MEET CARLA & KATHRYN

We share a passion for helping small business owners, creative entrepreneurs, and content creators turn their dreams into reality.

While we’ve worked in PR, brand strategy, social media, & influencer marketing for a combined 30+ years, and for some of the most iconic brands of our time (incl. Gap, Mattel, Nest, Spindrift, Williams Sonoma Inc., to name a few), we believe that you can see growth and momentum through PR without having to invest in working with a PR agency or consultant. 

Building a business is a commitment. Each month of the year offers a timely and seasonal opportunity to proactively grow your business through PR, content, partnerships, and influencer collaborations. Our membership takes the guesswork out of what you should be prioritizing for your business as we guide you through what to focus on each month, while we continue to revisit foundational business building, PR and brand strategy topics.

Our proven Method is not a magic trick or a marketing scheme – it takes time, consistency, and dedication. But it DOES work and we’re here to teach it to you and support you every step of the way.

    — Kimberly D., founder of home goods business, Houston, TX

    — Anne B., small business owner, Houston, TX

  • “I’ve been working on growing my art business for the past few years, but when it came to PR/social media I was completely overwhelmed and kept on putting it off. Before this course, I never posted to Instagram or understood why it was so important to have my art online. I learned SO MUCH taking this course. WOW. It all started to really click with the very first lesson about audiences.”

    — Victoria W., artist & creative entrepreneur, Los Angeles, CA

  • "Since taking AYNM’s course my blog has grown significantly. It helped me to build a solid foundation for what I wanted my brand to look like. I would highly recommend this course to those looking to grow their brand. This was definitely one of the best investments I made in my business."

    — Noelani M., blogger, Kansas City, MO

  • "I recently secured a 14-page article about my textiles art business in Women Wear Create Magazine using Carla and Kathryn's PR advice. I couldn't have done it without them!"

    — Beetle Hillary, designer, New Orleans, LA

    — Kristin S., abstract artist, Atlanta, GA

  • "Carla & Kathryn are so knowledgeable & well-versed in any and all industries. Their course & 1-on-1 consultation have played a significant role in helping me create a strategy for promoting my art business.

    — CoCo Z., fine artist, Austin, TX

    — Alex Y., interior designer, Los Angeles, CA

  • "I've already started the course and had to peel myself away to get some sleep last night!! I am confident this exercise will be one that leads to clarity and manifestation! The exercises and reflection questions are already giving me clarity on how to tell the story of the brand and helping me move from reflection to description to create a bridge between the brand and my target audience, all while intertwining the pieces that make Hotze Health Collective unique. ”

    — Kathleen H., Holistic Health Practitioner, Houston, TX

  • “All You Need Method has helped me as a small business owner; it has given me clarity on where to focus, helped me see my business in a new light and has given me a direction on next steps. It has also helped me understand industry standards and industry speak when it comes to PR.”
