Private Client Home

“It’s the not the destination, it's the journey.”
― Ralph Waldo Emerson

Your personal brand shouldn’t be left to others’ interpretation.

Your personal brand needs to be built, managed, and protected like any other strategic asset.

That’s why I created this Private Client Home page; to give us a place to more actively think about and manage your future.

Returning Clients

So much of my work with clients has become less about “returning” and more about “continuing.” Reinforce your immediate needs and long-term commitments to your career, whether we’ve just wrapped your project, or we’ve worked together for 20+ years.

“This update is like working with an old friend. You know me. You help people regain their mojo. You reflect back to us who we are. On top of it, because of what you do, and who you work with, you have this holistic view of it all. ”

— Big Pharma Digital Marketing Operations Director

The in-depth work we did during your project doesn't have to stop at my delivery of your master documents, and it doesn’t need to stay behind the scenes.
Stick to your career goals and represent yourself better on the job with me as a thought partner, sounding board, skeptic, and champion invested in your success.
OPTION 1: Book ad hoc sessions as needed (30-minute session, 60-minute session).
OPTION 2: Book a monthly subscription for Ongoing Career Advancement
Here are a few ways I routinely help clients:
Behind the scenes:
- Become board ready
- Keep your written materials and brand up to date
- Cultivate long-term career goals (e.g., promotions)
- Pressure test career ideas
- Strategize new career directions
On-the-job:
- Prepare for annual reviews
- Raise your visibility as a thought leader (e.g., article writing, public speaking)
- Prepare pitch decks
- 30-min Job Search Strategy & Support (e.g., develop a networking strategy, navigate job boards, customize documents to live job postings)
- 30-min Interview Coaching
- 30-min Technical Assistance or Optimization (e.g., job submissions, LinkedIn “Skills” optimization, cover letters)
- 30-min Document Customization & ATS Submission Support (e.g., customize your résumé or cover letter to a specific job description)
Here are some examples:
- You're referred to someone and need to develop a strategy (e.g., tone, pre-meeting questions, expectations, follow-ups and thanks yous, next steps)
- A recruiter contacted you and you're not sure what to do next
- An odd inbound query came in and you don't know whether you should ignore it or respond to it
- You suddenly have a promotion offer
- Your dream job came along and you need to *calm down* and think rationally
- You need to identify your "Top 10 contacts" about your stealth job search intentions, and then develop a contact strategy for each
Got a super-quick question and need a quick answer? Schedule a 15-minute or 30-minute Quick Counsel session.
Example needs:
- interview prep
- networking strategies
- recruiter responses
- salary / compensation
- presentation talking points
If you’ve been away for some time and need to refresh your story, get the ball rolling with a single session
- Document Update (30 min) (Résumé, LinkedIn, etc.)
- Document Update (60 min) (Résumé, LinkedIn, etc.)
Additional time will be scheduled and billed as you go.
Be sure I have the latest versions of your master documents in advance of our first meeting; otherwise, I'll pull your most recent archived master file.
Ready for a refresh and think you'll need more than just a few hours?
This five-hour block secures you priority calendar access, bundled pricing, and a structured approach to our work. Use your hours for one focused project or divide them among broader services such as job search strategy, interview prep, or other forward-looking work. Need more time? We'll know as we go, and can easily add hours as the need arises.
