Why Our Clients Trust Us:
“Proud Empowerment Business Solutions has been a godsend for the communication department at CenterLink, the association of LGBTQ+ centers. If you have any reason to doubt that bringing in Mandi and their team to do the work with you, partnering with you - DON’T. They helped us elevate our social media, email, website, marketing campaigns and more!“
Donna Solomon-Carter - CenterLink
“ Mandi and her team are creative, resourceful, and thoughtful. I took away both resources and tools I can use moving forward. Her knowledge of equity and social justice issues meant we were able to focus on immediate needs rather than on background content. “
Dr. Naya Jones - University Professor
LGBTQ+ and Social Justice Focus
“We've been working together for almost 5 years now! They understand what we do, what we need, and most importantly deliver it on time and professionally. I highly recommend that if you need help with high level marketing strategy or social media, graphic design, ads, email marketing, storytelling or copywriting, give Mandi a call! They also help us with our human resouces recruiting efforts. They are part of the family now“
Chris Bryan, Persad LGBTQ Center
“Mandi and their team are highly skilled, adaptable, detail-oriented, and take initiative in their work. I recommend them without any reservations!”
Kush Desai - Licensed Therapist
“Mandi and their team exceeded my expectations. I interviewed many Freelancers. I was becoming concerned I would not find someone that would fit my needs and then I found Mandi. A perfect fit. They helped with campaign launches, email marketing, video editing, copywriting, one-page sheets, course creation, funnels & more! I highly recommend them.”
J. Latz - Licensed Speech Therapist
"I wish everyone could have the opportunity to sit with Mandi and the team at Proud Empowerment! We had such an eye opening SparkleSesh™ with actionable next steps. If you're looking to gain clarity, insight and creativity from super knowledgeable, kind and warm souls. This is where you should be for your business."
Corinne Pecile - Twisted Willow Wellness
"I just finished my Sparklesesh™. It left me with a lot of clarity. It's such a relief to work with queer neurospicy folks. The generic neurotypical business pointers I get elsewhere always leave me feeling overwhelmed and blocked. I think I might finally resolve my email marketing issues once and for all."
Dalia Kinsey - Kinsey Wellness
Marketing Shouldn’t Feel Gross, Lonely, or Impossible.
When I first tried to build my business online, I felt stuck. Despite 20+ years of experience in design and marketing, I couldn’t find an approach that worked for me—for my brain.
Every marketing program I came across was either too expensive, too impersonal, or made me feel… icky. The sales tactics felt pushy. The strategies felt disconnected. And worst of all? I was alone in the process.
I wanted a place for real expert help. A space without pressure, fluff, or high costs. A place where I could ask questions and actually get answers. A community that welcomed people like me.
So, I built it.
