For years, my colleagues in the business, professional and not-for-profit communities have been urging me to "go out on my own." I've been a legal, accounting, and health care marketing professional, and for over a decade have helped numerous not-for-profit organizations with marketing, special events, operations, public relations, fund-raising, and communications.

With the arrival of 2005, I finally "harnessed the power to grow my own business," doing what I do best - working collaboratively with other entrepreneurs, professionals, organizations and not-for-profits, to reach their business development goals through targeted marketing.

Whenever needed, I work closely with other professionals to provide your business or organization with the highest quality finished product:

• Graphic design
• Photography
• Printing
• Promotional products
• Website design

This phrase has been dancing in my head for a very long time. It's been my experience that many prospective clients wish to engage a marketing professional on a project, or short-term basis. For many, this "easing in" to marketing is far more suitable than a fixed, retainer-based arrangement. I've also found that one project can lead to another, at a pace most comfortable to the client. After all, it's all about you and your business, isn't it?
