New Blog Post: What to Delegate First: Your 3-Tier Task Map

September 16, 20251 min read

Ever sat down to delegate and stared at a blank screen? You’re not alone.

Delegation paralysis is real, but it starts with one simple thing: clarity. This post walks you through a 3-tier delegation map so you know exactly what to hand off first.

Tier 1: The Energy Drainers
These are the repetitive, time-consuming tasks that eat up your flow and add zero creative value: like formatting newsletters, managing DMs, or updating spreadsheets. You dread them, delay them, and they distract from deeper work.

Tier 2: The Non-Genius Zone
Next up: tasks you're decent at but shouldn’t
have to do. Things like setting up landing pages, managing inbox filters, and monthly reporting. Just because you can do it, doesn’t mean it’s a good use of your energy.

Tier 3: The System Builders
These are tasks that benefit from structure, but you’re not the one to architect the whole thing. Think: setting up CRMs, client onboarding flows, and automation. A skilled VA thrives on this. Once your systems are built, it saves you hours every month.

The Clarity Shortcut: A 3-Tier Filter
Ask yourself:

  • Is this draining?

  • Am I doing this out of habit or necessity?

  • Does this move the needle?

If the answer is no—it’s ready to delegate.

Delegation starts with clarity. Don’t guess. Use the 3-tier map to clear your plate and free your brain. Download the Delegate & Elevate Checklist to start mapping today.
