved first, makes 10 others disappear. At Well-Oiled, we call it the Golden Domino.
How to find yours in 10 minutes:
Question 1: The Brain Dump Write down the 5 problems keeping you up at night.
Question 2: The Leverage Test. For each problem, ask: "If I solved THIS problem first, how many others become easier or vanish completely?"
Question 3: The Dependency Check Ask: "What has to be true BEFORE I can solve this effectively?" If the answer is "nothing," you found it. If the answer is "I need X first," X is your Golden Domino.
Question 4: The Hiring Clarity Test Ask: "Would solving this make my next hire 10x clearer?" If yes, it's strategic. If no, it's just tactical.
The problem that passes all 4 filters is your Golden Domino.
When we implemented this framework at Well-Oiled, everything changed. We stopped burning budget on solutions that couldn't work yet. Teams stopped redoing finished work. Momentum compounded instead of stalling.
The difference between a $500K business and a $2M business isn't effort. It's sequence.
Swipe through the carousel for the full Golden Domino Framework, real examples of wrong sequence versus right sequence, and how to never miss your Golden Domino again.
Then come back and tell me: What problem are you solving right now that might not be the right first move?
♻️ Repost if you're ready to build a revenue-generating business.
