In-Person Programs
I offer in-person workshops in Northern California. These are 3-session, hands-on story branding workshops for any encorepreneur or solo business owner who wants to learn about the power of story and get started writing stories. Contact me if you want more information about upcoming scheduled workshops.
Virtual programs
LearnSavvy
I am excited to be part of this new venture offering learning programs for women entrepreneurs. Check out their course offerings in business, technology and managing life as a women entrepreneur. I offer “Why Your Business Needs Your Stories” —an introduction to business storytelling here. If you are a women encorepreneur I encourage to check out this supportive site.
One-on-One Coaching
Need more hands-on help than you can get from a book or virtual program? Want to make immediate progress by focusing on your specific business issues? Perhaps one-on-one coaching is what you need.
I offer 3 ways to get targeted, custom help:
30 day Obstacle Buster: Designed to identify, analyze and overcome the immediate obstacles you are facing to your storybranding efforts. The program uses the same philosophy as my book: clear path to success, focused activities, practical advice.
6-Month Branding Reboot: Coaching program for those who need help developing a brand or a brand re-boot and want coaching over 6 months to get the project done, and done right.
Wine Country Retreat: The Wine Country Storybranding Retreat is a one-on-one program that combines a personal coaching experience with a vacation in Sonoma County! And, it may be tax-deductible. How great is that?
If you are interested in any of my coaching programs, just let me know!
