What is a "Shanti Way"?

Shanti is a Sanskrit term meaning “peace.”

I strongly believe that business can be done kindly, intentionally and successfully by putting people first. When your intention is focused on helping and serving – your tribe will find you, and your success will be inevitable.

THE WHY:

That’s simple, I’m super passionate about those that seek to change the world.

“If you light a lamp for someone else it will also brighten your path.” ~Buddha

SUPERHEROS:

Yep, I’m a die-hard superhero save the world fan! (Are ya starting to see a theme here:P) Throw in a few supernatural shows from Netflix and I call that a perfect movie night!

STREET CRED:

I opened my first Holistic Wellness store, massage & yoga studio with no budget & big dreams over 20 years ago.

Like most entrepreneurs, I had to boot-strap my dreams with my personal credit card. That’s when I started to fall in love with marketing. More to the point, effective & smart marketing that didn’t cost a fortune!

See, I had to start making money and get the word out with virtually no marketing budget. I had to cut through the sales crap and find what worked now.

Since then, I have started 3 other successful small businesses, including Shanti Way in 2009, designing functional and pretty(my words) websites for local yoga studios, massage therapists, artists & more.

Some of my clients are still in business(Yay!) and they are still enjoying 1st page Google rankings for their local industry through the SEO I used on their sites.

In the background, I never quite quenched the hunger for marketing knowledge & trying out all the things, so I continued feeding my brain and upping my game for today’s online world.

Last year I busted out of my design shoes and started sharing and helping my clients adapt to the challenges of 2020 by putting into place systems to make money virtually instead of in person.

Now I want to help even more people in the holistic business community shine their light and get their voices heard. And here we are….:P

I’m currently not taking on any web design clients at this time. Consultations only.
