STOP THE INFORMATION OVERLOAD
You don’t need more general courses & memberships; you need eyes on your business from someone who has been there, a clear action plan tailored to YOU, and support with implementation.
Because it’s just too overwhelming despite all those courses & memberships that you’ve invested in that told you exactly how to copy another designer’s processes to grow to a 6-figure design studio.
Maybe you’ve even thought about quitting because it feels like your business has taken over your life…
You didn't start your business to be consumed by it, to have it feel like any other job where you're just trying to get through the tasks for that day and to get so stressed that you can't seem to wind down even when you're not working.
All you want is to stop working evenings & weekends to make your design clients happy and, have more time for your family, and have the mental headspace to be more present.
But you keep hitting these roadblocks.
You've been in business for a while and feel like your business is running you, not the other way around.
You want to make more money, but you're maxed out on capacity (time, energy & mental capacity).
You know that if you pay some attention to the back end of your business, you'll be able to go to the next level, but you need to know where to start.
You struggle with keeping track of your finances and setting financial goals.
You lack the time or know how to set up workflows and client management.

HI, I AM STEPHANIE
I'm a wife, a dog-mama, an explorer and a Scotland-based mentor and brand strategist for brand and website designers who built a business as a self-taught designer after 6+ years as a business analyst and pricing manager (and managing a 65-million revenue portfolio for a Fortune 500 company).
While working as a designer I noticed that many established brand & website designers are overwhelmed and are feeling uncomfortable with the strategic and numbers side of their business and struggle to grow their business and increase their revenue (and profit) without working more.
And you don’t break a person away from creating action plans to streamline processes and increase revenue and profit so easily. So now I –
Bring this corporate experience into the creative world to teach established yet overwhelmed designers to step into their role as a CEO.
Help them transform their business to be more profitable and sustainable through a proven 3-step framework.
And serve up custom strategies based on their business, vision and this-is-enough-for-me-goals
… all in an era of feeling pressured to become a 6-figure business owner and one-size-fits-all approaches to growing a business.
When I am not developing the best strategies for my clients you can find me hiking with my husband and border collie Robbie, curled up on the couch with a book or exploring Africa with a 4x4 with a rooftop tent.
Are we a great fit?
Choosing the right coach for your business is important, so let’s ensure we are a great fit.
We’re a great fit
+ I am ready to finally feel confident in myself as a designer and a business owner, and I am ready to do the work, even if it’s uncomfortable, to get there.
+ I am ready to put my trust in an expert, trust the process, and understand that all of the work we are doing together is aimed to fit with my business, my goals, and where I am right now.
+ I might want to outsource parts of my business at a later stage, but right now, I want to invest my time and money in learning everything that comes with having a sustainable design studio.
+ I have been in business for a couple of years and while I don’t have enough inquires and revenue coming in I have worked with clients.
We’re not such a great fit
+ I don’t feel comfortable when it comes to numbers, systems, or processes, and I am not sure if I am ready to spend time on things that I really don’t like.
+ I don’t know if I am ready to trust an expert. I am taking courses and workshops all the time and just want to copy what I like from all of these educational resources. I just need some help to put it all together.
+ I know I need to take the business side of my design studio more seriously, but in all honesty, I just want to be creative and have someone else manage the rest of the business for me as soon as possible.
+ I just started my studio, am still deciding my services, who I want to work with and don’t have experience working with clients.
Not sure which service is best for you and your design studio?
Simply fill out the form below, and we’ll figure it out together.
“I was struggling to understand ClickUp and how it could impact our design agency.”
I knew that I needed the longer-term investment of handholding whilst I worked through all our processes. And now I am much more confident and I am excited to put my learnings and ClickUp set-up into practice with future clients.
The setting up of Dashboards within ClickUp has been a huge gain. Being able to point my colleagues to a dashboard that will answer all those little questions that they keep asking me has already taken a load off. Having a new customer tell me that whilst our approach was the friendliest of all she had received, our structured work plan was also the most professional.
Stephanie is worth every single penny and more. You may think you are working with Stephanie on one part of your business but you'll find her knowledge and insight will far out way just that one problem and solution. And the little videos when I was facing something niggling between our sessions were invaluable!
