upstream marketing

15 Minute Quick Starts (at my cost)

During your 15-minute Quick Start we'll uncover what's standing between you & where you want to be. Available Monday and Thursday, 3pm Eastern.

* Note I do only four Quick Starts each month, so reserve your spot while it's available.

We'll analyze the upstream causes of the challenges facing you right now. It'll be a real eye-opener - guaranteed. My style is straight-forward, thorough, & I prefer to get things done - efficiently. That saves us both valuable time.

To guarantee your spot for a Quick Start, phone or email me below.

If our 15 minute Quick Start session doesn't change your perspective on what's holding back your business, we'll leave it there - you've probably lost more time waiting for your lunch to warm up. But if you have the ah-ha! moment (& I expect you will), we can review our discussion, uncover the best strategies and compile a plan of concrete actionable steps. We'll get your business moving in a better, faster, stronger direction right out of the gate.

While Quick Starts are at my cost, my regular hourly rate is $150 / hr. Prepare for a jam-packed hour; my clients rave I over-deliver.

For longer term objectives, retainer fees are available at very reasonable rates:

Weekly Retainer Rates 1
max 4 hours / week max 6 hours / week max 10 hours / week
$490 $660 $990


1 Retainer privileges: meetings anytime Saturday to Friday, 11:00am - 7:00pm EST.
   Hours cannot be carried over to a following week.
   Your vacation time is accommodated with retainer 'pauses'.
   Pre-payment by Paypal or major credit cards is accepted. Use my payments page.
