An irrepressible entrepreneur, Maria entered the business world at age 14, landed on Wall Street at age 17, and shattered the glass ceiling at age 21. Fiercely determined and keenly insightful, she became a bond trader when female executives were as rare as pink diamonds. Maria spent the next 20 years streamlining corporate operations and generating profits for her employers. Her penchant for dispensing valuable advice became evident as she mentored other women, transforming secretaries into traders. In 1998, brimming with over 25 years of business experience, Maria founded Elevating Your Business, a business development company dedicated to helping high-achieving women who own professional service businesses. Maria customizes solutions to detect and overcome each client's unique obstacles, helping them create the business and lifestyle they only imagined possible. When asked why they hire Maria, her clients consistently cite these three reasons: Her ability to "give them their life back" by systematizing and simplifying the essential functions of business, which they hate doing, including: planning, administration, operations, and marketing. Her insightful, kick-ass solutions to their business problems allow them to get "unstuck" faster, attract their ideal clients, and achieve more in a few months than they could after years of struggling. Her focus on finances including budgeting, pricing, and creating products for their marketing funnel that has increased their sales 25%-400% in 4 to 12 months! "Maria's input has helped me organize my business more in three months than I had in the nine months prior. She asks the right questions and doesn't mince words. Her vast storehouse of business and marketing knowledge makes her a valuable partner in my business. She's helped me package my services, allowing me to increase my fees by 200% and the monthly sales of the company are more than 300% from where we were just 8 months ago.

Getting Started With Maria Marsala
How Can I Make This Decision Easy for YOU? Have you ever done something that you were really looking forward to attending, something you intuitively knew would have a profound impact on your business, only to find out that it was a "sell fest" and not that great something you were excited to attend? OR worse, you were told, maybe even guaranteed to accomplish something and it was a broken promise. Being a life-long learner, I've been around that block myself once or twice. So I can relate to how frustrating it is when money is spent on something that doesn't deliver. Here is my promise to you. Pay for a Power Hour session (not an intro, a real brainstorming session). If after attending, you don't feel that you got your monies worth, I will refund the fee. Period. Don't want to pay? Ask for an Exploratory Consult instead. Either way it's your life and business that's at stake.
