NLYB — Next Level Your Business

Your business
should run
without you
carrying it.

NLYB is a 90-day AI Transformation Sprint for professional services businesses. We diagnose what's slowing you down, deploy automations that actually work, and embed change that lasts — so you can stop managing and start leading.

The problem

Brilliant businesses run on
manual chaos.

Most professional services businesses between 10 and 75 people have the same problem. The team is good. The clients are there. But the operation eats the founder's week alive — because nobody ever stopped to fix the foundations.

The tools were never the problem. The problem is that nobody ever designed how they work together — and nobody had the time to stop and do it properly. That's exactly what the sprint is for.

See if your business is ready →
  • Manual processes that were always "temporary" — and are still running years later, owned by nobody, costing everyone.
  • Tools that promised to save time — and somehow added three new admin tasks to someone's plate instead.
  • AI that sounded transformational in the demo — and sits unused after the first three weeks because nobody knows how to embed it.
  • A business that needs you to be present for every decision — which means it's working you, not the other way around.
  • Consultants who delivered a slide deck — and disappeared before anything actually changed.

How it works

From enquiry to results
in five steps.

No ambiguity. No slow starts. A clear process from first contact to a business that runs differently.

01
Take the free AI Readiness Diagnostic
20 questions. 12 minutes. You receive a personalised Transformation Blueprint™ showing your readiness score, your top 3 automation opportunities, and your recommended starting point.
02
Book a 30-minute discovery call
A direct conversation about your diagnostic results and whether the sprint is the right fit right now. No pitch. If it's not the right fit, Shabina will say so.
03
Clarity Audit (optional but recommended)
A 2-hour deep-dive to map your specific workflows and confirm the automation architecture for your sprint. Fully credited if you go ahead.
04
Sprint starts — 8 sessions over 90 days
Diagnose, design, deploy, embed. You receive the onboarding pack and questionnaire the day your deposit clears. Session 1 is within the week.
05
Handover — your team owns it
The sprint ends with live automations, a trained team, full documentation, and 30 days of post-sprint support. The business runs differently, and your team can sustain it.
Honest answers
"IS THIS JUST ANOTHER CONSULTANT?"
No. Most consultants hand you a slide deck and leave. NLYB builds the thing and stays until it works. The sprint doesn't end until automations are live, your team can run them, and you have documented proof of what changed.
"DO WE HAVE TIME FOR THIS?"
The sprint is designed around 8 fortnightly sessions of 60 minutes each. The heavy lifting is done by NLYB, not your team. Most clients find the sprint gives them time back faster than it takes.
"IS THE INVESTMENT WORTH IT?"
At 9.5 hours reclaimed per week and an average hourly value of £150, the sprint pays back inside 5 months — and keeps paying. The Clarity Audit at £1,500 is fully credited, so the real risk is under 4 hours of your time.
FREE · 12 MINUTES · INSTANT RESULTS

Find out exactly where your
business is losing time.

20 questions across four areas — business profile, operations, tools and AI, and team readiness. You'll receive a personalised score, your top 3 automation opportunities, and a recommended starting point. No email required to see your results.

Takes 12 minutes · No email required · Instant Transformation Blueprint™

A small number of founding
sprint places are open now.

NLYB works with a deliberately small number of clients at a time. That means you get genuine attention — not a templated programme. If you're ready to move, the conversation starts with the diagnostic.
