My story goes like this...

In the beginning was a happy family that hardly lacked anything till the tables turned and caused everything to come tumbling down.

The father left to seek greener pastures so that he could return to support his family, only never to return again.

Meanwhile, the mother, who had no particular source of income, struggled to put food on the table for the four children not to mention the challenges she faced to also put roof over their head.

But in all these, the children never lost sight of their dreams and further sort out opportunities to make their lives better because their parents had always told them that they can achieve whatever they set their minds to, with determination and courage, and as long as they believe in themselves.

So with determination, persistence and courage, the children went with the flow and enjoyed all the adventures life presented to them.

The results, a worthy and happy outcome that they are still cherishing as a result of standing for what they value and believe in and never giving up despite all the odds.

One of these children is me, Marjorie Janczak, the first of four children who's parents lost all their wealth and had to struggle through life in various parts of the world.

Throughout my travels, I discovered that no matter where you go or who you interact with, people already put you in a box or better still brand you even before you can say Jack.

This discovery set me on a quest to find ways to polish my image and brand even more so that I can achieve the success I dream of.

Having been raised by parents who served in the diplomatic service for Ghana in various countries, knowing how to behave in certain environments was not an issue, however, ensuring that I became known for what I want to be known for, was the challenge I needed to tackle.

Successfully combating this challenge arose my passion to help other minority forward-thinking professionals, women and small business owners who are struggling to get themselves out of that 'box' they have been put in.

This has resulted in me evolving from the Etiquette Diva to your Premier Minority Brand Strategist and Preferred Lifestyle Ambassador helping independent service professionals - with specialty in the minority - to get profitably branded by captivating, convincing and converting their ideal prospects into paying clients so that they can bank their brilliance and live their preferred lifestyle.

Personally, I hold a post-graduate degree in communications, I am also a certified etiquette expert and an author to a soon to be launched Social Media Etiquette Book.

When I am not helping women and minority small business owners to get profitably branded, I lead a not for profit organization - The African Group of Evolving Minds (A-GEMs) - as their president to help forward thinking Africans to harness their unique abilities for sustainable abundance that fulfills their wants and needs for a better quality life while helping in the developmental efforts of the African continent.
