I specialize in creating marketing strategies specific to your business and target market, content development that fulfills those strategies, and websites that do their jobs.
When you work with me, here’s what won’t happen.
1. Unnecessary meetings.
2. Hundreds of emails.
3. Wasted time.
4. Wasted money.
5. A know-it-all attitude.
And here’s what will happen.
1. Your marketing will be effective if I have to crawl across burning coal to make it so. (This has never happened, btw.)
2. Our work together will be fun because it can be.
3. The process will be informative because what if I get hit by a bus?
4. Your strategy will be straight-forward because no one has time for the run-around.
5. I will say no when the occasion calls for it. I am here to protect your business, not mine.
One of the reasons working with Julia is such a pleasure is because her system is simple and powerful.
Tracey Ohlhausen, Senior Director at Peach (discoverpeach.com)
She clearly sees the areas you need help with and she listens so well, she can even intuit the unsaid.
She was able to quickly give me a plan I could follow and show me how I can implement it. Book a session with her now – your peace of mind is worth it!
