Connect dots

Feeling stuck in a web of ideas? 

Are you a visionary entrepreneur or executive juggling too many ideas?

You have innovative ideas for your business, but when you talk about them...

  • Your message feels generic, and your website reflects that
  • Your work sounds intangible, abstract, or complicated.
  • You have many ideas, skills and interests. but maybe too many?!
  • It is frustrating that people just don't "get" what you do.
  • Creating content for social media or newsletters feels exhausting!

What Happens When This Isn’t Solved?

For entrepreneurs, it can lead to inaction. You get bogged down, unsure which vision to follow because you can't see the big picture of your beautiful business.

For executives, You’re so focused on running the core business that there’s no time for new, exciting ideas. Your team is capable, but they may not be able to venture as far into the visionary field as needed to uncover the next big idea.

Your coaching turned out great for me. Finally, I have a marketing method that works. A DREAM! I'm so glad that we found what to niche down on. I'm picking up clients, giving my business stability. I'm on the road to success :)

Let's connect the dots! 

That's where I come in. As your visual thinking partner, I help you:

  • See and explore your visions –  beyond where most people stop
  • Draw out your ideas so you can toy with them, turn them inside out, and play with various possibilities
  • Identify what works and what doesn't, saving you time, money, and energy
  • Translate abstract thoughts into relatable visual storied people can see, understand, and act upon
  • Align your team and get them on one page – literally!

We take a deep dive into your business and get it all out on paper.

 

My goal: A beautiful business for you

What I call a "beautiful business" is where:

  • The elegance of your vision combines with clear, actionable strategy.
  • Hidden patterns and opportunities become visible
  • Where your message clicks with your audience effortlessly, so they hear you, understand you and are excited to buy from you.

With your Business Storyboard, it’s as if you can step into your customer’s life.

I combine an artist's eye with strategic thinking to help you discover possibilities others miss.

We not only explore visionary ideas but turn them into action.

When you see your ideas laid out visually, the path to thought leadership becomes clear.

"I got more clarity about my messaging in our first 3-hour consultation
than I have in the past 3 years working with copywriters and consultants."

Christopher Becker, weight loss coach
