It’s time to get your great idea off the ground
Go-to-Market Strategy
Marketing Consulting
1:1 Startup Advising
Can’t get started or feeling stuck?
Many creative entrepreneurs have great ideas, but lack the business experience to bring them to life—and to the people ready to pay for them.
That’s where my startup and small business consulting and advising comes in.
Expert Go-to-Market guidance and advice
Backed by 30 years of diverse, real-world experience.
The term “Go-to-Market”, abbreviated as GTM, is a fancy term for launching a business.
I’ve created a simple and effective framework for launching new ventures or programs. It was made specifically for visionary entrepreneurs without traditional business experience.
I am drawn to anyone working on connecting people and disrupting the status quo.
I work with artists, creatives, educators, engineers, healers, philanthropists. My down to earth, straight forward approach works well for them.
Don’t let confusion or indecision hold you back. My targeted consulting and advising will get you unstuck so you can bring your ideas to life and make money.
We’ll do it without complicated structures or corporate jargon.

Frequently Asked Questions
I help visionary people bring their ideas to market.
My name is Stefanie Smith.
I am the Founder of Double S Consulting.
I spent 30 years developing corporate strategy, marketing campaigns, sales forecasts, logistics, operations processes, and more.
Sometime in 2018, I started to informally help my artist and healer friends organize and launch their new business ideas. A realization set in: No one is supporting visionaries like these.
So I created Double S Consulting to fill a hole in the market for strategic services available to creative entrepreneurs and startups.
So many intelligent and inspiring individuals have world-changing ideas. But, without the traditional business expertise needed to successfully launch them, their best concepts are stuck on paper.
The world needs EVERYONE’s big idea. I know you have one. I can’t wait to help you launch it.
