Help Michelle Grow

Hi, my name is Michelle Crisanti and I am a recovering serial entrepreneur. For many years I have been working on creating not only my own online business(es), but also helping other people create websites, content (both written & visual), pitch decks, online courses, blogs, ads...you name it. I am proud of what I have been able to learn and create, and it is truly what I LOVE to do.

Most of my skills have been gained out of pure necessity using my entrepreneurial "can do" spirit. My motto is "I'll figure it out." I am diligent, determined, and I love learning as well as creating new things for myself and for others. This has gotten me by pretty well for quite some time, however, truth be told...even though I have many valuable abilities, I keep ending up overcommitted to helping others, for way less than my talents should be worth, in part because I know that I lack a few key pieces of the puzzle that would allow me to apply for more financially rewarding work. I have helped people start their own businesses with the promise of rewards "once things get going," more times than I'd like to admit. I have my own pages and products that never seem to go anywhere also because of those key missing pieces.

Now that I have admitted my deepest, darkest secret...that I am not a thriving social media influencer, 6+ figure business creator, world traveling, spiritual entrepreneur with the ability to manifest diamonds and Ferrari's in the blink of an eye, (I actually had to look up how to spell Ferrari ;) ) I humbly ask that you consider my request. I need some help so that I may go back to school and take a 10 week course that will give me the training and certification that I need to be able to apply for jobs that will actually pay me what these skills are worth.

The class is being offered remotely through UofO. It is a 10 week Digital Marketing Science Certification course. Tuition is $2500. I am at a point where I have no way to afford it on my own, and in some ways I'm pretty sure that the Universe is pushing me to stop being afraid to ask for help...so...here goes. I am seeking to raise $3k to cover GFM fees and have a little buffer in case I need to purchase some software or programs. Here is the link for it if you would like to know more about what you are supporting: https://training.cpe.uoregon.edu/dms-syllabus/

You can count on me to follow through on making the most of this opportunity. Your help will not only help me, but also allow me to better help the communities and companies that I serve with my skills. I hope you also understand that I am also here for you.

Thank you for your consideration. I appreciate any and ALL help towards this goal.

Sincerely,

Michelle Crisanti
