Elevate in Life & in Business

Are you still going back and forth in emails or DMs trying to schedule appointments? Or maybe you're paying for a separate booking service without realizing you already have one built into your AttractWell or GetOiling subscription! This week, after helping several clients troubleshoot and streamline their booking systems, I wanted to share just how much you can automate and customize with tools you already have. From managing your availability and sending reminders to collecting client information and recording meetings, these features can save you time, simplify your business, and create a more professional experience for your clients.

Have you ever opened social media knowing you should probably share something, only to sit there wondering what to say?You have a product or provide a service. You have experience, ideas, and information that could help someone. But turning all of that into something to post can feel like a whole other job.

Maybe you’ve been spending time in Canva creating a workbook, a guidebook, or a collection of your favorite recipes. Maybe you have a workshop you’re ready to offer or a resource you know would help the people you serve. You’ve put the time into creating something valuable. But then comes the question: How do I actually sell this and get it into someone’s hands?

It's time to clear out what no longer serves your business, reconnect the pieces that matter, and start putting your next idea on paper. There is something about walking into a space that has finally been cleaned out and refreshed. You can find what you need. You have room to work. You aren’t looking at a pile of things you meant to deal with six months ago. I want your website to feel that way, too.

When you start talking about business ideas with your kids, the list might grow quickly or your child might look at you and say, “I have no idea.” Both are okay. As adults, we’ve seen more of the marketplace with a variety of businesses, products and services. Kids may not yet recognize all the ways people use their skills to earn money. 

Lately, a conversation with a client has me thinking about something I’m excited to explore… not only with her family, but with my own kids, too. She and her 12-year-old daughter recently attended a leadership and business event together. Her daughter came home inspired, full of ideas, and interested in finding ways to make money.

Last Friday during our Elevate Work Session, a previous client hopped on the call, and we started looking through her website together. What we found reminded me of something I’ve been noticing since getting back into more client website projects: some of the details that are easiest to overlook are also opportunities to improve how people find and experience your website.

You invested in a GetOiling or AttractWell website because you wanted a place to bring your business together. Your offers, your email list, your booking link, your resources—all working together so you can show up and share what you do. But now, even logging into your back office feels overwhelming.

If you’ve spent any amount of time watching successful digital creators online, you’ve probably started taking mental notes about their tech stacks.Stan Store. Flodesk. Zapier. ManyChat. Canva. Zoom. Maybe you’ve watched someone have a six-figure launch using that exact combination and thought, “Okay, apparently that’s what I need too.” But before you start opening accounts and adding another $29 here, $40 there and $99 somewhere else to your monthly business expenses, I want you to ask a different question:

From calmer mornings with my kids to more organized client projects, checklists help carry the mental load and make the next step clear. Here is how to identify the routines and processes that could become checklists in your own life or business.

If your clients need more than one conversation to reach their goal, it may be time to create a coaching package. Here is how to structure your calls, choose a starting price and simplify the booking process.

If you’re an Amazon Associate or have an Amazon Storefront, Prime Days can be a great opportunity to earn additional affiliate income. But that does NOT mean you need to spend two days frantically searching Amazon for deals, creating graphics, dropping hundreds of links, and turning your social media into one giant Amazon commercial. There’s a much simpler way to approach it.

If you’ve been building an online business for any length of time, there’s a good chance your tech stack has started to look something like this:One platform for your website. Another for email marketing. Something else for booking calls. Zoom for meetings. A link-in-bio tool. A checkout platform. Maybe another platform to host your course or digital products.

Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been breaking down GetOiling’s different plans from a slightly different perspective. We started with Seed and asked how much business infrastructure we could build if we only had $9 a month to spend. Then we moved into Starter and looked at what another $20 per month could unlock as your audience grows and you need more room for email marketing, landing pages and automation.
