Stop running your business from memory. Build systems that run without you.

If your team (or you) is constantly redoing work, answering the same questions, or putting out small fires all day, your issue isn’t effort. It’s missing operational clarity.

In this 30-minute SOP Strategy Session, we’ll identify what’s creating friction right now and map a clear first step so you can build consistency fast.

Led by Vicky Barto — 25+ years in HR, leadership, and operations

Feeling Overwhelmed By the Day-To-Day?

Most solo entrepreneurs and small-business owners aren’t struggling because they lack talent — they’re struggling because their business relies on memory instead of systems.

If this feels familiar:

  • You’re constantly putting out fires

  • You repeat the same tasks over and over

  • Nothing feels consistent

  • Your process lives in your head

  • You’re exhausted from reinventing the wheel

  • You know you need systems… you just don’t know where to start

You deserve operations that feel calm, clear, and repeatable—not chaotic.

What We’ll Accomplish Together

During your SOP Strategy Session, we will:

Review your Solo Operations or Small Business Operations Readiness Assessment results
Identify the top 1–2 processes causing friction
Map out your first SOP (live, together)
Create a simple next-step plan to streamline your operations
Give you clarity on where to focus your time and energy
Answer your questions so you know exactly how to move

forward


Think of this as your operational reset.

You’ll walk away with clarity, direction, and a plan you can implement immediately.

What You'll Get

  • Your mapped SOP (bullet steps)

  • Your priority list (what to systemize next)

  • Your next-step plan (7–14 day quick wins)

This Session is Perfect For You If....

  • You’re a solopreneur or small business owner who’s wearing too many hats

  • Things feel scattered, inconsistent, or overly dependent on you

  • You’re spending too much time on repeat work and follow-ups

  • You have team members, but tasks still bounce back to you

  • You want SOPs, but you don’t know what to document first

  • You want your business to run smoothly without micromanaging everything

This is not for businesses looking for a generic SOP template pack with no guidance. This is for leaders who want a clear, customized path forward.

After Your Strategy Session, You’ll Walk Away With

Because “winging it” is not a scalable business strategy, no matter how talented you are.

After Your SOP Strategy Session, You’ll Walk Away With

  • A clear picture of what’s breaking down in your operations right now

  • Your first (or next) SOP mapped out—not “someday,” but started today

  • A simple workflow you can implement immediately to reduce friction

  • A prioritized plan for what to systemize next (so you stop guessing)

  • More confidence and less stress because you finally have a direction

  • A path toward consistency, structure, and ease as you grow

What the Session Looks Like

This is a 30-minute, collaborative Zoom session focused entirely on your business.

  • No fluff

  • No complicated jargon

  • No pressure to buy anything

Just clear guidance and actionable support from a leadership and systems expert.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long is the session?

30 minutes. Focused, actionable, and efficient.

What if I already have some systems?

Great. We’ll identify what’s working, what’s missing, and where to streamline so your team can follow the process consistently.

Is this a sales call?

No. This is a working session to clarify what’s happening and map your next steps. If you want help implementing after, I can share options—but there’s zero pressure.

What do I need to bring?

Just your assessment results (if you have them) and a quick overview of where things feel messy. That’s enough to get traction.

What if I don’t have any SOPs yet?

Perfect. We’ll identify what to document first so you start with the highest-impact process.
