The Backstory
phrie is the founder of Valley Folk Studios. While she had been doing the work for 10+ years, this was her first official LLC she filed to formalize the work.
VFS is a creative firm focusing on cultural event production. When phrie started working with me she had a clear idea of where she wanted to go but not a clear path to get there.
The Problem
Valley Folk Studios struggled with gaining consistent traction and turning interest into a sustainable business model. They were unsure of their target customer, and without historical sales data, they couldn’t analyze past performance to guide future decisions. phrie had previously provided valuable insights through personal brand workshops and talks but wasn’t sure how to transfer that credibility to her newly established firm. She even considered joining an existing company to avoid the complexity of building a new entity. However, her unique approach made finding the right partnership difficult.
The Solution
CT Consultants provided personalized mentoring and strategic support tailored specifically to VFS’s needs. We combined multiple high-value managed services—executive administrative assistance, procurement management, and growth strategy—into a unified solution. Our expertise in procurement and talent strategy allowed us to streamline operations while supporting the studio’s growth.
Valley Folk Studios chose to work with us not only for our customized approach but also for our understanding and empathy toward creative and neurodivergent entrepreneurs, which set us apart.
