What we do
Producing Paradise has been around since 2018, and in that time we’ve written 130 articles (and counting!). We offer templates for people who want to DIY their systems, and one-on-one consulting for those who want personalised support. We also share quick tips on TikTok, and longer how-to videos on YouTube.
We write about:
- Freelance and small business management: prepare your tax return , use a password manager, or do a business process review 💼
- Project management: learn how to use Trello, send weekly Slack reminders, or manage a remote team 👩💻
- Personal productivity: find your to-do style, learn some calendar hacks, or reach inbox zero 🤺
- Self-improvement: live by your values, stick with a new habit, or develop a gratitude practice ✨
We have a special place in our heart for Notion, and can teach you how to use it to setup:
- a personal task dashboard
- a project with subtasks and dependencies
- a film and TV watchlist
- a professional resume
Our five most popular articles are:
- Forwarding to multiple addresses in Gmail
- How to create a Google Slides theme

Meet the founders
We’re Jess and Aimee, the team behind Producing Paradise. We’re passionate about helping small businesses, freelancers and entrepreneurs escape the chaos of disorganisation and create systems that actually work for you (not against you). With backgrounds in operations, project management, and systems design, we’ve helped dozens of businesses transform overwhelming processes into smooth operations.
Hi, I’m Jess!
Digital Producer | People and Operations Specialist | Experienced leader
Melbourne, Australia
Top skills:
- Leadership
- Strategy
- Operations
- People and Culture
- Coaching
With over 10 years of experience in people, operations and project delivery, I help small businesses build smoother systems and stronger teams.
As a Manifesting Generator (Human Design), Enneagram Type 2, and Consul (ESFJ), I’m driven by connection, care, and a strong desire to be of service. I thrive when I’m helping others feel supported and organised, creating systems that are not only practical but genuinely make life easier. My energy is naturally responsive and people-focused, so I’m often tuning into what others need and finding ways to simplify or smooth things out—so everyone can show up at their best.
Career-wise, I spent 10 years managing digital projects for various studios, including 5 years running my own business (providing business development and project management support for a collective of web designers and developers), and 5 years in the leadership team at a strategic design agency, culminating in my appointment as the People and Operations Director.
My latest project is a beautiful baby girl born in November 2023, I’m currently raising her while supporting business operations for my partner, Aaron Puls (a designer and photographer, who also did our branding!).
Hi, I’m Aimee!
Digital Producer | Technical Project Manager | Experienced leader
Canberra, Australia
I am a pragmatic leader who harmonises strategic requirements with operational effectiveness in order to drive forward business outcomes.
As an Advocate (INFJ-T), I’m guided by intuition, empathy, and a quiet determination to make things better. I’m energised by thoughtful work that aligns with a bigger purpose, and I care deeply about helping people feel seen, supported, and understood. I naturally seek clarity and meaning, which means I’m often the one connecting the dots, asking the right questions, and gently nudging projects and people in the right direction. It’s not just about getting things done—it’s about doing them with intention.
I’ve been involved in the digital world in some capacity since finishing high school in 2006. My first taste was working for a digital printing company before I studied Digital Media. After graduating (from my very broad course) I started working for an independent video production company, before moving to software development doing front-end web development and later client services. After moving cities –and realising I’d found my niche– I’ve been working as a digital producer ever since.
