You
are facing an opportunity to get
rid of the tasks you don't like
to do - the ones that give you a headache,
make your life challenging and often
just get shoved to the bottom of
your to-do list. However burdensome
you find these chores, they are often
the ones that have a dramatic impact
on your business. So what if you could
do
what you do best
and delegate the other details to someone
else who will take care of them for
you? Someone who just might care more
about the success of your business than
you do?
What
Would It Be Like If You Only Did What You Love To
Do?
When
I work with my clients, we take inventory
of their overall business. We sort
out where their strengths and interests
lie and determine the trouble spots.
I advise them on business opportunities
they might not see; opportunities that
lead to new revenue. We establish structures
to make their business run smoothly
and set up follow-up systems to maintain
contact with customers and prospects.
(Not only does it cost six times more
to get new customers, 68% of business
is lost due to lack of follow-up. I
will help you create lifetime customers.)
Are you feeling overwhelmed with information
overload and finding it difficult to effectively
manage your day-to-day operations?
Are you wanting to set up an organized system
for generating new leads and converting them
into paying customers?
Are you frustrated with the computer/Internet
side of your business?
- If you have umpteen
digital books lining your virtual bookcase (that could
make you some money if you’d just get them out there)…
- If you’ve committed
to publishing a newsletter on your niche, but haven’t
gotten around to it…
- If you’ve missed deadlines
or important meetings (or your mother’s birthday)
simply because you forgot about them…
- If you feel like you’re
drowning in a sea of emails…
- If you want to know
what comparable services are available...
- If you're not sure of
the best way to market yourself...
I bring focus and clarity
to your ideas. Tie up the loose ends. Give you productive
feedback.
Put you and your business in gear.
Here’s a sample of some of the services I provide:
Organize
& Prioritize: If you’re like most creative people I know, you’ve got more
ideas than you know what to do with – and that’s the
problem. You don’t know what to do with them. Projects,
newsletters, ebooks, classes, presentations… Where do
you start? I can help you prioritize your idea-list
and design a strategy to get you on your way.
Reminder
Service:
When you get caught up in your projects, do you tend
to disregard more practical matters – like completing
scheduled phone calls, showing up for meetings, taking
care of customer requests? I will be your ‘live’ calendar,
reminding you take care of what you must. I’ll give
you a gentle nudge to keep you on task, without nagging.
Email
Gatekeeper: If you’re a creative entrepreneur,
you want to do what you want to do without having to
worry about the nit-picky details. I can sort through
your email, send spam to junkmail heaven, handle customer
service details… and forward to you only what’s really
important. Need an Internet search? If it’s out there,
I’ll find it for you.
eCommerce
Solutions:
Do you cringe at the thought of shopping carts, autoresponders
and HTML? I can recommend and maintain your shopping
cart system, set up affiliate programs, autoresponders
and ad trackers. While I don’t do website design, I
can take care of your basic website updates and editing
needs. Are you a musician or public speaker? Let’s take
your goods and feature them on your website. I can convert
your audio presentations to web-wows.

Editing
& Proofreading: Don’t bother you with minutiae, right? I will take your written
words and polish them ‘til they shine. This includes
special reports, articles, letters and books. I have

Planning. I am currently co-authoring a self-help book
on surviving family betrayal.
Customer
Service: In your ongoing self-expression,
do you neglect those people who make your livelihood
possible? I can deal with general inquiries, customer
complaints and refund requests. I have a special knack
for smoothing ruffled
feathers.
Consulting
& Coaching: Have ideas or challenges
you’d like to discuss with an objective ear? I am Certified
Guerrilla Marketing Coach, I have owned my own small
businesses (both brick and mortar and web) and have
managed other small businesses.
As we work together
and I learn your business, I’ll be able to take over
more responsibilities. You’ll get concrete, tangible
results and have more time to focus on the work you
love to do. Think of me as your Flight Technician: I’ll
do the work to get your ideas off the ground.
