Let’s talk about something not enough people show on social media: The mess behind the scenes.
Your Instagram grid is on point. Your offers are strong. But behind the curtain?
Missed emails
Unsent invoices
Jumbled Google Drive folders
Tasks that live only in your head
Sound familiar?
You’re not failing, you’re unstructured. And at Fairbanks & Company, we help women like you fix that every day.
Why Does Organization Matter?
Because when your back office is a mess, your money slows down, or stops altogether.
Clients feel it. You feel it. And eventually, your business starts to plateau, even if you’re working harder than ever.
But here’s the good news: organization isn’t a personality trait; it’s a system. And it’s one you can absolutely build.

5 Steps to an Organized, Money-Making Business:
1. Document Repeatable Tasks
Start by tracking tasks you do at least 2x a week onboarding, emails, client delivery, etc. Then turn them into repeatable steps or templates.
2. Set Up a Digital Hub
Use tools like Notion, ClickUp, or Google Drive to create a central location for SOPs, client info, and content.
3. Create a Weekly CEO Schedule
Choose a day (or half-day) for reviewing money, metrics, and systems. No client calls. Just you and your business.
4. Automate Low-Level Tasks
Scheduling, reminders, payment follow-ups — all of these can be automated using free or low-cost tools. No excuses.
5. Delegate What Drains You
If it doesn’t require your brain, it’s a candidate for delegation. Your time is your most expensive asset — treat it accordingly.
The Shift:
When you organize your business, you free yourself to lead. You make fewer mistakes, serve clients better, and make faster decisions because you’re not buried under chaos.
