Our goal is to give you the blueprint you need to build sustainable structures that protect your purpose, your people, and the pursuit of the life you want.


RESULTS WE ARE PROUD OF 

Working with Nikki has been monumental in building the structure of my business. Making pivots in your business structure can be scary and vulnerable, but she came alongside me and helped me build out really solid tools and resources which are giving me the confidence to launch this new idea. She took what to me was a brain dump, and pieced all of it together in a cohesive framework. I feel really empowered to take this next step in business after our session. 

– Jillian Dolberry, 90 Minute Session

It is so important to put the foundation together, even if your business is already successful. Getting back to your "why" is even more important once you've scaled. Nikki was so thoughtful in her plan and went step by step to help me get a better understanding of my business and what was missing! I am so grateful that she listened to all the good, bad and ugly and was supportive throughout the whole process.

– Meridith McCarty, Strategy Sprint

I feel that you see me and understand my business and the goals that I have for it all. That day we spent reevaluating, reassessing and reboting my mindset was invaluable to me. My mind was reeling and you were not only able to pivot form what you had planned for the meeting, but you knew exactly what I needed in that moment. And you DELIVERED your ALL!

– Cindy Jakubiec, Premier Consulting


FOUNDED FOR YOUR FREEDOM

The After Co. is a future-focused strategy studio for creative businesses and multi-six figure service providers.

Our founder Nikki Vance began The After Co. for a simple reason. She wants people to have better businesses and better lives. And she wants it for everyone involved. Not just the CEO. Not just the stakeholders. 

Every founder, executive, employee, team member, contractor, and client deserves to have a life of AND. Where they don’t have to choose between work or life, business or family, money or integrity, opportunity or contentment. 

Our new generation of emerging million-dollar companies has the power to change the story. To reintegrate integrity, loyalty, and respect into the heart of profitable business culture. To make people our purpose again. 

It’s going to take a massive effort to get there. This is our part:

Helping profitable creatives like you run more sustainable businesses by creating structure that supports your success today, tomorrow, and hereafter. So your family, your team, and your clients can stop settling for OR, and start living for AND.
