I started a separate division of my business. In addition to my eCommerce side, I guide business owners (in eCommerce or any industry) to their highest goals for their business and life. - I systematize the operations of a business to provide a blend of these benefits to business owners and their team: make their lives easier, free up their time, and make more money. - I help business owners reach their vision and remove themselves from the areas of the business which they don't like (and potentially remove them completely, in time, if that's their goal).- I advise on the strategy and also implement the strategy.Accomplishments:- Helped a makeup artist achieve a 20x Return on Time Investment (ROTI) for her system for adding and sending invoices to new customers. Before, it was a 10 minute task for each new customer, now it takes her 30 seconds. - Helped a property owner with over 100 buildings systematize her system for fixing tenants repair requests to remove herself completely and free up 10 hours of her time each week.- Mentored a sports coordinator at the YWCA in this systems-focused mindset and created two scheduling charts in Google Sheets for him, which in all have reduced his daily emails by 60%. - Helped a business funding entrepreneur build out his lead capture, lead nurture, lead progression, and other CRM focused operational systems inside his business to allow him to scale sustainably and remove him from manually managing his leads.Software with Experience:- Zapier, Close.io, Clickfunnels, ActiveCampaign, GoHighLevel, JotForm, Calendly, Airtable, Kajabi, Google Sheets, Google Forms, Trello, Integromat (Make), Monday, Clickup, Typeform, Stripe, Quickbooks, Slack
