You built a business. Now it won't run without you.

In two days, pull every role out of your head and build the HR system to hand it off, with AI doing the heavy lifting.

Live virtual workshop · Founding cohort limited to 10 owners

Does this sound like you?

  • You're doing payroll at 11 p.m. after a full day of serving customers.
  • You're the owner, the admin, the hiring manager and sometimes the cleaner.
  • There's a conversation with an employee you've been avoiding for weeks.
  • Hiring feels like a gamble, so you keep doing it yourself.
  • You can't remember the last day off where your phone stayed quiet.

You don't need to work harder. You need a system that lets other people carry the load.

What you walk away with

Not notes. A working system you build during the workshop and use on Monday.

  1. Role cards

    Position descriptions for the first 2–3 roles you'll hand off.

  2. Three SOPs

    Step-by-step guides for your most repeated tasks, written with AI.

  3. Hiring kit

    Job post, interview questions and an onboarding checklist.

  4. Discipline template

    A clear, fair process for hard conversations, plus a practice script.

  5. 90-day roadmap

    What you stop doing, who takes it, and by when.

How the two days work

Day 1

Get it out of your head

See where your time really goes, then work through live hot seats to turn everything you do into clear roles someone else can own.

Day 2

Build the system

Create your SOPs, hiring kit and discipline process with AI, then work on the hardest part: letting go and stepping into the owner's seat.

Two half-days, about 4 hours each, live on Zoom. Dates announced to the waitlist first. A short intake form before Day 1 means we start building right away.

This is for you if

  • You own a small business with 1–15 staff, or you're about to hire
  • You're the bottleneck for most decisions and tasks
  • You have no real HR process for hiring, onboarding or discipline
  • You want your time back without losing quality

This isn't for you if

  • You're a solo business with no plans to hire
  • You already have an HR team and documented processes
  • You want a course to watch later rather than build live
Carol Banayos, founder of Business Snapshot

Hi, I'm Carol.

For nearly 20 years I've built position descriptions, desk audits and hiring packages. In the Manitoba Government, I built position descriptions (some from scratch) and did desk audits with managers, directors and executive directors. I also trained managers to write their own position descriptions and to build the recruitment and selection (hiring) packages for each of their departments and business areas.

Since 2015, I've done the same work for small and medium businesses: interviewing everyone, pulling out every role the owner was secretly doing, and building the HR systems to hand them off.

I used to do all of it by hand. Now AI does the heavy lifting, so what took me weeks takes you two days.

I also coach owners through the personal side: the stress, the fear of letting go and the burnout that comes from carrying everything alone. A system only works if you're ready to trust it.

  • Bachelor of Commerce (Honours), double major in Human Resources and Marketing, University of Manitoba (Asper School of Business)
  • Bachelor of Arts, major in Psychology, minor in Business, University of Manitoba
  • Certified Life and Executive Coach since 2015
  • HR Consultant with the Manitoba Government, advising on a portfolio of 300–400 employees
  • Based in Winnipeg

Questions

Do I need to be good with technology?
No. I walk you through every AI step live. If you can send an email, you can do this.
I tried ChatGPT and got generic junk. Why is this different?
Because the magic is in what you put in. We pull everything out of your head first, then AI turns it into real role descriptions and SOPs in minutes instead of weeks. You bring what you know. I bring the system. AI does the typing.
Is it live or recorded?
Live, on Zoom, in a small group so everyone gets time in the hot seat.
Does joining the waitlist commit me to anything?
No. You'll get the dates and price first, then decide.

Stop being the bottleneck in your own business.
