It shouldn’t take everything you’ve got just to keep It all running.

You’ve done what most never do: built a successful, high-demand service business.

But now it feels like success is suffocating you. Your team relies on you for everything. No one does the work the way you would. SOPs? Systems? What systems? You're afraid to step away (even for a day) because deep down, you know the whole thing could fall apart without you.

This Operations Management retainer is perfect for you if…

You need someone who can actually run the back end of your business, not ask what you need help with every week.

You’ve tried delegating, but somehow, it still all lands on your plate. You don’t have the time (or patience) to manage another person who’s waiting for instructions.

You need systems that don’t depend on you to work.

Right now, you’re the glue. If you stop showing up, things start slipping. And you just wish there were tools and automations that could handle this stuff for you.

You need your team to function without your constant input.

They’re smart. They care. But work still gets missed unless you’re watching every move. You don’t want to keep re-explaining how stuff gets done, you want it documented, streamlined, and handled.

You want more space to think, plan, and build.

You didn’t start this business to answer questions all day. You want time back to lead, to rest, and to grow. Maybe you’ve got another business idea, but until this one is stabilized, you’re stuck.

Business Process Optimization

When You Book Operations Management, You Get:

✔️ Up to 30% ops cost savings compared to hiring a full-time operations manager (that’s around $5K/month back in your pocket).

✔️ A business that can grow without you managing every little thing. You’re not stuck in the weeds anymore and that idea you’ve been sitting on? You can finally build it.

✔️ A go-to person who just handles it. Someone who knows what needs to happen and makes sure it gets done without needing a meeting or a checklist from you every time.

✔️ Team members who actually know what to do — and do it. Less back-and-forth. Less fixing things. Less feeling like the only adult in the room.

✔️ Workdays that feel lighter and way less reactive. No more waking up to a mess. Just space to lead, plan, and think ahead.
