“It can be overwhelming making the transition from simply being a creative to being a creative running their own business. While I've been in the outdoor creative space for over 10 years, I only recently made the move to supporting myself and my family solely through freelance work in September. In many respects, I've felt lost when it came to creating estimates and invoices using best practices, determining my fair market rates, and growing my business and portfolio.

Nate offered excellent perspective, insight, and transparency into his business, its growth, managing retainer clients, and how he structures estimates, invoices and bids. I left the hour-long consultation with Nate feeling informed, encouraged and invigorated about my future in the space. It was truly invaluable to be able to ask and have Nate honestly answer very industry specific questions about what works and did not work for him during his journey as a business owner.”

“Nate was attentive &  introspective. His feedback was clearly based on him researching my business before our meeting. Easy-going, the conversation flowed and he readily shared his wisdom.

He was authentically supportive (not just because I was paying him), pointing out skills that I was unaware I had that will be an asset to a potential client. I have to admit, I was pretty jazzed about my journey forward after our meeting. Truly grateful for the meeting of like minds and how gracefully he steered me.”
