You’re running a business you’re proud of,
but you have a feeling it can do more.
The day to day is taking effort, some gaps you can’t seem to outsmart, and there’s a certain slog that’s limiting what your business is bringing in. You need to grow, but you feel maxed out.
There should be a way to hack the operational bottlenecks so the momentum starts to build.
That’s what I do.
I get your business working for you.
I’ve been where you are.
I grew up watching my mom run her own small business. I spent eight years building one myself. And I've spent the last decade inside some of the largest advertising operations in the world — learning what makes the difference between a business that hums and one that grinds at any scale.
What I found: the gap is not about working harder. It's about finding the specific things that are jamming up the people doing the work, and fixing those. Because once those key axes are fixed, everything else gets easier.
That's what I come in to do.

What people say
“I've spent my career in operations / back of house, and now I'm running my own business. What's needed to run your own business is very different from the work I know how to do, and Magdalena's helped me grow.
Before working with Magdalena, I was stuck in analysis paralysis, agonizing over the wrong things while the right ones sat untouched. She helped me see the whole picture: not just defaulting to the piece I'm familiar with, but the business around it. How to find clients and engage them. How to scope and close the work. When to make a decision and when to just execute.
Now I move faster. I know which decisions matter and which don't. I make the call and move on. Her PM background and her experience running her own company show up in every conversation. She knows where the leverage is, and she has the patience to help you find it yourself. She's kind, empathetic, focused. The kind of sherpa you want next to you when you're climbing something new.”
- Freddie Gotanco, Founder
"Magdalena came on board a web site development project that had fallen into the weeds. She took this gnarly knot, straightened it out and pushed the team forward to completion. We are so grateful for the enthusiasm and energy she provided and know that without her it would have remained unfinished. We would highly recommend Magdalena for any project."
— Caroline O'Hara, Sales and Marketing Director
