there is nobody better. Tessa is motivated, extremely talented, and uniquely focused on doing a better job than you could ever hope for. I feel safe in her expert hands.
Andrew Steelsmith
Don't hire Tessa! You can't have her. After a very intense year of working with Tessa I can tell you she is second to none. Her deep technical knowledge, astounding work ethic and unbridled optimism are just a few reasons why our company has nearly doubled in size in just 11 months. Thrown into a chaotic startup environment, Tessa has been rock solid and helped to provide a level of service and organization that continually amazes me. Without her hard work and personality, Steelsmith Group simply wouldn't be where it's at now. You've been warned.

We help people build out their Sales + Marketing Funnel and create an audience that's ready to buy and happy to pay. The fact is you weren’t born a CEO, but you can become one. Every successful CEO has a strategy, systems and support - but most entrepreneurs try to do it alone. The Move to CEO is a place where you can collaborate with others, know exactly what to do to grow your business and get coaching support without having to get a second mortgage.
