Business Alchemist
Hi, I’m Julianna.
Are you a business owner who doesn’t feel like you check the “traditional boxes”? Me too!
I launched Silva Strategies because I love empowering and coaching people just like you to learn how to use simple work flows to make magic (and money!) in your business.
I have launched and grown several successful businesses including retail, graphic & web design, bookkeeping and marketing. I know what it feels like to try and figure out all the things that need to happen to build a thriving business.
My mission is to share my knowledge, the tools I developed and the mindset shifts that I know can help your business thrive. And, I know how to do that it in a safe, supported and kind way.
I can help you save money, gain confidence in understanding your numbers and finances to help you make better business decisions. I am super passionate about what I do and I know first-hand the power of good bookkeeping and financial strategy. The thriving furniture studio that my partner and I have operated for over 25 years is testament to that!
My clients always share that I help them feel at ease and more confident about their finances. They have told me that the work we do together helps them sleep better at night and feel empowered to make the right decisions for their business. Read more about what my clients are saying.
I know that when you work with me and my team, you will experience the same sense of calm, comfort and confidence that our clients have. Reach out today to schedule a Discovery Call to see how we can help you gain confidence in your business finances.
