You’ve heard it before: “You need to stop working in your business and start working on it.”
Easier said than done when you’re the one unlocking the doors, answering every email, teaching the toughest clients, and holding it all together. When you’re a solopreneur or a hands-on owner, it feels impossible to step back—even when you know that staying stuck in the day-to-day is holding you back from growing.
But there is a way to do it.
It doesn’t happen overnight.
It doesn’t start with hiring a full team.
And it doesn’t mean walking away from what you’ve built.
It starts with small, intentional shifts.
One system. One documented process. One clear decision at a time.
In The Real Small Business Owners programs, we meet you at the very beginning of that journey—when you’re just starting to ask:
“How could I possibly do this differently?”
And then… we show you how.
working on the business sounds great, until you realize
- you are the business
Did you know that nearly half of small businesses don’t make it past their first three years, and less than 3% survive a full decade? These numbers aren’t just statistics—they represent dreams lost, communities impacted, and opportunities missed.
That’s why Lyndzi is making it her mission to change the narrative.
As a systems strategist and coach, she is passionate about empowering small business owners with the tools, clarity, and confidence they need to thrive. By helping them streamline their operations, build sustainable systems, and make informed decisions, she works to ensure that more businesses not only survive but succeed.
Small businesses are the backbone of our economy, and their success matters. Together, we can rewrite the statistics and create a future where small businesses—and the communities they serve—flourish.

The truth is, most businesses don’t fail because of a lack of passion, skill, or hard work. They fail because they lack the systems needed to keep everything running smoothly. Without the right processes in place, growth becomes impossible, and the weight of daily operations holds them back.
But it doesn’t have to be this way. By helping small business owners put the right systems in place, it can transform their businesses—and their lives—so they thrive, not just survive.
Introducing...
You’re not just a business owner.
You’re the marketing team, the customer service rep, the cleaner, the scheduler, the everything.
And somewhere along the way, no one told you that growing a business doesn’t mean doing more—it means doing it differently.
That’s where The Real Small Business Owner programs come in.
This is your starting point.
Your no-fluff, real-talk guide to what it actually takes to build a sustainable business from the inside out. We’re not here to sell you hype or hustle.
We’re here to teach you how to:
Start working on the business instead of drowning in it
Understand the systems that support real growth
Shift your mindset from overwhelmed operator to confident architect
You won’t need a team to get started.
You won’t need to overhaul your life.
You just need a willingness to learn—and the courage to stop pretending you’ve got it all figured out.
Because this is what most small business owners never get:
A place to begin.
Why These Programs Matter
Because most small business owners are doing everything—except building a business that can survive without them.
They’re working 60+ hours a week, juggling clients, staff, finances, and a thousand invisible tasks… and still feeling like they’re barely holding it all together.
The truth?
Passion got you started. But structure is what keeps you going.
These programs exist because small business success shouldn’t require burnout.
Because systems, strategy, and sustainability aren’t just for the “big guys.”
Because no one taught you how to run a business—you just figured it out as you went.
And now it’s time to do it differently.
These programs matter because:
They give you a starting point when you don’t know where to begin
They help you stop surviving and start building something that lasts
They show you the how, not just the what—so you can actually take action
They create structure around your chaos
And they give you back control, clarity, and confidence—without the guesswork
This isn’t about doing more.
It’s about finally doing the right things, in the right order, with the right support.
Because your business should work for you—not the other way around.
We Know You Just Want The Help....
Most small business coaches have high-ticket programs—and most of them require you to already be earning a certain amount just to qualify.
And you know what? We get it. 100%—we really do. We even have a program like that too.
But here’s the truth most people don’t talk about:
What about the business owner who just needs a starting point?
Who’s capable, driven, and trying—but just hasn’t been shown the path yet?
That’s why The Real Small Business Owners exists.
We’re not here to gatekeep growth.
We’re here to give you the foundation—so when you’re ready for that next-level coach, mastermind, or accelerator… you actually qualify.
Because you shouldn’t be disqualified from progress just because you’re still getting your systems together. You just need someone to show you where to begin.
Welcome to TRSBO.

You are the reason for my success...
You are the foundational reason that I have reached the level of success that I have. I could never have become a million dollar business or franchised my business in my first four years without your guidance and knowledge. Now here I am six years after our first meeting, and I have three locations all that are 6 and 7 figures. I am so glad that I made this investment. I will recommend you anytime.

I cannot say enough good things...
I just wanted to publicly acknowledge how awesome Lyndzi Barnes is!
I am currently doing her systems program and it is blowing my mind. She has organized it so well and in such a great way I can't say enough good things about it and I'm only in the first month of the lessons! I have wanted to systemize my business for so long and it always got put to the side. This year I am making it a priority and have already told my admin staff that my goal is to be out of the day-to-day side of my business by the end of this year. It's a huge goal but everyone is on board and excited about it. Thank you Lyndzi!!!

Hi! I’m Lyndzi – your go-to business coach for driven entrepreneurs ready to streamline, grow, and finally feel in control of their business.
Meet Your Coach
Back in 2015, after seven years of running my business solo, a health scare woke me up to the reality that the “solopreneur” approach wasn’t sustainable. Since then, I’ve built systems that allowed me to run multiple companies side by side, and my mission is to help other entrepreneurs get off the hamster wheel and avoid the overwhelm I once felt.
I want you to have a business that brings you freedom, fulfillment, and impact—not stress or burnout. If you’re already feeling trapped by the day-to-day demands, you’re in the right place. With every program, membership, and course, I’m here with you, guiding you to create a business that lets you have more—
more freedom, impact, time, and
yes, revenue.
There will come a point (or maybe you’re there now) where you simply can’t or don’t want to do things the way you have been doing it.
That’s where I come in—together, we’ll create systems to transform your business, so you can focus on what truly matters.
