Ari Meisel on Productivity through Outsourcing and Automation
Audra Casino
Productivity is something every single entrepreneur, and aspiring entrepreneur, struggles with. Whether it’s finding time to keep your business running smoothly, or finding time to launch your business while you have a day job, people are looking for a magic bullet.
While there isn’t a way to make all your work disappear, there IS a way to make sure it gets done, whether or not you’re the one doing it.
Today’s guest, Ari Meisel, is a productivity and automation master. Using what he learned through taking back his life and health from Crohn’s disease, he put together a system that revolutionized the way he did business. While he may seem super-human, he’s got just as many hours in a day as the rest of us. He just uses them more wisely.
Plus, he designed an awesome app to tell you when you’re most productive, to make the best of your own hours.

Hey Ari,
Just downloaded the Peak Time app – how cool is this – I always think of myself as a groggy, coffee chugging person in the morning, but according to the app from 7:00-9:00 I have major skills happening. I realized – that’s true! Thanks for helping me change me perspective.
