What’s Karen’s methodology?
When it comes to “brandstorming” for your career or business…. Karen will enthusiastically bring you the same outside of the box thinking she tapped into to become a Senior VP in advertising at age 27 (having worked for J.W.T., Y&R, McCann Erickson, Gray, MTV, etc) – plus the same insights/skill sets which helped her bloom into a best selling author with over 1 million books sold — plus garner herself columns in AOL’s Select Career Coaches Group, Emmy award winning Minyanville.com, AM-NY newspaper, Oprah, Psychology Today, and Huffingtonpost – plus get herself talked about in The The New York Times, Fast Company, Business Week, LATimes, Philadelphia Inquirer, Examiner.com, Chicago Tribune, USA Today, New York Magazine, New Yorker Magazine, Self, Cosmo – and more.
When it comes to helping you to overcome personal challenges… Karen will help you to jackhammer drill down to the trouble-making “why” buried beneath your “can’t.” Then Karen will give you an easy-to-follow action plan, based on the latest modern psychological research – as well as empowering ancient philosophy from her favorite philosopher buddy, Aristotle. (Karen’s an expert on resiliency psychology for Psychology Today – having written THE BOUNCE BACK BOOK, now gearing up for it’s 7th printing – and praised by happiness experts like Tony Robbins and Gretchen Rubin.)
You’ll want to hire Karen if:
- You want to create a highly remarkable brand – which is also a highly marketable brand! (Karen will help you with writing, ghostwriting, art directing, brand-storming, website building, book publishing, product packaging, marketing, social media-ing. Past clients have included CEO’s, TV producers, law firms, ad agencies, writers, nutritionists, fashion designers, actors, and a variety of entrepreneurs).
- You need an outside of the box consultant – to shake things up – and move profits upwards. (Karen’s been brought in as a box-bursting consultant to do session work for companies like Faith Popcorn’s Brain Reserve, Oxygen, Lifetime, MTV, Vh-1, L’Oreal, Revlon, Avon, Lee Hunt Associates, Pando etc.)
- You want to morph from doing the thing you’re doing – to doing something either a little or totally different. (Karen believes that nowadays both companies and individuals must constantly reinvent who they are and adapt with highly innovative thinking! Today safety is the new dangerous! Safety is the new STUPID! The world is constantly changing! You must not forget to change with it!)
- You want to live with more meaning and passion! (Karen’s a big believer that the purpose of your life is to find and do the purpose of your life. Karen will help you to follow your heart – but she’ll always make sure you bring your brain with you!)
- You’re going through a particularly challenging time – dealing with a trauma, setback, layoff, divorce, illness, etc…
- You want a one of a kind piece of art work – as a private or corporate commission for your home or office or as a special gift. Or you want a unique attention-getting, conversation-starting advertisement or business card for your brand.
What’s the process and fee for hiring Karen to get un-stuck?
Karen recommends you start with a PILLAGE AND CONQUER PROGRAM to help get you un-stuck in either your business or personal life.
These programs each begin with a PILLAGE AND CONQUER QUESTIONNAIRE – where Karen invites you to answer a variety of jackhammer-drilling questions about your present challenges, fears, needs, dreams, vulnerabilities, strengths, passions, successes, disappointments, patterns, priorities, resources, plans, support system, etc. Plus at the end of the questionnaire, Karen requests you clearly state your specific desired goal – so you can have measurable results – and Karen can best know where to laser in during her live-session time with you.
(NOTE: If you’re coming to Karen to get un-stuck in your career or business, Karen will also ask you for specific relevant links or materials.)
Karen’s PILLAGE AND CONQUER Program is $599.00 – paid in advance by Paypal, and subject to availability. Karen charges this amount because she’s not merely charging for the specific minute-hand-going-round-that-clock – but for the helping-hand-value of her outside-of-the-box insights – both during her advance time analyzing your questionnaire (1 hour) and talking tough-love, limit-belief-breaking, outside-of-the-box-bursting concepts with you (1 hour).
What might you expect to happen?
If you’re coming to Karen to PILLAGE AND CONQUER your career, business or brand… you can expect to leave with perhaps a new tagline or a new book idea or a new book title or a new website idea or a new product name or a new business concept or a whole new soul-satisfying-opportunity to aim yourself at — as well helpful guidance for creating an actionable plan to implement her suggestions.
If you’re coming to Karen to PILLAGE AND CONQUER recovering from a bad break up or an adversity of some kind or a surprise change thrust upon you… Karen will help you turn your “crisis pain” into “crisis fuel” – showing you how to swap fears and doubts about the future for a happier, focused belief system which will create empowered excitement for challenges and changes ahead! Plus, you will leave with a stronger understanding of why you are where you are – alerting you to your subconscious patterns, blame excuses, mistaken thinking, and negative evidence collecting.
What’s Karen’s hourly fee?
If after an initial PILLAGE AND CONQUER program you want to hire Karen for ongoing consulting… she offers discounted hourly fees of $225.00. Without the PILLAGE AND CONQUER program, Karen’s hourly fee is $300.00.
What’s the process and fee for hiring Karen for a commissioned piece of art work for business, home or gifting?
Karen must first understand what kind of piece of art work you need – whether it’s for personal or corporate use – and how quickly you need it. Write to her on her contact page with more information.
