About Me

Hello!

I’ll bring my 25 years as a small, independent business owner talents to you. I’ve had to learn new skills and pivot when the market demanded.

I’ll ask lots of questions, learn everything I can about your circumstances, and add my expertise. I’ll determine the best metrics to measure and create a dashboard. You’ll be able to see what’s working and do more of that.

Having the confidence to push forward in business is difficult, but I’m here to take the guesswork out.

Testimonials

Becky

What I think is the most unique and capable about working with Melanie is her ability to see a project, taking it from the very initial idea, and work through to a completed asset. What she creates is always far better than anything I had in mind when I handed it over. It was a delight to see her develop an idea, either with me or on her own, and make it take shape.

Duran

It’s not just Melanie’s technical skills that impress me. Melanie was always prepared and ready for whatever came her way. Her positive attitude, patience, and willingness to get the work done were also necessary and valued not just by myself, but also managers in numerous departments, who relied on her to get the job done.

Laura

In the five years that we worked together, we spent hours together on dozens of calls. Here’s the unsung attribute that needs to be mentioned. If a call was scheduled, she was there, on time and focused. She helped me stay on track, always positive, always steady and always ready to see what was needed next. This builds trust and made her a highly effective member of the team.
