Service Provider to CEO

Scale up, step back, and do what you actually love

Coaching for women with service-based businesses who want systems, clarity, and more time for what matters.

Does This Sound Like You?

🗜️You're the Bottleneck

Everything in your business goes through you; client work, admin tasks, marketing, etc. You have become the ‘Chief Everything Officer’ instead of the CEO, and you feel completely trapped.

Freedom Feels Far Away

You started your business because you wanted more freedom, but now you work more hours than you did as an employee. That book you want to write? The hobby you miss? They keep getting pushed aside.

🥵 Money Stress Despite Success

You're making good money, but you still feel financially stressed. You're not sure where it's all going or if you're making smart choices about growing your business.

😵‍💫 Growth Feels Overwhelming

You want to scale, but the thought of getting more clients or projects makes you panic. Working more hours is the exact opposite of where you

want to go.

You're successful, but you're tied down to your business. Deep down, you just want to create time and space to do other things.


The good news? There is. You just need the right systems, processes, and roadmap to get there.

Two Ways to Work With Me

Strategic Scaling Audit

A 2.5-hour deep dive to diagnose bottlenecks + build a 90-day roadmap

  • Review your clients, offers, marketing, and operations

  • Identify the bottlenecks holding you back

  • Clarify your most profitable opportunities

  • Receive a custom 90-Day Scaling Roadmap

Outcome: Walk away with clarity and a focused plan you can act on immediately.

Great if you want clarity before committing to deeper support.

Service Provider to CEO program

A 6-month program to build the systems, structure, and support you need to scale sustainably

  • Eliminate bottlenecks and reclaim your time

  • Upgrade your marketing for consistent clients

  • Improve profitability

  • Streamline operations with tech, AI, and delegation

  • Stay focused with a strategic growth plan + accountability

Outcome: Scale with confidence and create time for the projects and passions outside your business.

Best if you want hands-on support and full implementation.

Here's How We'll Transform Your Business

1. Business Bottlenecks

Problem: You're running every single process, keeping you stuck.

How We'll Fix it: Uncover what is slowing down your growth and explore where you want to be.

Outcome: You'll stop micromanaging, start delegating, and finally have space to focus on big-picture growth.

2. Client Clarity

Problem: You're trying to help everyone and ending up drained by low-value clients.
How We'll Fix it: Review your customer base, pinpoint the clients who actually fuel your growth, and learn what truly makes your best clients buy from you.

Outcome: You’ll know exactly who to target and why they should choose you, attracting ideal, high-paying clients.

3. Marketing Mojo

Problem: You're posting, networking, and trying everything, but lack consistent results.

How We'll Fix it: Examine your current marketing efforts, figure out what's actually working (and what's not), and hone in on the most effective marketing activities that highlight your strengths and attract the clients you want.

Outcome: You’ll save time and energy by ditching what doesn't work and leaning into marketing that consistently brings in ideal clients.

4. Money Map

Problem: You’re unsure where your money is going, or why there’s never enough left over.

How We'll Fix it: Dig into your cash flow and spot where you're leaking money, identify the revenue streams that will actually grow your business, and set financial goals and milestones so you can track your progress.

Outcome: You’ll have clarity around your cash flow, and the confidence to set and hit ambitious financial goals.

5. Operations Overhaul

Problem: Your processes are clunky, repetitive, or outdated, wasting your precious time.

How We'll Fix it: Map out your workflows, highlight inefficiencies, and bring in tech, AI and people to make your business run smoother.

Outcome: You will gain back time, along with the mental space to think strategically, serve clients at a higher level, and enjoy more of your life outside the business.

6. Growth Gameplan

Problem: Without a clear roadmap, you risk falling back into old patterns or chasing shiny objects.
How We'll Fix it: Create your step-by-step plan with clear goals, figure out what you should focus on, and where you want to spend your new-found time.

Outcome: You'll have a clear, accountable plan that keeps you focused, so you can grow your business without losing the extra time you've worked hard to create.

If you want to start small, begin with the Strategic Scale Audit to get your custom roadmap.

Meet Your Coach

Hi, I’m Nicole Troster. I know first-hand how easy it is to feel like your business is running you instead of the other way around. That’s why I’ve made it my mission to help women entrepreneurs step back, breathe, and finally build companies that support the lives they want.

Over the past seven years, I’ve supported hundreds of women entrepreneurs through coaching and as the founder of YSpace ELLA, an award-winning accelerator that’s helped more than 450 women-led ventures since 2020. Along the way, I created the Strategic Scaling Method, a simple framework that takes the guesswork out of growth and helps you put systems in place that actually work.

I’m not just about strategies and spreadsheets. I care deeply about helping you feel confident, capable, and in control of your business. My goal is to show you that scaling doesn’t have to mean sacrificing your time, your sanity, or the parts of life that matter most.

Who is This For?

  • Women with a service-based business

  • You know you are the bottleneck in every process and decision

  • You want more time for family, passion projects, or rest

  • You’re ready to implement proven systems that will help you scale without burning out

  • You want to invest in expert guidance rather than figuring it out alone

  • You can commit 2–3 hours each week to integrate the strategies
