Small Business Casual: Content Marketing, Productivity, Customer Experience for Entrepreneurs & Creators
Welcome to Small Business Casual, where we focus on designing a sustainable, cozy, and thriving business tailored to your LIFE. Not the other way around!
Here, small business meets your favorite pair of slippers. It's a little quirky, not too buttoned up, one less accessory, ahhhโฆ just right.
From customer service, business productivity, and content marketing to making sense-of-the-behind the scenes, chaos, I walk alongside you as we make life and business less of a roller coaster ride and more like a walk in the park (with snacks, of course!).
I offer Small Business Copywriting & Content Marketing Consulting to interior designers, home trade professionals, service providers, coaches, consultants, non-profits, and entrepreneurs with a big mission!

We all face two both outer and inner expectations in life.
Outer expectations are things like replying to that text your friend sent you, a client deadline, bringing the dish you promised your sister you would for Thanksgiving dinner...
Inner expectations are your rules, promises, or notes to self: ie. resolutions, goals, habits, etc.
How you approach and manage these expectations impacts your productivity, consistency, follow-through, and achieving your goals and dreams.
AND your marketing actions!
In this episode, we get into Gretchen Rubin's Four Tendencies Framework and show you the strengths and weaknesses of being:
- The Upholder
- The Obliger
- The Questioner
- The Rebel
We'll discuss how to determine which of the four tendencies is yours and some strategies and ideas for improving your outcomes!
