WHAT PEOPLE SAY...
Suzanne, Broker, Bend, OR
I really appreciated the clear structure and step-by-step framework Stephanie provided. The small-group format was incredibly beneficial to share ideas and brainstorm together, producing an even better Business Story than I could have created on my own.
Stephanie does a phenomenal job meticulously going through the process of helping me accurately identify my business ethos. She is particularly helpful in extracting your thoughts and ideas and articulating them in a way that makes it easy for your target audience to understand.
Stacy, Broker, Portland, OR
After struggling to narrow down the message I wanted to deliver to my target audience, I was fortunate enough to meet Stephanie. The guided format was easy to follow and the group feedback during our brainstorming session was thought provoking and invaluable.
