"Big Law" to Operations Management Consulting
Hi there! I'm Asli — founder of Operations Mavenue.
Before this, I was a corporate lawyer at DLA Piper, one of the world's largest "Big Law" firms.
I had a great run climbing the ladder — but I'm an entrepreneur at heart, and that eventually wins. 🙂 So I took the leap.
I left to build something I care about more: helping business owners get out of the operational chaos and build companies that don't depend entirely on them.
At Operations Mavenue, we do one thing, and we do it really well: we build your systems and SOPs, and develop a strong, scalable Operations Manual for your business — in Notion.
How It All Started
Operations Mavenue started with a book — The E-Myth by Michael Gerber. If you've read it, you'll know that feeling of everything suddenly clicking into place.
I was so inspired that I built an Operations Manual for my own business at the time.
The difference was almost immediate — my team ran more consistently, onboarding stopped being painful, and I could actually step back.
Mr. Gerber was right!
I then started building manuals for my partner's business, a couple of friends', and then clients.
Things grew pretty swiftly from there — to a team of go-getters and the hundreds of manuals you see today.
Our Vision
Our vision is simple: every business — big or small, one location or ten — should be running on a real, documented system, not held together by memory and good intentions.
Our mission is to build that system for them, properly, once.
We believe every business deserves an Operations Manual. Not a binder that sits in a drawer. Not a folder of half-updated docs across five different tools. A real, living system that shows exactly how your business runs, so it doesn't all live in your head, or in the heads of the two or three people who've been there the longest.
Because once that exists, everything else gets easier:
- Hiring and training stops depending on someone senior repeating the same explanation for the hundredth time.
- Delegating actually means handing off ownership, not just tasks you still have to check on.
- Running day to day stops routing back through you for every small decision.
- Scaling — a new hire, a new location, a new market — stops meaning "figure it out from scratch again."
- Growing starts looking like the business you set out to build, instead of the one that grew around you by accident.
We've watched what happens without one: inconsistency, burnout, a business that can't run without specific people in the room, and a ceiling on growth that has nothing to do with demand and everything to do with what's actually documented.
So that's what we do. We build that system for you — properly, once — so it's not stuck in your head anymore.
It's yours, it's organized, and it's there for whoever needs it, whenever they need it.
Why Should We Work Together?
Because we get it.
You've built something valuable — but the way it actually runs lives in conversations, email threads, and the heads of a handful of key people, not in a system anyone else can follow.
You've tried numerous ways to fix this. Nothing has stuck.
Your SOPs, checklists, and workflows are scattered across shared drives, tools, and inboxes. Different people, teams, or locations end up doing the same thing differently. Your team gets lost trying to find the right information. Half of what does exist isn't even up to date.
You have the drive to grow — hire more people, open new locations, enter new markets, maybe even franchise. But the know-how that actually makes your business run lives in people's heads, not on paper — so training new hires, or standardizing across a team that's already grown past what one person can oversee, feels painful every. single. time.
You want it documented, properly, once. You want everything stored in one organized, easy-to-navigate hub — where your team, at any location, can actually find and use what they need.
You see? We get it. 🙂
Many of our clients came to us with the exact same frustration — everywhere from a handful of employees to multi-site operations. We built a well-structured, highly functional, practical Operations Manual for them, in Notion.
We'll do the same for you. We've done it countless times.
