What Entrepreneurs Are Saying

Julia Katsivo Carter — Founder, Successful Smart Business Co.

The person behind the business

Julia Katsivo Carter

Founder · Successful Smart Business Co.
Certified Business Coach · Speaker · Strategist

Julia built Successful Smart Business Co. in 2015 — after 7 years at the Canada Revenue Agency and 10 years with Fortune 500 firms — because she kept seeing the same story: talented, established entrepreneurs drowning in their own success. Revenue was there. The freedom wasn't.

Her approach is direct, systems-focused, and built around one belief — the structure that sets you free doesn't come from working harder. It comes from building smarter. That's what every coaching program, every SmartSystems© app, and every Smart Service is designed to do.

She is wife to an award-winning business owner of an accounting and bookkeeping firm, mother to two under two, and home is the shores of Lake Couchiching, Ontario, Canada. That full, busy household is the muse behind SmartSystems© — every app, from the family packing list to the thinking-game coach, begins with a gap she wished someone would fill.

"Build a business as structured as a Fortune 500 with the soul of a family diner."
