Simple, Purposeful Marketing: How to Attract Clients & Grow Your Business with Confidence
Marketing Doesn’t Have to Be Overwhelming. Let’s Make It Simple.

Marketing is the foundation of every successful business, but so many women entrepreneurs overcomplicate it—often to make up for a lack of confidence in what they offer. But here’s the truth: Marketing is simply about connection. Your best-fit, future clients won't remember what you said but they will remember how you connected with them. That's marketing! And when you market with connection in mind rather than perfection, attracting clients becomes effortless.

 

 Join Me for This Transformational Session Where You’ll Learn:

  • A Simple Formula to Evaluate & Improve Your Marketing
    • The 3 critical questions to assess your current marketing efforts
    • How to make actionable adjustments, iterations and plan to bridge that gap to where you want to end the year
  • The 3 Core Marketing Strategies That Lead to Consistent Growth
    • Marketing isn’t about doing everything—it’s about doing the right things consistently
    • The 3 Fundamental Marketing strategies and how you can tailor them to your business and how you like to connect
  • The 4 Core Beliefs That Will Transform Your Marketing (and Your Results)
    • So many of us overcomplicate marketing when we don’t believe in our business value or lack belief that our services are in demand or that there are enough clients within reach to achieve the impact and revenue we want. I'll teach you how to:
      • Focus on the business value you do have, the future clients that are already around you and the demand that already exists and how to build it. 
    • When you embody belief in your business value and demand, everything changes. Your energy shifts, you show up more confidently, and you start attracting the right people to your business with more ease and flow. 
  • Create Your One-Page Marketing Plan 
    • By the end of our time together, you’ll have a simple, actionable plan to market your business in a way that feels natural, effective, and aligned with your strengths

 

Finally: Find the Hidden Money in Your Business Masterclass

Free up thousands without working harder or adding more to your plate.

Most businesses have hidden money sitting right in front of them—they just don’t know where to look. In this live masterclass, you’ll learn how to uncover untapped cash flow, simplify how you work, and free up money to grow your business without adding more to your plate.

 

 

What You’ll Learn:

  • Where your money is hiding – The overlooked expenses and inefficiencies draining your profits.
  • How to simplify and streamline – Reduce chaos, improve cash flow, and create more breathing room.
  • How to find quick wins – Walk away with at least four figures in unlocked cash flow.

What others are saying... 

"My business has grown so much over the last few years and I couldn't imagine making the transition from solopreneur/employee to CEO without the support and guidance I have received from coaching with Melissa. It can be really scary to invest in yourself and your business, but I am learning that it is well worth it. It has been a wild ride, but I am so excited to see where the next 5 years will take me and my business."
