    Payroll eating the profit and no automated processes

Maria's Story

Maria ran her own property management company, but payroll was absorbing much of its profit. Coaching with Jay Berube gave her a place to work through labor, automation, and hiring decisions while keeping her personal goals in the plan.

  1. The Problem

    Maria launched her own property management company with a silent partner after bringing in most of the properties at her previous company. Then the market swung, new rules took effect, and payroll consumed more of the profit. Nothing in the business was automated, so every routine task still needed a person.

    “I knew I could do it. I had brought in almost all of the 340 properties we were managing but I was terrified to go out on my own. … Within 30 days I was up and running.”
  2. What Changed

    Maria began Executive Coaching with Jay Berube. Together they automated repeatable work, reduced payroll, and hired a Remote Team Member. Their sessions covered her numbers, labor, leads, hiring and firing decisions, and processes, alongside her personal goals.

    “It's truly individualized and personalized coaching. We talk about numbers, labor, leads, … accountability, hiring, firing, and processes. But we also talk about my personal goals. …”
  3. The Result

    Maria reports that she increased her profit by 300% in less than a year, and the business kept running through a volatile market. Jay also held her to the personal goals they had planned together, including trips to Italy and Puerto Rico.

    “… When I wanted to go to Italy and Puerto Rico Jay held me accountable and continued to check in to make sure that I had lined up my dates and my financial goals to make it happen.”
