&Marie Solutions

You haven’t set up those workflow automations in Asana because you’re too busy. Of course you are. That’s why I do it for you.

What's one process you touched 20+ times this week that annoyed you every single time?
That's your optimization target for this week.

Can you write an SOP? Set up an automation? Make a template? Remove a couple steps? Offload it completely?

You don’t need to hire more people, work longer hours, or find better employees.

If you’re always scrambling and coordinating and putting out fires, those aren’t ’normal business problems’. You need a better system.

No worries, friend. I got you.

What this systems agnostic consultant brings:
✅ Personalized solutions, not a sales pitch for software you hate
✅ An hour of your day back: no more relying on post-it notes on prayers
✅ Custom support for deaf and neurodivergent owners

“How did you get into systems?”

I got tired of watching people take 10 steps to do something when 5 would do.

Ok, there are other reason, but that’s the main one.

I feel like my dream clients are the service providers that I’ve availed myself of in the past. I know how to pick ‘em, I just gotta do it in reverse lol.

I’d love to build systems for the lovely work they do.

The best systems people ask the best questions:
What are you really trying to accomplish?
Who else is affected by this process?
What happens when this breaks?
How will you know if it's working?

Gotta understand context first.

Your process isn't broken if it works. It's broken if it takes longer than it should.
Before optimizing anything, time one routine task from start to finish. 2 hours? 2 days? You might be surprised.

Is there a word for the nostalgia or longing for something you can’t quite remember?

Your calendar is not a project management system. I don’t care how color coded it is.
And yes, sometimes I have to remind myself this. 😅

Automations in business that you interact with daily:

-Obsessively tracking a package on its way to you
-Getting 900 reminders about a drs appt
-Apple snatching $1.02 before you can flinch

Oh the disappointment of being full because you ate, but still be8ng hungry because you didn’t eat Right Thing™️

If you know your business deserves better, but you’ve put off getting it on autopilot because you’re ’too busy’… this is your sign.

Book our call this week.

Let’s build something that doesn’t need you to babysit it 24/7.

Myth: You need to pick the best project management tool

Truth: You need to pick the best project management tool for YOUR needs.

How? Well would you look at that… my Utterly Honest Guide to Project Management Tools blog post is one of the lovely links in my bio.

Nothing, and I say nothing, can make me clean faster than an episode of Hoarders. 😭

Let Q4 be when you book your Strategy Call with me so you can figure out which of your apps to ditch in 2026.

I had clearer skin in my teens than I ever had in my adult life. Make it make sense. 😭

On today’s episode of Bizarre Integrations: Hubspot natively integrates with Salesforce. Because… yes?

Is one slightly better at marketing and one a slightly better CRM? Enough to justify paying for both as direct competitors? Um…

It’s almost the “why do I own this many domains” time of year!! 🙃

Can you set up your ClickUp or Trello or Slack with all the automations you need? Of course you can, because you’re brilliant and you wouldn’t be running your business if you weren’t.

But you don’t wanna.
And you don’t gotta.

And that’s why you call me in to do it.

This is me manifesting more tired, determined business owners that just want a DFY systems audit and set up.

Like, the whole thing. Templates, automations, training. The works.

If signing a new client makes you ecstatic for the paycheck but horrified for the onboarding that you have to start all over again, let’s chat.

1. Map your manual process first
2. Identify actual bottlenecks (not assumed ones)
3. Test your workflow with real scenarios
4. THEN automate what works

If signing a new client makes you ecstatic for the paycheck but horrified for the onboarding, let’s chat.

☕ I delegate to my systems before I’ve even had my first coffee.
📍My 9:00 AM isn’t a team stand-up; it’s a status check while I’m still in bed.
⚙️ Systems run 80% of what I used to white-knuckle my way through.

Ah yes, the time of year where you encounter three seasons daily until all of my jackets and sweaters end up in the back of my car.

You don’t need more hustle. You need fewer decisions.

Constant, tiny, micro-decisions are burning you out.

And THIS systems-agnostic workflow consultant wants better for you: smaller tech stack, less money spent, less time figuring out where that file is… fewer decisions.

I once sarcastically reposted a LinkedIn piece on 7 ways to make yourself work harder, two of which were:
-creating artificial deadlines
-designing environmental triggers

Are we not reaching burnout fast enough for the establishment??

I’m not at inbox zero, but inbox nine feels pretty good.

Friendly reminder that you can schedule emails and even Slack messages the same way you schedule social media content.
