“Done for You” Consulting
Personalized partnership to complete a strategic or operational initiative.
If you are a service-based founder or business owner and need someone who can roll up their sleeves and help you get it done, you are in the right place.
Sometimes you simply need to bring in outside expertise to get something started or finally get it over the finish line. You may need some coaching along the way but you need more than a mentor and advisor. You need someone who can do the work. Whether augmenting your team or bringing in an outside team, you need someone to do it for you. Not dream about it with you or assign you a carefully laid plan that will never get done.
Some sweet spots I can help you with include (but are not limited to):
Tech
- Act as translator/go between with technical vendors.
- Define what requirements you really need from a new system.
- Research what systems meet those requirements and pro/con/recommendations that can lead to selection.
- Implement the system:
- Setup
- Create framework that will work best for them
- Document processes/procedures
- Document how to use
- Work with team to understand how to use so they can own it and run day to day
- Agree on what constitutes completion so handoff point to your team is clear
Operations
- Putting easy to use metric tracking in place so you can make informed decisions.
- Breaking your strategic priorities into an actionable project plan.
- Creating/designing/documenting processes for effectiveness and wise decision making.
- Contingency planning – creating the plan.
Team and Leadership
- Facilitation for decision making.
- Diagnosing where breakdowns are happening within a team.
Great things not only get started with me on your team, they get finished.
My approach is human first, principled, and practical.
What’s NOT Included:
- A super-fancy presentation that you spend thousands of dollars on only to realize no forward progress.
- A slick team with lots of overhead and hand-offs that radically increases the cost but not the value.
- Platform-specific recommendations based solely on the consultants preference and comfort level and not what meets your needs and work style.
- A solution utilizing the latest and greatest trends for no other reason than “everybody is doing it”.
- An expert who comes in and then ghosts you leaving you worse off than before you started.
All “Done for You” engagements are custom-priced to meet your needs.
The first step is to book a free consultation so we can get to know one another and explore if working together is a fit.
No pitch decks, no sleezy sales techniques, no pressure. Just an honest discussion, evaluation, and clear next steps.
Hi, I’m Paula G:
As a business operations coach and consultant I have helped people scale their business, find that sweet spot where growth is sustainable and life feels expansive, and reinvent their business model to align with the next evolution of their work.
My background has given me a front row seat to business operations in companies of all sizes – from solopreneurs to the complex workings of Fortune 100 companies. What I love most is working with founders and leaders of boutique size service-based businesses who want the satisfaction of a business they love and the freedom of disconnecting at the end of the day and immersing themselves in other parts of their lives that light them up.
Different by Design – grow and operate in a way that is sustainable, fulfilling, and feels right to you.
