Stop Being
The Bottleneck
In Your Business.

Hi, I'm Stephanie. I run the content, CRM, funnels and daily operations for wellness and real estate businesses so the owner stops doing all of it. Six years in, with live websites, funnels and automations you can look at below.

From Support Desk
to Systems.

I did not start out building funnels. I started in customer support, three years of talking to people at their most frustrated and learning how to be the calm one in the conversation.

Admin came next, then executive assistance, then social media. None of it was a career change. It was the same job getting deeper, and every layer still shows up in the work.

Now I build the systems that hold it together. GoHighLevel CRMs, funnels, email automations, websites and landing pages. When you work with me, you work with me, not a queue.

Ways We Can Work Together

Two monthly packages, built around how much support you actually need. No lock in contracts, just a simple written agreement.

The Steady Hand
$1,200 / month
15 hours per week
For founders who need someone they can hand things to and trust it gets done.

Content stays consistent. Inbox stays managed. Systems keep running on the weeks you can’t think about them.

Includes: social content and scheduling, email and newsletters, CRM and GoHighLevel, inbox and calendar, research and reporting, customer support.

Larger builds such as full websites or platform migrations are welcome. Just let me know in advance so the time can be planned properly.

Book a Call
A short call, no pressure. We work out whether it is a fit.

Good to Know

Is there a contract?
Yes, a simple written agreement covering scope, payment and confidentiality. Nothing complicated, and no long lock in.
How does billing work?
Invoices are issued on the 15th and 30th of each month, payable by Wise, PayPal or direct bank transfer.
Do I need to pay anything upfront?
A $100 USD deposit secures your start date. It is deducted from your first fortnightly invoice.
What are your working hours?
I work 6am to 6pm Philippine time, Monday to Friday. That gives full overlap with Australian clients and covers the afternoon and evening for most US teams. If a call needs to sit outside those hours, let me know ahead of time and we can arrange it. Otherwise I plan work to finish inside my day, which is how deadlines stay predictable rather than rushed at midnight.
What can I ask you to do?
Anything within your hours. Content, admin, CRM, funnels, automations, websites, customer support and reporting. If you need a funnel built, I will build it. For larger projects, just give me some notice so the time can be planned properly.
What if I don’t use all my hours?
Hours are weekly capacity rather than a bank, so they don’t roll over. It keeps your support steady week to week.
What if I need more hours?
Extra hours can be added, or you can move up a package at any time.
Can I start smaller and upgrade later?
Most clients do. Packages can change month to month as your needs change.
How quickly do you respond?
Within one business day, usually sooner. Urgent items are handled the same day where possible.
How do we stay in touch?
Email, Slack or WhatsApp, with tasks tracked in Trello or whichever tool you already use.
Is my information secure?
Confidentiality is written into the agreement. Logins are stored securely and access is never shared.

Still thinking about it?

Once a month I send one short note on the systems, funnels and automations I am actually building for clients. No pitching, no fluff. Unsubscribe whenever you like.

One email a month. That is the whole promise.
