Have a specific need?
A lot of people that visit this site want to know if I can help them with the specific challenges they face in their business especially when it comes to marketing and promoting smarter, faster, cheaper as opposed to dumber, slower, expensive (yuck!). The quick answer: Yes! There are a couple ways I can do this. The list below is not comprehensive, but is the most requested:
-Creating your own show: Web show, podcast or even TV (ideas, marketing, etc.)
-Online content strategy
-Promoting and marketing your blog/show/etc.
-Maximizing social media (especially Twitter and Facebook)
-Utilizing online video for your business.
-Keeping you up-to-date with the latest tools and strategies.
Working with me directly:
These days, I stay pretty busy promoting my new upcoming book, speaking at events and providing loads of free content for you on this site.
I do, however, offer a few specialized, completely-custom consulting packages if you need even more help including face-to-face strategy sessions/workshops as well as ongoing retainer packages and have worked with everyone from solo entrepreneurs to personal brands to big brands. Reach out and we will see if it is a fit. If this option interests you--shoot me an email to and I’ll shoot back details and rates.
Also, I understand that sometimes you'd like really like my opinion on something. In these cases, I do offer one-hour Skype and phone sessions for $500. When you shoot me an email be sure to let me know the specific thing you would like to talk about (and any relevant URLs). If I think I can help you, I will reply ASAP with payment/scheduling information. If I don't think I can help you I will also reply ASAP and if possible will recommend someone I think might be able to help.
Getting you the expertise you need:
I can also help you by setting you up with awesome talent and services I know and trust--folks that can really get to know you, your goals and constraints and can work with you to develop a plan for success. Everything from legal to web development to video to...pretty much everything else (with the exception of a request for a monkey that dresses as a clown. That actually happened once).
