Stop Babysitting Your CRM: Let's Build Workflows You Can Actually Trust Inside CRM Blueprint

If your workflows act like needy toddlers—constantly breaking, needing approvals, or demanding supervision—you’re not alone. Over the last few weeks I’ve heard the same frustrations on repeat: “I don’t trust my workflows unless I’m watching them,” and “I’ve tweaked things so much I think I broke something.”

In this episode, I’m breaking down why so many creatives end up with workflows stuck in the toddler stage… and how to finally build systems that run like grownups.

I’m also sharing why this launch of CRM Blueprint includes two powerful bonuses inspired by my Systems in Session clients: a 21-day January Support Sprint and a full workflow + communication audit for everyone on the waitlist who joins now. Plus, a $200 savings through Thursday.

If you’re tired of babysitting your CRM, now’s the time to build systems you can trust.
