Welcome to the Age of the “NEW OBM”...
Where Demand is Through the Roof!

INCREASE YOUR EARNING POTENTIAL by working on a monthly retainer or project-based payment structures. Learn the skills that business owners need and value - and are willing to pay for. OBM School will show you how to ditch your limiting money beliefs and price your services correctly - OBMs usually charge $60, $100, and even $200 or more per hour, and you can too, if you follow the right process.

ENJOY LONGER TERM CLIENT RELATIONSHIPS as you become integral to your clients' businesses. That means less time marketing yourself and looking for new clients!

WORK WITH YOUR IDEAL CLIENTS by choosing a small group (usually 3 to 4), who pay you well, love and appreciate everything you do, and can’t live without you! Less is more!

CO-CREATE WITH YOUR CLIENTS as you get deeper into strategy you’ll find yourself creating new streams of revenue for your clients, including new programs or products.

FIND NEW CLIENTS BY WORD OF MOUTH, because when you help create success, word gets around very quickly, and you’ll soon be booked out way in advance!

A Virtual Assistant who wants to transition

I’M MAKING 3X MY FORMER RATES AND I’M SO CLOSE TO MAXING OUT MY CLIENT ROSTER!

I landed 2 clients, and it looks like I won’t be taking on any more new client work over the next 3 months! Yesterday this was only a dream, and I was thinking “Could this be possible for me too?”. I discounted myself because of my location, but I’m so grateful for all of Sarah’s coaching and mindset work.

I CLOSED MY PERFECT FIRST CLIENT AFTER A WEEK IN THE PROGRAM!

I’m very grateful that I found the OBM role and this program - I found my perfect “unicorn” client after just one week! Understanding what approach would work for me has been a game-changer! I feel really comfortable diving into systems and processes with my clients.

MY INVESTMENT PAID OFF AFTER A WEEK!

Even after just a week inside OBM School, my investment had already paid off! One look at the systems vault, and I spent 6 hours updating my internal SOPs. Love love love everything I saw - it’s a total gold mine! I'm so happy that I chose to train with OBM School for the extended systems vault alone!

Wiebke Uhlendorf

Online Business Manager

Confession: When I First Started Out,
I Worked for Free

Over a decade ago, hustling in corporate was my reality.

I was overworked. I was overtired. And I was totally OVER IT!

After discovering the potential of online business, I started my side-hustle as a Virtual Assistant.

And I’m ashamed to admit that I charged my very first client...NOTHING.

Yup, I worked for free.

Today, I look back and can’t believe I did that!

But I believed that I needed to “get experience first” or “get some wins under my belt” before I could charge anything (even though I had an MBA, had run a successful landscaping company, and had a 3-year career in corporate - I know!)

And then when I did get paying clients and built up my roster as a VA, I often found myself in the cycle of being a do-er, a yes woman, going above and beyond for my clients even though it meant sacrificing the things I said I wanted: time with my kids, time for myself, flexibility, and vacations!

I was “on call” all the time because I believed that I needed to do all the things for my toxic clients who were slowly killing my soul.

And I would have been stuck in a cycle of undercharging and overworking, never making enough at my side-hustle to leave my corporate job...selling myself and my skills short…not realizing my worth…

UNTIL ONE DAY,
I FINALLY HIT MY BREAKING POINT.

By the time I had my first baby on the way, I realized this was totally unsustainable as part of the vision I had for the future of my growing family.

That’s when I realized…

I had the skills.

I just needed the confidence...and confidence comes by doing.

So I set out to prove to myself that I could do it.

I fired the toxic clients.

I stepped into that bigger role that I wanted for myself as an OBM.

I doubled, then tripled my rates, from $35 an hour to $100 or more.

Eventually I completely ditched the dollar-for-hour model and started charging for my expertise, not my time.

My business boomed and because I was taking the weight off my clients and freeing them up to do what they wanted to do, they were happy to pay.

SINCE THEN I’VE BEEN ABLE TO...

Grow my own Online Business Management agency (with a team of Confident OBMs)...

Scale a multi-6 figure business...

Train over hundreds of OBMs with my signature programs inside the OBM School…

All while raising my 3 amazing kids (and a fur baby!), taking long weekends camping in our RV, caring for my mum, and enjoying vacations away with my hubby…

I can truly say that I have the life that I always wanted - and that’s what I want for you, too.

I don’t want you to make the mistakes that I did when I was scaling as an OBM.

I want you to have the confidence to charge the rates you deserve without blinking.

I want you to have the control to choose the clients you want to work with.

I want you to have the freedom to make your own schedule, knowing that you’ll never lack for work because your clients LOVE you.

That’s why I created the OBM School Certification program- because it’s not just about my journey and my experiences. It’s about learning from the wisdom of a group of talented OBM School Mentors, each with their own skill sets and gifts. It's about being immersed in a community that truly “gets it” and can hold you accountable to your dreams and goals. It's about immersing yourself in advanced OBM skills trainings and work sessions so you can feel confident about your ability to deliver results to your clients.

The OBM School Certification Program is Designed to Help You Advance Your OBM Business- the Right Way.

BECAUSE WE SEE IT TIME AND TIME AGAIN...

Professionals who are desperate to QUIT their jobs but are worried about how to transition their very transferrable skills to the online world…

OBMs and VAs who are giving SO MUCH to their clients but aren’t able to lead their clients' businesses with confidence…

And OBMs who want to advanced their skills and build momentum without having to reinvent the wheel and with the support of a solid community.

And they’re usually stuck in one of 2 scenarios:

SCENARIO #1:

MESSY ACTION

Start before you’re ready!”

You don’t have to get it perfect, you just have to get it going!”

Ready, Fire, Aim!”

You’ve heard the mantras before. You’ve gotta take action and just do it, otherwise you’ll never get anywhere!

And sometimes the messy action brings results. You might have some paying clients. It might even feel like you’ve got momentum…

But what’s really happening?

Well, you might ALSO have...

“No Money Mary” Clients that don’t appreciate you (and aren’t willing to pay OBM rates because their business is too unstable to afford it)...
A $1500/month open retainer that requires eleventy-thousand hours a day - leaving you burned out without any time to yourself (let alone grow your business or bring on a new client)…
Unclear and confusing packages - you’ll do anything that your clients ask for (like data entry and personal errands), even though it’s soul-sucking and you KNOW you should be staying in your zone of genius and serving clients on a higher level...
An ugly duct-taped website that you keep meaning to get to...but you’re too busy serving clients to do it…
NO time to work on your business and your vision because you’re always drowning in client work…

So in reality, you might be really busy...but you’re not getting where you want to go

SCENARIO #2:

STUCK IN PERFECTIONISM

On the other side of the spectrum, there are the people who are frozen.

I’m rebranding my website again - I think it will be live in 3 months.”

I’m retooling my packages (even though I don’t have any clients yet)”

I need to learn how to build funnels/Facebook ads/graphic design/ALL the tech before I can launch my OBM business”

I need to get a few more pieces in place before I can leave my 9-5. I’m just not ready (even though it’s been YEARS and I’m beyond burned out).”

Imposter Syndrome is big and scary and every time you make some progress, it rears its ugly head to stop you.

Which means that you probably end up…

Frustrated with yourself for not making the kind of progress that you want.
Wishing things were different (or that YOU were different)
Comparing yourself to others that are “further along” - if they can do it, why can’t you?

Now, I’ve seen these 2 scenarios play out over and over again, with people who 100% have what it takes to be successful OBMs...they’re just missing the boat when it comes to the right STRATEGY.

Here’s What Happens in the “Sweet Spot”

CHELLEY
Online Business Manager

"I genuinely wake up every morning, excited to work in my business and excited to work with my client..."

"OBM School has really encouraged my to grab the bull by the horns, run with things, and build the business properly on solid foundations so that I don't feel like I'm winging it and promising clients things I've actually never done before!

It sounds super cheesy, but I genuinely wake up every morning, excited to work in my business and excited to work with my clients who I'm deeply aligned to and absolutely adoreI"

"My systems set up and the program is paid for with my first client!"

"Moving through the modules has been a helpful process for being thorough in my OBM Biz setup. The biggest win? My systems setup has already been paid for with my first client! So has the cost of this program! Now to snag another client with my new-found confidence !"

KATIE
Online Business Manager

AMANDA
Online Business Manager

"I closed my perfect first client after a week in the program!"

"I closed my first client less than a week into the program, and I swear they’re my perfect ‘unicorn’ client! I’m very grateful that I found the OBM role and the OBM School Accelerator! I feel really comfortable diving into systems and processes with my clients. Understanding what approach would work for me has been a game-changer!"

"I’ve pivoted my VA clients to OBM work and finally feel confident in making the transition"

"After just two weeks working diligently with this program, I’ve let go of my bad "No Money Mary" VA clients, and successfully pivoted my former VA clients to OBM work! I’m so thankful for all of the help and support that Sarah and the community has given me throughout the program. Without this course I would NEVER have had the confidence to make this transition!"

ALISHA
Online Business Manager

ASHLEY
Online Business Manager

"I’ve doubled my income AND now work less hours!"

"Before the program, I didn't feel comfortable calling myself an OBM. Yes, I have been in a few systems and played around but I was not comfortable with SOPs, how to market my site or social media as an OBM, and more.
After enrolling in the Accelerator program, I doubled my income and am currently making what I made at my full-time job with just 1 OBM client and 2 social media management clients while working even less hours!"

(A note about fear)

When I took the leap into my OBM business, I was terrified.

But I knew I was capable of more - and it was finally time to prove it. I didn’t want to regret not reaching my potential...

And I certainly didn’t want to be stuck for years with a business and clients that weren’t giving me the freedom that I wanted, waking up one day realizing I missed out on my kids’ childhood.

I often talk to women who really want to join our programs, but they let their fear get in the way.

The fear of “Is this right for me?” (when your gut is telling you “yes, yes, yes!”).

The fear of starting something new, that’s out of your comfort zone (even though you’re hungry for change and hate the thought of being stuck in your 9-to-5 forever.)

The fear of “I’m not really the business owner type” (even though the thought of being your own boss makes you excited as hell!)
And I refuse to let that happen to you.

Because I know what’s on the other side. I’ve lived it myself, and I’ve helped hundreds of people follow the same path.

Imagine...

A full roster of clients who LOVE working with you and will happily pay anything you ask... (Plus a waiting list of eager beavers just waiting for a spot to open up!)...

Making consistently more income - doubling or even tripling your revenue in a short amount of time, while working fewer hours and enjoying your freedom...

Feel amazing about the direction your business is going because you’ve got clarity, goals, and a game plan to get there...

Not having to think twice about indulging in small luxuries for yourself and your family...you deserve it!

And planning your family vacation for any time you damn well please...because you don’t have to “ask for time off” anymore - YOU decide!

Time freedom, client freedom, AND a great living? Yes, you CAN - all you have to do is take the first step and join us in the Accelerator.

Let’s make it happen for you together!
