The Sales and Rev Ops Effect

The Calendar Reset That Every Overloaded Business Owner Needs


Listen Later

Ever felt like you’re running flat out but still not getting the important stuff done? Same. In this solo episode of The Sales Ops Effect, I, Charlene Thompson, get real about how I recently found myself stuck in a cycle of frustration, despite knowing better.

As someone with ADHD, I’ve had to build my own systems to make time work for me (because it certainly didn’t on its own). I share the simple but powerful review I finally forced myself to do — and how it helped me reclaim my diary, clear my head, and stop spinning my wheels.

Here's what I cover:

  • Why even seasoned project managers can slip when it comes to their own time
  • The method I created years ago that still saves me today
  • The difference between Business As Usual (BAU) and Project time (and how you might be getting it all tangled)
  • A step-by-step way to spot where your working hours are disappearing
  • Why you might only have 5 hours a week to actually move new projects forward (it’s not just you!)


I also chat about why flexible structures save us from chaos, how this all links to how I run Sales Ops projects, and why I’m considering running a mini workshop on this.

🎯 Want in on a live session where I walk you through this? Pop me an email at [email protected] or DM me on Instagram at @salesopseffect – if enough people are keen, I’ll run it on April 1st for £20.

👀 Got a question or a win to share after listening? Drop me a message – I'd love to hear how you manage (or wrestle) with your calendar.
