Document Your Processes and Free Up Your Headspace
OPS-252: Writing Standard Operating Procedures
Most processes live in your head, and that makes delegation exhausting. This hands-on intensive teaches you how to write SOPs your team can follow independently. Learn how to structure steps, create clarity, and include context so work gets done consistently.

3-Hour Intensive
Imagine This…
By the end of this intensive, you will:
-
Turn Your Knowledge Into Usable Instructions
Learn how to take what’s in your head and translate it into SOPs your team can follow without needing you to step in. -
Reduce Mistakes
Build SOPs that include context, sequencing, and troubleshooting so steps don’t get skipped and errors don’t repeat. -
Save Time
Stop re-explaining tasks and retracing your steps. Write it once and let the SOP do the work for you. -
Make Delegation Easier
Create documentation that supports your team, reduces interruptions, and lightens your mental load day after day.
For interior designers who want clearer systems and fewer “how do I….?” questions.
Running everything from memory is exhausting. This intensive helps you move critical processes out of your head and into clear, usable documentation your team can rely on. You’ll practice refining a real SOP, learn how to spot missing steps, and leave with templates and checklists you can use right away. The result is fewer interruptions, more consistent work, and more mental space to focus on what actually matters in your business.
