From Overwhelmed to Optimized:
Here’s the truth: Scaling doesn’t break businesses—unclear ownership, broken handoffs, and inconsistent workflows do.
If your week is full of:
-
Slack pings that start with “Quick question…” (and eat your whole day)
-
Work getting redone because “that’s not what I meant”
-
Bottlenecks that show up after they’ve already cost you time and money
…you’re not alone. And you don’t need more hustle—you need a better system.
As you read this page, you’ll probably start noticing the one process that creates the most friction in your business.
Imagine this instead:
-
Your team knows who owns what—and what “done” means.
-
Handoffs stop breaking (sales → delivery → ops → finance).
-
Recurring issues stop recurring because the fix becomes the process.
-
You get through a week without being the “human router” for every decision.
You’ll see each workflow mapped step-by-step, hear fewer “wait—who’s doing this?” moments, and feel the relief of a business that runs without constant supervision.
That’s the transformation waiting inside The Ops Edge Academy—built on the discipline of Toyota, refined for service-based businesses, and designed for you to implement as you go.

Don’t just take it from us—watch leaders describe the moment their operations finally “clicked.”
🎥 Watch Their Stories Below (and listen for what changed in their week: fewer escalations, cleaner handoffs, calmer teams).
This is for you if:
-
You’re still the escalation point for too many decisions.
-
Work gets stuck in handoffs, approvals, or “who owns this?” confusion.
-
Your team is capable—but execution is inconsistent.
-
Growth feels capped because your people can’t absorb more.
-
You want one repeatable operating system you can reuse across the business.
If any of this sounds familiar, The Ops Edge Academy was designed for you.
Secure Your Spot
Well, you’re in luck.
Introducing
The Ops Edge Academy
Over 12 weeks, you’ll take one critical workflow (the one that causes the most friction) and turn it into a repeatable, trainable system—with Hilary’s review at each step.
By the end, you’ll have:
-
A mapped current-state workflow (what’s actually happening)
-
A defined ideal outcome + success measures
-
Countermeasures developed + a GoLive plan
-
A standard your team can train, follow, and improve
There are two kinds of leaders: those who keep the business running through effort and heroics—and those who build systems that make execution inevitable. This is for the second kind.
Unlike generic trainings or recycled frameworks, this academy is built on the discipline Hilary mastered as an executive at Toyota Asia and refined exclusively for service-based businesses.
Over 12 weeks, you’ll apply this proven methodology directly to one core process in your business — building, testing, and refining it with Hilary’s personal review each step of the way. By the end, you’ll not only have a system that works, but also the clarity and confidence to replicate it across every area of your business.
And to mark the achievement, you’ll walk away with an exclusive certification in Process Improvement and Operational Excellence—a credential that validates your expertise and positions you as a leader ready to scale in 2026 and beyond.
Client Love Notes
“Love this program. I joined because I’m bad at process—but even the process-strong people on my team were impressed. We finally got aligned on what ‘good’ looks like, and the day-to-day felt noticeably calmer."
- Borzou A. Founder of NickelBronx
“This changed how I approach process improvement. The tools are practical—and the best part was seeing the workflow on paper and realizing exactly where the bottleneck lived!"
Rose D. Strategic Partner and Operations Expert
“I’d recommend this regardless of experience. It’s not theory—you leave with a process you can train and measure, not just ideas.”
– Ryan F. Director of Operations of Williams Valve Corp
Why Start Now?
Every business has hidden inefficiencies—gaps, bottlenecks, and broken processes that quietly prevent you from capturing all the money your business could earn. For a $1.5M business, a 5% inefficiency costs ~$75,000/year—often in the form of delayed projects, avoidable errors, and leaders stuck in escalation mode.
Time: Every week spent fixing preventable issues steals focus from growth and strategic priorities.
Money: Inefficient operations leak revenue. Every bottleneck, misaligned team, or broken process is money left on the table.
Momentum: Scaling takes time. The sooner you commit, the sooner you can step into 2026 with systems that work, teams aligned, and processes that actually deliver results.
Investment: The Ops Edge Academy is $9,597—a fraction of the potential $75,000 annual loss from just a 5% inefficiency.
The cost of indecision: $75,000+ annually in lost revenue.
The cost of action: $9,597 once or $2,499 for four months.
