Showcasing Our Work with Coaches & Consultants
Afila Group
“Casey did a great job refreshing my logo and helping me crystalize my workshop message and process. I’ll be able to serve clients more effectively.”
- Erik Beckler
The Details
Problem:
Erik Beckler had established a reputation as a coach, speaker and author. His content was solid and unique. However, it was scattered and not ready to sell as a workshop. He wanted to package it in a way that allowed him to charge more, look more polished, and attract attention.
Solution:
Erik needed new company branding and a packaged workshop to sell to corporations, teams, and nonprofits. The content he was already using was repackaged to create a 1/2 day workshop that was ready to sell and easy to repeat. We also created promotional materials for him to use in creating interest.
Deliverables:
- New Company Logo and Style Guide
- Workshop promotional flier
- Workshop website landing page
- Custom Graphics
- Workshop Workbook
- Workshop Powerpoint Deck
- Branding and messaging guide

The Details
Problem:
Dana Holt, CEO of Holt Consulting, was launching a new audit package for nonprofit organizations. However, she didn’t have any promotional materials and her audit report was lacking.
Solution:
We created a powerful start-to-finish package giving Dana what she needs to sell and deliver the audit. With this collection of resources, she can easily share the value of the offering and get an easy ‘yes’ from prospects. Plus, when she delivers, they are thrilled with their final report!

Focus Consulting
“I lacked clarity around how to share action plans with clients. I would give them great advice and throw around some handouts that were semi-helpful, but it felt scrappy. Casey helped me to shape the content into clear, actionable tools that I could use to serve clients. And, frankly, having them also helped me sell new clients. When they were able to see the work I was doing as highly polished, it gave me credibility.”
- Kristin Wiersma, Focus Consulting
The Details
Problem:
As a new business, Kristin, CEO of Focus Consulting, had not yet developed the custom content that would set her apart from her competition. Without this, she was one of many options for a general crowd of potential clients.
Solution:

- Wayne Herring, BBC Owner
The Details
Problem:
Wayne Herring, Owner, and CEO of Business Builder Camp, is a creative, high-energy, passionate leader, coach, and teacher. He generates new ideas like a machine but sometimes struggles to get them polished to be easily used. He has countless tools he has created and uses, but they are scattered everywhere and inconsistent.
Solution:
We worked with Wayne for over three months to capture his tools, ideas, and resources and created a library of documents. This library aligns with the core areas he focuses on in his teaching, group workshops, and coaching. Now Wayne has nearly two dozen beautifully designed resources to build upon.
