You’ve been in business for a while and somewhere along the way, it became more complex than it needs to be.
This isn’t another course or coaching program filled with modules and checklists because you don't need that.
It's a collaborative experience where you’ll join a small group of like-minded entrepreneurs, each bringing their expertise and experiences to the table.
Think your business is automated?
Most online business owners do.
You’ve got some email sequences setup, you're using Zapier like it's your best friend & maybe you have an evergreen funnel.
But after working with thousands of business owners
(from $0 - $1M+), there are always missed opportunities, invisible gaps, or easy wins hiding in plain sight.
Plus, if you're not automating at least 50% of your business, you're losing out on time and money every day.
😖
You're spending hours watching tutorials but still feel stuck
🤝
Or maybe you have automations set up BUT your business has become overcomplicated - you want to SIMPLIFY it!
If you're here it's because you know you’re spending too much time on tasks that could be automated.

"Working with Steph was like hitting the business jackpot! I’d been spinning my wheels, overwhelmed and stuck in the mud for what felt like forever.
But Steph swooped in like a biz fairy godmother, waved her magic wand (aka her brilliant brain), and suddenly—BOOM—I had a clear, custom plan that actually made sense for me. No cookie-cutter nonsense here.
She really listened, got where I was coming from, and helped me automate and streamline all the chaos.
Now? I feel totally energized and excited about the future. I finally get to go back to focusing on what I actually love—coaching and inspiring my people!
Plus, ONE automation that Steph helped me set up brought in $5,712 in less than 4 weeks.
That single automation paid for the Automation Accelerator many times over! Her support? 1000% priceless."
Your business is unique so your support should be too!
This isn’t another course or coaching program filled with modules and checklists because I know you don't want or need that.
You want to connect with others who are on this entrepreneurial journey with you in a safe and supportive space.
❌
This program is fully customized, meaning you’ll focus on automations that actually move the needle in YOUR business.
There aren't any one-size-fits-all strategies.
Everything is tailored to YOUR business goals.

I’ve been agonizing with overwhelm for months - two websites, two newsletters, Google slapdowns - and preparing for a new puppy.
So when I came across Steph, I jumped on the chance to have someone help me achieve a bit of clarity.
It turned out to be so much more!
I did get the clarity, but Steph also came up with a great business idea that solved many of my problems while guaranteeing me an income and freeing me from Google’s shackles.
Thank you Steph - I’m energized, motivated and excited to get going on my new project!

Who is the Automation Accelerator for?
The Automation Accelerator is for business owners who are ready to reclaim their time, simplify the way they work, and finally set up systems & automations that make business easier.
This program is designed for you if:
• You already have an established business with clients, customers, or consistent sales.
• You're overwhelmed by day-to-day tasks and know your backend systems need to be streamlined.
• You're tired of piecing together tools, doing everything manually, or feeling stuck in tech overwhelm.
• You're open to learning, ready to take action, and willing to make changes for real results.
• You want step-by-step guidance, accountability, and a customized action plan for automating your business.
• You value your time and are looking for solutions that last, not just a quick fix.
• You want direct support and expert eyes on your business (not just a generic course).
If you’re craving more clarity, more ease, and more freedom in your business—and you know your automations could be working harder for you—the Automation Accelerator was created for you!
I already have automations in place. Will this help me?
Yes! The Automation Accelerator is perfect if you already have automations set up, but want them to work better.
Most of our clients come in with some systems or automations running but they often find out they’re missing key opportunities, have bottlenecks they didn’t notice, or are using tools in a way that’s holding them back.
Inside the Automation Accelerator, you’ll get:
• Expert eyes on your current setup, so we can spot blind spots or areas for improvement.
• Personalized feedback to streamline what you already have (instead of starting from scratch).
• New strategies and automations you may not even know are possible, based on the latest tech and best practices.
• A step-by-step plan to simplify, optimize, and scale your systems so everything runs smoother and you get even better results.
👉 Even if you think you business is already “automated,” there’s almost always room to make things simpler, more efficient, and way less stressful.
If you want more clarity, less busywork, and automations that actually support your growth, you’re in the right place.
Who is the Automation Accelerator NOT for?
To help you get the most from the Automation Accelerator, we want to make sure this program is the right fit for you. This helps protect your investment, saves you time, and makes sure you get the results you want.
The Automation Accelerator is NOT a fit if you:
• Are looking for a quick-fix without putting in the work.
• Don’t already have a business. If you are new to business, check out the Simple Business School™ here.
• Aren’t willing to implement new systems & automations.
• Want to hand off everything - this is about empowering YOU to simplify and automate, not just us coming in and doing the work for you. We will guide and support you with the setup BUT you will need to do the work too.
• Are not open to learning or trying new tools. We will share recommendations for your current tools and may make recommendations for ways to simplify & automate even further, which may include other tools.
• Need ongoing tech support for things outside the program’s scope (like website management, social media, etc.).
• Aren’t ready to make changes in your business & want to keep things the way they are.

Is it right for me if I’m just starting my business?
The Accelerator is designed for people who already have a business up and running. If you have clients, customers, or systems in place and want to save time and simplify what you’re doing, you’ll get the most value here.
Do I need to be tech-savvy to join?
You don’t need to be a tech expert, but you should have some basic tech skills. We’ll walk you through everything step by step and offer support along the way, but you’ll need to be comfortable handling automation tasks on your own as well.
Will there be live calls or only recordings?
There are regular live coaching calls you can join, plus all sessions are recorded so you can watch them anytime.
How long do I have access to the materials?
You’ll have lifetime access to call recordings so you can revisit lessons or catch up whenever you need.
How quickly will I see results?
Most people start seeing big time savings and less stress within the first few days of implementing the automations, but it depends on how much you implement and your starting point.
When do applications open?
We open applications a few times a year so please join the interest list and we'll be in touch when they open.
Can I get help with my specific tech stack or tools?
Absolutely! Your personalized action plan will be created using the tools you already have.
We’ll help you optimize and automate your unique setup—and also share strategies to simplify your tech stack, so you’re only using what you actually need.
Can you guarantee that my business will be automated in 12 weeks?
We can’t make guarantees since everyone’s business and situation is unique. But if you show up, do the work, and take action on what you learn and the steps outlined in your action plan, you will see results and real progress in your business.
Will I have direct access to Steph?
Yes! Steph is your main point of contact; she leads all the calls and answers questions in the community herself. There are no other coaches at this time so you’ll get personalized support directly from Steph throughout the program.
Can you help set up automations in my current systems?
Yes! You’ll get step-by-step help to automate what you already use, so you don’t have to start over or learn brand new tools unless you want to.
Is there a way to catch up if I miss something?
Yes, all calls and materials are recorded so you can catch up anytime. Plus, you can ask questions in the community at any time if you need help with anything you missed.

Definitely! Everything is online and designed to work no matter where you live.

In the Automation Accelerator, we’re not just setting up a few automations— we’re building streamlined systems & automations that remove bottlenecks and make your business work for you.
With over a decade of experience helping business owners simplify and automate, I specialize in uncovering automation opportunities you may not even realize exist.
My unique approach eliminates manual, time-consuming tasks so your business runs more efficiently with less effort.
You’ll also be surrounded by a small community of entrepreneurs, sharing insights, feedback, and support to help you implement with confidence.
No matter where you are in business, I know how to help you automate what matters most — while keeping your business SIMPLE.
I'm a corporate drop-out, online entrepreneur, and business strategist/consultant.
I live outside of Chicago with my husband, our 2 boys and our dog.
I left a promising career in corporate marketing after 10 years (I was the first & youngest person in an executive role in the company) when my son was born in 2019 to go full-time in my business as a virtual assistant after running it for 3 years as a side hustle.
After growing my VA business to 6+ figures, I pivoted to coaching/consulting to help other online business owners reach their freedom goals.
For the past 5 years, I've helped thousands of business owners simplify their own businesses & get their lives back.
In 2022 I retired my husband from his job at 30 years old and became the sole provider for our family while working only 10-15 hours/week.
In 2024, I launched an all-in-one software, the Simple Business Suite™ to help business owners simplify the backend tech and so they can focus on doing what they love.
My focus is on impact first and I want to help as many people as possible create freedom in their lives.
In 2023, I burned my existing high-ticket-only business model to the ground and created a low-ticket model that aligns with my values of impacting more with the same high-ticket strategies & touch-points.
I also have a podcast called the Simple Business Show™ where I focus on sharing what's actually happening behind the scenes of running a business & I bring the same 'real life/no-sugarcoating approach to interviews I do.
