Where owners get stuck

Sound Familiar?

“I'm doing everything myself.”

Inbox, invoices, scheduling, follow-up. It's all on you, and it doesn't have to be.

Delegated Administrative Support ↓

“I need more clients.”

In 2026, referrals will only get you so far. To stay competitive, you need a clean website, engaging marketing, and a strong sales strategy.

Marketing & Sales Strategy ↓

“I don't have all the skills.”

You don't have to do it alone. I bridge the gaps so you can focus on doing what you love, and we co-manage your growth together.

Co-Management Collaboration ↓

The businesses that make it stabilize first, then scale slowly.

Fast growth on a shaky foundation breaks the foundation. So we fix what's underneath first: the systems, the follow-up, the way people find you. Then we grow it at a pace that holds.

Services

Three Ways We Work Together

TIER 1

Delegated Administrative Support

“I'm doing everything myself.”
What you get
  • Your inbox and calendar handled and current, off your plate
  • Invoicing and CRM run so nothing slips and nobody gets missed
  • Quotes, contracts, and intake forms prepped before you need them
  • Scheduling, reminders, and follow-up that happen on time without you chasing them
  • Recurring admin routines that keep running whether or not you think about them
What it's costing you now
  • Every hour on admin is an hour not spent on the work only you can do
  • A quote that goes out Thursday loses to the one that went out Monday
  • The busier you get, the worse this gets. Growth makes it harder, not easier, with an admin load that keeps you up until midnight and makes the next day unbearable
Starting at $60/hr

TIER 2

Marketing & Sales Strategy

“I need more clients.”
What you get
  • Everything a customer sees when they search you, fixed and kept current
  • Branding and positioning that sounds like you, not like a template
  • Content planned, produced, and published, not a strategy document you'll never run
  • Marketing strategy, plus the hands to actually implement it
  • A sales process from first inquiry to signed, and a CRM built around how you really sell
What it's costing you now
  • Referrals only carry you so far, and they're the first thing to thin out in a slow year
  • No Google Business Profile presence means you lose sales to your competitors
  • Content compounds. Posts you make this month are still working next year, and the months you skip never come back
Starting at $85/hr
Book A Call →
TIER 3

Co-Management Collaboration

“I don't have all the skills.”
What you get
Everything in Tiers 1 & 2, plus:
  • A full read of the business: operations, marketing, money, and where it's actually bottlenecked
  • Systems and processes built and documented, so they hold without either of us
  • Financial backend strategy: pricing, margins, and cash flow
  • Vendors, contractors, and projects coordinated, so you stop being the switchboard
  • Co-managed execution on the big things: launches, events, and the day to day
What it's costing you now
  • Bottlenecks don't announce themselves. They quietly cap what the business can do
  • Growth on a broken system breaks the system faster
  • Every year of undocumented process is a year you can't step away from, sell, or hand off
Starting at $110/hr

I take 4 clients at a time and book 3 to 6 months out. When the calendar is full, I will place you in the next available seat.

Two things you can buy right now, no call required. Each one stands on its own, and the audit comes off your first invoice if we end up working together.

$97

Digital Footprint Audit

An in-depth report of exactly what a stranger sees when they search you: the good, the bad, and the competition.

What you get
  • Every place your name shows up: your website, Google Business Profile, social accounts, Yelp, and the old pages you forgot were still live
  • What a stranger actually sees, searched the way a customer types it, not the way you'd search yourself
  • The competitors sitting next to you in the results
  • What's helping you and what's costing you, marked plainly, no jargon
  • What I'd fix first, ranked in order. Not a list of everything that's wrong, a list of what matters most
What it's costing you now
  • Everyone who meets you looks you up afterward. A keg stand photo from college damages your reputation more than you realize
  • An empty or wrong Google profile costs you calls you'll never know you missed
  • Old pages don't age out on their own. They keep ranking until somebody takes them down
  • Reviews compound. The gap between starting now and starting in three months never closes, it just gets wider
  • You can't fix what you haven't looked at, and most owners have never actually looked

This is the report on its own. If you want a plan built from what it finds, that starts with a free discovery call, and your $97 comes off your first invoice whenever you sign. After checkout I'll ask you a few quick questions about your business, and your report follows 2 to 3 business days after that.

Marketing Optimization Workbook

The same system I use with paying clients, written so you can run it yourself.

What you get
  • Four modules in the order they should be built, so you're never guessing what comes next
  • Your Google Business Profile claimed, verified, and filled out the way Google actually rewards
  • Your personal Facebook and Instagram turned into something that works for the business, without turning your feed into an ad
  • A straight answer on whether you need business pages at all. Most people don't, and building one you'll abandon is worse than not having it
  • The 18 posts that make a page worth finding, with the caption formula for each one
What it's costing you now
  • An empty profile costs you customers every week, whether or not you're posting
  • The order matters. Doing it out of order is the most common reason owners start this and quit
  • A personal profile full of weekend pics and no mention of your business is a missed introduction every time somebody looks
  • It's the same system I run with paying clients, for a fraction of what those hours cost
  • The foundation doesn't expire, but the months you spend without it don't come back

Every module ends with a customer test, so you can check your own work the way a stranger would find you. No ads, no promises about page one, no filler. Delivered by email within 2 to 3 business days.

How It Works

Built From What Your Business Actually Needs

No one-size-fits-all packages. Your plan is scoped from the work itself. Retainers run 90 days, invoiced monthly, with a standing block on my calendar reserved for you.

1. Free Discovery Call

30 to 45 minutes on your business: what's working, what's stuck, what needs help, and what would make the next 90 days a win. This is also where I evaluate whether we're aligned and would work well together.

2. A Focused Look

After our call, I review what you shared against what I actually offer, so I only recommend what you need. This is usually where I suggest the Digital Footprint Audit. Seeing how your business is perceived online lets me build you a sharper plan, and the $97 comes off your first invoice.

3. Your Custom 90-Day Roadmap

A custom 3-month proposal with weekly goals, built from your online presence, your priorities, and our call. At the end of the contract, we re-evaluate and discuss continuation or completion. Either way, everything we build belongs to you.

Working together

Are We a Good Fit?

The Captain and The Navigator

You're the captain. It's your business. You set the course, you make the calls, and you carry the weight of it.

I'm the navigator. I know the water, I read the instruments, and I tell you where to turn.

That's the whole relationship. It works because you're the owner of the boat.

What I Promise You

I'll tell you the truth, even when it costs me money.

If what you're about to buy from me isn't what you need, I'll say so. If someone else is a better fit, I'll give you their name.

I get inside before I make a plan.

The real answers live inside the business, working alongside you and your team. A call tells me where to look. The work tells me what's true.

The work belongs to you.

I build things you can run without me. Systems, strategy, and skills that stay when the contract ends.

We're probably a good fit if…

  • You're already carrying your business. You don't need rescuing or saving. You need support, and you know the difference.
  • You know your zone of genius. You're excellent at the thing you do, and ready to delegate what isn't in your wheelhouse or bogs down your day.
  • You'd rather have a straight answer than a comfortable one. I'll tell you what's helping and hurting your business, and you'll be able to receive feedback and implement new strategies as needed.
  • You're available to dive in. While I don't need much of your time, I will need some of it to move tasks forward. Your capacity to collaborate is there, and you're prioritizing your business's success.
  • You have a growth mindset. It takes grit to build a business. The owners who make it believe in themselves and what they sell, and they treat setbacks as feedback rather than proof. Hard years happen. What matters is what you do next.

We're probably not a fit if…

  • You want someone to carry the weight of the business with you. I'll carry the roadmap, but the responsibility of the ship stays with the captain. If what you need is someone to share the mental load itself, that's a partner or an operator, not a consultant.
  • You want a guarantee. Building a business takes time and requires consistent, repetitive processes. There is no quick fix, and no one can promise you an outcome. I can promise you systems, strategies, and a roadmap that will take you there if you commit to it.
  • You want the lowest price. My pricing reflects decades of experience, an expansive skill set, and a deep knowledge base. I don't do quick fixes or sloppy strategies.
  • Everyone who's worked with you so far has let you down. Sometimes that's bad luck. But if it's a pattern, I'd only become the next name on the list, and neither of us wants that.

If you read this and thought “that's me,” let's talk.

However, if you feel hesitant, I'd still like to hear from you, and I'll tell you honestly whether I'm the right call, or if I know someone who is.

About

Hi, I'm Alexis.

“If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.”
— African proverb

Before Nevada County, I spent years working directly under presidents, founders, and CEOs, learning how to build, run, and scale businesses from the best Marin had to offer.

Now my roots are here, because this is where I'm raising my son, River. Since 2012, I've worked inside local businesses of every kind: solo entrepreneurs and established companies, across nearly every industry this county has, from retail, restaurants, and nightlife to construction and wellness.

Here's what I've learned: local businesses don't stall for lack of talent or hard work. They stall because the owner is trying to do it all themselves, and one person simply can't.

That's where I come in. I work hands-on, inside your business, building the systems, strategies, and momentum that free you up for the work only you can do.

As an entrepreneur myself, I care about your business like it's my own. No corporate playbooks. No jargon. I customize your roadmap to maximize your strengths, support your shortcomings, and set you up for success.

What Local Owners Say

“I would not be starting a business if it weren't for Alexis. As someone with a creative mind full of ideas, I get overwhelmed when it comes to planning and strategizing — that's exactly where Alexis has come in. She's helped me turn my ideas into real, tangible, attainable steps, and she keeps me accountable while also keeping me excited and inspired to push forward. I was overwhelmed and didn't think I could do it before I hired Alexis. Now I feel confident my business is going to succeed.”
Juliette Witous · Founder, Fairweather Treasures & Jules No Rules

Questions Owners Ask

How do we start?
With a free discovery call. 30 to 45 minutes on your business, where the pain is, and what would need to be true in 90 days for you to call it a win. Within 2 to 3 business days you get a recap and a recommended plan. No pressure, no obligation.
How does working together actually work?
Clients work with me on a 90-day retainer: a flat monthly fee, invoiced on the 1st and paid in advance, with a reserved standing block on my calendar every week. You always know when I'm in your business and what I'm carrying.
What does it cost?
Every plan is custom. Your price depends on the tier of services you need, what that first look turns up, and the 90-day roadmap we build from it. Work is priced hourly by tier, starting at $60/hr, on 90-day renewable contracts. Most clients land under $2,000 a month at 4 to 5 hours a week. Before you commit, you'll see honest hour estimates for every piece of the work, so you always know exactly what you're paying for.
What happens to hours we don't use?
Up to 20% of a month's hours roll into the next month. And if work is heading beyond scope, I flag it before it's ever billed.
How do we work together, remote or in person?
A collaborative mix of remote and onsite. Day to day, we work side by side in your business: shared inboxes, calendars, and project tools, with regular working sessions during your reserved weekly block. And when the work calls for being there in person, whether it's a launch, an event, or a walkthrough, I'm right here in Nevada County. You always know what I'm carrying and where things stand.

Let's See If We're a Fit.

A few questions so I arrive at our first conversation already knowing your business. Takes about 3 minutes. I read every one myself, and I'll be in touch within 2 to 3 business days.

Thank you for your order.

One more step. Tell me where to look and I'll get started. Your report follows 2 to 3 business days after this.
