Do you become frustrated with marketing,
overwhelmed by "people" issues and
struggle to grow your business to the next level?

Is it difficult to answer the question "what do you do?" quickly, and with positive impact?
Too often, even savvy, accomplished experts in their own field - like you- have difficulty in successfully taking full advantage of speaking or networking events. You know this can work, but your results, in the form of new clients or business growth, don't justify the effort.

Does this ring a bell for you? Imagine instead being able to master the “game” of marketing and to become skilled at producing consistent and predictable results from your efforts. Imagine having a strategic visioning process in place, creating ever increasing clarity about what you are doing, where you are going, and why. Imagine knowing that you can do it, and in fact you are doing it…no holds barred. That’s where the rubber meets the road and rolls easily toward your chosen destination. The place where your strategic vision is clear, your marketing game is on, and your mindset is supportive.

If you currently are struggling with marketing and don’t know how to grow your business, remember you are not alone. People who have invested time and effort in developing expertise in a field, and have developed an exceptional service, probably have not had the time to also become experts at marketing and growing a business. Our society even seems to subtly reward people who are labeled as “brilliant, but bad at business”. Most of us quickly find those kinds of rewards unfulfilling.

When it’s time to shed the weight of business stagnation, and move fully into the identity of a successful professional who knows their field of expertise and is savvy about the business of business, it’s time to take advantage of proven expertise. You do not have to reinvent the wheel to get rolling. I’m Janet Schieferdecker and I developed the “Artemis Business Growth Roadmap” to help you implement a strategic visioning process that simultaneously builds momentum and clarity.
The Roadmap 3-step process helps you get clarity about your destination, why you are going there and how you will do it. The resulting “Map of WOW” keeps you focused on your journey, making your chosen results a certainty.

In my seven years of coaching experience, time and time again, I experienced the pressing need to learn better marketing skills both for myself and my clients. Tactics alone weren’t enough, and my background in product marketing needed translation to work effectively in small service businesses. After product testing many, many marketing programs and theories, I became certified in the best program I could find: the “Fast Track Marketing Program”. Developed by marketing guru Robert Middleton this program is specifically tailored to the needs of independent service professionals. You too can master the game of marketing. By taking the seven steps of the fast track, you will learn how the game of marketing is played …and won.

Learn to answer the “what do you do?” question in a way that develops attention and interest. By speaking to the needs and desires of your clients you will be able to utilize information as “currency” to buy attention, time, credibility and trust. The program teaches the tactical how-to of marketing in a way that enables you to get your plans done, and get predictable and consistent results...more clients.

Understanding is important, but will you do it? Will you follow through? Creating a productive mindset is a theme that is woven through both programs and all of my individual session work. My programs are delivered regularly in live group workshops, as tele-classes, and through individual mentoring or on-site consulting. On-going support is built into every program.
