If you’re running a small business, relying on referrals or word of mouth, and finding it hard to attract new clients, this day is for you.

You’ll spend a relaxed but focused day working on your brand, marketing and visibility. No jargon. No fluff. Just practical support, expert guidance and the space to get it done.

This isn’t a sit-back-and-listen kind of event – we’ll be working together to help you take real action.

Throughout the day, you’ll have time and space to focus on your business, with expert support and practical exercises to guide you. You’ll leave with more confidence, a clearer message, and a simple plan to help you attract more of the right clients.

Here’s what we’ll cover:

How to make your business stand out and connect with the right people

What to say (and where to say it) to bring in more leads

Choosing the best marketing tools for you, without overcomplicating things

How to simplify content creation so you’re never stuck for what to post

Tips for using photos and video to build trust with your audience

Bringing it all together into a simple plan you can start implementing straight away.

You’ll also have time for networking, headshots, reflection and personalised support.

WHAT’S INCLUDED:

A full day of focused, practical support in a relaxed, friendly environment

Professional brand headshots to use in your marketing

A strategy workbook – this is your personalised marketing plan in the making. You’ll build it throughout the day and take it away ready to implement

A delicious two-course lunch, refreshments, and snacks to keep you fuelled
