You’ve outgrown the fluff of masterminds and the one-size-fits-all promises of generic group coaching programs. What you need now is not more ideas. You need a high-level executive team in your corner—experts who don’t just cheerlead from the sidelines, but who audit, advise, and edit every part of your business with you.

You’ve outgrown masterminds and generic group coaching programs- and What you need now is not more ideas or information. You need a high-level executive team in your corner... experts who don’t just cheerlead from the sidelines, but who audit, advise, and help you implement the real structural shifts that will allow you to scale.

When you step into The C-Suite, you’re not joining a cohort of other business owners. You're not getting a curriculum to follow and a group chat to check in.
You’re getting a team of expert advisors focused on you & your business.
That means three consultants (marketing, operations, and systems/strategy) working WITH you to rebuild your business from the inside out- advising, editing, and guiding your progress every step of the way.
It’s the inverse of every group program you’ve ever joined. You're not one of many, you're the focus of an entire team- and you’re getting our eyes, brains, and hands on every part of your business.
This is not a mastermind or a group coaching program- it's a private, high-touch consulting container with built-in implementation support.

HERE'S HOW WE OPERATE (THE COLE'S NOTES VERSION):
→ First we audit your business so thoroughly & deeply that you'll be adding us to Close Friends after a week.
→ Then we ruthlessly remove dead ends, friction points, sticky bits, and anything keeping you small & stuck.
→ Next, we map out exactly what needs to happen, break it down into clear steps, and help you execute week by week- jumping in to edit, redesign, rewrite, etc as we go so you don't get held up.
→ In doing so we refine your offers, elevate your messaging, help you install smart, simple systems, and streamline your marketing so you’re not doing MORE... you're doing the right things REALLY well (and really easily.)
And... we stay on top of you & your work to make sure you're never left spinning or stuck, Honestly, prepare to be sick of us- because we know you're busy, we know things get overwhelming, and we're not going to let you fall off.
This is not a one-size fits all sales strategy that adds 10 things to your to-do list and a tiny temporary bump in revenue if you're lucky... *cough*
This is me and my team, rolling up our sleeves and digging into your business WITH you- so that at the end of our six months together you have a business that runs smoother, pays you better, and feels lighter.
The C-Suite is a 6-month consulting container built for skilled online business owners who are ready for real, tactical support from experts who will not let you lose.

The C-Suite is built for business owners who’ve already proven they can make money... but are smart enough to know that duct-taped delivery, chaotic marketing, and burnout-based leadership won’t scale.
When you join, you don’t get “support.”
You get your executive team.
A CMO who sharpens your positioning, rewrites your funnel, and makes your sales assets irresistible
A COO who turns your backend into a clean, clockwork machine
A CTO/CFO who simplifies your tech, clarifies your metrics, and protects your profit
Because at this stage, you don’t need more marketing ideas or standalone sales-strategies- you need your infrastructure re-architected.
Most business programs leave you guessing... We get it done together.
alright let's goo
“I was fluctuating between $6k-$8k a month and knew I was capable of more.. but every time I tried to start big projects that I thought would help me scale, I either got discouraged and gave up or got so busy they never got done. The C-Suite changed that. I've gotten more done for my own business in the last three months than I have in the last three years."
oh look, it's me!
this is the right move for you if...
✅ You’re experienced, skilled, and know your stuff, but your business is 100% reliant on YOUR constant effort & intelligence (and you're handling it, as always... but you're tired)
✅ You’re guilty of what I call "patchwork panic-marketing" AKA reactive, immediate need-driven posting as opposed to calm, consistent, strategic marketing
✅ You’re ready for action- you don't want more information, you want transformation... and you're ready to accept advice and hands-on audits & edits from other experts to make it happen.
✅ You’re comfortable making a smart investment in your business and trust yourself to show up and participate.. because you know if you do, you literally cannot lose.
✅ You want to build a business that runs smoother, pays better, and feels lighter. You're not looking for the made-up "laptop lifestyle" fantasy... but you DO want more free time, and you want to be productive, profitable, AND peaceful.
❌ You’re brand new and still figuring out your niche or first offer
❌ You’re looking for a DIY course or mindset coaching.
❌ You're not in a position to invest in your business right now
❌ You’re not willing to make decisions, receive feedback, or shift how you operate
❌ You’re not going to show up and engage with us so we can help you
this is not suitable for you if...
“Melissa has built something real—not fluff, not ‘just think positive’ advice, but actual systems that work. This isn’t about pretending life is easy while secretly outsourcing everything to a full-time team. It’s designed for real business owners who are juggling a million things and need a system that fits their life. And that’s why it works.”
“Melissa’s programs have given me my time back. They have helped me make so much money in my business and streamlined things so much! Yes, you have to sit down and do the work, but the tools inside Ready Set Scale and The AI Advantage make it as easy as possible. I now have systems that work without me constantly managing them, and that has been invaluable.”

Instead of tips, tactics and a group chat... we're offering architecture, action & accountability.
Most business programs leave you with a pile of content, a vague strategy, and a “you go Glen Coco!” The C-Suite is built differently. This isn’t about throwing more information at you. It’s about handing you a smarter, faster, and more sustainable way to scale—without the stress, second-guessing, or 60-hour workweeks.
The C-Suite is closing the coaching gap.
MONTH 1: OFFER CLARITY + BUSINESS MODEL AUDIT
We kick off with a deep, diagnostic audit of your offers, pricing, delivery, and business model to expose leaks, isolate opportunities, and engineer a monetization plan that aligns with your actual capacity and audience demand.
MONTH 2: BACKEND SYSTEMS, DELEGATION, AND OPS
This is where we rebuild your internal infrastructure—systematizing your workflows, simplifying delivery, and designing team-ready SOPs so your business stops relying on you to function.
MONTH 3: MESSAGING, BRAND, AND POSITIONING
We define your strategic voice, core beliefs, and differentiators—then build a messaging system that elevates your authority, strengthens your pitch, and translates into consistent, high-converting content.
MONTH 4: SALES ASSETS, FUNNEL, WEBSITE
Together, we optimize every surface where sales happen—from funnel flows to website messaging to email sequences—so your assets do the heavy lifting and your conversions no longer hinge on manual effort.
MONTH 5: VISIBILITY + AUTHORITY GROWTH
We establish your marketing focus with a visibility plan built around your strengths—mapping out short- and long-term strategies across organic, collaborative, and search-driven channels to build durable reach.
MONTH 6: LAUNCH, EVERGREEN, OR EXIT STRATEGY
We close with either a launch, evergreen growth, or exit plan—backed by a performance review, financial snapshot, and custom 90-day roadmap that gives you clear next steps and continued control.
Here's what your next six months with us looks like:

I’m Melissa Rodgers — marketing consultant, mindset mentor, and unapologetically obsessed with helping women build profitable, peaceful businesses without the burnout.
I’ve spent the last decade in the online marketing world, blending behavioral neuroscience, consumer psychology, and people-first strategy to help female founders scale with intention. My frameworks have reached over 30 million people online and helped my clients generate millions in revenue — not with hustle or hype, but with smart, scalable systems that actually work. I’ve helped hundreds of service providers, coaches, and course creators streamline their businesses, reclaim their time, and grow sustainably (without losing their minds or sacrificing their standards).
As a single mom of two with a backstory that, honestly, belongs on HBO… I know what it’s like to juggle ambition, responsibility, and real life. I built this business in the cracks of chaos, and I’m here to help you build yours... but smarter, faster, and more easily than I did.
My mission is simple: to help high-achieving women like you redefine success on your own terms, step fully into your CEO energy, and use AI-assisted marketing to make more money with less stress.
If you’re ready to scale your business and prioritize yourself without sacrificing your sanity... you're in the right place.
And then we build a smarter structure:
- Offers that are profit-optimized and market-resilient.
- Ops that don’t need your fingerprints on every deliverable.
- Visibility that isn’t chaotic, it’s mechanical.
- Marketing that doesn't rely on you spiraling into a launch panic to work
THIS IS NOT BUSINESS COACHING. It’s a consulting-first growth lab built for business owners who are beyond coaching containers and ready for customized supporT

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do you help me make back my investment quickly?
We don’t let you wait six months for a return. Within the first three weeks, you’ll receive a personalized custom cash injection strategy based on your assets, audience, and capacity. This isn’t fluff. You’ll walk away from Month 1 with either a fast-turnaround campaign (e.g., a downsell, promo, flash sale) or a high-leverage offer shift designed to bring cash in quickly. Melissa will work on this with you while Liz and Brie dig deep into auditing, so we get the money ball rolling WHILE beginning our optimization work.
Q: What if I don’t have time to add another thing to my plate right now?
You don’t need another thing. You need a smarter container for everything you're already doing. We’re not asking you to add, we’re helping you subtract and streamline.. Our job is to audit what’s taking up your time and energy, eliminate non-revenue-producing tasks, and re-engineer your systems and strategy so you can work less and earn more. If you’re busy, overwhelmed, or spread too thin, this is the exact right time.
Q: What happens if something comes up during the six months (travel, health, personal issues)?
This isn’t a race. Our structure includes on-demand guidance, recorded support, and weekly progress check-ins that flex with real life. If something interrupts your flow, we recalibrate. You won’t “fall behind,” because the pace is custom-fit to your reality- and we’re not here to grade your performance, we’re here to get results. If an extenuating circumstance comes up and you need to pause temporarily, we will adjust accordingly.
Q: Can I go at my own pace or is there a set schedule I have to follow?
There’s no one-size-fits-all timeline here. The C-Suite is a consulting & implementation container, but it is highly customized to your needs. We use monthly benchmarks and weekly touchpoints to keep you on track, but everything is shaped around your priorities and capacity. We will hold you accountable to completing tasks that could bottleneck us- but you will have so much support and direction that we're confident you’ll never be behind.
Q: What if I don’t feel ‘ready’ or I still feel scattered in my business?
That’s exactly why we built this. You don’t need to be more organized or more confident. You need better support. The C-Suite begins with a full business audit- offers, systems, brand, marketing, and team. From there, we rework the foundations to create a business that makes sense, makes money, and feels good to run. We meet you where you are without judgment, get rid of the scattered, chaotic feeling, and build the clarity with you.
Q: Is this only for people with a team or more established businesses?
Nope. Whether you’re a solo operator or have a small team, this works. We meet you where you are. If you’re scaling beyond 5K–10K/month and feel like your business is held together by duct tape, we help you rebuild the infrastructure for growth- with or without a team. We’ll guide you through what to delegate, what to automate, and what to stop doing entirely.
Q: Is this only for coaches? I’m a service provider / consultant / course creator/ small business owner. Does this still work for me?
Absolutely. Our framework is built for business owners who deliver any kind of transformation- whether that’s through services, strategy, education, or expertise. We’ve worked with doulas, designers, OBMs, therapists, educators, fitness pros, and beyond. If you sell something that solves a problem, we can help you structure it to scale. Additionally, if you have a an offline business with online marketing needs, we can support you with an adapted version of our consulting framework designed to meet your needs more specifically.
Q: How is this different from a mastermind or 1:1 coaching?
This is not group coaching, and it’s not a mastermind. You’re not joining a circle of peers. You’re hiring a team. The C-Suite is a consulting container where you get access to three experts with deep specializations in marketing & messaging, client-facing & marketing operations, team-building, systems & software, and financial optimization. We work together behind the scenes and directly with you collaboratively to optimize your entire business. You’re the CEO. We are your executive team.
Q: What if I’ve tried other programs before and didn’t get results?
You’re not the problem. The container was. Most programs overload you with content and underdeliver on implementation. We do the opposite. This is not about more information- it’s about execution. You’ll have real experts inside your business giving you the plan and helping you carry it out. No more spinning out. No more self-coaching your way through messes. We're going to be ALL up in your business, your inbox, and your slack channel to make sure you don't fall off.
Q: What if I’m neurodivergent / burned out / overwhelmed... can I still succeed in this?
Yes. We built this for real humans with real nervous systems, and our team is made up of determined, intelligent women who operate very successfully in spite of neurodivergence, life circumstances, and just about any other obstacle you can think of. We GET IT- and our systems are intentionally low-stimulation and high-support. You’ll get guidance that adapts to your capacity, implementation that reduces your workload, and accountability that respects your pace. This isn’t hustle culture. We know what it's like, and we've got SO many resources to help you not survive, but thrive, as a business owner.
Q: What exactly do I get when I join?
You get six months of full-spectrum consulting, customized to your business. We start with a deep-dive business audit and create your 90-Day Revenue Map. Then, we move through three distinct phases: revenue acceleration, systems redesign, and brand/marketing recalibration. Each month includes collaborative planning, implementation support, and expert-led consulting.
Q: Who will I be working with- and how much access do I have to the team?
You’ll be working with Melissa (vision, offers, messaging, strategy), Liz (ops and client care), and Brie (systems, software, and team-building). Each team member brings expertise in a distinct area- but we work together on your business. You’ll have a lead point of contact and consistent check-ins to keep you moving. You’re never on your own.
Q: Is this a group program or a mastermind?
It’s private consulting- with a team. You’re not inside a cohort. You’re not on group calls. This is a private client container where our team works directly with you. You’ll receive guidance, audits, templates, and implementation help customized to your business goals, capacity, and needs.
Q: How do the weekly action items and monthly reports work?
Each week, you’ll receive a concise set of action steps tailored to your plan. Each month, you’ll get a progress report recapping what’s been completed, what’s coming next, and where to focus. We keep you organized, clear, and moving forward without overwhelm, and without judgement.
Q: What kind of support do I get between calls?
You’ll have ongoing access to your consulting team via your private portal. We review deliverables, provide feedback, edit your work, and give you support between strategy calls. You’re not left waiting until the next meeting to get help.
Q: What are the calls like—and what if I can’t attend live?
Calls are focused, strategic, and led by the expert most relevant to the topic. They’re recorded and recap notes are provided. We do require you attend your calls live, but we are happy to accomodate your schedule to ensure you can book at a workable time for you each month.
Q: What if I need help implementing something technical?
We don’t leave you stuck. While we’re not a DFY agency, we do provide templates, SOPs, tech stack recommendations, and guided implementation support. We have a tech VA on hand for small tasks (included in your package) and if something requires hands-on work beyond our the scope, we can refer to our own trusted providers or communicate with yours to ensure the job gets done in alignment with your goals.
Q: What happens after the six months is over?
You’ll have a fully optimized business structure, streamlined operations, scalable offers, and a marketing system that actually reflects your genius. After 30 days we will have a follow-up call to tie up any loose ends and ensure you are clear on your next steps. If you want continued access to the team, you’ll have the option to renew in on a quarterly basis, but this is entirely optional.
Q: What kinds of results have people gotten from working with you?
Clients have added as much as $80K in new revenue within months of working with us, cut their active work hours in half, restructured broken business models, created high-converting marketing systems, and finally felt in control of their business again. The biggest thing we hear though is that our clients feel RELIEF almost immediately after signing on with us... because this isn't vague, you-go-girl advice. It’s what happens when experts step into the engine room with you.
Q: Will this help me make sales right away-nor is this more long-term?
Both. We want you to start getting ROI right away- so the first 30 days are about immediate cash and clarity. We will discuss your existing model and options with you during onboarding and create a realistic plan to recoup your invesment as quickly as possible. Then we zoom out to fix the entire infrastructure of your business- offers, systems, delivery, marketing, and capacity. You’ll see short-term sales AND long-term sustainability... No more feast-and-famine cycles!
Q: Can you help with launches / evergreen funnels / marketing systems / operations / hiring?
Yes. This isn’t niche-specific support. We assess your goals and focus on the highest-leverage areas to reach them. That could mean reworking your evergreen funnel, redesigning your offer suite, hiring a VA, rebuilding your backend, or fixing your messaging. While we do have an internal process and structure, we meet your business where it’s at.
Q: What if I already have working offers but I want to scale them- does this still apply to me?
Yes. Many of our clients are already making fantastic money... but it’s unsustainable or uncertain. We optimize the business around what works, cut the waste, refine the delivery, and build in systems that support scale. Then we add in safety mechanisms to protect that revenue and give them breathing room to enjoy their success and show up the way they want to!
Q: Do I need to have a big audience or email list for this to work?
No. We work with clients who have small-but-engaged audiences and help them monetize more effectively, we work with clients who have only ever needed referrals, and we work with clients who have no real formal marketing in place. During your onboarding audits we thoroughly assess your current marketing assets, including audience, and strategize accordingly.
Q: How customized is this? Will this be tailored to me and my business?
Every step is personalized. From your Cash Injection Action Plan to your weekly task list, we’re tailoring the strategy to your actual business, capacity, offers, and goals. Nothing is copy/paste. Nothing is generic. It’s strategic support built specifically for you, engineered by a team of experts with different specialties- so everything we do is looked at from every angle, and all the bases are covered.
