Book your gift session

Transform your overwhelmed design studio into a streamlined business you love running.

In one focused session, we'll map out practical steps to get you back on track and in control.

Listen, I know what happens behind the scenes of a design studio—I've lived it.

While everyone's posting their wins on social media, reality often looks different. And admitting you need support? That's not something most designers broadcast.

Between February 3rd and 21st, I'm offering 10 free strategic coaching sessions for designers who want to strengthen their business foundations. No pitches, just practical solutions.

This session is for you if:
  • Your design studio is running you—not the other way around. Your calendar controls your life, and you're stuck in survival mode instead of thriving or growth mode.
  • You're attracting clients who push back on your rates and struggle with boundaries, leading to scope creep and stretched timelines.
  • Your revenue swings between feast and famine, and you're ready for strategies beyond hoping for referrals or slashing your rates.
  • You're drowning in business advice but need a clear, actionable path forward that fits your specific situation.
  • You know your client experience could be exceptional with the right systems, but starting feels overwhelming.
  • The idea of setting up Dubsado or ClickUp makes you want to hide under your desk—but you know it could transform your workflow.
  • Your evenings and weekends have become extension cords for your work hours, and you're ready to reclaim that time.

That's why I wanted to offer you something special.

During our call, we'll cut through the overwhelm and identify 2-3 strategic steps tailored specifically to your studio and goals. No generic advice—just practical solutions that match your working style.

These strategies have helped designers double their project fees, cut their work hours by 30%, and finally take weekends off. But more importantly, they've helped them fall back in love with their businesses.

Here's the truth: You haven't failed. You just haven't found the right systems and strategies for YOUR business... yet.

Ready to take control? Book one of the 10 complimentary 60-minute sessions available this February.

Can't find a suitable time due to timezone differences? Just send me an email with your timezone and I'll try to find a spot in my calendar.

This opportunity is open to everyone—whether you're ready for long-term support or just need clarity for your next steps. What matters is moving you away from generic advice and toward strategies that actually work for your unique situation.

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

You untangle the chaos and streamline the process.

“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.

The setting up of Dashboards within ClickUp has been a huge gain. Being able to point my colleagues to a dashboard that will answer all those little questions that they keep asking me has already taken a load off. Having a new customer tell me that whilst our approach was the friendliest of all she had received, our structured work plan was also the most professional.

Stephanie is worth every single penny and more. You may think you' re working with Stephanie on one part of your business but you'll find her knowledge and insight will far out way just that one problem and solution. The little videos when I was facing something niggling between our sessions were invaluable!

“Before working together my brain was all over the place. I'm good at what I do but I'm a right-brained thinker and have been called a free spirit many times. So, the business side of things was such a struggle for me.”

The program was challenging for me, but in a way that I needed it. It took me far out of my comfort zone but I felt you were great at keeping in touch and answering my questions during and between each session and gently pushed me to stay on top of my homework. I was so appreciative of the documents you shared and the videos have been such a great help!!

Now, my confidence in managing the business side of things has been astounding! It's even helped me streamline my services and offer some new ones. I feel like I've been able to set a clear direction for my business, I'm streamlining and clarifying my service offerings, reevaluating my pricing, monitoring the business better, and it's so much more organized.

“Before working together I had created my Dubsado account but did not know how to get started with mapping out my workflows and then getting them in Dubsado. I just could not figure it out”

I used Gmail, Google Drive, Canva and Calendly to manage my client process and it felt like I was constantly winging it. I did not know what to do for which client and when I needed to do them and tasks started falling through the cracks.

There is no way I would have mapped out everything without your help. You're so clear on what needs to happen and explain how to do it inside Dubsado. I found you even more valuable than a Dubsado queen. You are an amazing business mentor! I mean how many people can support you with Dubsado setup and mentor you at the same time?

“I've had lots of compliments for how organised and streamlined my group programme onboarding is since working on it with Stephanie. I also feel great in terms of how confident and supported I feel by my new systems and workflows. It's such a time saver and means I no longer have to worry about dropping balls or forgetting things..”
