Amanda Woolley

Amanda Woolley is a Washington, DC–based marketing consultant with a passion for local business. She brings a down-to-earth, results-focused approach and years of international experience across small and large businesses.

Her approach is customer-centric, built around the experiences that drive new, repeat, and referral business. She works with owners to achieve their growth goals while simplifying operations and minimizing risk. Her local focus allows her to provide in-person support, helping clients execute initiatives quickly and navigate challenges as they arise.

Over a decade of small-business ownership has taught Amanda what it takes to build from zero. For more than ten years, she has operated small businesses in the United States and Brazil, handling client acquisition and retention, service delivery, financial management, and strategic decision-making.

Client-facing roles at two leading Brazilian companies taught her the importance of high-stakes customer experience. At Grupo Votorantim and Patria Investimentos—the country's leading private equity firm and local Blackstone affiliate—she coordinated interactions with investors and international executives visiting the firm. Success in these roles demanded an ability to develop plans that withstand the unpredictability of daily operations, solve problems on the fly, and deliver excellence to people who accept nothing less.

Amanda earned her BSBA in Marketing from Pontifical Catholic University of Paraná, a leading Brazilian university, graduating near the top of her class.
