One-on-One with Crosby

Your Brain. My Brain. Your Face. My Face. Sparks. Magic. Plans.

Phew. You’ve got plans, girl. Life plans, career plans, a dozen half-done to-do lists and lots and lots of questions. How-to, when-to, and hell’s bells can I actually pull this off! You are excited, nervous, and well, a little bit overwhelmed.

Maybe you’ve been headed to bed/in the shower/driving along/staring at the shoes in Nordstrom Rack thinking, if I could just sit down with someone who has been there, if I could just get my questions answered, get some honest, constructive feedback I could strap on these stilettos and just go after it. Make it happen.

What say ye:

“After a recent move to L.A. and weeks of fruitless job hunting in fashion marketing and PR, I reached out to Crosby at PR Couture for guidance. Crosby and I determined a Breaking In session that would best suit my needs and we immediately got to work.  She started with poignant questions regarding my interests, objectives and goals.  With those in mind she then reviewed my resume and current online presence.  We discussed each at length in our One-On-One and I was astounded by how incredibly insightful her recommendations were.  It all made so much sense!

After my session with Crosby I made the suggested updates to my resume, started to explore new social media outlets relevant to my goals, re-vamped my fashion blog and researched the key PR websites she suggested in her follow-up ”action plan.” I now feel much more confident in my abilities and have since started working with Fred Segal to improve the online presence of select boutiques.  I truly believe I’m one step closer to becoming the marketing and PR professional I’ve always dreamed of becoming.  My One-On-One with Crosby made all the difference and it was absolutely worth the investment! ” – Sarah Orr”

“After a few years working in fashion PR, social media as well as writing and styling, I needed career direction. Crosby helped me to determine exactly what it is I really love doing, and encouraged me to step away from the work I wasn’t excited about. She also gave me some great tips on how to grow my own social media presence and get the word out about my blog. Amazing thing have happened since we spoke, including styling Coco de Ceur’s summer look book featuring Audrey Kitching. I can’t recommend Crosby enough.” – Nacole Gray, Rich Skinny Pretty

Crosby is a PR, marketing and creative genius. In fact, I contribute my current position as a publicist at Elle Communications to PR Couture and an incredibly insightful session with Crosby as I was just graduating college. Crosby evaluated my resume, made suggestions on internships to pursue, and provided me with a list of influential blogs, websites and contacts. Moreover, Crosby’s ability to be completely candid and constructive was refreshing and necessary in pushing me toward my career path. I still consider Crosby a reliable resource and mentor – a consulting session with her is invaluable.” – Dara Bu, Publicist, Elle Communication
