Hello, I’m Karissa Skirmont and I help passionate entrepreneurs who are overwhelmed and tired of trying to figure it out by themselves!! My strength is to be able to see the full picture AND each of the tiny pieces that make up the puzzle of an business. I have a holistic approach utilizing a “right-and-left” brain balance and using emerging technologies to fully leverage time and resources.
I LOVE technology and set my client’s mind at ease by coaching them through the steps needed to build a strong, branded, online presence.
I’m based in Council Bluffs, Iowa USA (Central Time) and have worked with clients internationally, in countries including Australia, Thailand, United Kingdom, Canada, and the United Arab Emirates.
My Office
I’ve put a lot of thought into what surrounds me where I spend the greatest part of my life and would love to share it with you.
I have three 32″ HP LED monitors* on a 72″ Black Versa Center Desk with Dioder 4 Piece Light Strip Set* (set to purple) , Merc Stealth Steelseries Keyboard* (that glows purple), Logitech G502* gaming mouse, Blue Yeti USB Microphone* and very comfortable Realspace PRO Quantum Mesh Chair (bought January 2012 so it lasted over 8+ years!).
I have more photos and details on my personal blog http://meetkarissa.com/workspace.
What I Stand For…
Honesty and integrity. I don’t subscribe to the high pressure, scammy, scarcity marketing tactics that are so prevalent.
Things done right! This means while perfection is not always possible, it will be pretty darn close. You can feel comfortable knowing that it’s in good hands.
Confidentiality. A high degree of professionalism and personal discretion. I guard the high level of access to accounts that I am given.
Efficiency. I have a strong desire to revolutionize, improve, maximize, optimize, grow, and make things run more efficiently.
Loyalty. I have my client’s interest at heart, sometimes even more than my own.
Ownership. I take my clients business’ and treat it as my own. I can’t help but grow to care so much for your success and become an ambassador and champion for it.
