How I Run Two Very Different Businesses Using Monday.com (and Automation)

August 04, 20253 min read

Yes, you can run a product brand and a consulting business without losing your mind.

People often ask me, “How do you keep it all straight between Bec Laut and Clubdayze?”

And the honest answer is:
I don’t.
Monday.com does.

Running one business is full-on. Running two that couldn’t be more different? That takes systems. Clean ones. Repeatable ones. Automated ones.

So today I’m opening the curtain on how I run a service-based consulting/coaching company and a growing eCommerce apparel brand — all from one platform.

And no, this isn’t sponsored fluff. This is me showing you the real workflows, automations, and wins from the trenches. Ready?


👩‍💻 First, why Monday.com?

Because it’s not “just” a task manager. It’s an operational control room.

It runs everything from content calendars to product launches, from client onboarding to supplier follow-up. You can customise it to match how you work, not the other way around.

And here’s the kicker:
It grows with you. You don’t need 50 different apps when one platform can connect the dots properly.

I use Monday.com to:

  • Automate workflows

  • Visualise timelines

  • Keep my team aligned (both in-house and offshore)

  • Reduce mental load

  • Know what’s happening across both brands at a glance

👕 Clubdayze: Product-Based Business Workflows

◾Inventory + Production Tracking

We track every product in our range, from design to delivery:

  • Sample status

  • Fabric orders

  • Factory timelines

  • Quality control

  • Stock arrival

  • Launch prep

Automation example:
When a product moves from “Production” to “Ready to Launch”, it triggers tasks across content, email marketing, and website updates — automatically.


Marketing Calendar

We run all our:

  • Product drops

  • Campaigns

  • Photo shoots

  • Influencer collabs

  • EDM schedules

Why it works: Everyone knows what’s going live when. No surprises. No last-minute panics.

◾Wholesale + Supplier Comms

Each stockist, supplier, and collaborator has their own contact card with notes, order history, terms, and next steps.

Automation example:
If a new stockist is marked as “Approved”, it triggers onboarding: invoice, terms, assets, and an intro email.


🧠 Bec Laut: Consulting + Course Business Workflows

◾Client Onboarding & Service Delivery

From a new Empower Hour to full implementation projects — every client has a board with:

  • Discovery notes

  • Call schedules

  • Deliverables

  • Resources

  • Progress updates

  • Linked documents

Automation example:
When a new client is added, it triggers task templates based on their service type — saving hours on admin and keeping my assistant in the loop.

◾Course Creation + Launches

From live rounds of E-commerce Elevation to evergreen sales funnels, we manage:

  • Module development

  • Portal updates

  • Launch calendars

  • Affiliate tracking

  • Student onboarding + check-ins

Why it works: Every piece of content, task, and timeline is visible. Launching doesn’t have to feel like a nervous breakdown.

◾Team & Task Management

I’ve got onshore and offshore team members. Monday.com keeps us synced without constant Slack pings.

Automation example:
When I assign a task to my VA, she gets a notification, and it’s automatically added to her weekly sprint board.


✍️ What I’ve Learned Using One Tool Across Two Businesses

  • You don’t need to split your brain.
    One tool, two workspaces, shared systems. It’s possible.

  • Automations = time back.
    Manual follow-ups? Gone. Repeating the same five onboarding steps? Automated.

  • Templates are your friend.
    We use pre-built templates for launches, shoots, onboarding, blogs, and monthly reporting.

  • Custom workflows > all-in-ones that don’t fit.
    You can make
    Monday.com work like a CRM, marketing tracker, inventory planner or operations doc — all in one.
