Marketing Training for Your Business.

Everyone seems to have an opinion on the right marketing technique for your business. If only it was that simple.

Marketing isn’t rocket science, but it is complex. Understanding the complexity - helps you make informed decisions on the right direction for your business.

Innovate to Win Program

Hi,

My name is Judy Celmins, I started ThriveableBiz mainly out of frustration in watching small businesses waste sooo much time and money trying to connect with their customers.

          I see very little that connects and inspires people to buy.


And the number of times I get asked out of the blue… “Will x work in my business?” My answer is, maybe? I know, not at all helpful…lol.

The thing is that I need to know a lot more about your business. Every business is as unique as you are.

You blend into the background if you do the same as other businesses in your category. And that’s not going to help you grow.

         

Now, some elements are very similar, and that’s where knowledge of all sorts of marketing comes into play. Blending that with your uniqueness is what creates breakthrough marketing.

          It’s a creative dance. Understanding the market and the channels working together creates what seems like magic at times.

That’s why I’ve created this Digital Marketing Training.

Now, I can do all your marketing for you. But I believe in helping you understand where and why your money goes.

          That empowers you and makes it easier to make ongoing decisions in your marketing.

As one of my students, Rachel, said, “... over the years I have been enrolled and attended many other online and in person seminars always with various results. Since undertaking the ThriveableBiz marketing course I have been so impressed with the content and support from Judy...”

You’ll work with me to target the areas that are most important to you. Plus, you’ll have ongoing access to 26 weeks of recorded training covering all marketing areas, and I’ll continually update it.


Marketing that connects with your audience and drives them to take action is the outcome of this one-on-one training. It’s a tailored program, covering aspects like understanding your target and why they buy. You’ll define your purpose and point of difference, taking that through to writing engaging copy. This removes you from playing the no-win pricing game. Instead, you add real value, which sets you apart from competitors.


          For as little as $1000 you can take control of your marketing. 

Plus, registered businesses may qualify for a voucher to cut that in half!

I'm a lot more confident!

The course has enabled me to be able to increase my knowledge in digital applications. I'm a lot
more confident on my computer and will attempt a new task myself. In the past I would have
asked for help much sooner. My in depth understanding is much deeper now.

Updated my digital skills

Who knew there was so much to learn?! Seriously, I am enjoying the course and the topics are
making more and more sense to me as we build up our knowledge. I have found myself noticing how
other people's sites work (or not), so I must be learning.

Awesome work team.

Saved myself thousands in marketing fees.

I just want to say a massive thank you to Judy for the training so far, from what I
have learned I have been able to create my own website for the new side hustle I have going on. Then showing someone's website with a booking system and how that can benefit your business which I have done, + all the info I have learned about SEO, think I have saved myself thousands in marketing fees!

Wouldn't have done this without the training.

Facebook content calendar in place and also some templates we have designed to give a consistent look to our posts.
Find the calendar a great tool to make you sit down and plan. Not just the post content but also
logistics such as ingredients / till changes etc but also the team comms regarding the 'why',
'who' 'when' and 'how' regarding our post.
Wouldn't have done this without your training Judy.

I understand a lot more now how to utilise my online presence more effectively.

I have found the ThriveableBiz training really beneficial. I have already implemented much of what I have learnt, and there is still more to do. Knowing I can go back to those topics and watch the recorded session at any time is reassuring, and I know I can implement as I need them. Thank you Judy for facilitating such a great course. It has definitely helped me. I understand a lot more now how to utilise my online presence more effectively. I've learned so much that I have put in place or have a plan to put in place.

It is an approach that has worked like nothing else

I have been a business owner since 2017, running a business, attracting clients, marketing and
social media presence was something I knew nothing about, over the years I have been enrolled
and attended many other online and in person seminars always with various results. Since
undertaking the ThriveableBiz marketing course I have been so impressed with the content and
support from Judy. It is an approach that has worked like nothing else I have
undertaken before. Each week you are genuinely excited about what the course offers, what you
can learn and practical ways to implement in the business. Honestly, if this type of course
material was available to me in the beginning I could have saved years of fumbling and
inexperience.
