Hi. I’m Diane.

I’m an artist and entrepreneur, here to help you grow your business with authenticity.

NOW FEATURING

Marketing Essentials

  • Get strategic tools in place to capture and convert leads
  • Learn how to utilize social media & email marketing to connect with your unique customer
  • Understand how to evolve your marketing plan as you launch new products or service

This program is perfect for entrepreneurs who are in the early stages of your business and need help finding focus, zeroing in on what matters most, and cutting through the noise of what you “should” be doing in order to create a strong foundation for your marketing success. In this program, we’ll cover the essentials of branding (beyond a logo), pricing & promotions, email marketing, social media, and more.

What People Are Saying...

"Diane has an intuitive approach to business that is both unique and profound. Over the many years of our working relationship, she’s has always provided the best, most well-rounded, thoughtful, and ACCURATE advice. She’s one of my most trusted and most cherished advisors."

Cassy Joy Garcia

NYT bestselling author of "Cook Once Dinner Fix" & editor in chief of fedandfit.com

“As a budding new business owner, I wanted to learn how to market my business right, so I could be as successful as possible from the beginning. Diane’s Marketing Essentials class came up at exactly the right time for me, and knowing how successful her businesses have been, I knew it was what I was looking for.

I thought I had an idea of how to market my business, but Diane’s class was eye opening and so helpful! She helps you build from the foundation up, and tailors her lessons to your specific needs. I absolutely loved the class, and I am confident that I am set up for success from the start, just like I wanted. Thank you Diane!”

Marie nail artist & Marketing Essentials student

“As a small business owner that never thought they would be a business owner this class is essential! One of the areas I have struggled with in our business was how to communicate who I thought we were in a way that resonated with everyone. I learned so many things from Diane and felt like I left each session with several nuggets that made a huge difference in our marketing. The most important – I don’t want to reach everyone, I want to reach the right people. I cannot say enough about her hands on approach, or the way she broke down even complex things in an easy to understand way. I have had other business coaches over the years but I strongly believe this was the most value for my money I have ever gotten. Our marketing has completely changed, and we have almost immediately seen a positive impact. I am hopeful she offers more business coach classes in the future because she has a wonderful way of making it seem totally obvious and easy without while making you feel empowered and excited about my least favorite part of business.”

Angela co-owner, Donovan Waterworks (a woman-owned plumbing company), Marketing Essentials student


“For years, Diane has played an integral role in my business development as a budding entrepreneur. I can always count on her to give me honest, direct and individualized feedback based on her decades of experience while keeping in mind what’s best for me and my business. Diane is in tune with my needs and desires for business growth and I appreciate her no BS approach. Anyone would be lucky to work with Diane to learn the ins and outs and ups and downs of entrepreneurship.”

Laney Schwartz Creator of Cook With Confidence & blogger at lifeisbutadish.com


“I trust Diane’s coaching because she has built and ran multiple successful businesses in the same industries I’m passionate about! She’s a true entrepreneur who speaks from experience and there’s nothing more valuable in a mentor than that.”

Liz Wolfe Creator of Athletic Mom and bestselling author of "Eat the Yolks"
