What People Are Saying…
“We hired Francesca to manage our calls for the Samurai Coaching Dojo. We loved Francesca’s energy and knowledge of the Dojo, along with her desire to be of service to others. We were able to trust that the background details were taken care of as we ran our calls, that attendance was tracked, that people were cared for, and that recordings were all set. I felt proud of our team for creating a powerful experience for the Samurai and I felt relief that we made it through. If you’re looking to hire somebody to be a cheerleader for what you're doing in the world, see and advocate for the parts of yourself you're ignoring, and care for your community, I recommend Francesca Woltanski.”
- Matt Thieleman, CEO of Pilea
“You’re worth your weight in gold. This is beyond perfect-- you are magic. Thank you for taking the initiative to do this so eloquently. You’re such an embodiment of love - the love that you are the that you bring to everything that you do and every person you interact with. It’s what made you excel here.”
-Demi McConkie, Business Coach + CEO of AP Leadership
“Francesca has a heart for both people and the systems that set them up for success. I have experienced this as one of her life coaching clients, as well as in our collaboration in producing the Simply Biz Besties Podcast. One of her core values, and indeed one of her great strengths, is connection. She demonstrates this by asking pertinent questions at exactly the right time, communicating clearly, and offering excellent solutions that lead to deeper connection and cohesion within a team. On the Simply Biz Besties Team, Francesca took on the role of keeping us on task and she was pivotal in simplifying and streamlining our processes so that we could deliver an excellent podcast season. She cares deeply for the people she works with and will go above and beyond to see them succeed.”

Samples of My Work…
Before
My client was losing precious hours because her onboarding workflow was almost 100% manual. She was needed in so many steps of the process meaning it was hard for her to go on vacation without worrying what would happen to her business while she was gone!
After
My client went from nearly a dozen tasks she had to be a part of to JUST SHOWING UP ON THE CALL! In addition, she saved hundreds of dollars because her systems were doing the work for her and her team!
Making decisions can prove challenging when you don’t have a system especially when emotions are involved! I created this for a client who wanted to declutter her Facebook groups so she could spend her time marketing inside of getting constantly distracted.
We’ve all received an overly critical message at least once in our careers — which can so easily cause us to spin out. I created this for a client who wanted to get right back into serving her clients instead of worrying about what others were thinking about her.
I wrote this email to mark the celebratory end of my client’s group program.
This is from when I was managing a Slack Community. Here is one of my messages that I wrote for the group.
Here is an example of doing Community Management for Kelle Wynne Studios. You can see my replies under ‘Unfold with Kellee Wynne.’
What Other Clients Are Saying…
-Rachel A., Participant of AP Leadership Program
“Our communication started with you approaching me with something to help me out. It set me up to feel very trusting with you. Your voice messages = instant calm. It made me feel safe to open up. I actually think it’s quite brave to open yourself up like that to a complete stranger.”
- Marei L., Potential Client
- Hilary M., AP Leadership, Customer Concierge
“I’m in awe of your strength, wisdom, and joy. With your kindness, I feel more open. I feel kinder. It makes me feel like kindness is possible for me.”

Why I’m Perfect for Senior Project Manager…
I Thrive on Efficiency
From as long as I can remember, I have been creating systems for myself and my family to make life easier. In high school (to my mom’s chagrin), I created a binder that showed my family exactly how to keep the kitchen clean, organize the fridge, and do the laundry. I had exact to-dos, descriptions, and even before and after pictures! Looking back, I can now see totally pointed to what I’m doing now! I love moving complex projects forward within the boundaries of scope, budget, and time. I can walk into any system and find my way around, and I love using the right systems to make project management automated and seamless. Efficiency is something I am always seeking because I believe it creates better experiences for everyone when things are streamlined, communication is at its best, so many precious hours are saved!
I Love Connecting with People Online
While some people find interacting online terrifying, I find it so much fun! I think it’s a perfect way to build relationships and provide excellent customer service. I love making recommendations and referrals to connect people to the help they need. I value clear, honest, and heartfelt communication, and I’m not afraid to set boundaries when needed. This makes me perfect for client management because people instantly feel my warmth, know I’m there for them when they need me, and also still respect the boundaries I so dearly work to protect.
Detail Oriented + Reliable
While my intuition makes me incredible with interacting online as a coach, my attention to detail shows up the strongest in my work as an online business manager. This is where I can solve tangible problems for people like “not having enough time” by streamlining their processes with simple systems, or finding perfect solutions to customers’ pain points. It’s my favorite! This makes me uniquely qualified for this role. In addition, it makes me the perfect project manager. I’m able to both communicate deadlines and ensure projects are done on time as well as manage the systems to steamline processes!
