OVERCOME IMPOSTER SYNDROME and gain the confidence you need to get out of your own way and unlock your potential as a high-end designer.

DIFFERENTIATE YOURSELF from the crowd by getting clear on what makes you unique and the ONLY designer for your ideal client so you can stop competing on price and play to your strengths.

CREATE A SIGNATURE OFFER and build a suit of services that turn your unique mix of skills and experience into packages your dream clients LOVE and refer to all their friends.

“Within three weeks of joining I’d made my investment back. Now I’ve 4 x my rates & landed multiple dream clients!”

“I feel so much clearer about the value I create and what makes me stand out. My business is in a totally different place to where it was before joining the programme. If you're on the fence about whether to join, just do it! I'm so glad I did.”

KATIE - HILODOES

in just 10 weeks, you & your biz can be in a totally different place.

Imagine this: you fire up your Mac book and see an email from a dream client you’ve been wanting to work with for ages. Turns out they’ve been stalking you! So when they got in touch to ask about your availability and you told them it’s a 3 month wait, your stomach dropped. But they didn’t even flinch OR haggle on your price. They understand you’re in demand and great at what you do which is why they’re willing to wait.

They’re paid the deposit, signed the contract and look forward to partnering up because they can see how your process helps them and gets them to where they want to be. You also firmly believe in your ability to serve them really well, you’ve got your process down and plenty of previous clients gaining awesome results.

So you can now sit back and enjoy the creative work you were born to do within a 4 day work week that feels really spacious and helps you to feel creatively recharged and fully present with family time off.

If this feels like a long way off for you right now, it is possible for you and I can show you how.

A simple step by step process & framework to follow so you can:

Elevate your design business and grow your income without the hustle or overwhelm which is keeping you stuck from reaching your potential.

Together we will:

🌸 Super clear and confident about what makes you unique and compelling as a designer so you’re the ONLY one for your dream clients.

🌸 Get known for your expertise and unique skills so you no longer feel like an order taker, stop competing on price and start getting paid to think.

🌸 Create a recognisable and aligned creative brand that people love and refer to all their friends

🌸 A unique framework and design process that delivers value and feels game-changing for your ideal clients.

🌸 No longer ‘pitch’ your services but attract high-end clients with the right positioning ready to benefit from your skills.

“I feel so much more confident as a designer now I have a clear, signature process I can rely on & clients love it!”

“I no longer feel afraid or stressed out to take on new clients, so I’m not holding back any more meaning I can now grow my business easily! I feel excited to take on a project knowing I have the foundations to create my best work and a schedule that feels calm and spacious.”

THE STRUGGLE IS REAL!

2 years into my design business i was ready to quit.

Hey I’m Helen, your design coach and mentor. I’ve been growing my design business since 2017 but a few years in, I was ready to call it quits. My days and weeks felt messy, I was juggling multiple clients and deadlines which was leaving me feeling completely exhausted and doubting my skills as a designer. I was putting so much time and energy in yet wondering why my hard work didn’t translate into my bank account.

I continued feeling overworked and undercharging until I hit breaking point - which is different for everyone but for me it was becoming a single parent. That’s when I realised the way I was working wasn’t working.

This was when I went back to basics, learnt how to position my design business for profit, unlock my value and transform my services and messaging to attract high-end clients which is when everything changed for me!

I now earn significantly more while working with fewer clients, enjoy a 4-day work week, pick and choose the projects I feel passionate about and more time off to feel recharged while spending time with my children.

You don’t have to wait to reach breaking point to get out of overwhelm and start making profit in your business.

Building a profitable design business that feels fulfilling and exciting does not have to feel this hard. I’m here to show you how!

I’m excited to show you how!

some of your questions ANSWERED:

  • Each week you’ll receive action steps & tailored training module to an area of growing your design business as well as a live call to gain support, advice and accountability.

    This is a small, intimate group format using a combination of weekly training & actions steps, live calls, hot seats, Q&A sessions along with individual feedback and community support to keep you moving towards your goals and getting the outcomes you want to achieve like charging more for your services and book amazing clients. This combination combines the power of a course with community and coaching so you can experience the best of all worlds!

  • The Q&A coaching sessions are every Thursday at 13pm GMT. These are live recorded sessions where you can ask me for feedback and any questions/challenges you may have.

    Each session is recorded so don’t worry if you can’t attend live. You can still submit your questions and have these answered on the call. You’ll be able to watch the replay immediately via the programme Facebook Group. You can also ask questions in the group in-between calls to you never have to wait for answers or feel stuck.

  • The next programme starts in May 2023, date tbc! Book a call to hear more details and the exact dates we’ll kick off.

  • I completely understand that investing in yourself and your business can feel daunting.

    There might be loads of ‘what if…’ questions flying around your head. However the best question to ask is ‘what if…. I don’t join the programme’

    Where will you be in 6 months time? Will you still feel stuck, overwhelmed and underpaid?

    Then, what would your business and life look like with a roadmap for success? Working with clients and charging a premium confidently and easily? How many clients would it take to see your investment back?

    Up-levelling takes commitment both time and financially but the pay off is immense. Only you can decide if the results and outcome are worth it for you and join at a time that feels right to take the leap forward in your business.

  • I get it, it can feel hard to fit working on your own brand & business while delivering client work and other demands so every module is maximised to be as short and impactful as possible.

    Training modules are kept to an average of 10-20 minutes each week with simple actions steps to implement along with a weekly 60 minute coaching call.

    If you can find 2 hours to commit each week to the process you’ll be in a great position at the end of the programme. There are also 2 implementation weeks to ensure you have breathing room to work on your business.
