Building a business like downhill skiing, and when you’re learning to ski it helps to have an experienced instructor. I am that person for female-led small businesses. I don’t have time for gimmicks, I support female led-businesses by teaching founders tried and tested, action-focused marketing methods, in a straight-forward, jargon-free way.
