YOU DON’T NEED TO DO ALL THE THINGS FOR ALL THE PEOPLE. JUST DO THE THINGS YOU ARE CALLED TO DO.
clarity
cut through the bullsh*t
Brand clarity will empower you to build a business on your terms so you can live your best life.
Finding your focus by building on your strengths and passion will enable you to work with the customers who inspire you. After all, you cannot be all things to all people.
It is hard to see through the fog of constant messaging. Without brand clarity marketing is a waste of time and money. I won’t let you waste time or money. Before we work together on creative or marketing, you must have a foundational brand that cuts through the bullsh*t.
Ignite your energy and build your confidence with a clear brand!
working together
how we partner
Building a strong brand foundation takes a partnership. We will work closely together as we build. I cannot do it without a LOT of input from you. I use a three-step process to completely take your brand from idea to reality. We start by building your brand through discovery and planning. Next, we’ll dive into making creative content. Finally, we’ll launch your new brand and market to reach your ideal customer.
Not only will you and I work together, but I’ll bring in my other partners to perfect your brand. Just like you knew it was time to outsource your branding and marketing, I know when it’s time to outsource as well. My partners include talented professionals in graphic design, copywriting, and videography. I’ll select the optimal partners to help us complete your brand.
I want you to feel confident about your brand, your creative, and your marketing choices.
01: Brand Building
Well-built brands are emotive, experiential, and have style. They use every touchpoint to connect effectively with their audience, and they take time and talent to build.
02: Creative
Each piece of brand collateral will be designed to serve its specific purpose and communicate effectively. Your images, copy, design, and style, will be cohesive and on brand.
03: Marketing
Modern marketing will be strategically deployed to attract and convert the right type of customers. From websites to business cards, I’ve got you covered.
all the things
services & products
Think of me as your Director of Brand and Marketing with a staff of specialists. Instead of building or working for a firm full of employees, I have developed relationships with creatives and technical specialists to forge strategic partnerships as we build individualized brands. The partnership approach allows me to provide you with quality and affordable products and services.

coaching
One of those “life coaches” with an online certificate?
HELL NO! More like a guest coach on specific topics that will help you be more efficient and effective in your work, life, and leisure. We all need a little help now and then, someone to offer an unbiased perspective with thoughtful advice – someone to help you form an actionable plan, hold you accountable, and not accept your excuses. I can help with organization, process development, time management, work strategies, habit tracking, prioritizing, and photography and social media skills training.
For the record, I have a legitimate degree in coaching, a Master of Science in Physical Education with a concentration in coaching from Indiana State University. I also hold coaching licenses in soccer from NSCAA and USSF and coached and taught at the collegiate level before pursuing a career as a small business owner.
hello there
meet cory ann
I’m Cory Ann, an avid traveler, chronic organizer, and small business owner. In 2001 I started my first small business. That business is still going strong, but I’ve learned a lot of lessons with the successes and failures of other attempts. In addition to working on my small businesses, I’ve run for public office, helped other small businesses, and managed seven-figure marketing budgets. My experiences coupled with the skills I’ve honed make me uniquely equipped and excited to help others succeed in similar situations.
Let’s chat, about dogs, travel, organizing, and the communities we help by building our businesses.
