Is Your Business Running Your Life Instead of the Other Way Around?
Performance Coaching and Marketing for family business owners
Performance Coaching and Marketing for family business owners
“The secret to happiness is to be working at your passion. If you want to be miserable, lead a desperate life like everybody else where they drag their asses to work every day because they hate their job.”
- Yvon Chouinard, Founder of Patagonia
Your business is doing well, but your marketing isn't pulling its weight. Maybe you're doing bits and pieces when you can find time - sporadic social posts, the occasional email - but nothing consistent or strategic. Or you're paying someone who produces generic content that doesn't sound like you and doesn't generate enquiries.
Most family business owners are trapped between two bad options: doing marketing themselves (which takes time from running the business) or hiring someone who doesn't understand what makes their business different.
After 30 years in marketing and 20 years in business, I help business owners get their marketing sorted - either by taking care of it for them or by mentoring them to do it better themselves.
The main difference? I understand you're not just building a business. You're building a life. Your marketing should support both, not grind you down.

Why this works:
You get 30 years of practitioner experience without the HR headaches of employing a marketer. No managing someone, no wondering if they understand your business, no paying for theory that doesn't convert.
I focus on fundamentals that work in the real world, tested through multiple economic cycles. Not this week's alleged algorithm hack.
N.B. Only two spaces available for done-for-you marketing.
This is for you if:
What you get:
1-to-1 coaching covering marketing strategy plus the bigger picture: protecting your time, building systems that work without you, priority management, training clients to respect boundaries, and setting up your business so it doesn't consume every waking hour.
The goal? A business that gives you more money and more sanity.
This is focused attention on what YOUR business needs to thrive. No groups, no generic advice, no guru nonsense. Just actionable, fluff-free strategies from someone who's built businesses through recessions, pandemic, and everything between.
Drop me an email or WhatsApp and we can have a quick back-and-forth. If it seems like there's a good fit, we'll arrange a Zoom call.
Or book a Power Hour (£349) - 60 minutes focused entirely on your biggest business challenge. You'll leave with specific, actionable strategies to implement immediately. If we work together afterwards, the fee comes off your first month.
