Scattered to Streamlined

Streamlined Planning Full-Year Program

A full year of one-to-one planning and support where a solopreneur or business professional transforms their business into the profession of their dreams.

Are you ready to get your business “unstuck”, see it with fresh eyes, and achieve your goals faster than you thought possible?

I have found these planning sessions very helpful. In fact, we are fast getting to the point where we could have more appointments requested than possible to fit in a day. This is a result of the planning we have done through you.

WHAT OTHERS HAVE TO SAY ABOUT PLANNING WITH CONNIE:

“As a benefit of Ms. Whitesell’s analyses, we were able to move with clarity and optimism . . . We came to quick agreement on where our future was headed and what we needed to do to get there . . .Happily, we are on our way to our most productive and profitable year ever.”
EC, VP, Credit Union Board Of Directors
I reached my 3rd quarter goal in February! I still can’t believe how productive I have been compared to past years. I truly am going from scattered to streamlined.
SR, Sr. Sales Director
This was such a valuable experience for me to keep me on track to hit both my professional and personal goals throughout the year. I revisit my plan often and it has been extremely helpful to my business. I would highly recommend Connie for all your strategic planning needs.
TW, Senior-level Sales Consultant
Connie’s program to streamline my business has been the best thing I could have done for myself and my business. The ability to get all my ideas down on paper and create a strategic plan for the year has made me incredibly productive in the first quarter of the new year. Without Connie’s guidance, I would be jumping from one new idea to another without a specific, well thought out plan. I still can’t believe how productive I have been compared to past years.
KP, Career Coach
Connie ALWAYS does an amazing job to set you up to take major action in your business, whether it’s a new business or an older business. It was perfect timing as I ramp up my own business to start setting up proper timelines, breaking down steps to achieve my objectives, and continued ways to excel and continue your motivation. She touches on all aspects of your business, even your personal management (mental health, exercise, etc). Obviously, it is always up to YOU to take that action, advice and those next steps, but she does a great job getting that plan created and having you think of ways to achieve greatness.
MA, Commercial Lending Broker
I did Connie’s planning intensive and I knew less than two weeks into this year that it was going to be a game-changer for me. 100% recommend not only a conversation but participating in her programs!
AG, Corporate Attorney
“Connie and I have been working together since the beginning of 2020 and she has kept me on track during the COVID-19 pandemic. We have developed a structured approach which has allowed my business to not only get through, but has set me up to thrive in the coming years!”
