Rejoin Coaching

Rejoin is a holding company for my digital brands and businesses that I started while designing my way out of my corporate job. We own a few small online businesses: Careercloud.com, Quotebook Journal and my Rejoin Coaching business.

Advisory Board Member

I help high achievers break corporate dependence and build beautiful Portfolio Careers for freedom, family and finances.

I help high achieving professionals BREAK corporate dependence and build Self-Directed Lives.
I believe that to transform our circumstances, we have to BREAK what's not working, on purpose. And do it smartly.

My Career Design Lab is where your golden handcuffs and unfulfilling career go to die, and where we reimagine work aligned with who you want to be, who you want to serve and what legacy you want to leave.

Like you:
I know what it's like to be burned out, unfulfilled and secretly DYING for new opportunities. 
I know what it's like to seek my identity and self worth from a job only to realize the mirage.
I know what it's like to sacrifice my health and family for "achievement."

The difference is I did something about it.

In 2018, work wasn't working for me, so I broke it and methodically designed a new life with intention.
I used my job as an investor in my future. I figured out my advantages and then built a side business that I took to full time corporate exit, then scaled to over $1m in revenue.

I built an entire process to help me figure out my re-invented career and now I use that to help other corporate pros smartly build futures that are Self-Directed, intentional and successful - that is my purpose.

Previous, my career spanned:

Financial Futures and Derivatives Trading
3 Startups
Freelance Consulting
Corporate Innovation

I infuse major lessons from these unique experiences to help you craft a dynamic, portfolio career that is adaptable, intentional, purpose driven and never dependent on the whims of corporate structures.

My role revolves around redefining marketing strategies, enhancing customer engagement, and driving the acquisition of new customers.

In my capacity, I've worked closely with SMB owners to conduct comprehensive assessments of their existing marketing strategies, identifying key areas for improvement. Whether it's harnessing the potential of SEO, optimizing social media advertising, or integrating vertical solutions such as e-commerce, online booking, or seamless click-and-pay systems, I've been dedicated to tailoring strategies that align with the unique needs of each business.

Over the course of three years, I've had the opportunity to engage with SMB owners, offering strategic insights and recommendations to revitalize their marketing approach.

These campaigns have proven to be a valuable asset in capturing the interest of prospects and converting them into loyal customers.

Digital Marketing Consultant

You might be surprised to learn about my past life as a nutrition industry network marketing professional. I operate on all levels, from recruiting new distributors to training others in the field.

But that was just one piece of what made me successful at running an operation with 360 degrees of influence and authority over everything it did - products training, leadership training, marketing & social media training for distributors & team leaders like myself.

I ran a brick & mortar operation, but I wanted to see what it was like running my own online business and move my operation online. 

My professional career has been built on the foundation of a strong work ethic, interpersonal skills, and an innate motivation to help people.

My interest in helping others led me into network marketing where I created my own company that focused entirely distributing nutrition products for healthier living.

Marketing and Sales Maverick Embarking on a New Adventure: Acquiring My First Business in 12 Months!

From the vibrant island of Martinique to the bustling business hubs of the world, my journey is a tale of passion, resilience, and transformation.

Early Beginnings: A Spark Ignited
Born and raised in Martinique, I was captivated by the transformative power of business acquisitions early on. My academic journey in Sales and Marketing honed my skills and deepened my appreciation for small businesses and their community impact.

The Mission: Beyond Acquisition
With a vision to create a diverse small business portfolio, my interest goes beyond mere acquisition. I am driven to honor the legacies of previous owners while injecting innovative marketing strategies to spur growth. My ultimate goal? To be a catalyst in small business acquisitions, especially in transitioning family-owned enterprises towards new success horizons.

The Expertise: A Decade of Refinement
My professional foundation is built on a decade of sales and marketing expertise, reinforced by a solid finance background. This unique blend of skills positions me adeptly for the intricate process of business acquisitions, where I excel in pinpointing viable targets, adept negotiation, and seamless deal closure.

The Impact: Transforming Small Businesses
As a marketing consultant, I've empowered numerous small businesses to boost their online presence and sales significantly. My holistic approach, encompassing SEO, paid advertising, compelling copywriting, and dynamic social media strategies, elevates customer engagement and revenue and enhances the businesses' acquisition appeal. I focus on meeting business goals and cultivating valuable customer relations in sales.

The Milestones: A Testament to Success
At Linkeo, my tenure as a Digital Marketing Specialist involved advising over 500 SMB owners tailoring strategies to uplift their businesses. My work at Xacte contributed to an impressive over 2 million in ARR since 2021, showcasing my capacity to drive significant revenue growth.

The Focus: The Next Chapter
My interest lies in B2B manufacturing and professional services companies, where I aim to apply my expertise in business purchase strategies and valuation, assisting these businesses through pivotal growth and transition phases.

As I gear up for my first business acquisition in 2024, I’m keen to connect with those knowledgeable about local business sales in Greater Montreal or involved in SME ownership transfer and M&A. If you share the same interest for small business acquisition, I invite you to reach out. Let’s exchange ideas, discuss opportunities, and potentially collaborate.
