Extract from Sarah’s website:

My clients like to work with me because I’m structured, focused, result oriented, ‘the real thing’.  I’m known for my simple, no-nonsense Swiss efficiency, mixed with a good dose of Californian ‘yes we can’ attitude! (we lived in California from 2006 – 2010)

And she goes on to say:

There are a few things I’m good at:

• My ability to focus on the essentials & come up with the strategy for you to achieve your goals
• My experience(based on many failures) of getting clients online & what it takes to grow your business
• My skill to quickly put myself into your client’s shoes & create an offer that he/she can’t resist
• My empathy, passion& encouragement to use your uniqueness to grow your business

Oh, and I’m an Introvert.
