From the owner: Our goal is to facilitate the realization of the dream that led our client into starting their own…read morebusiness in the first place, rather than spending all of their time worrying about the daily operations of the business. We believe that business ownership should allow the entrepreneur more freedom to pursue personal goals. We believe that owning and operating a business should not simply be a replacement for a traditional 8-5 job, or worse, replacing an 8-hour work day with a 12-hour one. We believe that owning and operating a business should offer the entrepreneur to spend more time doing the things he or she enjoys, making life happier with less stress. Our solutions create the type of life the client desires. We spend the first few days interviewing our client about the vision and dreams that led to starting the business, and performing a thorough analysis of current business operations. Once we have gathered sufficient data, we develop a plan that will ensure that our client will be able to fulfill the vision, and enable the business to support the dreams, whatever those might be. Every client, and every business is unique. Therefore every solution is custom designed for the specific client. However, we aim to make our solutions affordable to every client.

Christa Smith is amazing! I am currently enrolled in a Mastermind Group brand coaching/consulting…read morecourse with her company, Savvy Brand Builder, and I've already reaped great results from my first 3 months of her course. In addition to being a sharp, energetic, and pleasant person, Christa isn't afraid to challenge you and force you to take a hard look at what you're doing in regards to your branding strategies. Personally, she has helped me reinforce and achieve further clarity on the "why" behind what I do (wealth management) and she has really helped me develop the always-important 10, 30, or 60-second personal commercials or elevator pitch. Additionally, she did a thorough review and audit of my entire online presence and social media pages. She exposed me to many new tips, tricks, and need-to-know pieces of information, all of which have helped me greatly. If you, or someone you know, is looking for a consultant who won't give you a bunch of "fluff" about your current strategies - but WILL give you an honest evaluation and steps to fix whatever is holding you back, Christa is your go-to gal. Needless to say, I would HIGHLY recommend Christa's services and her Mastermind Group coaching concept to anyone who is committed to branding themselves and take their business and brand strategies to the next level.

From the owner: Brand Strategy, Marketing, Business Development, Social Media…read more The types of clients I work with: Dedicated Real Estate Professionals (Realtors, Brokers, Mortgage Loan Officers, Title Reps, etc.) who have done an excellent job representing their clients, but have a hard time obtaining new clients consistently because they haven't figured out how to stand out from the crowd of other Real Estate Professionals in their area and create their own unique brand. Business Owners who entered into business without a Strategy. Or, perhaps, over time, your business has evolved from where it started and you haven't had the time to implement a new business strategy, plan or brand because you've been too busy handling the day to day. Entrepreneurs who work as Independent Contractors. They've spent most of their career branding big companies, forgetting they are Independent Contractors. What happens if they decide to move on? They haven't figured out how to stand out from the crowd and create a personal brand. Business Owners looking to re-brand or who have marketed their business so well, when it comes time to open a different business or expand and open a different leg of the business, they feel like they are starting over because their clients know the initial business so well they aren't welcoming of change. Or worse, they branded this company they created, sell it, and find they have a non-compete agreement prohibiting them from doing business with their entire network.
