You started your business for freedom.
To work on your own terms, serve clients you love, and build something that actually lights you up.

But somewhere along the way, that freedom started to feel a lot like… busyness.
Every client question still lands on your plate.
Every decision still needs your approval.
And if you stop working, even for a few days, everything stalls.

Here’s the truth: if your business still depends entirely on you, you don’t own a business, you have a job.

In this episode of “The OBM Show”, Sarah Noked shares her five-step framework to help you stabilize, systematize, and prepare your business for scalable growth.

This is about learning how to be the Online Business Manager of your own business so you can start building the foundations you’ll need to eventually hire one… and yes, finally step fully into your role as CEO.

Here’s what we cover:

 • The task audit that reveals where your time (and energy) really go
 • How to automate and delegate recurring tasks without overwhelm
 • Why documenting your systems with simple SOPs changes everything
 • The power of centralizing your tech stack for real team efficiency
 • The mindset shift that helps you let go and lead like a true CEO

Whether you’re still doing everything yourself or getting ready to grow your team, this episode gives you the roadmap to build a business that runs smoothly, strategically, and sustainably.
