These are catchy marketing phrases and services, sure.
Constantly wasting time on custom workflows and struggling to bring clients in consistently? What designer wouldn’t feel tempted to ‘outsource’ this problem?
But how many designers have fallen into these 'quick solution' traps and are still in the same place? Or worse, ended up feeling even less confident in their ability to run a successful design studio.
Finding real strategies that work for YOU?
Yeah, that’s hard.
You need someone on your side, who gets the challenges of the design industry. Someone who’s been in the trenches and has helped countless other designers streamline their processes with Dubsado & ClickUp and elevate their client experience.
There’s not 1 way, but there is a right and wrong way to run a design studio.
It’s not about having an impressive portfolio or superb design skills. It’s about building a design studio that can manage multiple projects at the same time, challenging clients & tight deadlines, while still thriving creatively.
What if you could …
1
Streamline
Create seamless & systemised workflows in Dubsado or ClickUp so that project runs smoothly from start to finish, ensuring you’re not wasting time or resources.
2
Personalise
Personalise every aspect of your client experience, from onboarding to offboarding, to transform clients into repeat customers and enthusiastic referrers.
3
Grow
Whether you’re looking to increase your revenue, take on bigger projects, or simply create more balance in your work life, together we’ll ensure your business is built for sustainable success.

Here's how we do that!
Strategic client experiences that boost your business.
Because every interaction you have with clients should be smooth and professional.
When you tailor your processes in Dubsado to fit both your creative and operational needs, your client experience isn’t simply good—it’s driving referrals and repeat business.
Less time lost in admin, more time for design.
That constant juggling act between design work and managing client expectations? Let’s streamline your processes & systemise them.
With a personalised ClickUp setup, you’ll spend less time buried in admin, and more time doing what you love—creating amazing designs.
Boundaries and processes that empower you.
When you present your pricing, processes, and boundaries with confidence, clients will value your expertise more.
This leads to smoother client relationships, clearer communication, and keep projects on track and within scope.
Together, let's create a design studio that runs like clockwork and delivers a consistently exceptional client experience — in 3 simple steps.
01
YOUR UNIQUE APPROACH
This isn’t about copy-pasting what worked for me in the past.
Your design studio >> your way.
Whether you’re looking to streamline your workflows in Dubsado or ClickUp, perfect your client experience, or gain the confidence to manage your studio with ease, we start by diving into your business.
Don’t be scared, I’ve been where you are and won’t judge or rush you as we start to untangle the chaos of your current processes or systems and identify areas for improvement.
02
STREAMLINE YOUR OPERATIONS
Sure, having your business run on auto-pilot sounds great but that’s not you.
Yes, you want more time to focus on design. And yes, you want to spend less time on admin.
But you are hands-on because you truly care about your clients and want them to have an amazing and personalised experience.
Together, we’ll streamline your client-facing and back-end processes, find the right balance for you between saving time and keeping your client projects personal.
03
SHINE WITH CONFIDENCE
You do not only feel confident in yourself as a designer but also as a business owner.
You no longer start your mornings by sifting through sticky notes to remember what you need to do that day.
You quit building from scratch for every client and you have a professional, consistent and referral-worthy client experience that keeps projects within the timeline and scope.
And since you started to present your pricing, process and boundaries with confidence, clients value your expertise.
Hi, I'm Stephanie
Client experience, DUBSADO & CLICkUP EXPERT REPORTING FOR DUTY
I deeply appreciate the creative minds who keep pouring their hearts into building unique and captivating brands and websites for their clients.
Running a design studio takes more than simply being great at your craft— you’re constantly juggling project management, client demands, and endless admin tasks.
Even when deadlines loom and scope creep threatens to derail your projects, clients expect you to turn your creativity on like a lightbulb—instant, bright, and ready to dazzle. While your clients might be happy with the end result, you’re left exhausted.
That’s exactly why I started The Streamlined Creative
I didn’t add educational resources to my design studio merely as a smart business move; I walked away from designing. I now can wholeheartedly dedicate my energy and expertise to helping designers like you streamline their processes and elevate their client experiences.
You need someone on your side who understands the frustrations of projects running out of scope and the struggles of explaining to clients that because their favourite colour is pink it does not mean it belongs in the colour palette for their branding. But I’m not here to teach you how I ran my design studio.
Instead, I roll up my sleeves, dig into the details with you, and develop a personalised strategy to help you build a design studio that runs seamlessly, establish more efficient processes, and leave your clients more satisfied

“I was struggling to understand ClickUp and how it could impact our design agency.”
I knew that I needed the longer-term investment of handholding whilst I worked through all our processes. And now I am much more confident and I am excited to put my learnings and ClickUp set-up into practice with future clients.
