In this episode, I get a little heated as I dive into why conventional productivity tips like "Money Mondays" often don't work, especially for those of us who are neurodivergent.

Key Points:
My personal experience with inattentive ADHD and its late diagnosis.The challenges of traditional business tasks for neurodivergent individuals.How I use Airtable to create systems that align with my needs, particularly an automated sales hub to manage finances stress-free.--

Today we're diving into why you shouldn't always make data-driven decisions in your business. Yep, you heard it right! Even as a data-driven entrepreneur, I've learned that sometimes, you need to look beyond the numbers. I'll share a personal story from 2021 when I chose to ignore what the data was suggesting and took a different path that ultimately reshaped my business.
Key Points:
Understanding when to put aside data for strategic business decisions.My transition from relying heavily on VIP days to focusing on growing my group program, despite the initial lower earnings from the latter.The importance of having an Airtable sales hub to track and analyze sales data effectively, enabling informed, yet intuitive business choices.WAYS TO WORK WITH ASHLEY:

Hey everyone, this is just a quick update 'cause there's no full episode this week. We're doing some big stuff behind the scenes, including a new name for the podcast and some other cool things coming your way soon.
So instead of our usual show, I want you to check out my guest spot on Claire Pells' "Get Paid Podcast.
LISTEN TO THE PODCAST ON SPOTIFY
LISTEN TO THE PODCAST ON APPLE PODCASTS
In that episode, I got real vulnerable - more than I ever have before. I share what's been going on in my life this past year, how it's affected my business, and some of the big choices I've made. It's super transparent and kinda ties into some of the stuff we'll be announcing soon.
You can find the link to listen in the show notes. If you check it out, shoot me a DM on Instagram - I'm @systemsofstress. I've had some amazing chats with people who related to my story or have been through similar stuff.
Being open and real has always been super important to me, and I'm pumped to get back to that in a big way. Can't wait to share more with you soon. Enjoy the podcast and have an awesome day!

This is probably the most click bait episode title I have ever had, but it is literally true and I had to share it with you. 😂 In this episode, I'm talking about how my Airtable content hub made me $15,000 this month, while I was on vacation. A lot of the times people don't equate systems with additional revenue. However, truly, I was only able to make this extra $15,000 because of my systems and because of my team and we'll get into that. Let's dive in!

In this episode, I'm sharing the secret to having triple the amount of success stories, testimonials, and client results on your sales pages without having to revamp your curriculum or constantly chase clients for testimonials. Let's dive into how you can effortlessly showcase the results your clients are achieving.
Key Points:
The Importance of Tracking Client Results:
My clients are experts at getting results, but they often struggle with tracking those results.Without a tracking system, it's easy to doubt your program's effectiveness and miss out on showcasing client successes.Most clients won’t voluntarily share their wins unless prompted and incentivized.Mindset Shift:
Believe that your clients are getting results, even if they aren't vocal about it.The lack of testimonials often stems from not having a system to collect them, not from the program's ineffectiveness.Steps to Setting Up a Client Results Tracking System:
A. Have a Measurable Program Promise:
Ensure your program promise is specific and measurable.For example, a dating program could promise "helping clients find a relationship" or "getting a boyfriend in 90 days."B. Reverse Engineer Your Onboarding Form:
Collect baseline data to measure progress accurately.Ask specific questions to capture clients’ starting points, such as their current rates or recent achievements.C. Create an Engaging Tracking System:
Develop a tracking form that clients are motivated to fill out.Use Airtable to automate data collection and provide immediate feedback to clients.For instance, when a client books a wedding package, they receive an automated email summarizing their progress and celebrating their achievements.The Benefits of a Client Results Tracking System:
It helps you gather more success stories for your sales pages.Clients feel seen and appreciated, enhancing their experience.You can identify and celebrate your star students, even the quiet ones.Actionable Steps for You:
If you don’t have a client results tracking system, set it up before considering any curriculum overhaul.Track data to see how clients are progressing through your program.Use the collected data to validate your program's effectiveness and showcase it on your sales pages.How We Can Help:
In my group program, Systems Over Stress, we help you set up effective client results tracking systems.We also offer a done-for-you service to set up these systems tailored to your needs.Learn more about working with us here: https://systemsoverstress.co/work-with-usConclusion:
You need a client results tracking system to gather success stories and validate your program's impact. Before making any changes to your curriculum, focus on setting up a system to track and celebrate your clients' progress. If you have any questions or need support, feel free to DM me at @systemsoverstress on Instagram. See you in the next episode!

Key Points:
My Neurodivergent Journey:

Forgetting to send follow-up emails after sales calls, leading to lost leads and guilt.Struggling with consistency in managing money and recurring tasks like "Money Mondays."Fear of growing my business due to concerns about maintaining high standards of client experience.Airtable as a Lifesaver:
Airtable helped me create centralized and automated systems tailored to my neurodivergent brain.Created a call hub in Airtable for automatic call population, call notes, and follow-up emails, without needing to use Gmail.Automated sales tracking and created a group program hub for student and client data, onboarding, offboarding, and engagement.Benefits of Airtable Systems:
These systems allowed me to scale my business without sacrificing client experience or burning out.Airtable systems ensured no tasks slipped through the cracks, even as my business and client roster grew.Practical Steps to Get Started with Airtable:

Homework and Invitation:

✨ Replay with @jamardiggs ... Client Results Cleanup! ✨
I'll be going LIVE every Friday with a new guest and we'll be live workshopping the current results they promise their clients in their 1:1 or group coaching offers. We’ll talk about how they’re currently tracking their results (if at all) and I’ll make specific recommendations on updates to make to make their offer promise easier to measure and track.
We bring it onto the podcast so you can 2X speed it. You're welcome!
Our first guest is @JamarDiggs. Jamar is a YouTube expert. A few weeks back Jamar was our first brave volunteer on the podcast and we workshopped his membership’s existing promise and what results he tracked and how he could make the membership promise even stronger & more measurable.
OLD PROMISED RESULT:
It’s time to make content marketing only 10% of your focus with YouTube Marketing Expert, Jamar Diggs.
UPDATED PROMISED RESULT:
Launch Or Revive Your YouTube Channel and Have a Consistent Posting Schedule For the 3 Months
SO MUCH BETTER RIGHT?!
Well, we brought Jamar back on so he can tell us about how getting clear on his membership’s promised result has changed his offer for the better.
Listen in as we talk about all of the updates he’s made to his membership (and the AMAZING results he’s been getting his clients) since laser-focusing on his new promised result.

In this episode, I wanted to share some behind-the-scenes updates about my business and admit something—I am stressed. Yes, even the person behind Systems Over Stress gets stressed about her own business. It's that lingering stress that keeps me up at night thinking about all the extra work I need to do. I've had those moments of crying to my business coaches and even wondering if I should burn it all down. But don't worry, I am fine, the business isn't going anywhere, and I'm not actually burning anything down.
Here's what I've been up to:
1. Recognizing Stress as a Signal:
If you're feeling stressed about your business, it's a crucial time to pause and evaluate what's going on. For me, stress is a key indicator that something is off—whether it's in my business operations, boundaries, or team communication. Whenever I pause and really try to problem-solve, I always come back to the same solution: better systems.2. Content Systems Overhaul:
This past week, I revamped our content system. I've always used Airtable to map out our content, but I've never found a perfect system. This month, I tried something new. I mapped out my content on paper first, marking out-of-office dates and scheduling bulk content creation days. Mondays and Fridays are now dedicated to writing emails, making reels, recording podcast episodes, and creating YouTube videos. This new system has been working well so far, and I'm excited to see how it evolves.3. Client Results Tracking Systems:
As someone who teaches client results tracking systems, it's ironic that our own system has taken a backseat. We've been busy helping clients set up their systems, but it's time to focus on our own. We've rolled out our Systems Over Stress Stamp of Approval, where clients submit their systems for review. This helps us ensure their systems meet our standards and gives them visibility in our directory. It feels great to finally have this system in place.4. Agency Delivery Systems:
Our done-for-you Airtable agency is at capacity, which is amazing. But with any done-for-you offer, systems are always evolving. We're improving our delivery and operating systems based on feedback from our first cohort of clients. We're setting up support ticketing systems and tracks for agency clients to streamline their onboarding and ensure they get the most impactful systems set up first. I'm excited about these updates and the improved client experience they'll bring.Final Thoughts:
- Addressing the systems issues in your business is the quickest way to get out of overwhelm and stress. If you're feeling stressed, it's a sign that something needs to change. Let me and my team help you identify the systems that will alleviate that stress. We're always taking sales calls to slot you into our next available month.
- On a sales call, you'll tell me what's not working in your business, and I'll recommend simple system solutions we can build in Airtable to alleviate stress immediately. We'll look at your onboarding, offboarding, launching, spreadsheets, and current Airtable bases to automate your team's admin hours, make you more money, and improve your client results.
- I'm comfortable admitting that I sometimes get overwhelmed, but I know how to build the systems to get out of it. If you're feeling the same way and don't know where to start, let me help you. I hope this behind-the-scenes update was helpful. We'll see you in the next episode!
