The Secret to Sustainability: Why You Need More Than Systems Alone to Move From Chaos to Clarity

Build a scalable business you’ll love for years to come, transform your company into a well-oiled machine, and own your role as CEO.

In order for a business to be successful, they need to get systems in place....right?

In a marketing world full of new products and quick fixes, it’s easy to believe the promise that there is a perfect system or project management tool that will instantly rid your business of overwhelm and confusion.

I can’t tell you the number of times a potential client has come to me with a variation on a common theme:

.

 ✔️ “I just need systems in my business, and then I could breathe again”. 

 ✔️ “I just need to find the perfect project management tool, and then I’ll have no problem juggling my tasks”.

 ✔️ “I just need to find the perfect system to manage my time each day, and then I’ll have the margin I need for my next project.”

Kari Poppleton

The truth is...

There isn’t one perfect system that is going to magically fix all of your operational woes.

Building a sustainable, scalable business you actually enjoy is only possible when you ditch the quick fixes and get strategic.

There's a limit to how far you can muscle along your growth

... unless you first strategically deal with the basics of what makes your business run.

 Nearly every successful entrepreneur I have ever worked with has struggled with the day-to-day operations of their business.

These brilliant, hardworking business owners exhaust themselves delivering with excellence day in and day out….without realizing that their business can only grow so much without establishing a sustainable operational foundation.

They try to keep going on grit alone, and it’s never pretty.

✔️ Their days get longer,

✔️ They spend less and less time working IN their businesses rather than ON them, and

✔️ They start to genuinely resent the never-ending work that robs them of the freedom they were chasing when they started their businesses

At some point, they all have tried building a system or two, or hiring another random team member, or randomly increasing their prices with no idea if they were profitable.

But these were all like separate corners of a jigsaw puzzle...only a few pieces put together here and there makes it incredibly difficult to pull together the entire picture. 

And I knew there was a better way to bring everything into focus…

It's time to liberate your time and your profits
(and wave goodbye to team & SOP overwhelm) with a...

Systems Kickstart Intensive

Establish a solid operational foundation so you can build a team and systems with a 6-hour intensive (split over two consecutive days) that will transform your operations and set you on the path to sustainable team & business growth.

Fall head over heels in love with your business as you move from chaos to clarity and own your role as confident CEO.

By the end of the Intensive, you'll...

Rediscover the joy and freedom of running a business (that doesn’t run you!) and go to bed at night without the weight of your to-do list threatening to crush you.

I got into business because I am a visionary. I have big ideas and that’s where I am the greatest asset to my business. Things like systems & operations, although critically important, are not where I want to be spending my time and NOW I don’t have to spend more time than I need to on these things.

Since Kari and I have finished working together I have been able to start a podcast and a YouTube channel, I have had weekends off, I doubled my gross monthly revenue, I hired a team AND I got my time & my creativity back! 

If you are feeling stuck in your business like I was and you know yourself well enough to know that the back end of your business will never get organized by you…I highly recommend hiring Kari. It was by FAR the best investment I made in 2020!

50 Tasks to Outsource

Love the idea of outsourcing, but have no idea where to start? Delegating can be at a challenge at first, so here’s a list of 50 things you could hand over to an assistant (and get off your plate for good!).

My business was growing – FAST. It was super exciting but I realized if something didn’t change, my business was going to break.

I messaged Kari and after our sessions and her playbook, I felt like I was in control of my business again.

Everything is running smoothly, my team knows what systems to follow and we’re ready to scale again.

Thank you, Kari for all your help!!

Have we met?

I'm Kari.

There is just something about entrepreneurs! They tend to be hard-working, tenacious, adaptable, and passionate about self-development. 

And most importantly? They are freedom-seekers with a huge desire to positively impact their clients and/or customers. 

As a Certified Director of Operations, I am passionate about serving online entrepreneurs just like you. Helping to optimize businesses and get talented business owners out of the weeds completely lights me up!

I have worked with dozens of 6 and 7-figure business owners to help identify how to make their companies more simple, run more efficiently, and ready to grow and scale.

With extensive experience as a project manager, Director of Operations/Integrator, and coach, I love to come alongside talented entrepreneurs and support them as they aim (and reach!) their big goals.

As a mom of 3 amazing kids (and wife to a very handsome engineer!), I understand the drive needed to build a business while also prioritizing family. It can be challenging, but it’s absolutely worth it. And I’d love to help you!

Are you a perfect fit?

Before we started the intensive, I felt a little scared because I was starting to grow relatively fast and was worried that my systems weren’t ready to keep up.  Plus it’s hard finding someone who understands my business, so I also felt a little alone. 

Now I feel relieved that I have a solid action plan in place, and systems that will be able to grow with my business. 

We accomplished so much together! We set up a whole plan for hiring my first employee, which went better than I ever could have imagined. The person we’ve hired is a perfect fit for our company, and the hiring process that you recommended is what helped us find them and see their potential.

Because of your help with finding the right project management system for us, I am now moving towards the goal of getting all the tasks out of my head and making them systematized and sustainable (plus this will help to make sure little tasks don’t fall through the cracks).

And finally, you helped me make some key decisions about which services I’m going to offer in the future. As a result of these accomplishments, the foundations of my business are stronger.

Thank you for everything, Kari! You’re a rockstar!

You could keep going the way you currently are...

but for how long?

The Systems Kickstart Intensive was specifically designed to meet the unique needs of extraordinarily talented entrepreneurs whose businesses have grown faster than they ever could have dreamed.  I know you’re short on time!

Get my eyes on your business, and I’ll help you save hours each week, gain the clarity and tools you need to put out all the fires in your business, and lead with confidence as the CEO you are meant to be.

You may be asking yourself...

You bet we can! This intensive has been carefully prepared and structured to purposefully guide you through everything you need to start building a solid operational foundation for your business.

Building a consistent, scalable business requires dealing with many layers of your operations – much like peeling an onion.

It’s incredibly important to consider each of the pillars we discuss during the intensive to ensure we’re building the right systems to move you closer to the right goals –  and that those systems are truly sustainable!

You already have lots of workflows you use every day in your business, so we won’t be starting from scratch. You’ll learn how to document and optimize your systems, and then use this knowledge to better serve your people and quickly get new team members up to speed.

This is probably one of the most common things I hear from visionary entrepreneurs! I’m all about finding ways to structure your business’ back-end so it works with your personality and goals, so even if you don’t love systems, we can still bring about significant change in your business!

The short answer? Yes! Frustration with numbers typically comes from not understanding what they mean and how they can work for you. The exercise we do will empower you and give you the ability to make data-based decisions!

I think the real question is – do have time not to? Picture what your business will look like in 6 months if you don’t get a handle on things now. A small time investment now will pay massive dividends in the future. 

Get ready for a Systems Kickstart Intensive!
