1) How was the session for you?
The session with you, is a bit like a ‘healing session’ for the relationship between me and my business 😉. I like how you help me get things ‘grounded’ into the physical. When one does Energy work etc, at times we unconsciously tend to keep things/concepts quite ethereal…working with you has helped me ground my ideas into concrete steps…I also like how you are intuitively tuned up and are quick to bring me to my centre when I spend too much time in my head!
2) What did you gain from it, if anything?
Much MORE Clarity on my next steps. Validation about the products I intend to propose. Encouragement/Motivation to keep moving towards the direction of my heart-guided activity. Guidance on platform that would be most appropriate for my business.
3) Anything else you'd like to add?
I found the question you sent prior to our first session super helpful to streamline my thoughts and ideas, prior to a session with you.

1) How was the session for you?
I found the session incredibly inspiring which has motivated me to take guided actions as discussed.
2) What did you gain from it, if anything?
It confirmed key points that I had already pondered, helping clarify the action steps required but also granted me a very clear picture of how my personality type is perceived by another which was beneficial. I really appreciated the validation with my expertise and the value of what I have to offer from an experienced expert in the field of marketing. This helped me own my worth and value, particularly with what I can charge in exchange for my offerings.
3) If we could re-run the session again, what more would you like to receive from it?
The session offered a lot of value and provided a depth of understanding that I appreciate. It also gave me the encouragement to land in a grounded place of worth, as I often vacillate with how I provide value and second guess myself. Sometimes, I still have those thoughts of breaking into a crowded market and whether there is space for my work. I feel moving forward, that encouragement around this would help me stay committed to my work, knowing that I am making adifference, especially coming from someone who reviews the content out there and has first hand feedback from what exists in this niche market.

‘I first approached Mark because I wanted a website. Mark made me aware that having a website is simple, the magic is in creating a brand.

"I chose the GA process because I felt that my business needed some attention and a plan to grow into new markets and bigger markets"I chose Mark because of his strong marketing background.
Mark has helped me to look at my business more objectively and given me some excellent help in order to ensure each project is more profitable. Mark always understood and related to where I was and how I was feeling. He took me out of my comfort zone but was there to guide me and support me when I needed reassurance. I was also able to be clearer about what I needed to change in order to get to where I wanted to be.
I can’t imagine going through the GA process with anyone else."

“I have learnt a lot from the way Mark works. I love his friendly, yet professional style. What makes Mark a great marketing coach is his 'never give up' attitude, it's infectious and highly motivating! Mark was always doing more - asking more questions, coming up with additional ideas. Mark listens to the client as well as delving into the lives of the consumer and then makes recommendations based upon the current and future needs of them BOTH - something that sounds simple but all too often does not happen. He always has the best interest of the business first and is a pleasure to work with.”
