Better Business
It's in the service...
As human beings, it is in our blood to be of service to others. We at Chic Total Business Services know that outstanding service is what sets every small business apart from "the big guys". Whether it's assisting with writing a business plan, building a website that truly represents your brand, providing top-notch public relations, writing a new software program or editing a screenplay — it's about service. As a small business, consultant, non-profit agency or artist, you pride yourself on giving your very best. And to make it better, your service is driven by passion and by a desire to succeed. We at Chic are here to help. Why? Because for us — it's all in the service.
Client Quotes
Our Business Services
Chrissie is amazingly efficient and extremely organized. I can send her an email or leave her a phone message and she usually gets back to me in the same day, often within an hour or two. I appreciate that she keeps phone tag to a minimum.

Bookkeeping & Accounting
As small business people ourselves, we know that the last thing you want to do at the end of the day is your books. Quickbooks® has certainly made it easier to keep track of business income and expenses, but do you really want to sit there and plug in the information when you're tired, when your time could be better spent finishing a project, or when you could be networking with like-minded folks who will lead you to more business? We at Chic Total Business Services understand your pain and are here to offer our staff to handle your bookkeeping at reasonable rates. We're quick, organized, and best-of-all, trained in many types of business accounting. We are seasoned professionals who will not just plug in your numbers; we will offer you insightful comments based in real business experience on how to cut expenses, run more efficiently and fatten up your bottom line. Our success speaks for itself and we are happy to offer references for our work.

Publicity
So now you have a wonderful product; a novel, paintings, sculptures, a product to sell, a program to push — something that just has to be shared with the public. We at Chic Total Business Services know from experience how intimidating it can be to go out and talk yourself up — to blow your own horn. You're an artist or a business person and we know you'd prefer to be spending your time making art in whatever form you've chosen, or busy producing the product you need to sell. But you're also serious about making money and you need your brand to become a household name. Chic Total Business Services is proud to have an on-staff publicist who knows how to get you noticed. We've done it for many others — so why not you?

Copywriting & Editing
It can be tough to find the right words to describe exactly what you're trying to say, what service it is you're really providing, or the most concise content for your website or marketing materials. Maybe it's a difficult letter you’re trying to write to a vendor or customer you really don't want to lose. We at Chic Total Business Services are here to help and will keep at it until you're happy right down to the last apostrophe, comma, and period. Your next book proposal, query letter, or business plan is in the right hands.
Copywriting, Editing & Grant Writing
Grant Writing
These days it is tougher than ever to find funding and we at Chic know how challenging it can be to acquire a grant writer. We are willing to give you references to a handful of our successful grant writers. And if you'd like to try your hand at grant writing and need guidance, we'll be happy to walk you through the process. We are here to give you clear instruction, introduce you to helpful sites, and even network you with other grant writers if we don't have the right one for you.
