I help small businesses and local nonprofits create strategic PR and marketing activities that get them unstuck and help them meet their goals.

That’s not so hard, is it? Your elevator pitch does not need to be clever, cute, or fluffy. Say who you help with what. Then start a conversation.

Are you stuck? Get moving! The best remedy is to put yourself and your marketing in motion. A social media post, a blog post, a thank you note, a call to a past client. That motion will unstick you and get your promotion in motion.

Persuasion works when you commit to the education it takes to help a person understand. Take a no-nonsense approach and leave out jargon and acronyms. Communicate at the receiver’s pace and level. Seek understanding and it might very well persuade a person … later, when they recall the conversation.

Is your start-up not starting?
Is your second act not acting?

Before you trudge through he valley of endless experimentation, you need clarity from the launchpad to propel you to success. Join me in my newest program designed specifically for small business owners and solopreneurs. I developed this curriculum from a certificate program for nonprofits I have led since 2011. I have helped hundreds of professionals who have little to no understanding of how to organize or activate their marketing pursuits so they can move forward in control with confidence and competence.

Let me help you too! This program combines the simplest mechanics of promotions and brings in the latest and greatest strategies and tactics so you can effectively pilot your business.

In a cohort of no more than 25 people, you will gain knowledge, master the skills, and have both group and individualized help in a swift five weeks.

Each module is a class of its own worth hundreds of dollars. Click on the link and enroll today. https://tinyurl.com/muuzs4pv
