I bring years of experience in professional RÉSUMÉ WRITING to the table – with 350+ résumés, 100+ people coached in preparation for interviews, and 75+ revamped LinkedIn profiles under my belt. When working with me, you will feel confident that you’ve effectively communicated your value to an employer.
My approach to SOCIAL MEDIA MANAGEMENT is both personal and efficient. You’ll be working with me directly – coordinating with the same person who is creating and designing content, artwork, strategy, and future initiatives.
My personal touch ensures that your goals and preferences are not lost in translation from one person to the next, or forced into a pre-existing template. I will develop a genuine connection with each client.
Each solution is customized to each client.
I am selective in choosing my clients – limiting the volume so that exceptional service is the expectation and outcome. This is often more difficult to maintain in larger firms.
My goal is your confidence and trust with the message you portray – If something isn’t working for you, I am quick to implement changes.
I both write the content and design the graphics for both resumes and social media. This ensures a cohesive brand image while saving my clients vital time, energy, and money you could be spending elsewhere.
I seek to work with individuals and businesses who strive for excellence, who value professionalism, and who are seeking to improve their personal or business brand image.
My résumé clients are individuals committed to doing what it takes to gain a competitive advantage in the job market. They understand that a résumé is the entry point and first impression with an organization. It’s a marketing tool and is what stands between whether an employer will call them for an interview or put their application in the ‘no’ pile. My clients trust that I understand how important it is for this marketing piece to to grab the attention of the hiring manager within seconds – AND I KNOW HOW TO WRITE IT.
My social media management clients are small businesses who desire a strong, long-term partnership, but lack the time and expertise to manage their brand on social media.
These business owners know that social media platforms help them connect with their customers, build brand awareness, and increase lead conversions. They may or may not have had someone manage their online presence in the past, but they now see how vital it is to have a strategic social media plan in place, instead of posting at random.
