Who I Work With


I work with solo entrepreneurs who want to create a Climate of Success with their Total Image - including Visual, Vocal and Verbal aspects. My clients know that your exterior appearance counts, but that it's just the beginning.

People you meet will automatically accept the image that YOU have packaged yourself for. Your initial impression on other people is 55% visual (how you look and act), 38% vocal (the tone of your voice), and only 7% verbal (what you say).

My clients know that people will see (and react to) your visual presentation long before they get to know the intelligent and resourceful person inside - presenting a polished and attractive image will encourage people to stop and notice you, affording you the advantage of time to prove your worth. No matter where our clients live - in southern New England, or in other areas of the country - they use what they've learned to project a higher level of self-esteem, self-confidence and polish. Whenever you walk into a room, you want to make a powerful and positive First Impression, and then follow it up with the Vocal and Verbal aspects of your Total Image.

People will see your visual presentation long before they get to know the wonderful person inside - using the principles I teach in 'The Bottom Line of Style' will empower you to present that attractive, polished and authentic image that is truly you. A negative or less-than-polished first impression isn't the end of the world, but it creates a distraction that you can ill afford when you've got personal and professional goals to achieve.

As a Solo Entrepreneur, you might meet with clients strictly in your company's offices; visit their businesses and offices to conduct assessments, individual work sessions or workshops; or travel to a client's home for personalized service at the highest level. Your image should create that climate of success that helps to increase your client's confidence in you and your effectiveness with them.

Do You Struggle With These Image-related Challenges?

"I need an objective analysis of my appearance. I know it's important to project a professional and polished image, but with so much conflicting information regarding proper fit, types of clothing and color, I'm just not sure what to do."

"I don't have a huge clothing budget - how do I avoid wasting money and create a wardrobe that reflects my personal style and taste, but suits my chosen industry and helps my clients be more comfortable with me? I don't want to follow the fads and buy a closet full of new clothes every season, but I don't want to dress like I'm stuck in a time warp, either!"

"I need help in defining the role Business Casual clothing can play in my wardrobe! How do I avoid dressing too casually for working with groups or with corporate clients, yet stay away from stiff, boring and unflattering suits?"

"I just started my business and need a working wardrobe... How do I adjust my current wardrobe and put together enough clothing to get me through a month without spending thousands? I really want to project a polished image to my potential clients!"

"I've just completed a significant personal transition...how do I update my wardrobe so that it reflects my new level of confidence and my new attitude?"

Potential clients are likely to be successful working with me if they have some or most of the following characteristics...

• Willingness to change - you haven't reached your current stage in life by being afraid of change. Completing the Bottom Line of Style program will require you to stretch and grow - something you can look forward to.
  
• Open to trying a new approach to achieve desired results - all the knowledge in the world can't help you reach your goals if you don't get a chance to put it into practice. Creating an attractive and professional visual image will encourage people to notice you and gives you the advantage of time to show them your true value.
  
• Action oriented and committed to getting things done - Creating a Climate for Success will require action and commitment on your part. I will provide you with positive reinforcement and accountability. Ultimately, your progress is up to you.
  
• Interested in achieving personal growth - you know that personal growth is key to success. There is no substitute for Knowing Thyself, and I'll help you get there.
  
• Open to learning about Total Image concepts and their value - most Solo Entrepreneurs are not trained in the importance of Image. The good news is, I'm here to help and guide you along the way.
