Work With Me

Eight capabilities. One accountable operator.

AnaConnectsYou is the consulting practice of Desert Sun Investments LLC dba AnaConnectsYou. The capabilities below are grouped by the need a client arrives with. Each one keeps its full page, linked from its card. No pricing is published on this site; fees are set out in a written proposal for the specific engagement.

Running and improving the business

Operations in order, systems consolidated, and projects carried from written scope to documented completion.

Business OperationsFrom Business Complexity to Organized Execution.Read more

We direct business operations and defined projects the way an owner would, given another twenty hours a week: scope in writing, milestones tracked, and one accountable principal from start to finish.

  • Operations put in order: procedures, records, reporting, and a back office that stays current.
  • Operational cost audits: subscriptions, platforms, and vendor services checked line by line against billing records, with duplication and unused capacity removed and every replacement proven working before a charge is allowed to end.
  • Defined projects carried from written scope to documented completion, with coordination across vendors, teams, and deadlines.
  • Project tracking and decision records that show what is done, what is open, and who owns the next step.
  • Principal level oversight of execution, with Ana directing the work personally, and reported completions verified against the record before they are accepted.

Ana has directed business operations and projects across construction, professional services, and logistics. Engagement records are documented for every operations engagement and are available during a qualified review; client work is not published as case studies. In her own operations she has cut verified billed recurring spend by $439.59 a month through a platform migration, seat and tier consolidation, and duplicate elimination, with every function preserved.

Digital TransformationBetter Systems. Better Business Execution.Read more

We plan, build or migrate, and operate websites and business systems under your own accounts and domains, in your own brand, with the records to prove what you have and how it recovers.

  • Website planning, build or migration, and launch, with domains, content, and forms carried over and verified.
  • Business systems organized around how the business actually works, with records and access documented.
  • Systems consolidation: overlapping platforms and duplicate subscriptions identified and retired, with the surviving system documented and verified live.
  • Ongoing site operations: updates, health checks, and content kept current.
  • Continuity planning so the website, mail, and records can be restored if the worst happens.

The practice directed the migration of four business websites to modern hosting, covering requirements, release decisions, custom domain cutover, and post launch verification, and operates its own sites on that same pipeline.

Putting AI to work

AI implemented inside the tools the business already uses, and the public record those tools read from made accurate.

AI & AutomationAI That Works Inside Your Business.Read more

We implement AI inside the tools your business already uses and put it to work on intake, follow up, documents, and reporting, with a principal reviewing what matters before it counts.

  • AI assisted intake that captures, organizes, and routes every inquiry to one place.
  • Inbox triage and monitoring across the business mailboxes, with routine replies drafted for review and sent only after approval, under approval rules set in writing for the business. In the AnaConnectsYou practice, every external email is reviewed and approved by Ana before it sends; a client system is configured to the approval rules that client chooses for their own business.
  • Automated follow up and reminders that keep every open conversation moving.
  • Workflow automation inside the tools the business already uses, supervised by a principal who reviews output before it counts.

This is the system the practice itself runs on: six business mailboxes under continuous automated monitoring, scheduled reporting, and a records system that passed a full restore test with every file verified.

AI VisibilityIs AI Recommending Your Business?Read more

Buyers now ask AI search tools who to hire before they open a browser. If those tools cannot find your business, name it correctly, or describe what it actually does, the inquiry goes to a competitor the tool can describe. AI Visibility is the work of finding out what AI search says about your business today, and fixing the record it reads from. No ranking, recommendation, or placement in any AI answer is guaranteed. AI Visibility improves the accuracy and consistency of the public record those tools read from. It does not buy or promise their answers.

  • A baseline AI visibility check: recorded queries across the questions your buyers actually ask, with what appears and what does not appear stated honestly.
  • A source audit: website copy, structured data, directory listings, and public profiles checked for consistency, accuracy, and completeness.
  • Corrections prepared as previews for your approval: service descriptions, entity facts, categories, and descriptions written so a person and an AI tool read the same true record.
  • A recheck after corrections publish, reported the same honest way as the baseline.

The practice ran its own recorded baseline check in October 2026 and publishes the method and the findings honestly, including where the business does not yet appear.

Winning and proving work

Readiness for government and prime contractor buyers, claims checked against the record, and relationships carried to a documented close.

Government and Public SectorFor Agencies That Need the Work Done, and Businesses That Need to Be Ready.Read more

AnaConnectsYou works on both sides of the public sector table, kept clearly separate in every engagement. For agencies, we provide AI training and consulting sold directly to the agency. For businesses, we prepare and maintain the registrations, certification paperwork, and documentation that government and prime contractor buyers screen on, kept current by an operator who maintains her own registrations in active status.

  • Direct to agency AI training: in person training for agency staff, built around the agency work itself, taught by a career educator who holds a Master of Arts in Education.
  • Direct to agency AI consulting: workflow review, adoption sequencing, guardrails for what the system may do alone and what it must escalate, and implementation support inside a written scope.
  • Vendor registrations completed and maintained across federal, state, and local portals for business clients.
  • Certification preparation and prequalification documentation organized before deadlines arrive.
  • Capability statements built to procurement standards: entity, registrations, capabilities, and experience stated exactly as the records support.
  • Portal profiles reconciled to one correct record set, with renewals and expirations tracked.

AnaConnectsYou maintains its own registrations in active status, including SAM.gov, City of West Palm Beach SBE, and the South Florida Water Management District SBE, and cleared subcontractor prequalification with Randolph Construction Group in October 2026.

Verification and Due DiligenceCheck It Before You Commit to It.Read more

We verify the claim your decision turns on, against primary records and at least two independent sources where they exist, and we label anything that cannot be proven as unverified instead of presenting it as fact. Verification and Due Diligence is research and reporting. It is not legal advice, accounting advice, or a guarantee that a party will perform.

  • Record checks across official filings, registries, court and compliance records, published accounts, and the documents the other side provides.
  • Identity, entity, certification, and registration verification, stated with the source and the verification date.
  • Claim by claim findings: verified, contradicted, or unverified, with the evidence for each.
  • A written recommendation on whether the evidence supports proceeding, proceeding with conditions, or walking away.

This is the standard the practice applies to its own published record: every consequential claim in AnaConnectsYou materials is checked against primary records before it is stated, and anything that cannot be proven is labeled unverified.

Research & StrategyResearch That Supports Better Decisions.Read more

We research the question your decision actually turns on, check it against primary sources, and deliver findings you can act on, with the unverified parts labeled as unverified.

  • Full spectrum research across official records, primary sources, publications, and public signals.
  • Audits of businesses, partners, funders, and opportunities, checked against at least two independent sources before any conclusion is stated.
  • Findings delivered as decisions: what is verified, what is contradicted, and what is unverified, with the course of action the evidence supports and the rejections kept on the record.
  • Strategic planning that turns findings into sequenced, owned, dated next steps.

Recent work includes multi source audits of businesses and buyers, funder and grant research, and platform verification studies, each delivered with claims labeled and primary records cited.

Private AdvisoryPrivate Advisory. Direct Accountability.Read more

Some work fits no category: a custom AI system designed around one business, a confidential decision that needs an operator's outside judgment, a problem that crosses operations, technology, and relationships. Private Advisory is where that work lives, led personally by Ana and scoped in writing.

  • Custom AI solutions: purpose built workflows and knowledge systems designed around one business and its way of working.
  • Agent assisted operations with hard boundaries: what the system may do alone, what it drafts for approval, and what it never touches.
  • Confidential advisory for owners and executives, inside the written engagement.
  • Testing against real work before anything is relied on, with failures logged and corrected.

The practice designs and runs its own agent assisted operating system end to end, and converts outside research into tested internal capabilities before any of it is offered to clients.
