WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF YOU HAD REAL, PERSONALIZED ACTION STEPS TO HELP YOU ACHIEVE YOUR GOALS & MOVE YOUR BUSINESS FORWARD?

Hi, I'm Mary!

Since starting Twenty Two West in 2015, I have had makers frequently reach out to me with questions about how they can grow their business. I want to dedicate time to dig into your business, guide newcomers, and answer questions with a 1:1 personal touch.

I will be stepping out of my studio and into yours! Not located in Charlotte? Not a problem at all. This is about you! I would love to meet with you in person, over the phone, or on a video chat.

Regardless of where you are, I’m here to get you unstuck!

So you have an idea and you want to turn it into a business. I want to hear all about your dreams and help you make them happen!

I’m rooting for you! I believe this is the most amazing job but understand the pressure of needing to pay the bills. I’m here to tell you it is possible and I can help you get there.

You are doing well and are ready to have help. I can help guide you through how to find the most talented employees, how to know how much you can afford to pay them, and how to build a culture that will make you and your employees excited to go to work in the studio each day.

Testimonials

Mary is a lovely mix of positivity, intelligence, veracity, and kindness. She brings a designer's touch to the conversation and a thoroughness + thoughtfulness that I really appreciate. She helped me uncover a few holes that I didn't know where in my plan, processes, and even in my thinking about the project. I'm super thankful for my time with her!

It's easy to get wrapped up in your own world and miss the obvious (or not so obvious). Mary has a great style of helping you through her own experience or talking you through something new, so you can find the answer yourself. Definitely recommend!

Working with Mary has been a game-changer for my business here in Tulsa! Her guidance has given me the clarity and confidence I needed to grow sustainably, from knowing when and how to bring on employees to understanding the best business structure for my goals. With her insights on scaling, wholesale, and fine-tuning my accounting, I feel more aligned and empowered in every aspect of my business. Mary's advice has truly transformed my daily operations, and I now have a roadmap that brings me closer to my vision as a small business owner.
