Whether you're a studio or solo founder, Creative Business Workspace (CBWS) is made to keep projects, clients and finances organised all in one clutter-free space. This pre-built workspace is designed to leave your busy mind clear to make more important decisions.

Your whole business in one place

  • Work + Client Portals

    Manage working on the business with tasks such as website copy or advertising and working in the business with client work. All your projects are clear with tasks broken down to give you mental freedom and clear direction on what needs to be done each day. Every client even has their own portal, making your service tailored and personalised.

  • Marketing and Sales

    Build content ideas from your in-built branding reference and plan, action and track your marketing and content through your content planner. Manage your current leads through the CRM system, while collecting more leads through the ready-to-share lead generation form.

  • Finances

    Unsure who owes you money? The in-built invoice tracker and finance tracker ensures you know when to chase up payments and when you can book your next vacation. Your monthly revenue and expenses are at your fingertips, creating a business that's sustainable and trackable.

  • Resources

    Your client process, back-end-systems, brand guidelines, offers and internal resources are all at your fingertips to easily sell, market and simplify your workflow. Never guess, run out of content ideas or get lost again.

Businesses feels hard because it's messy

When you're overwhelmed, confused, lost and lacking motivation, your business wobbles.

Everyday you're lost:

  • Projects are everywhere
  • Clients slip through cracks
  • Money is random
  • Growth is slow or non-existent
  • without Creative Business workspace

    The morning dread: Everyday you sit down and you're lost with what needs to be done for your business to generate clients and revenue. What's moving the needle or making a difference? You have no idea.

    "I'll get back to you" clients: Your potential clients all leave you on read because you look and act unreliable through unbranded invoices, no client process and no marketing.

    No idea about finances: You don't know how to price your offers, who owes you money or where your next paycheck is coming from. And you're probably behind on rent.

  • ☑️ With Creative Business workspace

    The morning clarity: You wake up and have a clear vision for the day. You know exactly what needs to be done because it's all in front of you.

    "Where do I sign?" clients: Potential clients view you as professional with your clear processes, timely invoices and branded documentation. No one questions your prices; just ready to work with you.

    Sustainable finances: Trackable with clear revenue and expenses, your business generates consistent income that allows you to book vacations in advance.

You don't need more tools and software

You just need one workspace to manage it all.

Clarity comes when your workflow is simplified. CBWS allows you to see your business as a whole in just one space. No need for 100s of tabs open or software draining your $$$ monthly. It's one unified system ready to take your business from messy and confused to clarity and momentum.

01. never miss a deadline

Keep track of your projects, tasks, client work, CRM and leads all in one. You'll never be caught out because CBWS allows you to see everything that needs to be done. Your deadlines are clear with potential clients and invoice tracking at your fingertips.

02. attract high-paying clients

Clients hire reliability and professionalism and CBWS gives you exactly that. With personalised client portals, invoice tracking and a lead generation form, landing and working with clients is second nature. Keep your clients happy, recurring and referring all with one simple system.

03. clear finances

A business that doesn't track finances usually doesn't last long. Keep on top of all invoices, expenses and revenue to ensure your business stays consistent, reliable and ready to buy spontaneous concert tickets.

"I really love how I was able to customize all the materials and see how my brand emerged. It really has an order to follow when approaching the client, and it saves you a lot of time".

- Joselyn Alvarado, Designer

Built to replace all the tabs you have open

Know exactly what to work on every day. CBWS surfaces priorities, revenue and direction.

There's nothing worse than opening your computer to work for the day, only to find you have no idea what you need to do, who owes you money, what clients to chase up or what content to post today. You're lost and overwhelmed; CBWS replaces this with clarity, mental freedom and momentum.

    Just another dashboard?

    • You can duplicate CBWS into your Notion workspace in under 2 minutes.

      Initial setup (customising services, adding active clients, inputing finances, setting up portfolio+) usually takes 1–3 hours depending on how messy your current systems are.

      Most people feel immediate clarity once everything is in one place.

    • If you:

      • Offer services
      • Manage clients
      • Send invoices
      • Market yourself
      • Want more structure

      Yes.

      CBWS was built for freelancers, consultants, designers, and studios who want operational clarity.

    • No. CBWS comes with tutorials and tips to help you set-up and manage your business easily.

      It’s structured so you always know what to work on next.

      If you’re stuck, contact us penelope@boringstudios.com.au

      We’d rather help you implement it properly than have it sit unused.

    • You can.

      But most free templates:

      • Don’t create a full operating system
      • Require you to design the structure yourself
      • Don't explain how to use it or what each part does

      CBWS connects:
      Marketing → Leads → Clients → Projects → Finances → Daily Execution

      CBWS explains how to use the workspace with tutorials and tips, unlike other Notion tools. Plus, you can contact us whenever you need help.

      Free templates are tools. CBWS is the system.
