Daily business support designed with YOU at the heart of it

In the many years I’ve been working with those who want to launch into this industry, the biggest hurdles are a lack of confidence, knowledge, accountability from a private community and inspiration. This is why businesses fail to launch and become profitable quickly. I want to fix that with:

Weekly Live Calls

Exclusive Training

Private Community

After many requests, I have built a QUALITY COMMUNITY away from social media where people can get IN-DEPTH answers to their burning questions as soon as they come up.

This supportive group of people would together become a hive mind and an inner circle. 

The journey of a business owner is hard… especially in hospitality.

Doubt.

Loneliness.

Overthinking.

Knowledge gaps.

No peer group for support.

No direct access to experts.

Relentless distractions.

Confusion about tools.

And the fear of rejection.

Success can never be guaranteed but the probability of success can definitely be improved when joining forces with others who share a common goal.

It can make the whole journey a lot more enjoyable too!

That is my vision for the Start Up And Grow Club.

As Featured In...

Because everyone deserves to make a living doing something they love

This Club is for those who have only just started thinking about unique hospitality as a possible business and others who have already started and are ready to GROW BIG... personally and professionally.

It is also for those who have been going for some time and need a boost of support, motivation and inspiration.

This secret space with a private community is not on social media and it is not open to everyone.

It is a high-vibe place where we can talk openly about the successes and challenges we face every day and where answers to questions can be found. 

With this tribe I will bring you behind-closed-doors interviews, not published elsewhere else content, weekly face-to-face time with me and the experts, helping make your business AMAZING!

 

Designed to give you:

  • Regular face-to-face time with me in weekly Q&As (attend when you want)

  • Support and accountability from a community of people in a private space (not on social media)

  • Unshared-anywhere-else-training and knowledge

  • Time with special guests and experts from every corner of the globe

"So many good points, advice and trade secrets, which are for us are the most useful and hard to come by. Not many are willing to share, so thank you so much. I could listen to your wealth of knowledge for another few hours... "

An opportunity to build your support system

We rise by lifting others but at times we need lifting too!

The four key elements of this Club are:

  1. Having an hour of face-to-face Q&A time with me and other experts each week at 6.30 pm GMT
  2. Access to a super private community not on social media
  3. A members area where extra training will be shared based on what you want
  4. Time with special guests and experts in the industry

 

This will allow you to ask questions like:

How can I negotiate a lower % with a booking platform and what deal is everyone else getting?

 

A place to do a bit of sanity checking or find accountability to get the work done. 

I keep getting stuck on my business plan and finances, and it’s holding me back!

 

To find solutions to problems and burning questions you don’t want to share in an open forum.

Can I be sure I’ll be able to replace my current salary if I start a unique hospitality business?

My bookings aren't looking as good as I'd hoped. What can I do about that?

 

Or maybe you’ve had an unfair complaint from a tricky guest and you want to know how to handle it or just talk about it privately in a safe space with others who will understand.

And yes, as a tribe we can do so much to tip the balance of an unfair review… if we stand together.

Or possibly you are predicting a bumpy financial future unless you get your bookings up.

Or maybe you need inspirational time with the experts I know, who can show you how to:

  • Raise money for your project without going to the bank
  • How to get investment-ready with advice from industry professionals
  • Unique ways to source land and buildings 
  • What you need to get guests booking with you instead of online travel agents to avoid commission fees
  • Styling your space to give an unforgettable guest experience (from the creator of George Clarkes Amazing Spaces)
  • How to work effectively off-grid (from a glamping business owner who worked off-grid with Carlsberg)
  • All the steps of how to run a successful retreat from an event planner
  • Running joint ventures with others to grow your social media and get more bookings
  • New trends and business models as they emerge
  • Face-to-face guidance with a professional photographer to help you improve your social media images
  • Taking care of your health and stress levels so you don't burn out

And so much more to keep you inspired-to-start and motivated-to-grow!

"Glad to be part of the group, they were all very supportive last night, it’s a lovely group of people.  Well done for getting us all together and for the opportunity to grow there!"

But this isn't for everyone...

If this is you, I can't wait to show you what's waiting for you inside...

Take a look inside...

 

"I took part in your ‘recession proofing’ course during the lockdown and really enjoyed it. I found it really interesting that when I put your tips in to practice, I beat (OTA) Canopy and Stars to it, and (direct) guest bookings through my own website have been 50% higher than the whole of last year in just the three months I have been open this year."
