🌨️ Inclement weather has entered the chat… And suddenly every leader, solopreneur, nonprofit, and GovCon firm is asking the same questions: ➡️ Are we open? ➡️ Are we remote? ➡️ Are we just… winging it? Spoiler alert: bad weather exposes everything—your processes, your communication, and your leadership. Inclement weather planning isn’t about snow, storms, or alerts on your phone. 👉 It’s about trust, preparedness, and taking care of your people. 🎥 Watch the video if you want to sanity-check your current approach—or build a better one before the next weather alert hits. Future you (and your team) will thank you.

“So… what does your team actually do all day?” 👀 I get this question all the time — and the honest answer is: way more than emails and calendars. At SML, we’re a full fractional support engine. Most of what we do happens behind the scenes — but it’s the reason our clients’ businesses run smoothly every day. Here’s a quick snapshot of what’s actually happening on any given day ⬇️ 💼 Administrative & Operational Support 💰 Finance & Payroll 👥 HR & People Ops 📣 Marketing & Visibility 💻 Tech & Systems ✨ The Special Sauce 👉 The real story is in the video — how all of this fits together and why it gives our clients clarity, consistency, and breathing room. So when people ask what my team does all day, the real answer is this: We handle the operational, strategic, technical, and tactical work — so our clients don’t have to. If you’ve ever thought, “I shouldn’t still be doing all of this myself,” you’re probably right. 💙 🎥 Watch the video below — and if it resonates, let’s talk.

If referrals help grow your business—but you’re still winging it without clear client and employee referral policies—this recording is calling your name 👀🎥 In this conversation, I get real about why referral policies are not optional, how they protect relationships, and why “we’ll figure it out later” is not a strategy. This is especially for solopreneurs, small to mid-sized businesses, nonprofits, and GovCon firms who grow through reputation and relationships (aka: the real ones). If referrals matter to your business, it’s time to stop guessing and start being intentional. Fair warning: this one might make you update your policies 😏
