COMMUNICATIONS

Don’t just share your message.

Share your magic.

Hi! I’m Lara.

Message & Muse is dedicated to demystifying communications strategy for the modern business owner.

We do two things:

1) Help business owners leverage social media and other platforms as a tool to get their message across, without letting it take over their life (or taking them away from what they do best)!

2) Develop educational resources to help people of different ages better understand communication, how it shows up in our day-to-day lives, and how they can use that knowledge to their advantage to get their voice heard.

How I Help

Brand Voice & Messaging

For when:

“No one’s really done what we’re doing. How can we explain it so that they’ll understand it, but also get why it’s different and innovative?”

Communications Education Workshops

For when:

“My team is all over the place. Now they need to communicate with external parties, but they aren’t trained in communications or communications etiquette. I just need them to understand some basic principles.”

Social Media & Content Strategy

For when:

“I just need someone to look at my business, and tell me what the bare minimum is that I need to be doing to market my business, and how I can use social media to my advantage.”

Rapid Response Counsel

For when:

We never know when to comment on what’s going on in the world. How do build a process to facilitate us in deciding quickly? Also: WHAT DO WE SAY?!?!?!!”

1:1 Writing Coaching

For when:

“I have to draft a bunch of things. I know what I want to say but it comes out a jumbled mess. I need someone to help pull the words out from my brain and organize them clearly.”

Speaking and Media Prep Sessions

For when:

"I was invited to speak on this [panel/podcast] and it’s a great opportunity, but I’m nervous and don’t know how to prepare. I’m scared they’re going to ask me about [xyz[ and I don’t know what to say.”
