I GET IT!
I've been there. For years, I woke up with a large To Do list that I put things off and only completed the easy, small tasks I thought I could do that day. It got me nowhere. That's when I discovered this framework for productivity, and I want to share it with you.
The Truth Is... It's Not Your Fault
My name is Debbie McCusker, and I've spent much of my career working with people just like you... struggling to develop systems that work to help you be more productive and reach your goals.
It seems now more than ever, we are expected to have so much productivity and be great at time management and project management, but no one helps you figure out a system to do all of this. The time management training world is full of so much noise on how to be more productive. It's nearly impossible to decode the steps to an effective strategy that works for you without someone guiding you all the way through the process to setup the right systems that work for you.
You see, the problem that so many people just like you struggle with is creating systems and strategies that work with your specific way of work and life.
I’ve spent years helping busy professionals up their productivity game by putting into place powerful strategies and methods that fit with their way of working.
The thing with time management and productivity is that you must develop, refine, and master systems that work with the way you work. This allows you to easily stick to the strategies that help you easily manage your time and tasks consistently.
That’s why I developed this program – to guide driven, busy professionals like you to create a productivity system that helps you take control of your schedule in less than 21 days.
The program not only includes the online course covering the topics below, but also includes Group Coaching. Our Group Coaching program gives you weekly conference calls, Q&A sessions, unlimited email contact with Debbie, and a Private Facebook Group to share successes, best practices, and more!
I can't wait for you to join and elevate your productivity!

My last client asked me to help him put together a system and teach him tools to help get more work done in less time...
When I first started working with Allen, he was trying to do the job of 3 people. He was an established leader in his industry, but struggled to learn the systems to get his business running smoothly.
He followed his old ways of doing things with pen and paper, but seemed to take longer to get things done because he would have to move documents to computer forms anyway, creating double work for himself and his team.
I explained to him what was missing was a system and tools to keep documents organized, and even setup templates to be able to create similar documents in less than half the time.
Soon after working together, his business turned into a well-oiled machine. Allen was able to maximize his productivity, and others started asking him to take on more work because he could get things done so easily and quickly. His business doubled and he was so thankful for helping him create a systematic model that made it all possible.
