I offer three plans for Crafty Chica consulting:

I'll send you a questionnaire to fill out to help me learn about your business and your challenges. Then devise a glittery plan to beef it up!

1. Sequin Session

This is a "pick my brain, ask me anything" session. This is for the person who wants me to focus on one or two specific challenging areas of their brand. 

– Audit of your choice (social media, web site, media kit, etc)

- A one-hour Zoom session.

- PDF worksheet.

- Written overview of our conversation, my notes and suggestions for you.

- Crafty Chica creativepreneur gift set.

2. The Big Quilt - four sessions in four months.

This is where we will go into all aspects of your brand, and create a plan for all the pieces to work together. Like a gorgeous, glorious quilt! We'll go over everything - a different area each session.

– Overall comprehensive audit.

- Four one-hour Zoom sessions, a different topic each month. This will give you time to work on the previous month's action plan.

- PDF worksheet.

- Written overview of my notes, suggested action items, review of your work.

- Weekly check-in, if desired.

- Crafty Chica creativepreneur gift set.

I will provide you with a wealth of ideas and steps to take, but it is up to you to follow up, take action and make it happen with my coaching! I’m excited to help in any way I can, as long as you are excited to invest the time and energy into the “homework” I give you.

3. Cup of Cafecito

This is a 30-minute session for you to meet with me to ask advice on a specific topic, ask for my input, suggestions. 

How it works

Once you sign up, I’ll send you the questionnaire. Set aside some quiet time to fill it out. The more info the better! I’ll review, set up a time for us to connect, then write up notes to present to you for our first session.

Thanks for working with me!
