Once you book your discovery call, you will be sent a pre-mentoring questionnaire to fill in and return. Kirstie will then go through your tailored strategies with your key areas to complete. We will also discuss what length on mentorship is in your best interest, whether it's a set accelerator length or a rolling monthly basis, but ultimately it is your choice.
We will kick start your programme by having a private consultation, learning about your specific needs, setting goals and targets and giving you the direction you need.

Personalised Marketing and Sales System
Through our mentoring meetings, we will give you a 100% peronalised roadmap for your Marketing and sales system. If you choose the monthly rolling mentorship, you will receive a set of 4 workbooks we will complete together to fulling maximise your salses and marketing.
01
Find Your Gap
We understand everything about you and your business-including that: the numbers matter, where you want to be, and why it's important to you.
​
This system gets you back in touch with your goal, the reasons why you set up your art business in the first place and it keeps your goal front and centre so it can't be hidden, forgotten or comprimised.
02
Foundation Blocks
Putting in place the basic marketing systems to equip you for success. Including: Marketing asset review, Google business profile, your follow up process, price reviews, re-marketing, systemised collection of reviews, your knowledge centre, your marketing calender, and more!
03
Fix Your Marketing
By far the 'beefiest' part of the system, this is where the bulk of the work will be.
​
The system breaks down everything into bite-size bits and you'll only ever tackle one or two pieces at a time, so you'll never be overwhelmed.
04
Know The Score
If you don't know the score you can't tell the winners from the losers so together we'll start by understanding how many leads are expected from each marketing pillar, per week or month and then tracking what happens.
CONTACT
Please let us know your preferred contact times for your discovery call in the message! We will email you back with the questionnaire and to confirm the timing.

We prefer Saturday calls but we can work around you!
