by proving that, with the right approach, their systems and automations can work like a bonus brain as brilliant as they are.

Fun Facts About Us
Courtney Lazar's journey to founding SystemsUp® traces its roots back to her initial foray into the tech industry at a San Francisco based remote startup, and the disillusionment with traditional 9 to 5 roles in Missouri.
Meet the backend brain and founder behind SystemsUp®, Courtney Lazar!
While juggling her corporate job, she pledged to pivot to entrepreneurship, eventually dedicating herself entirely to her vision.
Courtney's evolving passion for technology and systems guided her to refine her business focus towards what truly energized her. This focus led her to evolve her business into SystemsUp®.
Her path took a pivotal turn after drawing inspiration from "The 4-Hour Work Week" by Tim Ferriss particularly the concept of merging one's skills with passions to create a fulfilling career.
This pivot has allowed her to serve her clients more effectively, tailoring solutions that streamline their operations and enhance their efficiency, ultimately helping them achieve their own business goals.
Today, SystemsUp® stands as a testament to her journey of self-discovery and her commitment to transforming her expertise into a thriving business centered around technology and systems optimization.

Meet Your Setup Team!
Today, the foundation of SystemsUp® is built on our goal to provide custom systems design and education for fast-growing businesses and agencies that need more than automations — they need a backend brain as brilliant as they are!
Since then, she has devoted her time to expanding team SystemsUp® and helping business owners uplevel their systems.
Well, ask around and it’s easy to see: so many business owners are creatives who prefer to DO instead of worry about what the DOING entails.
So they grow scattered teams, have a range of half-finished systems full of holes, and rely on their brains and memories to do most of the heavy lifting – effectively making CEO’s the bottleneck.
Why is that?
While tech is the underpinning of every single online business, for some reason: we’re an industry that almost always leaves systems and tech ‘til the very last second. Or, two years too late.
What We’re Seeing Happening…
it feels wildly intimidating now to even consider rethinking how the thing is designed.
While SOME of our clients will come to get their systems done first, most don’t, because they’ve been so busy building the plane as they’ve flown it,
Add to that the fact their businesses, teams, and way of thinking are all wildly unique – and they realize they also don’t WANT someone else’s system anyway. In a perfect world, they’d have PM software and tools that flowed exactly the way their mind does. Preferably installed in a way that doesn’t require them to slow down.
And right now they’re climbing to 7 and 8-figure cruising altitude in what amounts to a tech jalopy, messily built on years of “I’ll do it myself” and band-aid fixes.
That's where SystemsUp steps in.
