It’s no secret that one of my passions is small business mentoring & coaching. Every time I mentor someone new, my heart expands seeing other creatives’ grow and thrive from the changes we work to implement.
My small business coaching & creative mentoring sessions focus on peeling back the layers and finding what makes your heart beat the fastest. I find this is the most important way to kick start your business and offerings- find out where your passion is and expand from there. I’ve helped a lot of photographers and creatives transition from the mundane of things they think they HAVE to do, to the things they love doing; the things that brighten our world.
Mentoring is also a great way to build confidence in your business and evolve your ideas. Sessions can be focused on whatever you’d like, whether it’s the business side or the creative side. In the past we’ve discussed things such as staying creative, finding your vision, building your business, pricing, establishing your business, portfolio/business reviews and much, much more. Mentoring works best when it’s over a period of time, so sessions are built to encourage that, though for those of you looking for just a quick and short business recharge, I offer 1 hour mentoring sessions based solely on sustainable and creative business pricing.
This year I want to work on expanding my mentoring sessions and one of my best pieces of advice I give to my mentors looking to grow a part of their business out is to offer a limited time booking special or a giveaway. It helps spread the word that you exist and allows a few people who wouldn’t otherwise be able to book you, get to know how valuable your services are 🙂
To celebrate kicking off expanding my mentoring sessions, I am giving away ONE: 1 hour mentoring session (either in person or on the phone), to be used between now and the end of 2017. (Session value of $125 can be applied towards a two hour mentoring session or a mini workshop).
HOW TO ENTER TO WIN: I am going to post this to our facebook business page.

“I had the pleasure of sitting with Christina one on one to talk about business and setting some business goals. We were in such a comfortable setting and what could be stressful talking about the true business parts of business was actually exciting. It was so encouraging to be able to share ideas get feed back and advice on how to best execute them, Christina is so willing to share how she does things and the tools she uses to better help her business. It was like sitting with a great friend and getting the encouragement, guidance and push you needed to get your business to the next level and she helps you think about what you want and what needs to be done to get there. Since then I have put into action the ideas that we discussed and have had a great response and am looking forward to meeting again soon.” -Amanda, Portrait Photographer
