I assist small business owners in crafting comprehensive marketing plans that fit their specific goals and target audiences. This involves researching target markets, identifying customer personas, finding the best marketing channels, and creating messages and visuals that effectively showcase their products or services. A strong marketing plan is crucial for attracting customers and growing your business, and by working together, we can create a plan that drives results and boosts your brand’s visibility.

I help create professional and easy-to-navigate websites for small businesses that leave lasting impressions on potential customers.

A great website is essential in today’s digital world, as it’s often the first touchpoint customers have with your business.

As a business designer you’ll most likely hear I’m creating visually appealing graphics and marketing materials, such as logos, brochures, and business cards, that effectively communicate your brand’s message. Good design can make a significant difference in how people perceive your business and influence their decision to become customers.

Boosting Success with Email Marketing and Content Creation
Lastly, I support small business owners in developing successful email marketing campaigns and content strategies that drive engagement and conversions.

Email marketing and content creation allow you to reach customers directly, strengthen relationships, and boost brand awareness, ultimately improving your chances of success.

Business owners, like you, are increasingly using the services of coaches to help them achieve their goals and overcome obstacles.
Isn’t that why you are reading this? You saw the title and are seeking out a business coach to help you not only achieve goals, but accountability, brainstorming ideas, taking steps that you are hesitant on taking and/or ready to go for it, ready to grow – ready to achieve?
Wait! First learn what and who a coach is…..
What is a Business Coach?
A coach is a facilitator who motivates, inspires, and helps to clarify so that you can understand what needs to be done.
In more layman terms – a coach is one that focuses on YOU and your business, doesn’t judge or critize what you and your business is about, makes you accountable, guides you in setting short and long-term goals and so much more!

Check out these 8 ways a business coach can help YOU achieve your success and growth in YOUR business!
Get Out of Your Rut
We all get stuck in a rut sometimes and it can be hard to get yourself out. When you’re facing a problem or challenge, you run the risk of overthinking and spending too much time in your head. A coach prompts you to take action and holds you accountable so you can get yourself unstuck.
Push You Out of Your Comfort Zone
It’s tough to take risks and try something new, but no business can succeed by doing the same thing over and over again. A coach will give you a gentle push and the confidence you need to get out of your comfort zone and face the challenges you need to face.
The Big Picture View
Business coaches help by offering a big picture and long-term view. We can easily get caught up in the day-to-day details and lose sight of the bird’s eye view. While you’re handling the day to day, your coach helps you keep the long view in mind as well.
Strengthen Your Weak Points
Since your coach sees you from an unbiased point of view, they can understand and identify your strengths and weaknesses. They can focus on these weak areas and help you find ways to strengthen them. They can also point out the areas where you have gaps to fill.
You’re Wrong!
Your coach gives you valuable feedback. In particular, they can point out when you’re making a mistake. It’s not always easy to hear, but coaches are empathetic and have your best interests in mind. It can be very useful to have someone who can show you where you’re wrong and set you on the right path.
Clarify Your Vision
Coaches don’t do the work for businesses. They lead the professional to come to an understanding of their business and where it needs to go. Through asking open-ended questions and helping you think, your coach will get you to clarify the vision that drives your business.
Set the Right Priorities
Setting priorities is a vital task for business owners and entrepreneurs. You need to focus on the activities that will get the most results. A coach can help you set priorities effectively and get organized in other ways as well. They can teach you skills you can use without them to help you run your business more efficiently.
Grow Your Business
The result of working with a business coach is that your profits will grow. It’s a small investment that will pay you back by helping your business meet its goals and become a success.
Keeping these 8 ways a business coach in mind as you search for the right coach for you – remember business coaches ask great questions to help you find the right answer to said questions!
