You CAN build a business the RIGHT way.
In a world filled with influencers, top tips, & quick wins, there is a BETTER way to build your business.
By focusing on impact, we will dive into proven sales and business development practices to help you build a healthy, sustainable, and manageable business.

Key outcomes
Learn how to identify your businesses core impact.
We'll dive into tangible examples to help you create your own (or updated) definition of impact and how to build it into the ethos of your business.
Identify & leverage your specific knowledge (natural skills).
What are you naturally good at? What are your biggest strengths? Even if you are well on your way, or just getting started, we'll help you revisit your specific knowledge and apply that to growing your services and business.
Find the RIGHT customers.
By diving into proven business development and sales practices I've implemented time and time again to close over $10M in sales, we will build your sustainable business.
An action plan that is manageable and realistic - building both income & impact.
We'll bring it all together with helpful tools and examples to combine your personal definition of social impact, your specific knowledge, with latest business development practices. You'll come away equipped to take your work (and business) to the next level.
Win more (of the right) business.
Creating a sustainable business is part 1. Finding the right customers so you do work you love and that is impactful, is part 2.

Course syllabus
01
Defining impact
In our first module, we'll define (or revisit) what impact means to you and your business. Think of it as your north star. Without it, you'll never have the sustained energy to last.
02
Identifying & building our Specific Knowledge
Mapping out what drives us, what comes naturally to us, and what services we aim to provide will give us a clear path forward for what to sell, who to sell it to, and how to position our services and our work.
03
Build your business development & sales process
Now, we're ready to dive into my business development and sales system that will help you attract, land, and close the right clients. A sustainable and impactful model that will help you reach revenue goals.
04
Creating a system that lasts.
Vital to any small business is a system that works, a system that is sustainable and scaleable.
In module 4, we'll bring it all together to create an actionable roadmap. (You can take a horse to water, but can't make it drink - until now!)
