SOP Verified
SOP Protocol 01

Communication Architecture & Team Channel Protocol

Est. Time: 5 Minutes • Direct low-friction alignment eliminates bottlenecks
Workplace Chat

Add your dedicated assistant and InCrest account leadership into your existing team communication workspace to establish a permanent, asynchronous collaboration channel:

Channel Setup Action

Create a dedicated workspace channel named #ops-increst-va in Slack or Microsoft Teams and invite your Assistant ([VA Email]) and Account Manager.

Daily 9:00 AM Standup Format

Every morning at 9:00 AM (client local time), your assistant submits a concise status update:

  • 1. Priorities: Top 3 operational outcomes targeted for today
  • 2. Deliverables: Tasks, reports, and tickets resolved yesterday
  • 3. Blockers: Active questions, inputs, or approvals needed from you
SOP Protocol 02

Secure System Provisioning & Access Delegation

Est. Time: 10 Minutes • Zero plaintext passwords across email or direct messages
Credential Security

Follow standard credential access protocols across your operational tooling stack to maintain bilateral NDA and data protection compliance:

System Category Target Applications Standard Provisioning Action
Password Manager 1Password / LastPass / Bitwarden Share an invited vault access with restricted privileges. Never transmit master or raw passwords via text.
Email & Calendar Google Workspace / Office 365 Provision alias address (e.g. admin/assistant@yourco.com) or delegate inbox review access.
Task Boards Notion / Asana / ClickUp / Trello Invite assistant email address as a workspace team member or project guest.
CRM & Helpdesk HubSpot / Salesforce / Zendesk / Intercom Assign standard Tier-1 operational seat permissions for ticket triage or pipeline cleanups.
SOP Protocol 03

Day 1 "Quick-Win" Selection & SOP Authoring

Est. Time: 5 Minutes • Transfer one high-frequency bottleneck to build momentum
3-Minute Rule

Avoid drafting comprehensive instruction manuals before delegation. Select one recurring bottleneck from the categories below:

Inbox Zero: Tagging, triage, priority routing
Calendar Defense: Scheduling & buffer blocks
CRM Hygiene: List enrichment & data updates
Customer Care: Answering standard FAQ tickets
The 3-Minute Delegation Rule

Record a quick screen capture using Loom or an audio memo walking through the task once. Share the link in #ops-increst-va. Your assistant converts your recording into a step-by-step Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for your sign-off.
