You're great at what you do, and your business looks successful. But what happens to it if you get hit by a bus?

If your business can't survive without you, then it's not a business, it's a solopreneur job. You have a business model problem, and it's the most important problem of all.

Breakthrough offers a detailed plan to take you from solopreneur to true CEO by replacing hustle with systems, burnout with clarity, and solo effort with scalable structure.

Writing from a distinctly Finnish perspective shaped by a culture known for equality, sustainability, and happiness, one of Finland's most successful and dynamic female entrepreneurs shows you how to:

  • Design one premium, scalable offer that doesn't depend on your constant presence
  • Turn your expertise into a repeatable system
  • Build a simple, weekly demand engine that brings in qualified leads consistently
  • Create a small, mighty team without losing quality or control
  • Step out of everything else and into the role of CEO

Breakthrough is a blueprint for expert women who want a business that grows with their life instead of consuming it. If you're ready to stop being the business and start owning the business, this Finnish model for scalable success is your plan.

About the Author

Marianne Lehikoinen is the CEO and founder of Smart Mentoring, a leading Finnish sales and marketing consultancy dedicated to helping coaches, consultants, and service-based founders scale their businesses with clarity and confidence. Named Young Entrepreneur of the Year 2024 in Espoo, Finland, Marianne built her own seven-figure company in her twenties entirely from scratch. Born and raised in a small town in Northern Finland by a single mother, and with a mixed cultural background, she understands deeply what it means to create opportunity out of nothing. Her debut book, Sivubisnes (Otava, 2021), inspired a new wave of Nordic entrepreneurs to take bold steps toward their own dreams.
