Operations Retainer

FOR THE VISIONARY CEO WHO WANTS A PARTNER TO HOLD THE OPERATIONS, HONOUR THE VISION, AND HELP BRING IT TO LIFE.

Taking the overwhelm out of business so you lead with confidence

You’ve built your business from the ground up, turning your passion into something you're truly proud of. But behind the scenes, you're operating in chaos and on the fast track to burnout, jeopardising your business and your sanity.

The right support - whether it’s someone to manage your operations or a reliable task-doer - helps you scale sustainably and create space to focus on what you love. You’ll finally have a business that runs smoothly, feels good, and gives you the freedom to step back when needed.

WOULDN’T IT BE NICE TO….
  • Have the headspace to step fully into your CEO role

  • Trust that your operations are running smoothly without the need to micromanage

  • Deliver a high-touch experience where both your clients and team thrive

  • Take that day off or spontaneous trip whenever you feel like it, knowing everything is under control

  • Have a strategic partner to help bring your big-picture goals to life

“I feel like I have true partners in my business”

Before working with Devon and Alex, I felt like I was just outsourcing tasks. Now, I feel like I have true partners in my business. Devon is my calm-in-the-chaos ally, quietly keeping the wheels turning and making sure nothing slips through the cracks. Alex has this uncanny ability to spot the tiniest detail and then magically build an automation that makes my life easier. They both bring heart as well as skill, and it’s rare to find support that feels this invested in your success. They’re the kind of people you want in your corner.

“You are investing the expansion of your business”

It's a relief to know I can trust you have my back, to think of things proactively, to be invested in the growth of my business, to see the big picture, and to be able to hand over the things that were taking up my brain space.

Why work with us?

We’re Alex & Devon, your operations manager and systems consultant duo for founders who are building businesses that genuinely feel as good as they look.

With over 8 years in strategy and business operations, we’ve supported teams of 15+, held the backend during 6–7 figure launches, and kept businesses running smoothly while founders took time off for holidays, rest, or real life.

And because we’ve been through burnout ourselves - and learned how to rebuild sustainably - we’re here to make sure you never have to reach (or return to) that point.

WHAT OUR FOUNDERS HAVE TO SAY

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Tech Virtual Assistance (Tech VA) is task-based execution, handling support and maintenance of tech and systems. Tech VAs are about efficient action and getting things done based on clear direction, not steering the strategy.

    Online Business Management (OBM) is high-level oversight of your business operations. It brings together strategic thinking and hands-on implementation to keep things running smoothly day to day, whilst supporting your team and setting your business up for sustainable growth.

    OBMs lead and strategise, while Tech VAs execute tasks.

    Not sure what you need? Get in touch, and we’ll help you figure it out.

  • If you require a blend of OBM and Tech VA, we offer customised hybrid packages tailored to your specific needs.

  • The Systems Overhaul is for businesses that need a large structured, strategic setup from the ground up - whether it’s a CRM, a complex project management system, or a complete backend transformation.

    Ideal for businesses with no systems in place or those in need of a full rebuild, the Systems Overhaul delivers a done-for-you setup designed for long-term scalability.

    After the setup, businesses can transition into an OBM or Tech VA retainer, depending on their needs, for ongoing management, optimisation, and support.

    Not sure what you need? Get in touch, and we’ll help you figure it out.

  • Our services are available on a month-to-month basis, with no long-term commitment required. This means you can engage our services monthly without being tied to a lengthy contract, giving you the flexibility to continue as long as you need.

    However, we highly recommend a minimum of 3 months for our OBM retainer to build and implement strategies that create the best long-term results.
