Hi Anne,

It was wonderful connecting with you. Attached is my proposal outlining how we could collaborate to support the launch and long-term success of CommunitySing!.

As I was thinking through the project, I believe a Studio Day model would be particularly effective, as it would allow us to create the marketing, communications, and positioning infrastructure needed to support the initiative while also providing strategic guidance around sustainability and community engagement.

Please take a look and let me know if you have any questions. I'm happy to customize the scope further to align with the goals of the grant and the vision for the program.

Consulting

Consulting is ideal when you already have a good sense of what you need. Maybe you're launching a new website, planning an album release, refining your marketing strategy, or looking for guidance on a specific challenge. In consulting, we answer questions, create a roadmap, and develop tangible solutions you can implement. It's focused, strategic, and designed to help you move forward with clarity and confidence.

Coaching

Coaching is a little different. Coaching is less about having all the answers on day one and more about discovering them together. It's a longer-term partnership where we have the space to ask better questions, notice patterns, celebrate wins, work through obstacles, and adjust as your business evolves. Instead of solving one problem, we're strengthening the way you make decisions so you're equipped for the next challenge, too.

Assessment of what you need:
Neither approach is better than the other. It simply depends on where you are. If you already know the destination and need an experienced guide to help you get there, consulting is often the right fit. If you're still uncovering what success looks like, navigating multiple moving pieces, or looking for an ongoing thought partner who can help you identify blind spots and bottlenecks, coaching tends to create the greatest transformation.

Clients will go between both of these things dependin on their needs.
