What types of organizations do you typically work with?
We specialize in working with non-profits, particularly those with an environmental or community focus, as well as mission-driven businesses and other community-serving individuals and initiatives.

Do you work remotely or on-site?
Most services are provided remotely, but Sam is available for on-site support depending on location and project scope. VALENTIN(E) Boutique Consulting is located in Sarasota, Florida. 

How do you price your services?
We use project-based pricing because every client has unique needs and goals. This approach allows us to tailor the scope, timeline, and deliverables to fit each project specifically, ensuring the pricing reflects the actual value and work involved. It also gives clients clarity and predictability from the start.

Do you offer one-time services or ongoing support?
Both! Whether you need help with a single campaign or ongoing consulting, we offer flexible options tailored to your goals and capacity.

What marketing services do you offer?
Services include planning, campaign development and implementation support, brand development, content creation, donor and community communications, social media management, and other writing support. Interested in something not listed? Let’s talk!

What kinds of events do you specialize in?
We focus on non-profit and community-centered events including fundraisers, festivals, and retreats. Our top priority is creating mission-focused, one-of-a-kind experiences that celebrate and uplift communities, whether that means organizing a fundraising gala that tells a powerful story, curating a festival to bring people together, or planning a retreat to foster connection and progress. Each event is designed with purpose and rooted in meaningful community engagement, aligning closely with the values and vision of the organization we’re working with.

How much are your event planning services and what is included?
Event services and pricing are tailored to the specific needs of each client and project because no two events are the same. Depending on your goals, services can include concept development, budgeting, vendor coordination, committee management, collateral design, on-site management, post-event evaluation, and more. We work closely with clients to build a package that supports their vision while ensuring a smooth, well-organized experience from start to finish.

How do you ensure events and marketing pieces align with our mission and values?
We take the time to understand your organization’s goals and community, integrating them into every aspect of planning and messaging.

Can you help with donor communications or grant writing?
Yes. We bring strong writing expertise to stakeholder messaging, newsletters, fundraising appeals, grant proposals, and more.

How early should we book your services?
The sooner the better! For events, ideally you want a 6-8 month lead time depending on the size and scope of the event. Marketing service timing depends on what you want to accomplish and when – but again, the sooner you can book the better!
