About the Coach - Collette Portis - Collette Portis & Co. LLC

My purpose is to contribute to the cultivation of a community of amazingly individuals who appreciate collaboration, growth, & legacy. - Collette Portis, M.Ed., B.F.S.

Collette Portis & Co. LLC was founded in April 2015. After witnessing the success and failures of the many entrepreneurs in her family and her experience creating growth in corporate America, small businesses, and non-profits, Collette began to realize that her family's story and her experience needed to be shared. So, she began to write. After completing her first manuscript, she was faced with the challenge of finding a publisher that would allow her to maintain the majority of the money made from her books, find her an editor that wouldn't charge her large sums of money and help her understand what more she could do as an author with her work besides writing it and waiting for someone to purchase it.
After much research and interviewing many publishers, Collette set out to self publish her works. Along the way, she discovered that there were some things missing in the market such as help for independent/self-published authors and understand how to build a business and a brand around their literary works. Ms. Portis then took the skills she used as a Master Business Coach & Strategist and built Collette Portis & Co. LLC as a place where independent author's could come to get the support needed to complete their manuscript, publish their books, and brand their work. Now the Collette Portis & Co. team is helping regular people share their story and skills with the world while leaving an imprint that will exceed their lifetime.
Collette has an extensive educational background having earned her Bachelors in Business Management, Masters in Adult Education, and completing her Doctorate in Transformational Leadership. She is the author of

G.O.A.L.I.E.: Grafting Objectives Around Longevity in Entrepreneurship
G.O.A.L.I.E. Tactical Planner, and
Go for the GOAL: Goal Setting Guide

All of which are tools that she employees to help her authors expand and achieve the goals they have set for themselves.
