You need to document the procedures within your company but don’t know how to get started?

Want an inexpensive way to create a nice looking manual and have a system in place to maintain it?

Use our Operations Manual QuickStart Kit!


$49 (single-use)

The kit includes:

  • Five templates to create a full Operations Manual binder – templates are Microsoft Word files that you can easily customize

  • Our exclusive setup and instruction guide that walks you through:

    • Setting up your binder and files – includes customizing the templates, creating your computer folders to store the templates, and a proven system for naming the computer files

    • Creating procedures

    • Distributing your manual

    • Maintaining your manual – includes version control

This kit was created by Debbie Gilster, the Chief Productivity Guru here at C4GP. As a productivity consultant and professional organizer, Debbie developed these templates and the accompanying procedure system for use by her clients. She has prepared lots of manuals for her consulting clients. After multiple requests, she is now making them available to you online as a simple download so you can create your own manual. The guide is like having Debbie personally train you.

Get your manual in place for only $49. Start right now by downloading your QuickStart Kit.

Why is the product so cheap? At C4GP, our intent is to provide you with tools that make a difference for a reasonable price. We want you to be more organized and less stressed because you now have your operation’s procedures out of your head and onto paper. For the value, this product should be priced a lot more. Feel free to send us a check if you concur!

Who can and should use this product:

  • Any small business who wants to be more efficient
  • Solo entrepreneurs
  • Businesses with virtual helpers
  • Small businesses with family members who help them
  • Typically businesses with 25 or less employees
  • Someone who wants their entire business procedures in one binder

This system and the templates have been kept simple on purpose. No one, including us, likes to spend a lot of time on procedures. But…they are a necessary aspect of any business. Especially a business that wants to grow and for sure, those that want to be sold someday. We expect you to have an entry-level knowledge of Microsoft Word. We’ve added helpful reminders about menu choices within Word just in case you need them.

What is the difference between an Operations Manual and a Procedure Manual?

There is a difference. In our definition, an Operations Manual is a simple binder where all key how-to instructions and operations information are stored for a company. A Procedure Manual is a mix of policy and procedure, is more structured and detailed in format, and is typically put together at the department or functional process level. There may be a time when you need a more formal Procedure Manual like you find in a large corporation. It all depends on your company culture and growth.

An Operations Manual is a perfect, easy way to get started. Since you will have your information in Word files, you can always easily move to a Procedure Manual format in the future without retyping your information. See our Procedure Manual QuickStart Kit - available soon – if you think you need this. We suggest smaller businesses start with an Operations Manual format.
