Shownotes

You don’t actually need big, complicated systems to make money in your business — and yes, I’m the Systems Professor saying that out loud. Hitting six figures and building a sustainable, ease-filled business are two very different things. In this episode, I’m breaking down what I call “bare bones systems”: the absolute minimum setup every creative business needs to book clients.

I’ll walk you through the anchor activities that matter most at each stage of the client journey, the three non-negotiables every business should have in place, and when it’s time to go beyond bare bones into a full client experience glow-up.

If you’ve been stuck thinking you need to do everything before you can feel legit — let this episode give you permission to start small and still move forward.
