We turn founder‑run businesses into operator‑run companies so you can finally be the CEO, not the bottleneck.

Gain uncomplicated visibility- understand exactly where your business is at at any given moment with a single-screen view: revenue, cash, pipeline, ops- we’ve got it covered and reported on.

Full control without white-knuckling it is yours with weekly executive cadences where you make the decisions and we see them through.

You’ll feel: 

Relief from the constant, "I'm dropping balls anxiety"
Confidence that "we're on top of it" instead of "I'm the bottleneck and behind on everything"
Calm- the sense that the business is finally a real company, and not a runaway train.

SmartStart is in the business of upgrading you from an overwhelmed hustle-robot to a legitimate CEO who runs on systems, and not heroics.

TESTIMONIALS (FROM CLIENT WHO HAVE SO MUCH TIME BACK, THEY ACTUALLY COULD TAKE THE TIME TO WRITE A REVIEW):

  • “Nat was an absolute game-changer for our team. She kept my head above water during a very demanding season. SmartStart has the discernment to move business forward and make sound decisions even when time and resources are limited- bringing the rare combination of operational excellence and entrepreneurial insight, making an invaluable partner.”

    Tech CEO; $4,000,000 Annual Revenue

  • “Our renewals pipeline was a mess- we had no process and were constantly drowning trying to manage it. In just one week, we made a 16X ROI on what we spent on SmartStart in renewal fees alone, but also got a system that helped us determine at-risk members to focus on retention, and a system that will make this an easy-lift for life!”

    Finance Leader

  • “My life got measurably better within 24 hours of starting with SmartStart- I woke up the next morning and felt like I could think for the first time since I started this company. I’ve never thought twice about the cost, except for ‘best money I’ve spent all month”
