FOR GROWING SERVICE BASED BUSINESSES
The Growth Accelerator
Scale Beyond Solo Practice
For established service professionals who have consistent revenue but are stuck as the bottleneck. Systematize operations, reduce founder dependency, and scale your delivery.
The Founder Bottleneck
You’ve built a successful business:
- You have consistent clients and revenue
- Your lead generation is systematic
- You’re charging good rates
- You’re fully booked
But you’ve hit a ceiling:
- You can’t take on more clients (you’re at capacity)
- Every client requires YOUR time and expertise
- You can’t take a vacation without revenue stopping
- Hiring feels risky (how do you train someone to do what you do?)
- Your business is 100% dependent on you
You’re trading time for money at the highest level—but you’re still trading time for money.
To scale beyond $500K-$1M, you need to:
- Systematize your delivery so others can execute
- Reduce founder dependency
- Build leverage (products, team, systems)
- Step into the CEO/visionary role (not just a consultant)
That’s what the Growth Accelerator does.
Is This Right For You?
THIS IS FOR YOU IF:
You're generating $300K-$1M+ annually (or close to it)
You have consistent client flow (not feast-or-famine)
You're fully booked and at capacity
You want to scale beyond trading time for money
You're ready to systematize and delegate
You're willing to invest 6-12 months in building operational systems
You have budget to hire team members or contractors
You're preparing for growth, sale, or exit
You want to step into CEO/visionary role (not just consultant)
NOT RIGHT FOR YOU IF:
You're still in feast-or-famine mode → Start with Predictable Profit System first
You're generating under $300K annually → Build consistent revenue first
You don't have foundational systems in place → Start with Authority Launchpad or Predictable Profit
You're a mid-market organization ($5M-$50M) → See Fractional CMO Services instead
You want to stay solo (nothing wrong with that, but this program is about scaling)
You're not ready to invest in team/systems

- You’re exhausted and hitting a ceiling
AFTER (Where You’ll Be):
- Your business operates systematically (documented processes)
- Team members deliver client work at your standards
- You focus on strategy, growth, and vision (not delivery)
- Revenue continues when you take time off
- Your business has value beyond your personal involvement
- You’re building a sellable asset (not just a job
- You have options: scale, maintain, or exit

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between Tier 1 and Tier 2?**
Tier 1 (Strategic Acceleration): $4,500/month
- I provide strategy, frameworks, and guidance
- You execute the implementation (or your team does)
- Best for consultants with a team already in place or who enjoy implementation
Tier 2 (Implementation Acceleration): $9,000/month
- Everything in Tier 1
- PLUS 15-20 hours/month of hands-on implementation from my team
- We help write SOPs, build products, set up systems
- Best for consultants who want faster results with less implementation burden
Both tiers produce the same outcomes—Tier 2 just gets there faster with less of your time.
Is this done-FOR-me or done-WITH-me?
Done-WITH-you.
I provide:
- Strategy and frameworks
- Templates and resources
- Coaching and accountability
- Course corrections
You implement:
- Content creation
- Outreach activities
- Sales conversations
- Daily/weekly execution
If you want done-FOR-you execution, consider the Growth Accelerator (higher investment, includes team execution support).
How much should I budget for hiring?
In addition to the program investment, budget for:
- Virtual assistants: $1,500-$3,000/month
- Junior consultants/associates: $3,000-$6,000/month
- Senior consultants: $6,000-$12,000/month
- Contractors (project-based): $2,000-$5,000/month
Most clients start with 1-2 team members and scale from there.
We’ll help you determine the right hiring timeline based on your revenue and capacity.
What if I'm not ready to scale but want to optimize?
Consider staying with Predictable Profit System month-to-month for ongoing optimization.
Growth Accelerator is specifically for scaling operations and reducing founder dependency.
If you’re happy with current size and just want optimization, that’s Predictable Profit territory.
Can I do this in 6 months or will it take 12?
Depends on:
- Your starting point (how much is already systematized?)
- Your capacity for implementation
- Whether you choose Tier 1 or Tier 2
- How quickly you hire and train team
Typical timelines:
- Tier 1 (Strategic): 9-12 months to fully scale
- Tier 2 (Implementation): 6-9 months to fully scale
The 6-month minimum commitment ensures we get through systematization and initial team building. Most clients continue 9-12 months to complete the full transformation.
What happens after 6-12 months?
Depends on:
- Your starting point (how much is already systematized?)

- Whether you choose Tier 1 or Tier 2

Maureen Metcalf
CEO & Founder, Innovative Leadership Institute
"When we first met Alisa, we were stuck. We'd worked with other marketing consultants who focused on tactics alone, but Alisa was different. She didn't dwell on specific tactics - instead, she focused entirely on what we were trying to accomplish, where we wanted to go, and the steps to get us there quickly. Her strategic thinking transformed our entire approach. She helped us clarify our offers and messaging across our three distinct audiences and structured our services into clear options that made sense."
