Unique Selling Proposition or Competitive Advantage:
Colleen gets to the meat of the business through numbers. She takes a strategic approach to understand the vision and goals of the organization and aligns the operations, products and services to achieve those goals and outcomes.
She cares, deeply about her clients and leads them to success through their specific skills and empowers them to find the who’s needed in their business instead of always being the “how”.
Challenges Faced During the Journey:
As a woman in business, she has faced the good ole boys club and rose above to initiate my female presence and energy or power to enroll, nurture and cultivate strong communities of support for many organizations.
She has hired large companies to assist me in marketing strategies that fell flat. She has spent countless amount of money investing in “silver bullets” and realized that there aren’t any. Scaling and growth takes time and perseverance and the right team to get you there.
Advice for Women Entrepreneurs:
Be YOU! Be Unique and don’t hide! You have everything you need to stand out, so use it to your advantage! Be proud to be a strong woman in business and don’t let anyone leave a label on you stating anything different.
