"Swell Strategies' marketing expertise has been invaluable to
my business. With thorough research and interviews with my key employees,
she put together a marketing plan for the company that includes a budget,
some foundational marketing activities for the year and a re-prioritizing
of marketing tactics. In other words, where there once was nothing,
now there is a focused and strategic plan in place."

"Thanks to Virginia, I've successfully branded my business. She
has the ability to really listen, uncover what's unique about me and
my business, and put all that into a marketing plan that works. My marketing
materials and my message are clear and consistent, and people 'get me.'
When I walk into a room of strangers I am confident that I can clearly
communicate what I do and easily identify potential clients."
-Linda Landon President

Swell Strategies conducted a feasibility study that
was the basis of our decision to move ahead with the development of
our new software product. Virginia's knowledge of the industry combined
with her understanding of running a successful business made me feel
more confident about our product's market potential, and we are moving
towards a launch later this year.

Swell Strategies is a consulting firm dedicated to improving the three major areas of small business angst: finance & accounting, managing people, and marketing. We take a proven, scientific approach to increasing company health with the ultimate goal of increasing profitability and owners' wealth.
We have learned two important things after years of working with small businesses: 1) They have limited time; and 2) They have limited funds. Because of this, our process is the single most important aspect of what we do. We have developed a proprietary, step-by-step systematic approach to help small business owners increase profitability in a short amount of time and at a reasonable cost.
Swell Strategies is passionate about helping small business owners develop healthy businesses that provide wealth for the owners, shareholders and employees. We know how tough it is to run a small business, and we know how tight the purse strings need to be held to control costs. That's why we specialize in small businesses only, and we streamline our business operations to serve the market both excellently and efficiently.
Swell Strategies is dedicated to honoring our social conscience. As such, we conduct the following activities to give back to the world: 1) We offset the carbon footprints of our employees, contractors and clients; 2) We donate 25% of our gross profits each year to small business microloan programs in developing countries; and 3) We donate 25% of our gross profits each year into a fund we are building to support economic and entrepreneurial redevelopment in Zimbabwe.
Virginia Ginsburg, President and Chief Consultant of Swell Strategies, founded the company in 2005 based on her passion for helping small business owners solve big problems. She works with small businesses of all sizes, at all stages of development.
