The Business Out-of-Your-Head Kit

Stop keeping your entire business in your head. This kit walks you through writing down how your business actually runs: what happens from first call to paid, who does what, what has to happen every week, and what someone else would need to know if you were out. You fill it in yourself, at your own pace.

Questions about the kit.

What file types are in the kit?

One ZIP with six files: three PDFs (Start Here, the 25-page playbook and the 30-Day Checklist), two Word files that also open in Google Docs (the Process Card and the Workbook) and one Excel file that also opens in Google Sheets (the Operations Tracker, with working formulas).

Can I print it?

Yes. The PDFs are for printing or writing on; the Word and Excel files are the editable copies. It is a digital kit: you download it right after you pay, Cara emails you a copy, and nothing is shipped.

What is the 90-day credit?

If you book TheOpsIQ’s Ops Automation Playbook within 90 days, what you paid for the kit comes off its price. The kit is complete without us.

Was AI used to make it?

Yes. The kit was written by Cara O’Connor of TheOpsIQ in Arvada, Colorado, and designed with AI help. The four example businesses in it are made up, and labelled as made up.
