Background:
Karen, the owner of Clear and Sparkle based in Kettering, a successful cleaning business established for over a decade, recently diversified her services by introducing decluttering and organising solutions. This addition resonated with Karen’s passion, yet despite her dedication, she encountered challenges in effectively marketing this new venture.
Challenges Faced:
Karen, while good at running her business, found herself struggling to gain traction with her marketing efforts for the decluttering and organising service. Despite her best efforts, she felt stagnant and sought assistance to propel her business forward without relinquishing control over her operations.
Engagement with Digital Mentoring:
Recognising the need for strategic guidance, Karen engaged in mentoring partnership Green Opal digital consultancy, seeking to build on her own digital marketing skills while retaining control over her social media business. Gemma at Green Opal Digital and Karen started a monthly mentoring journey, fostering regular dialogue and strategizing sessions.
Approach:
Through structured monthly meetings Gemma and Karen delved into refining marketing strategies tailored specifically for the decluttering and organising service. The focus was not only on enhancing her technical skills but also nurturing Karen’s creativity in conveying her brand more effectively.
Achievements:
Following just one month of collaborative effort, tangible results began to emerge. Karen’s initial goal of securing bookings a month in advance for her new service was not only met but exceeded. Clients took notice of the revitalised social media presence, acknowledging its marked improvement.
Key Outcomes:
- Karen achieved her target of being fully booked a month ahead for the decluttering and organising service.
- Enhanced technical and creative skills empowered Karen to navigate digital platforms more effectively.
- Positive client feedback highlighted the perceptible improvement in Clear and Sparkle’s online presence.
- Improved confidence as some times we just need a little bit of support.
Gemma has helped and supported me through her business Green Opal Digital Consultancy. Originally helping me look at my socials and work out who my target audience was and how to reach them.
Gemma gave me great advice on what to post and when, and from a few fab media posts my business has grown and I am currently fully booked for the month of April.
Gemma is a likable person and very easy to connect with. She is very knowledgeable and hands-on mentoring me and my business. She keeps in touch and sends me gentle reminders and gives me a little nudge from time to time to keep me motivated. I would recommend Gemma and her business to anyone that finds anything Digital a bit difficult or if just needed a helping hand to expand and grow a business online.
