We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Erin Lyman. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Erin below.
Erin, thanks for taking the time to share your stories with us today Can you share a customer success story with us?
I work with rising high school seniors on their college application essays. We start by brainstorming a topic. There was one student in particular that said he had nothing to write about. He said nothing interesting has happened to him, he hasn’t traveled extensively, and he didn’t have anything to say. After going through my brainstorming process, we uncovered an incredible story. His story. This student had an amazing story to tell. This student ended up receiving multiple college acceptances and scholarship money. It was a wonderful experience working with him.
Awesome – so before we get into the rest of our questions, can you briefly introduce yourself to our readers.
I provide coaching services for students. I work with students on their college application essays from the brainstorming phase, all the way to the final red line edit. I also provide interview prep and resume writing.
Have you ever had to pivot?
When I started my business, I was editing everything from websites to real estate brochures. After a while, I realized that I needed to stick with my expertise–resumes, cover letters, and essays. I have been able to really focus on those areas and strengthen my skillset.
What do you think helped you build your reputation within your market?
My business is almost completely driven by client referrals. I build strong relationships with my clients and truly care about their success. I appreciate them referring me to those that they care about.
