You share your message. We’ll handle the tech.
Done-for-you systems for authors and speakers — so you can write, speak, and shine with confidence.
Built for authors & speakers. No jargon. Real support.
When tech feels like a roadblock, your message gets stuck
So many brilliant authors and speakers struggle to share their message because the tech feels overwhelming. Websites, funnels, automations — it can feel like a maze with no map.
Meet the Overwhelm Ogre
“The Ogre’s in control — and your message is trapped.”
Every author and speaker knows this little guy...
He lurks in your laptop, ready to pop up with confusing platforms, endless logins, and jargon that makes your head spin. He steals your energy, blocks your momentum, and drowns your brilliant ideas in frustration.
And while you wrestle with him, your message — the one your audience is waiting for — stays stuck in the shadows.
“Bye-bye Ogre, hello clarity”
At Simplified Success Hub, we put the Overwhelm Ogre back in his box. Our done-for-you systems take care of websites, funnels, and automations, turning tech from a barrier into a quiet background helper.
With the Ogre out of the way, you get to do what you were meant to do: write, speak, and share your message with confidence.

Meet Our Founder: Jo Baker
Hi, I’m Jo — the heart behind the Simplified Success Hub.
I’ve always loved tech. For more than 13 years, I worked as a Training Lead on multi-million dollar tech projects, teaching entire organisations how to use new systems with clarity and confidence. That experience taught me exactly what works — and what doesn’t — when it comes to making technology feel simple.
But when I stepped into entrepreneurship as a bestselling author and international speaker, I found myself in a whole new world. Over the past three years, I’ve done plenty of trial and error setting up my own online business — testing platforms, building automations, and learning firsthand how overwhelming it can feel. That journey gave me a deep appreciation for the challenges authors and speakers face.
I founded the Simplified Success Hub to bring these worlds together: my love of tech, my corporate teaching background, and my lived experience as an author and speaker.
Everything we do is shaped by a simple belief: tech should feel supportive, never stressful.
The Simplified Success Hub is perfect for you if...
You’re an author who wants to showcase your book, build a reader list, and connect with your audience — without fighting with tech.
You’re a speaker who needs funnels, websites, and booking tools that make you look professional and easy to work with.
You feel overwhelmed by multiple tools and just want everything in one simple, stress-free platform.
You’re ready to share your message, but the tech side keeps slowing you down or holding you back.
You want to spend more time writing, speaking, and impacting others — not juggling systems and logins.
You value having support that feels kind and human, not cold or corporate.
You like the idea of having room to grow — starting with simple essentials now, and knowing the platform can expand with you later.
We built the Hub with authors and speakers in mind. That means it’s not for everyone — and that’s intentional
The Simplified Success Hub is NOT perfect for you if...
You want to DIY everything with multiple tools — SSH is all about simplifying, not adding to the chaos.
You expect cold, corporate support — we’re warm, human, and care deeply about your success.
You’re not ready to invest in your growth or take action on your book, your message, or your speaking journey.
You’d rather keep wrestling with the Overwhelm Ogre than let us help tame him
Want Us To Do It For You?

Our Done-For-You Services mean you don’t have to lift a finger — we’ll create your website, funnels, automations, or even your course setup, so you can focus 100% on your message.

No more juggling tools. No more second-guessing. No more getting stuck in tech quicksand. Just clarity, confidence, and the space to do what you do best: write, speak, and make an impact.
