Linda A. Hamilton
As an award-winning CPA with over 30 years of experience and the founder of Grow, Profit, Scale (GPS), a strategic business advisory firm for women business owners, I am passionate about helping entrepreneurs create growth plans that focus on hiring, scaling, and exiting their businesses successfully. My mission is to empower business owners, particularly women, to achieve financial and personal independence by creating businesses that run like clockwork. I specialize in implementing the SYSTEMology approach, one of the pillars of my Grow, Profit, Scale process, which focuses on creating efficient, up-to-date, and easy-to-follow systems that enable businesses to scale and build value.
Using my signature Grow, Profit, Scale process, I identify and close gaps in revenue, profit, operations, finances, and planning. With certifications in exit and succession planning, systems, CPA, and business planning, I offer a holistic approach to business growth and profitability. As a certified exit planning advisor and SYSTEMologist, I collaborate with teams of advisors to provide comprehensive insights and strategies tailored to your unique business needs. Through business coaching, mastermind groups, and the Grow, Profit, Scale system, I empower women to achieve their entrepreneurial goals. If you’re ready to explore opportunities to systemize your business, improve processes, and build a strong team culture, I invite you to connect with me on LinkedIn, email me, or book an introductory call.
If you're like most business owners, this probably sounds familiar...
- You love the idea of systemizing your business but don’t know where to start and how to turn that into an actionable plan.
- You've tried to build business systems before but your team doesn’t follow them, so you’ve given up on the idea.
- Your business has a few systems but they’re scattered all over the place, and you're using all kinds of tools making it hard to train new staff.
- You struggle to stay on top of the seemingly endless list of tasks you need to handle, and you’re not enjoying running your business...
The good news is that if you feel trapped in your business, you don’t have to stay there!
We all want our business to run with the precision of a Swiss watch, and we know systems are the key.
The trouble is that all too often, business owners get stuck in the day-to-day operations…
They think they need to be the ones to create the systems themselves, but they’re too busy working in their business to find the time.
What ends up happening is they get stuck in a loop of not having time to create systems, even though they know that having systems would create more time for them…
That approach is what keeps businesses stuck in survival mode.
To get out of survival mode and systemize your business so it runs predictably without the business owner, you need a different approach.
To successfully systemize, you need:
- A way to create systems consistently without the business owner.
- A way to ensure all the critical systems are documented, organized, and followed.
- A way to maximize the performance of your systems so the business is efficient, profitable, and scalable.
- A way to get complete buy-in from your team to adopt a systems culture.
Thankfully, a proven approach already exists...
Introducing SYSTEMology
Seven stages of business systemization.
The SYSTEMology® process is the most effective way for you to transform an owner-centric, zero-systems business into one that operates like a well-oiled machine.
It is quite literally the system for systemizing business.
Within as little as three months, a certified SYSTEMologist can document the mission-critical systems within your business.
This immediately improves your team’s efficiency, increases the value of your business, and frees the business owner from day-to-day operations.
SYSTEMology will help you...
Improve Team Efficiency
Stop showing and correcting your staff on how to complete tasks. Document your smart operating procedures (SOPs) once, have your team follow them, and skyrocket your time efficiency and profitability.
Increase Business Value
Well-documented processes and procedures detailing your business’s “way” are the most important assets within your business—just look at McDonald’s, Subway, and Starbucks. It’s time to start building those assets!
Free The Business Owner
Building a business on the foundation of well-documented systems makes it consistent, profitable, and scalable. Best of all, it allows day-to-day operations to run without you, giving you ultimate freedom.
Here's how it works...
Watch the video from SYSTEMology founder David Jenyns to learn how the seven stages of SYSTEMology work to free business owners from the day-to-day operations of their business.

FAQs
As you can imagine, this question is a difficult one to answer. All businesses are different—from the level of products and services offered to the size of the organization. That said, typically, a business can see the positive impacts from the systemization of its operations within as little as 90 days.
While it’s important for the business owner to begin the process, it is really the team that will carry this process through to completion. The SYSTEMology process was actually designed for your team. Accordingly, we recommend that businesses have a minimum of three staff members and get them all involved. This could include full-timers, part-timers, and/or contractors.
For larger teams, include your leadership team and department heads to drive this forward.
