I talk with your audience, not at them.

Every in-person or virtual workshop includes:

Question & Response Time

If time allow, I'll stick around to answer questions from your audience from the stage. I always make myself available for folks to come up and ask questions after the presentation, too.

Free
Books

Each attendee will receive a free book that relates to the presentation: either Building A StoryBrand or Marketing Made Simple by Donald Miller.

Free Website
Reviews

After the talk, attendees will have an opportunity to request a free website review from me. These reviews are very practical and provide a massive value for most organizations.

Watch the light bulbs go on.

Choose from among three presentations designed to keep your audience tuned-in and amped-up.

To Stand Out.

Rethinking the Elevator Pitch: How to Grow Your Business in 30 Seconds

Most of the time, business and nonprofit leaders miss a big opportunity when they tell people what they do. The response they get should be "Tell me more..." but too often they just get a blank stare.

​

This workshop teaches your audience a simple, three-part pitch framework that cuts through the noise and creates curiosity, so they can keep the conversation going. 

​

Everyone will leave with an elevator pitch that has the power to turn "What do you do?" into "Sign me up."

Meet Dana

I've spent 20+ years serving purpose-driven businesses and nonprofits, either as an in-house marketer or as a marketing consultant. 

 

Almost every organization I've worked with is tired of wasting money on marketing that just doesn’t work. These presentations help solve that problem.
 

Your attendees will walk away knowing how to market their organization using strategies that feel easy, authentic, and empathetic. Most importantly, what they'll learn is effective.


Because that's what your audience deserves.

Let's make your meeting memorable.
