A dynamic speaker, author and business expert with a deep knowledge of the art of human connections, Cathy Kuzel has been supporting ambitious entrepreneurs and business professionals for more than 35 years.
“You would never know that I was rather shy when I was young. Talking to strangers was challenging. Now look at me – my career puts me at the front of the room speaking to hundreds of strangers!”
As the Connected Woman, a business consultant and professional mentor, I find great personal fulfillment in helping others succeed. Combining proven tools with focused coaching and “no excuses” accountability, my clients are guided through their perceived obstacles, helping them to build solid business foundations so they can stand up, stand out and step forward in their business.
Very few business coaches and consultants have worked with clients in a multitude of industries like I have. This means I’m able to see what works across the board and able to share concepts from one industry and use it in another industry with big results.
I work with people just like you in service –based businesses and other solo entrepreneurs who are really good at what they do; however, have never been taught exactly how to market, sell, attract clients or set up systems so they always attract clients and grow their business. That said, the professions I’ve worked with run the whole gamut.
I work with entrepreneurs from a wide variety of industries and professions, including but not limited to:
Accountants, Mechanics, Web Designers, Vintners, Copywriters, Speakers, Authors, Makeup Artists, Virtual Assistants, Photographers, Nutritionists, Hair Stylists, Internet Marketing, Executive Coaches, Business Coaches, Graphic Designers, Personal Trainers, Marketing Consultants, Real Estate Brokers, Interior Designers, Financial Advisors, Organizers, Boutique Store Owners, Image Consultants, Career Coaches, Event Planners, Caterers, Life Coaches, Bookkeepers, Personal Assistants, Coffee Franchisees, and others!
My clients are ambitious, high-achieving entrepreneurs who want a step-by-step system to create a profitable business from a mentor with a proven track record of doing just that.
You’ll learn to let go of limiting beliefs and give yourself permission to “Stand Up, Stand Out & Step Forward” to have the success you dream of.
