Maria Carlton is a Business Transformation Specialist helping entrepreneurs to LOVE being the boss again. She combines her experiences, expertise, talents and skills from publishing, speaking, coaching, marketing, and brand communication to help SME’s and professional service providers to radically transform their business into polished, profitable, highly functional and easily identifiable companies with loyal customers, raving fans, and happy productive staff and managers.
I’ve a simple set of formulas, a tonne of practical knowledge and experience with SMEs, and resources and tools to significantly help my clients to move forward and thrive regardless of economic pressures.
My philosophy is simple:
Let’s get your business values identified, and use these to re-write the rule-book for all parts of your business. Then let’s implement your brand values into all your marketing. Your brand communication is something that affects every part of your marketing – so all your business planning and marketing strategy needs to reflect this.
Once we get this part right – then we can also work on all the parts of your business that can be brought to new levels.
Profitability | Processes | People | Training | Marketing | Communication
When all these are addressed through our journey together, the results of our work will be evident in your bottom line, the amount of fire-fighting that no longer interrupts every opportunity, and the people who want to be part of making your vision become a reality.
What makes Maria Carlton different to all the other consultants and coaches out there?
That’s a great question!
I’m blessed with having learned a lot about SME business – particularly retail and professional service and trades businesses – in the past 25 years. I trained with Coach University for my coaching certificate over two and a half years – not a lightweight programme by any means! From that base I added my knowledge of marketing, retail and branding to a six year publishing career, specialising in working with non-fiction specialists throughout NZ, Australia, UK, SA, USA. Then wrote books and developed a professional speaking and training career to that.
This means that I’ve spent 25 years working hard to really understand what does and what doesn’t work for business owners, managers, and entrepreneurs. I bring this knowledge and acquired wisdom to every client I work with.
Now – I work with business owners and their teams who really want to move into a whole new phase of their business and need help with identifying all the steps along the way and how to apply them.
Special Distinction:
I also network extensively with the very best trainers, SEO specialists, marketing, management, development specialists in the world to help ensure I can offer far more than just average links and resources. When you work with me – I bring you an established contact list of ‘best in the business’ specialists who can also be part of our journey together when and as needed.
Remember how much fun it was to be in business a few years ago?
Wouldn’t you like to feel that way again?
