Stop Losing What Your Best People Know
Build a knowledge system in 30 days that ends the constant interruptions, survives every resignation, and gets your business ready for AI.
The knowledge that runs your business lives in three people's heads, a shared drive with four folders named Final, and an email thread from 2021. Every question interrupts someone. Every departure takes answers out the door. And every vacation exposes how fragile the whole thing is.
This guide gives you four working frameworks: the Brain Drain Map to find where knowledge actually hides, the One Door Rule to give your team a single place for answers, the Two-Minute Capture to document knowledge without adding a second job to anyone's plate, and the Ask Test to keep it all current. Plus a week-by-week 30-day plan using tools you already own.
Montalvo Corp builds AI and automation systems for law firms, medical practices, churches, trades, and financial advisors. No jargon, no developer talk. Just systems that work for real businesses, explained in plain language by someone who builds them every week.
