Channeling Contessa was founded in January 2011 as a way for me (Clara) to stay creative outside my day job. It has since grown into a go to resource for recipes, entertaining, inspired living, guidance on how to start your own business, and more for tens of thousands of readers each month. My work has been featured in Ladies’ Home Journal, on the Huffington Post, the Glitter Guide, and The Everygirl, and lovingly mentioned on Saveur. Outside of CC I run my own boutique consulting agency, Clara Persis, which specializes in helping brands form sincere and influential connections with their audiences through brand development, social and digital media strategy, events, and content creation.

I partner with businesses, brands, and organizations in a variety of ways:
- Sponsored Content I’m delighted to partner with products and brands that align with the overall mission and content of CC through sponsored posts, giveaways, and more. Please contact me for further information and to receive a media kit.
- Content Creation As a lifestyle and food blogger, I not only create original content for my blog, but also for other websites, magazines, and print media. I specialize in original recipes, lifestyle and cooking tips, guidance on how to start working for yourself, and much more.
- Social Media Strategy As a seasoned blogger and social media expert I work with both individuals and organizations to educate them on the nuances of social media marketing, help create their social media identity, and develop their social media strategy.
- Appearances I’m available for hosting and speaking at conferences events. My content areas include blogging, social media strategy, seasonal cooking and entertaining, building a personal brand, and more.
