creative strategy?

every small business deserves a creative director

but not every 
small business owner can afford one

That’s where I come in. I help entrepreneurs, solopreneurs, and business owners align their brand identity, social media, and strategy in a sustainable way—so you can confidently manage your creative operations without the agency price tag.

when we work together

It’s not just about doing the work for you — it’s doing it with you. You decide how involved you want to be.

 

Some clients hand me the reins, others roll up their sleeves. Either way, our process is collaborative and rooted in the “why” behind every decision.

From styling a sponsor table to planning a reel shot list, from DIYing a product photo setup to mapping out a week of content in Canva, you’ll see not only what I’m doing, but how it’s done.

The result? You don’t just walk away with a polished, professional setup — whether that’s a pop-up booth or a content calendar — you also leave with the insight and skills to think sustainably and strategically about your own business.

Your Creative Director, Annalyce D'Agostino-Gavin

Entrepreneur

I know what it’s like to wear all the hats. As the founder of Focus Posters, I’ve built a business from the ground up—balancing creativity, strategy, marketing, and everything in between. That journey taught me how overwhelming the creative side of entrepreneurship can feel, especially when resources are limited. My goal is to make branding and content creation approachable, sustainable, and empowering for other small business owners like you.

Educator, Designer, Mentor

Alongside running my own business, I serve as Creative Development and Innovation Strategist at Montclair State University’s Feliciano Center for Entrepreneurship & Innovation. I teach entrepreneurs and student founders how to strengthen their brand, elevate content creation, and build strategies that work. I also manage the Center’s digital presence—designing graphics, creating posts, and running social media that highlights our programs and celebrates our community.

Video Producer

Before stepping fully into entrepreneurship, I spent my early career working in video production and media. From commercials to on-camera work, I saw firsthand how powerful storytelling and visuals are in capturing attention and building connection. Now, I bring that experience to small businesses—helping owners not only use visuals and content strategically, but also coaching founders who may feel camera-shy to step confidently in front of the lens and share their story with impact.

"When I first connected with Annalyce, I was in a place where my messaging didn’t feel clear and my confidence around marketing myself was low. She showed up with such attentiveness and strategy, helping me think about how to position my business in a way that felt authentic and impactful. What I appreciated most was how she listened and offered insights that stretched my perspective without overwhelming me. Since then, my business has naturally shifted and begun to flow with more clarity, and I can see how those early conversations helped me plant seeds of confidence in my voice. Annalyce left me feeling supported, encouraged, and equipped to step forward with more direction. She’s a thoughtful strategist who knows how to meet you exactly where you are."
