You do great work
You pump all your energy and expertise into making a difference for your community. No wonder there's next to nothing left in the tank to spread the word about what you do and connect to more humans who really need you.
What if you could:
● Say 'enough already' to half-hearted, underachieving marketing, and put the whole kit and caboodle in safe, skilful hands
● Wake up to perfectly planned, expertly executed, wow-worthy, marketing campaigns that bring you a flock of new clients and enhance your relationships with former and current ones
● Be seen and celebrated far and wide for being the positive, powerful, life affirming bunch of game-changers you so definitely are.
Now you can.
Hand us your messy, minimal, hit-and-miss marketing. We'll make it ethical, effective and engaging in a 💗beat.
I love the enthusiasm, knowledge and skills Laura brings to everything.
I am so grateful for the amazing marketing expertise of Laura at The Inspired Hive. We now have a presence on Facebook and Instagram and a whole new look to all our marketing material. Laura is great at passing on her knowledge and training staff as well, so we can be a little more self sufficient, although I couldn’t imagine doing marketing without Laura’s amazing touch.
Di Geddes | Exceptional Care for You
You’re a bunch of ace educators and community builders, but marketing just does your head in.
Sorting your marketing has been on the back burner since ... forever.
Maybe you handballed the job to your willing but wildly busy Office Admin/HR/Finance human. And they donned this extra hat and did their best to:
● Set up socials
Hello, unloved Insta and floundering Facebook pages
● Implement the tonne of tricks and tips they got at a marketing workshop
Cue overwhelm and analysis paralysis
● Update your website content
Cue frustration and fury from struggling with 'SEO this' and 'metadata that' and keeping everything schmick
● Create flyers in a flurry so you could make a splash at that conference/community event/ business after five
Alas, those flyers didn't fly ... cos not everyone's a natural on Canva
Now when someone says, 'We've gotta get on the front foot with our marketing', everyone feels:
Desperate
We're miles off the marketing pace. If we don't catch on and catch up our competitors will eat us alive
*What if it getting up to speed and sharpening your edge was easy and fun?*
Defeated
'Marketing's so hard, it sucks up hours, we can't spare and takes skills we don't have.
*What if it just got done ...brilliantly .. without doing your head in or draining your resources ?*
Discombobed
'Pleeze, don't pick (on) me. I'd help if I could, but I've got zero time and next to no skills, and I know it'd end badly.'
*What if we took care of it? But if you're keen to morph into a marketing ace, we'll support you.*

Precious time, energy, and brain space you save by handing the headbanging marketing job to someone who’ll get you seen, heard and sought after

The influx (inundation, more likely) of clients who connect, stick, and recommend you
