Unsure of where you want to go with your author brand? Need advice on how to position yourself?
Book a one-hour session with me!
Your hour-long, one-on-one branding consultation will enable you to ask questions and work on strategy and solutions for your personal brand. We’ll cover whatever you need help with the most.
My goal is to always give you deeper value than you’ve paid for so you walk away from our session with:
- more clarity about what you truly want (not just what you ‘should’ want)
- a vision for what to focus on next
- more confidence in your own talents/experience/expertise
- a sense of accomplishment or peace–like a weight has been lifted
- a clearer understanding of the larger vision for your brand (& life)
- better ideas for what steps will make a difference in pursuing what you truly want
Clients say…
“Working with Andréa is a profound experience. While most brand strategists offer mass-produced, superficial advice, Andréa challenges you to dig deep into your creative identity, articulate your unique gifts, and communicate them to your target audience. Don’t be surprised if this work on your brand spills over into all aspects of your life—getting to know who you are and what you really want to achieve is a powerful invitation to make all kinds of positive changes. Andréa’s warmth, sincerity, and good humor make her a joy to work with. She is the real deal and worth every penny!”
“My hour with Andrea yielded more than I expected. She shared grounded, practical guidance on how to approach social media without the turmoil it usually causes me…Now I’m thinking about my possibilities from a wider view. Thank you, Andrea, for your candor and warm, genuine style.”
“My consult with Andrea opened up opportunities I didn’t know existed for sharing my books without losing my soul. I refer back to her wisdom whenever possible. She is the rare marketing expert who understands that creatives aren’t in this business to push product at all costs, that the work itself is what matters most, both to you and your readers. Working with her let me keep my integrity and find new places to grow.”
“A coaching session with Andrea was the perfect way to start the new year. Her gift for listening and asking questions inspired some motivation to take the action I’ve been longing to for years. I’ve made successful pitches for teaching creative writing classes – both online and in person – and am making solid plans for building my own business in literary arts. I know nothing happens overnight, but with help like this, I know that I can bite off chunks at a time and build from the wins.”
Who is this Andrea person? 😉
Here’s where I regale you with my bragging rights. LOL. I’m the creator of the Brand Strength branding methodology (based on my 20+ years of experience), a single mom (who successfully raised two kids to adulthood on my own!), entrepreneur (I’ve had several businesses over the years), former Brand Director of BinderCon (Ntl inclusive feminist writing conference), and was an Advisory Mentor in the Queen’s Young Leaders Programme (yeah, that’s the Queen of England, y’all). I’m also a writer (UCLA X Writers Program scholar, working on a couple books) and a designer (named Top 10 Designer by CreativePublic).
But I truly believe my greatest accomplishment was raising my two kids as a single mom and going through the kind of hell that should have knocked me down for good too many times (aka homelessness, poverty, mental illness, drug-addicted ex-husband, etc. etc.).
I am passionate about helping writers and authors step into their full power so they can share their voice, further their mission, and get paid handsomely for it.
I believe what defines us is not just what we accomplish or how well we love, but also what we’ve had to overcome in order to do it.
