Welcome to The Shortcut

Get everything set up, automated, and ready to grow– without lifting a finger.

Let me guessyou didn’t start your business to become a tech expert, right? You’ve got big ideas, but every time you try to scale, you hit a wall of setup tasks, tools, and tech that feel more like a full-time job than a simple to-do list.

But what if you didn’t have to figure it all out on your own?

HERE'S THE DEAL

Without the right systems in place, you’re stuck in the same cycle, day in and day out.

​​This isn’t just about getting a few tasks off your plate. It’s about creating the structure that allows your business to run itself—so you can stop spending all your time on things that should be automated and finally start focusing on the bigger picture.

​

Because here’s the thing: Growth doesn’t happen by accident. It comes from having a solid foundation of systems that work for you—even when you’re not working.

​

That’s why I’ve created The Shortcut—to set up the systems that automate your business. I’ll handle the tech and setup so you can focus on what really matters: growing your business, serving your clients, and yes—actually taking a break once in a while.

Are you running your business... or is your business running you?

You've got big plans for your business, but there's always something pulling you away. It’s frustrating, right? The important stuff keeps getting pushed aside while you deal with everything else. Things like:

01

You've been meaning to map out your sales funnel for weeks, but it keeps getting pushed aside for more urgent tasks.

02

You need a sales page, but between writing the copy, getting the design right, and dealing with the tech, it’s taking way longer than you expected.

03

You've got a great freebie ready, but figuring out how to deliver it and follow up with potential clients feels like a headache.

04

You know you should be posting on social media or marketing your services, but you’re so bogged down by daily admin tasks that you barely have the time.

Every minute  you spend tangled in tech and admin work is time taken away from  growing your business.

What Would Life Look Like If You Didn’t Have to Do It All?

Imagine waking up to a business that’s already running smoothly, bringing in leads and payments while you focus on the big picture—or even *gasp* take a day off.

​

That’s the power of a fully automated, done-for-you business setup—everything clicks into place and the stress melts away.

But let's be real...

You don’t want to spend hours figuring out which systems you need, let alone learning how to set them up.

 

That’s where I come in. I’ll take care of all that backend BS, so you don’t have to.

Everything You Need, All in One Place

Let’s be honest: You could try to figure it all out on your own. You could spend hours Googling, watching tutorials, and learning how to piece together systems, or you could hire multiple specialists to do it for you. But that would cost you a lot more—both in time and money.

​

​What if you could reclaim your time, focus on your zone of genius, and watch your business grow without sacrificing your personal life? That’s the real power of The Shortcut.

Here's what makes The Shortcut different:

Saves Time and Money

Instead of wasting weeks (or months) trying to figure it out on your own, or hiring multiple specialists for piecemeal solutions, you're getting a comprehensive service that handles everything in one go.

Comprehensive Solution

I don't just fix one piece of the puzzle—I handle all the critical systems that keep your business running smoothly. From automation to onboarding, payments to marketing, it's all done for you, and it all works together seamlessly.

Streamlined and Tailored

This isn’t a plug-and-play service. Everything is custom-built to fit your unique business needs and goals, so the systems and automations align perfectly with how you work, saving you time and effort every day.

Empowered, Not Dependent

Once everything is set up, I ensure you know exactly how to use it. With walkthroughs and tutorials, you’re confident moving forward without constantly needing outside help. Other services might leave you dependent—The Shortcut leaves you in control.​​

How does this sound?

Here's what's possible with the right support:

06

Everything is handled for you—no more worrying about the small stuff because you know it's all under control.

05

You've got a clear roadmap for growth, knowing exactly what steps to take and when to take them.

03

Your calendar, emails, and payments are fully automated, freeing up time to focus on strategy and growth.

04

Marketing is no longer a headache—you've got the tools and time to keep it consistent and effective.

02

Clients are onboarded automatically and follow-ups happen without you lifting a finger.

01

You've got systems that run seamlessly in the background, saving you hours every day.

The Shortcut

The Shortcut is the ultimate done-for-you solution so you can ditch the overwhelm, automate your operations, and finally focus on the parts of your business that light you up—all while gaining hours back in your day.

Two options,
One perfect fit for you

I know that not every business has the same needs. That’s why The Shortcut offers 2 different levels of support, from essential systems to full-on growth and automation setups. Choose the package that fits where you’re at, and let me take care of the rest.

Both packages come with 3 months of business coaching to ensure you're not just setting up systems—you’re also making progress on your bigger business goals. While I handle the backend, we’ll work together to ensure your business grows in the right direction.

How it works

CUSTOM ROADMAP

Based on our findings, I’ll develop a custom roadmap with specific solutions and recommendations tailored to your business. This will outline exactly what needs to be automated, streamlined, or enhanced to give you the freedom to focus on growth.

SETUP & HAND-OFF

I handle the full implementation of the roadmap, setting up the systems and processes for you. Once it’s done, I’ll provide you with a detailed walkthrough so you’re confident navigating everything and ready to hit the ground running.

DEEP DIVE AUDIT

We start by taking a comprehensive look at your business processes to identify where you’re losing time, money, and energy. This deep dive uncovers inefficiencies and highlights areas where automation can make your life easier.

And with 3 months of coaching included in every package, I’ll be there every step of the way, making sure you’re hitting your business goals while I handle the systems.

"Working with Marci has been a game-changer! She swooped right in and immediately set up an automation I desperately needed, saving me hours and eliminating the hassle of juggling repetitive tasks."

What would usually give me a headache was streamlined and simplified, all thanks to her expert approach and ability to make automation accessible and easy to understand. I can’t recommend her enough to any solopreneur or small business owner looking to reclaim their time and simplify their operations.

Wait ! I Have A Question

  • How much time will this program take?
    The Plan Like a CEO Playbook is designed for busy entrepreneurs like you. The tools and training are simple and straightforward, and you can complete the entire process in just a couple of hours. Think of it as a small investment of your time now that saves you hours every week by helping you focus on what really matters.
  • What if I don’t have a clear goal yet?
    No problem! The Playbook includes a Big Goal Ideas Checklist to help you define an exciting, actionable goal that aligns with your vision. You don’t need to have it all figured out—that’s exactly what this system is here to help you with.
  • Is there a refund policy?
    The Plan Like a CEO Playbook comes with a 7-day happiness guarantee. If you try it and don’t feel like it’s the right fit, just email me within 7 days for a full refund—no questions asked.
  • Do I need to be good with tech to use this?
    Not at all! Everything is easy to use, even if you’re not a tech pro. The tools are simple, and I’ll walk you through how to use them step by step. You can even stick with pen and paper if that’s your style—this system is flexible enough to work for everyone.
  • I’ve tried planning systems before, and they didn’t work. What makes this different?
    The Plan Like a CEO Playbook is more than a course—it’s a system. And you’re not just learning; you’re implementing. From the Exclusive Planning Tool to the Revenue Roadmap Calculator, you’ll have everything you need to create a plan you’ll actually stick to.
  • What if I'm not ready to quit drinking?
    This program is designed to help you explore your relationship with alcohol to better understand your behaviors before you attempt to change them. Only then will you make the decision that’s right for you, whether that’s to moderate or stop drinking altogether. ​ That's right—there's no expectation that you quit drinking on day 1 of the program; that would require willpower. I don't want you to rely on willpower because it's limited. Instead, we focus on your mindset so that the behavior change follows naturally.
  • Is there a refund policy?
    Yep! I want you to feel confident in your purchase. Your success is my #1 priority, so if it isn't working out with me, I want you to be able to find the support that will get you there. That's why I offer my Happiness Guarantee.
  • How long will it take me to complete the course?
    Each day, you get one new short but powerful lesson for a total of 30 lessons. It's up to you whether you want to engage with the course daily, or binge a whole bunch at one time! You also have lifetime access to the course, so you can revisit lessons when you need a refresher.
  • Is this like AA?
    Nope! There are no groups, there's no surrendering to a higher power because I fully believe that YOU have the power to make lasting changes all on your own, and there are no chips because I don't care about how many days it has been since your last drink—I care about how you FEEL about alcohol.
  • What if I have more questions?
    Reach out to me on Instagram! You can find me @CoachMarciRossi - I'm here to answer any questions you have and help you decide if this program is right for you.
  • How much time will I need to commit?
    We'll meet every two weeks for our power sessions, but the real magic happens in between. You’ll need to dedicate some time to implement the strategies we discuss, but remember—you’re in this to make your life easier, not busier. I’ll help you prioritize and manage your time so that you’re working smarter, not harder.
  • Do you offer payment plans?
    Absolutely! You can choose between a pay-in-full option and save, or spread out your investment over three or more payments. I want to make this as accessible as possible for those who are ready to take action and invest in themselves and their business.
  • What kind of results can I expect?
    Results depend on your commitment, but here’s the deal: we’re not here to play small. Clients who dive in and put in the work have seen everything from best-ever sales months to higher ROI on marketing strategies to finally feeling in control of their business (and their life). I’m talking real, tangible progress, not fluffy dreams.
  • Do you offer refunds or a money-back guarantee?
    Here's the thing: real transformation requires you to be all in—no half-measures, no one foot out the door. When you’re on the fence, it’s easy to back out when things get tough. But here’s the truth: those tough moments? That’s where the magic happens. That’s where real growth kicks in. I believe in your potential, and I’m fully committed to helping you unlock it. This journey isn’t just about getting results; it’s about becoming the business owner you’ve always known you could be. When you decide to invest in this program, you’re not just buying a service—you’re making a promise to yourself that you’re ready to step up, face the challenges head-on, and create the success you deserve. And I’ll be with you every step of the way. If you hit a roadblock, we’ll push through it together. If doubts creep in, I’ll be there to remind you of your power. This isn’t just a transaction; it’s a partnership, and I’m all in with you—so I need you to be all in too. I believe that the best results come from going all-in on your dreams. If you’re ready to make that same commitment, I promise you’ll come out the other side stronger, more confident, and with a business that reflects the powerhouse you truly are.
  • Do I need to have my business fully established before I join?
    Nope! Whether you’re just getting started or you’ve been at it for years, this program is designed to meet you where you’re at. We’ll focus on what you need right now to build or scale your business, and I’ll make sure you’ve got a solid foundation to grow from. In fact, if you don't already have an established business, I can help you get it off the ground with my done-for-you startup services.
  • How quickly will I see results?
    Good things take time, and real transformation doesn’t happen overnight. That said, you’ll start seeing shifts as we dig in—whether that’s in your mindset, your strategy, or how you approach your business. If something isn’t clicking, we’ll adjust and keep moving forward. I’m with you every step of the way.
  • What if I have more questions?
    Book a call with me. I'm here to answer any questions you have and help you decide if my private coaching program is right for you.
  • Is this like therapy?
    Nope! Coaching is about the PRESENT and the FUTURE: what are your goals, what's keeping you from achieving them, and what do you want going forward. It centers on the beliefs you hold about alcohol—and yourself—that are holding you back and exploring new perspectives that can help you move forward. Therapy or counseling helps you work through or heal issues from your PAST that are causing problems in the present. Some examples include trauma, abuse, or anything that involves a clinical diagnosis. If you need support in this area, I encourage you to find someone licensed to handle such things.
  • Is there a refund policy?
    Yep! I want you to feel confident in your purchase. Your success is my #1 priority, so if it isn't working out with me, I want you to be able to find the support that will get you there. That's why I offer my Happiness Guarantee.
  • What if I'm not ready to quit drinking?
    This coaching program is designed to help you explore your relationship with alcohol to better understand your behaviors before you attempt to change them. Only then will you make the decision that’s right for you, whether that’s to moderate or stop drinking altogether. ​ That's right—there's no expectation that you quit drinking on day 1 of the program; that would require willpower. I don't want you to rely on willpower because it's limited. Instead, we focus on your mindset so that the behavior change follows naturally.
  • Is this like AA?
    Nope! There are no groups, there's no surrendering to a higher power because I fully believe that YOU have the power to make lasting changes all on your own, and there are no chips because I don't care about how many days it has been since your last drink—I care about how you FEEL about alcohol.
  • What happens after I apply?
    We will hop on a brief call so that I can answer any questions you might have. If it looks like we will be a good fit, you will then be invited to join my coaching program. Then, once you finalize your purchase, it's time to get this party started!
  • How will this fit into my schedule?
    I understand that you have a busy life, which is why I've designed this coaching program to be flexible and convenient. This means you can fit coaching sessions into your schedule without having to sacrifice other important commitments. Additionally, with 1-on-1 coaching, you can often achieve faster results than you would with group coaching or self-help programs. This is because you'll receive more personalized attention and support, which can help you overcome obstacles more quickly and make progress faster.
  • I'm not very tech-savvy—what if I need support after our time together?
    Once the systems are set up, I don’t just leave you hanging. I’ll walk you through everything with training videos and cheatsheets, making sure you understand how to use and manage the systems on your own so you feel fully confident in taking control of your new processes and tools. These resources are yours to keep and will be there for you to refer back to whenever you need, ensuring you can manage and adjust things easily as your business evolves.
  • Is there anything The Shortcut can't do?
    Absolutely! I’m all about transparency, so before you ever sign up, we’ll sit down and discuss your specific needs. If there’s something outside my wheelhouse, I’ll be upfront about it. That way, you're fully clear on what I can deliver and what might need another solution.
  • What kind of tasks do you take off my plate?
    I handle all the time-consuming operational tasks that keep your business running behind the scenes—like scheduling systems, email marketing automations, client onboarding processes, payment processing, etc. Basically, I make sure the important stuff that no one sees is working smoothly.
  • What if I don’t know what systems I need?
    No worries! We’ll start by seeing where your business currently stands and where you want to take it. From there, it’s just about connecting the dots! Together, we’ll figure out exactly what systems make sense to get you from point A to point B. Or if you prefer, you can call the shots on which ones work best for you and then I'll get to implementing!
  • What if I’m already using certain tools or software? Will I have to switch?
    I work with the tools you already have in place whenever possible. My goal is to build on what’s working for you, not to force you into using a specific platform. If there are gaps, I’ll suggest tools that integrate seamlessly with your existing setup so everything works together smoothly. That said, I have tried a LOT of the tools out there, so if I know of a better product that could make things easier for you, I'll let you know. Any recommendations I make though are totally optional.
  • How much of my time is required?
    Your input will be needed from time to time—after all, it’s your business, and we want to make sure everything aligns with your goals. But if you prefer, you can be as hands-off as you want during the process. Once we’ve had the initial deep dive to understand your needs, I’ll handle the heavy lifting, and you can jump in when necessary to make key decisions.
  • How long does it take to set everything up?
    Some systems can be set up in just a few hours or days, like scheduling tools or basic email automations. Others, like client onboarding processes or full funnel development, might take a bit longer. But no matter the scope, everything will be wrapped up and ready to hand over by the end of the 3-month coaching package. That way, you’ll have a fully functioning setup and a solid strategy in place by the time we’re done.
  • I’m already overwhelmed. Won’t this just add to my stress?
    I totally get it. You’re already juggling a million things, and the last thing you need is more on your plate. The Shortcut is designed to relieve that pressure, not add to it. I’ll take care of the tech and system setup, so you can focus on what you’re great at. You’ll actually feel less overwhelmed once everything’s streamlined.
  • What are the next steps?
    We’ll hop on a call where I can get a clear understanding of your business and goals. From there, we’ll define exactly what your package would include, so you know what you're getting and how it’ll benefit your business.
  • What’s the point of the strategy coaching that comes with The Shortcut?
    I don’t set up systems just for the sake of having them. Every tool and process we implement is chosen to support your larger business goals. But systems alone won’t guarantee success. The strategy coaching is where we connect all the dots, making sure that everything works together to drive your business growth. It’s about building the big picture and ensuring you have a clear path forward to scale your business effectively.

Here are some concerns I typically see:

It's time to take control

I know how overwhelming it can feel when you’re trying to grow your business and keep up with the day-to-day. You want to focus on the big picture, but it’s hard when the same repetitive tasks keep pulling you back.

​

But imagine how much lighter your business would feel with systems in place that do the heavy lifting for you.

 

Imagine having more time to focus on what you love and knowing that everything behind the scenes is running like clockwork.

​

This isn’t just about saving time—it’s about giving you the freedom to finally step into the role of CEO. You’ve worked hard to get here, and you deserve to have a business that works for you, not the other way around.

​

So let’s do this. Let’s get your systems sorted, your business streamlined, and your time back.

​

Because you’ve got big goals, and I’m here to help you hit them.
