Meet Clare

Hi, I’m Clare Troutman — a lifelong creative and small-business cheerleader.

With my kids grown and chasing their own adventures, I now focus on mentoring business owners, building creative projects, and giving back to my community.

See what's brewing.

I used to dread anything that sounded like ‘marketing.’ Clare made it feel like a coffee chat with a friend who just happens to know her stuff. She translated business strategy into plain English — and suddenly, I’m showing up online like a pro.
