“It was a masterclass in self-advocacy and executive influence.”
Anne-Marie, skip-level VP promotion
“I don't even need to think about this. I want to move you to the next level.”
Said to Jasmine 15 minutes into an internal interview, after our work together
The problem you already know

Your value is real. The people who decide cannot read it.

You have been called a high performer for years, and your scope has not moved.
You cannot say what makes you different without sounding like everyone else with your title.
Every time you change roles, you rebuild your case from scratch.

This is not a performance problem. It is an interpretation problem — and it is the only thing this program works on.

What Stand Out Advantage is

Positioning for how you are read.

You are already good at the work. This is built for go-to-market and presales professionals specifically, by someone who led those teams for 25 years and sat in the rooms where the decisions got made.

Career coaching works on your choices.
This works on how others read your value.
Skills training makes you better at the job.
This makes you the one they can describe.
Personal branding makes you louder.
This makes your value travel without you.
See it in action

What this sounds like in practice.

The four modules

Direction, translation, application, compounding.

01
Define your edge
From what you do to what you want to be known for
You find the pattern in your own track record and name the one thing you are the one to pick for, in a single clear line that does not sound like your title.
You leave withYour positioning line, in your words.
02
Build your presence
From telling your story to letting it travel
You make that line portable, so the people who decide carry it into the rooms you are not in, instead of you having to be present for it to land.
You leave withA profile, bio, and story that carry the line for you.
03
Master your moments
From preparing for the moment to converting it
You turn the high-stakes conversations, the reviews, the interviews, the pitch rooms, into moments where your value comes through instead of getting lost.
You leave withTalk tracks for the conversations that decide things.
04
Lead your growth
From working a role to building a career
You stop rebuilding from scratch with every move and start compounding, so each step makes the next one easier.
You leave withA plan that keeps working after the cohort ends.

14-day complete-the-work guarantee. Details below.

How it works

Four months, built around a working role.

  • Four modules over four months
  • Eight Stand Out Plays, the exercises that produce your actual positioning materials
  • Eight live group sessions across the four months
  • Community access alongside a cohort moving through the work with you
  • Lifetime access to the materials
"Night and day from our first conversation several months ago."
The hiring manager who first passed on Brandon, a sales engineer

The program starts the week of September 14, with a planned integration break from October 7 to 19, resuming October 20. The live calls are where the coaching happens, and every one is recorded, so if you cannot make one, you can watch the replay.

Before you go further

This works for a specific person.

This is for you if

  • You are senior in go-to-market, presales, or an adjacent technical function.
  • Your work is strong and your scope has not moved to match it.
  • You are ready to be specific about what you want to be known for.
  • You will do the Plays, not just attend the calls.

This is not for you if

  • You want interview coaching or a resume rewrite alone.
  • You are looking for skills training in the job itself.
  • You want someone to hand you a script you never adapt.
  • You cannot give it a few hours a month for four months.
"I couldn't believe this story was about me."
Katie, a solutions engineer, rebuilding her narrative
Proof

The work was never the issue. The reading of it was.

Sierra
Promoted to engineering manager within weeks

Sierra got handed the hard problems, the complex builds most of her peers would route around. She delivered every time. And every year, the same feedback: you need more experience with complex work. She had done that work repeatedly. The review did not reflect it.

She made difficult work look effortless and was uncomfortable claiming credit, so the value never registered with the people deciding what she was ready for next. Through the program she found the pattern in her own track record and got clear enough on her edge to claim it plainly. The manager role opened through someone who already knew her work and her goal. Her reputation was already in the room.

Brandon
Agency owner → senior solutions engineer

Eighteen years running his own agency, then a move in-house into a Solutions Engineer role. The hard part was never whether he could do the work. To a hiring team, agency owner and Solutions Engineer read as two different worlds. The value was all there. The sentence connecting it to the role was not.

"She helped me craft a compelling story that connected my background to the role I wanted, and transformed my resume into something that truly reflected my value. I wouldn't have landed my solutions engineering role without her."

Heather
Senior communications executive · landed an aligned role in five months

Heather had joined an organization that was not aligned with her skills or values, and after a subpar review the read on her there had gone sideways. Most people change companies and carry the old read with them, because the company was never the thing that was broken. She refocused on her skills and values, changed the story she led with, and found her next opportunity within five months.

"She reminded me of who I am, what I'm good at, and pushed me to remain confident in my abilities in the face of adversity. The coaching she offers is a great mix of supportive, practical and results oriented."

Tricia
Solution engineer · from wide and unfocused to known for one thing

Tricia could do a lot of things well, so she kept chasing roles by skill set rather than by what she wanted to be known for. What changed was not her experience. It was the decision to stop describing what she could do and start defining what she wanted to be known for.

"I've learned to focus on my next role based on what I want to do, versus roles that I see are open. I would highly recommend Laurie."

"It was a masterclass in self-advocacy and executive influence, at a moment when timing mattered."
Anne-Marie, skip-level VP promotion
"I used everything you taught me, and got promoted immediately."
Jasmine, promoted after one session
"She helped me with ways to deal with burnout, and to get clear on what I'm looking for next and how to position myself."
Beth, director, campaign operations
"Without Laurie's expert coaching, I would never have gained the insight, skills, or confidence to land my dream job."
Catherine, paralegal at a top law firm

Questions

Before you decide.

How is this different from career coaching?
Career coaching usually works on your choices and your actions. This works one level deeper, on how your value is read by the people who decide your next move. It changes what others understand about you, not just how you behave, and it is built for go-to-market and presales professionals specifically.
I am not job hunting. Is this still for me?
Yes. The work applies whether you are moving up where you are or moving somewhere new. The point is that the people who decide can describe your value clearly, which matters inside your current company as much as outside it.
How much time does it take?
Four modules over four months, eight live group sessions, and the Stand Out Plays between them. It is built to fit around a working role, not to compete with it.
What if I cannot make a live session?
The live calls are where the coaching happens, so come when you can. Every one is recorded, so if you have to miss a call you can watch the replay and stay with the work.
Is there a payment plan?
Yes. Pay $2,497 in full, or choose two payments of $1,349, charged 30 days apart. The 1:1 Strategy Track add-on is paid in full and is not part of the plan.
What is the difference between the program and the 1:1 Strategy Track?
The program is the full curriculum, the Plays, and the group sessions. The 1:1 Strategy Track is an add-on, four private sessions on your actual materials. Add it at checkout or in your first 30 days.
Can my company pay for this?
Yes, and many do. Ask for an invoice at checkout or reply to any email and you will get one you can submit for professional development budget.
What if I am still not sure?
Take the two-minute read assessment first. It shows you exactly where your value is getting misread, and it will tell you quickly whether this is the work you need. Start there.

Be the one they can describe.
