Testimonials
I’ve been helping Interior Design Businesses and Workrooms reach their financial and operational goals for over 15 years. Hear what our clients have to say below to learn more about the experience.
“Working with Michele gave us the knowledge to understand the numbers behind our business.”
“We are now able to plan our growth, strategically, year after year.”
When Virginia and her partner joined, they were growing rapidly and felt like the numbers behind their business were a bit out of control. There seemed to be a disconnect between company growth and profits. We dissected each area of the company to make informed decisions, and worked through all the financials to help them gain clarity and ownership around their numbers.

After 17 years in business, Kacey was fed up. She had a laundry list of areas of improvement and had no idea what to tackle first or how to go about doing it. Michele’s system helped identify the most critical needs and map out a plan to solve them. Kacey learned to face her fears and take on new challenges with excitement. She realized she could learn and master the financials and other areas of her company.

Shawna interviewed numerous coaches before deciding to join Michele. Her expectation began with understanding her profitability, but became so much more. Michele helped Shawna find her WHY which had a profound impact on both her business and her life. While the numbers were important, Shawna realized that the mindset work that came before the numbers was what mattered most.
