WHAT DO YOU DO?

I help creative entrepreneurs get at-a-glance financial clarity without spreadsheets using a proprietary system (Profit First cash management) that guarantees profitability, guarantees you a steady paycheck, and guarantees you will be able to pay your taxes when they are due without having to raid your personal savings.
 

WHAT STEPS DID YOU TAKE TO GET TO WHERE YOU ARE NOW?

I went through a personal bankruptcy in my '20s and had to learn about money. Have been a lifelong learner and deeply interested in helping the small businesses that make the backbone of our economy flourish. Finding and certifying in Profit First was a game changer!

 

How do you stand out in your field?

I have an arts background, I know what it is like to struggle in business, I can empathize and guide the numberphobic to financial confidence and empowerment.

WHAT'S YOUR STYLE/PERSPECTIVE/TASTE? DO YOU HAVE A PROJECT THAT REPRESENTS THIS?

WE ARE ALL SLASHIES WITH MULTIPLE SKILLS, WHICH ONE DO YOU WISH YOU COULD DO MORE OFTEN?

I love leading workshops and looking forward to speaking at in-person events again someday. Until then, I'm seeing if I can increase my online speaking.

 

WHAT IS FRUSTRATING YOU RIGHT NOW?

Marketing! hard to get qualified leads and regularly fill my groups.

 

IF YOU COULD HIRE SOMEONE FOR $20/HR, WHAT WOULD YOU HAVE THEM DO TO MAKE YOUR DAY EASIER?

Marketing research and outreach & managing my email inbox.

 

LET'S BRING OUT THE TIME MACHINE. WHAT DO YOU WISH YOU COULD HAVE TOLD YOURSELF, WHEN, AND WHY?

Before I hired any marketing help, to ask them for guaranteed outcomes, what metrics to track and a timeline for ROI. I've wasted more than a year figuring out why contractors aren't producing results.

 

IF YOU COULD TALK TO AN EXPERT TO GAIN MORE INSIGHT ON SOMETHING, WHAT WOULD IT BE ABOUT?

Better to continue to outsource or to hire internally for marketing?

 

WHAT KIND OF OPPORTUNITIES/PROJECTS ARE YOU LOOKING FOR?

Teaching workshops, people who want help with financial clarity to join my group or do 1:1 coaching.
