🌱 Homegrown · A head-start program for new local businesses · Soddy-Daisy & Chattanooga, TN
Homegrown is a little program I run for a few brand-new local trade & service folks — I get you the whole professional setup: a website, showing up on Google, a Facebook page, your first ad, and me in your corner on the business side. In trade for one project in your line of work.
Apply nowOnly a couple spots. I pick folks myself.
I'm Cindi Sanden. My husband Nate and I run Sanden Solutions — a little marketing-and-websites shop right here in the Soddy-Daisy / Chattanooga area. I've been in marketing 20+ years and around the local small-business world a long time, and honestly, helping somebody who just took the leap get on their feet is my favorite part of the job. Homegrown is me pointing all that at your business.
All of it done for you — not handed to you as homework.
Built, written, and launched for your trade. Works great on phones and easy for folks to reach you. ($2,500–$4,000)
Set up so you turn up in local "near me" searches and can start collecting reviews. ($500–$800)
Set up, branded, and ready to post. ($350–$500)
Colors and a style that make you look established. ($500–$1,000)
Built, aimed at your local area, and launched together. ($750+ to set up)
Pricing & quoting, asking for reviews, following up, getting referrals — the stuff nobody hands you a manual for. ($150–$250/hr)
Bring me your real questions as they come up. (hard to put a price on)
A vote of confidence from somebody who's been doing this a long time, and folks I can point your way. (goes a long way)
All told, that's $6,000–$9,000+ of work
Plus the part that isn't on the list: walking into your market already looking like the pro you're working to be.
Here's the honest half of the trade: instead of paying in cash, you pay in the thing you're good at.
You do a project (or a few smaller ones) in your trade at our home here in the Soddy-Daisy area — whatever your specialty is.
Think of it as the proof you can do the job — and while you're doing it, I'm building everything else on the business side.
The quick form below — about five minutes.
I choose folks personally.
Map your brand and figure out the project together.
I build your setup while you do the project — same time.
Everything launches and I stick around to help.
You give a day or two of the work you already know how to do. You walk away with a real business setup and somebody who's done this a hundred times helping you not stumble. It's not a discount and it's not charity — it's a head start most folks never get offered.
Tell me a little about your business and why you want in. I only take a few, and I pick them myself.
I read every one of these myself. If it's a good fit for Homegrown, I'll reach out soon. Keep doing great work in the meantime.
