7-Figure Leap with Dustin Riechmann

The 4 Systems You Need to Build a Remote Team That Actually Works with Eric Dingler

28 Oct 2025

Description

In this episode of the 7 Figure Leap podcast, Eric Dingler shares his remarkable journey from summer camp leadership to building a successful digital marketing agency while traveling through 20 countries with his family of six. Eric reveals his proven framework for building effective remote teams through four essential systems: recruiting for character first, implementing self-guided onboarding (which he calls a "game changer"), creating delegation systems, and developing leadership frameworks. He discusses how becoming an "accidental CEO" through adoption transformed his approach to business, leading to the pivotal realization that "real estate agents don't build the houses they sell." Eric explains how this mindset shift allowed him to step back from client work and focus on building systems that gave him true freedom. He shares practical insights on the 1-3-1 leadership framework, how he and his wife went from being unable to work together to her becoming COO, and why "your leadership capacity is the capacity of your business." Whether you're struggling with hiring, onboarding, or delegation, Eric's battle-tested systems will help you build a team that actually works while giving you the freedom to live the life you want.### Chapters:- 00:00:00 - Introduction to Eric Dingler- 00:01:28 - Eric's background: From summer camp leadership to digital marketing- 00:05:01 - Living as digital nomads: 20 countries in 4 years with teenagers- 00:07:11 - Leadership happens everywhere: The 1-3-1 framework- 00:10:16 - How Eric became an "accidental CEO" through adoption- 00:14:01 - The turning point: "Real estate agents don't build the houses they sell"- 00:17:32 - Marriage and business: From unable to work together to COO partnership- 00:21:42 - Future business vision: Accessibility remediation and fractional CMO work- 00:24:37 - Leadership capacity is business capacity- 00:31:22 - Team building systems: Recruiting for character, chemistry, and competency- 00:35:54 - The game-changer: Self-onboarding systems- 00:42:29 - The four essential systems: Recruiting, Onboarding, Delegating, and Leadership- 00:47:14 - Building SOPs continuously with your teamLinks and Resources:Eric's Self-Onboarding Checklist: https://ericdingler.com/dustinEverything Learned Leadership Podcast: https://ericdingler.com/podcastTeam Engine Accelerator: https://ericdingler.com/acceleratorAchieve Adoption (Eric's nonprofit): https://achieveadoption.orgRecommended Project Management Tool: HiveMentioned in this episode:Get a Free Strategy Call with Our TeamGo to https://7FigureLeap.com/strategy
