Her agency, Coverdale Consulting, has grown from a solo venture to a thriving team, consistently exceeding client expectations and garnering industry recognition.
A 2023 Indiana Business Journal Forty Under 40 honoree, Coverdale has demonstrated a remarkable ability to create a successful business from the ground up. Her agency specializes in public relations, digital advertising, email campaigns, messaging, branding, and design.
Coverdale’s unique approach to marketing is rooted in her belief that true success lies in forming deep connections with clients and understanding their unique needs. By building strong relationships and developing tailored strategies, she can deliver measurable results.
Coverdale’s journey to founding Coverdale Consulting was not without its challenges. As a solo entrepreneur in the early days, she faced the daunting task of wearing multiple hats while juggling the demands of running a business. Resilience was instrumental in overcoming these obstacles. She sought out mentors and joined networking groups to connect with other entrepreneurs and gain valuable insights.
Coverdale’s leadership style is characterized by her passion for fostering a positive company culture. She believes in creating an environment where employees feel valued, supported, and encouraged to take risks. “I’m very passionate about empowering and mentoring other women,” Coverdale says. “Coaching is a huge part of being successful, and having a big support system of women who are in business, who have been there and know what you’re going through, makes a difference.”
Coverdale’s commitment to mentorship has helped her develop a talented and dedicated team. She encourages her employees to take on new challenges, learn new skills and pursue their professional goals. This approach has not only led to a more engaged and productive workforce, but has also contributed to Coverdale Consulting’s success.
Beyond her professional accomplishments, Coverdale is actively involved in the community. She is a board member for Nickel Plate Arts and a past board member for Brooke’s Place and the Hamilton County Leadership Academy. Her commitment to giving back is evident in her dedication to empowering young people and fostering a thriving local arts scene.
Coverdale’s community involvement is driven by a desire to make a positive impact on her city. “I believe it is important to give back in the community in which you work and live,” Coverdale says.
The journey from a solo entrepreneur to a leading figure in the local marketing landscape is a testament to Coverdale’s entrepreneurial spirit and dedication. Her ability to build a thriving agency, foster a positive company culture and make a meaningful impact on the community is a shining example of what can be achieved with hard work, passion and a commitment to excellence.
And, as she says, “just be nice.”
