Roxanne Allaire

Roxanne Allaire is a Business Development Coach and President at Roxx Consulting Service Inc.  She is best described as a "forward-doer"; someone who is not afraid to try new ideas, but not to the detriment of research, analysis and strategy first.

At Roxx Consulting, Roxanne began with a focus on leadership development and over time expanded her knowledge to include brand positioning, online marketing strategy, and sales process design.  Although she has worked with a broad range of clients to include  finance and professional services, she is most passionate about the high technology industry and advancing the technical sale.

Roxanne is always on the look out for new strategies and tools to help business owners and executives grow their brand and presence online.  Online marketing has become the ultimate marketing strategy (and business plan!), attracting prospects and loyal customers for those who take its implementation seriously.  She aims to fill an unmet need by helping to establish an online presence and community for small-medium high tech clients and their customers. She especially enjoys helping start up technology companies attract investors or get started implementing a powerful web presence.

Roxanne's goal is to become a recognized authority on marketing high technology in our new economy marketplace through producing books, blogs and white papers that serve as practical guides for building online leadership quickly and sincerely, while attracting the eyes of investors, customers, buyers and talent.  

When she's not coaching or consulting, Roxanne is usually reading a leadership or nutrition book, helping her 17-year-old daughter navigate life's opportunities, or practicing fitness in the areas of yoga, running and resistance training.
