Leland Holgate

Combat Veteran, Founder of The Willful Warrior 

"Let me just tell you that before Estie came on board, it was literally a dumpster fire traveling down the river. Within the first three months of starting my business, I had made all the mistakes that pretty much all of us as business owners make.

Within the last three months of our business, we're seeing a regular twenty thousand plus coming in from the course that we have created. And we had one of our best months at just a little over thirty thousand just three months ago. 

So we're really excited tocontinue with Estie. There's no way that we're gonna stop working with her. She's stuck with us, and we're happy to have her. Because the biggest aspect of it for me was that she got me to focus on the important pieces of the business."

from 0 to business

LAUNCH CASE STUDY:
Sheila opened a brand new Fitness Center that we took from Zero to $1.5M in Year 1 by utilizing a viral social media launch. By the time the center opened, the buzz was so strong that  it earned $250K in
the first month.


Build A Marketing Machine

GROW CASE STUDY:
Davis had a therapy practice that was doing about $90K per year, but he was maxed out. We built both a marketing machine and online information products that scaled him up to $500K the next year. He's now on track to do $1M in year 2.


Earn More, Work less

SCALE CASE STUDY:
Mark was running a $1M consultancy, running himself into the ground. We  built an automated marketing machine, as well as efficient staffing & technology system. Now Mark's company is earning  $4M while he takes off weekends & holidays.

"One of the things I love most about working with Estie and her company is that she has this ability to look through the eyes of an entrepreneur and see the big vision picture, but also be able to drill down into the detail on what is required to action that vision, and that's a skill set that's very rare.

She is a pleasure to work with. She is absolutely on task, and she seems to care more for the realization of the vision than sometimes the entrepreneurs themselves. Again, it's been a pleasure to work with her and I highly recommend her to anybody who's looking to take their business and their marketing to the next level."

Is Strand Consulting the Right Solution for You and Your Business?

Strand is not…

  • ​Corporate mindset where we've got lots of money to throw at a problem to try to fix it, and if it doesn't work throw more money at it until it does.
  • ​A cut-and-paste, one-size-fits-all strategy that works for everyone else, so either works for you or there's something wrong with you.
  • Focused on only one area of your businesses (from financials to marketing), ignoring how that aspect integrates with the rest of your success.
  • ​In the business of delivering business plans or PowerPoints that sit on a shelf and collect dust, with no actionable guidance. 
  • Developing your strategy by ourselves in a cave after meeting with you once, then giving it to you as a present, leaving you bewildered and not helped.
  • Creating a strategy and leaving you on your own to hopefully figure out how to implement it correctly and on budget.
  • Sending over an implementation budget 2x-10x what you pay for strategy with no reliable return, draining your pockets of money that doesn't exist.
  • ​​Here just for the money, aiming to get as big as possible as fast as possible without caring about how it's done, running over anyone who gets in the way.
  • ​A get-rich-quick scheme for quick wins, that may bring in big money in the short term but lack staying power or stable and lasting profits.

​*each of the above is a based on multiple true stores, the names of the innocent and guilty have been removed (because we're so nice)

Strand is …

  • Small business mindset where every dollar you spend on your business is a dollar out of your pocket and your dinner budget.
  • ​In the business of creating custom strategies that are built for your unique business, industry and personal circumstances and made to work for you.
  • Focused on all areas of your business (from financials to marketing) and how they integrate so it makes sense as a full-picture approach.
  • ​In the business of delivering strategy plans that become your business bible, guiding you daily to success.
  • Meeting with you regularly to understand your needs, shift your mindset and co-create a strategy that's a user-friendly roadmap to your success.
  • In partnership with you beyond the strategy creation, working with you and for you to get it done and implemented correctly and on budget. 
  • Optimizing every dollar, with an average 10x return on any marketing spend, as well as 6-figure earning organic strategies that cost $0 to implement.
  • ​The place where those who have a soul calling get to grow that into a beautiful business offering, with care for each person they impact along the way.
  • ​​A strategic guidance consulting firm that builds your business over a period of months to years, for stable and lasting lifetime success.

“Working with Estie gave me complete clarity on my business. I took Marketing Magic and also worked with Estie as a private client. Estie has enabled my business to serve more women, and she helped me problem-solve in all the areas I felt stuck.

My revenue has since tripled and continues to grow as a result of her great insights into my business.

If you have lots of potential to serve the world with your business and need help making it happen, I highly recommend Estie. She understands each person and their business and works with your strengths to maximize your potential.”

"I had been in business for 24 years prior to working with Estie. After working with her within a few months I was able to make big changes which has changed the trajectory of my business completely. She gave me the confidence to be the leader that was inside of me. 

Through this confidence I was able to open a second business which was profitable in year one which is almost unheard of in this day and age. Her positive energy and brilliant mind makes working with her an absolute dream. I highly recommend her for anyone struggling in growing and scaling their business."
