Starting in my family business. Any advice on what to do, what not to do?

[Varun]

Hello everyone,

My family owns a small business in consumer electronics(retail). My long-term goal is to automate it so that it can be a proper Fastlane venture. It fulfills every other criterion in the framework.

However, it has only been 3 days since I joined. Presently, I've just been told to observe sales and told a couple of things about general functioning. I'll also be getting involved as a salesman and in every other facet of the business to learn about it.

What are the things I can do to expedite this process, apart from things such as deliberate practice mentioned in TMF and Unscripted ? Looking to learn more efficiently.
