✶ My business doesn’t need to rely on me constantly working to make money

✶ My team are happy and engaged because they have absolute clarity on their objectives and have everything they need to do their job to a high standard

✶ Quality is consistently top-notch because everything that the team need to do their job on time, in full and to the required standard is mapped out

This is a commonly held belief by so many of our c

This is a commonly held belief by so many of our clients, and often, they use this as a reason to put off bringing in operations experts into their businesses.

✶There can be a vulnerability when opening up the inner workings of your business to someone else, even though you know that they are here to help you.

✶The things I tell our clients when they express this concern are always the same - we would be disappointed if it was a well-oiled machine and if it wasn’t for inefficient working practices our business literally wouldn’t exist!

✶We do not judge - we have honestly seen it all and don’t blink an eye, the messier the better because the greater the transformation is for you - and we LOVE this work!

✶It wouldn’t help us to come in and see a load of processes that you have quickly redesigned to make it “look” better to us because it could hide the real inefficiencies and you won’t get as much value out of our services - we need to see how you actually operate.

✶And lets be realistic - are you going to find the time to do this? Here’s the thing, if you are already up against it with workload and you feel chaotic, you aren’t going to.

✶The truth is, you CAN be successful in your business from a financial point of view without investing in streamlining your operations. However, the larger you grow, the more risk your business carries, the larger the missed financial and growth opportunities and we always have a very busy, stressed out business owner or team (or, usually, both). It isn’t sustainable - you are standing on a burning platform.

✶If you’re ready for your business operations to go from stress to seamless, get back that head space you crave and get control back on your operating expenses, head to the link in the bio and fill in the application to see how we can help you, now booking for Q2!

I HAVE THIS THING 🙋🏻‍♀️ Spending way

I HAVE THIS THING 🙋🏻‍♀️

Spending way too much time on manual admin tasks you have a feeling you could automate?

Time to download your Zapier bundle 🎉

Wouldn’t it be nice to not spend literally hours every month performing manual and repetitive admin tasks?

Or have automations in place to speed up your client onboarding process?

Zapier has been the answer to ADDING time back into my (and my team’s!) schedule, giving me more headspace to focus on high-level tasks and creating streamlined systems that improve my client experience.

And this is why I created this template bundle for business owners who don’t know systems inside out! And I promise it will take you WAY less time to download and tweak the template than it will to watch tutorials, DIY, and hope that things run smoothly.

Gone are the days of copying and pasting data and putting off the ROI on clear, simple, and effective backend systems.

Here’s what you get with your Zapier Bundle:

→ 7 ready-made for you zap templates
→ A walkthrough video showing you how to import and → customise your new zap templates
→ Tips on how to create and build your own zaps
→ A walkthrough video on how to build your own zaps from scratch

Guess what is missing from most systems build pack

Guess what is missing from most systems build packages?

A commonality I have seen with my clients is that they need more support when streamlining their business operations and implementing tech tools. We come in and create absolute magic 💫 for them, but I totally appreciate that they can appear intimidating to operate and business owners often need more time than our project length to integrate all of the learnings and adjustments to the new and refined ways of working.

Plus it is just as important that their team understand and can fully utilise and leverage said systems (something that is often overlooked). Our training and subsequent Client Success programme is specifically designed to provide tailored support for up to 12 months after our project completion and the aim is to ensure our clients get the maximum ROI 💸 out of their investment.

We have a space for one more of our signature “Operations Overhaul” systems build in Q1

✶ Operations Overhaul: ClickUp ✶
The ultimate DFY service that creates a super scalable, stable and sustainable business structure across your entire operation.

Implementing ClickUp is the key to providing the tools for you to get out of micro-management mode, gain clarity on how to progress your business strategy and crucially, have that all-important downtime that allows you to refresh, recharge and ultimately, be better at what you do.

We aren’t just setting up tech tools here, we actually design the high-level strategy and map out the processes to ensure they align with your goals and allow you to create a business operation that feels peaceful, can be delegated without the “they can’t do it better than me” instinct and actually allows you to reach that next level with ease.

How I built a business that can generate revenue w

How I built a business that can generate revenue without me ⤵︎

✶ I am a planner. I like to plan for EVERYTHING. Which means when I was re-evaluating how my business was structured last year, one of my biggest priorities was separating it from me and setting it up to be able to operate without me. And by operate, I of course, mean make money without descending into chaos. I have personally aimed for this duration of 3 months, which feels comfortable for me, but everyone’s number on this will be different.

✶ While I am not planning to take this amount of time away from my business, I am VERY aware that sometimes life happens and the last thing I would need (or anyone for that matter) is worrying about the business while trying to focus on my personal life.

✶ I am also conscious that I am a “worker” and find it hard to rest, which during various periods of my life has brought me to the brink of burnout (who knows, it may have been actual burnout). The older I get, the less acceptance I have for this happening, which means I need to continually reevaluate the way I work.

✶ Creating a business that can operate and scale without you is incredibly freeing and brings a peace of mind like no other. It gives you SO much more headspace, which reignites the passion you have for your busness and is where some real magic can happen.

✶ If in 2023 you are looking for more freedom, to relieve the pressure and bring the calm, drop us a DM for us to have a chat about what your biggest pain points are and we can advise which of our services can help you get there.

Are you ready to build a team that consistently pe

We have new ways to support you in creating the business you dream of 🥂

One of the common themes I observed last year was that often when business owners get busy they generally equate that to needing to hire more team members. This isn’t necessarily “wrong” but what is often overlooked is that creating strategic & streamlined operations creates more time, pushing back that time frame for when hiring is needed (and saving $$$ in the process).

Plus, when that team member does come onboard, their performance is better because the operational structure gives them the tools they needed to do their job to a high standard & without the business owner’s constant oversight.

These services are all designed to set you up for success through creating a lean (a.k.a reduction in resource needed to execute) and highly effective (a.k.a increased impact) operation in a matter of 6 - 8 weeks.

With that in mind, we’re incredibly excited to introduce our new DFY “Operations Overhaul” services to our offer suite:

⇾ ClickUp Build
For the business owner that needs their brain downloaded, translated & organised (ever feel like your brain is overflowing with tasks that you need to remember to do?) but they’re not sure how - or don’t have the time - to fully leverage ClickUp to actually create a lean & streamlined operation.

⇾ Client Management
For the business owner that is ready to reduce the amount of time is takes to onboard, manage & offboard clients (by an average of about 60%) while up levelling the client experience (we’ll even create some handy metrics to allow you to measure this) and increasing retention & resign rate.

⇾ Team Management
Creating a stable & high-performing team is key for business growth - while the right team propels your business forward, the wrong one can create more work & stress. This is for you if you seem to have got busier since you hired a team, or if you know that you need to expand your team & need an effective and efficient hiring, onboarding & management structure, while giving your team all the tools they need to do their job to a high standard.
