Mentorship for female entrepreneurs
Let's grow- together
Do you need a business mentor?
​
You are brilliant at what you do. That much I'm sure of. But let's be honest- at some point you've done all the growing you can do all on your own.
You can't be objective when it comes to your own business, and if you're dealing with imposter syndrome or feeling unsure of your next steps or stuck in a bit of a rut? You probably need a little accountability, a little support and little bit of encouragement (think: your own personal small biz cheerleader!) to help guide you in the right direction again.
Maybe you're just starting out and wanting mentorship from the get go? I'm here for you too (and super proud you figured this out so early in the game!)
​​
accountability (or lack there of)
​
Accountability is one of the biggest challenges of running your own business (and one of the only downsides to being your own boss). You make time for your client work and customer orders, but what about when it comes to your own business growth?
I did a bit of digging into the psychology on this, and it turns out you have a 65% chance of completing a goal when you tell someone about it. And if you have a meeting about it? A 95% chance you'll follow through (according to a recent and well documented study done across the pond).
It makes sense- once you define a goal, say it loud, and add a few helpful nudges along the way? You are far more likely to complete it.
What does a small business mentor do, exactly?
​​
​I work exclusively with solopreneurs and small business owners in Scotland.
In short, I'm here to guide you and work collaboratively with you to determine and work towards your next business goals.
In more detail, I'm here to help you:
- define clear goals and create a step by step action plan to achieve them
​
- set timeframes and deadlines that I'll help keep to accountable to
​
- troubleshoot current challenges (and new ones that pop up along the way)
​
- encourage you, and make a big fuss about the wins: large and small
​
- offer experienced, expert, impartial advice
​
- adapt your business to better suit your day to day life​​​​
​
What makes me different than other mentors for solopreneurs?
​
​
I like to think it's my relaxed and friendly approach, my willingness to share the real tough stuff (entrepreneurship and motherhood) and my holistic, multi-faceted style that make me unique as a mentor for female entrepreneurs.
​
If you're looking for credentials though:
​​
- I have started and grown two thriving small businesses on a new continent
- I grew from side hustle to full time self employed in only 18 months
- I have grown my revenue annually by 50%, year upon year
- I have a degree in Rhetoric & Communications and almost two decades of experience working with small creative businesses and third sector organizations
​
All while growing and raising two small humans (one of whom has multiple disabilities and very high care needs) DIY renovating a Victorian House, and keeping two pets and one husband alive. Not bad, eh?​
Ok- but how does this work? I'm still my own boss... right?
You betcha! I'm not here to take over your role as your boss- you don't need that! Mentorship isn't about calling the shots- it's about guiding. We work together, collaboratively, every single step of the way.
In terms of how much accountability I offer- that's something we figure out together. I will tailor my support based on your specific needs and we will adapt your plan as your business evolves.
We will have regular mentoring sessions (options for bi-weekly, monthly or bi-monthly), as well as check-ins, follow ups, reminders and any ad hoc support you need along the way.
I offer flexible session times (evenings and some weekends as well) and if you need to bring your tiny human along to a meeting or call? They are more than welcome.
