Four-week private intensive
Build your route to your
first clients.
You want to work for yourself, but you need a way to pursue paid work before you give up your salary.
Over four weeks, we’ll clarify what clients could hire you for, strengthen how you demonstrate its value and build a practical approach to starting the right conversations.
You don’t need a big public launch. You need a clear offer, reasons for people to consider you and a way to pursue opportunities that fits your current circumstances.
What we’ll work on
From experience to client conversations.
A connected approach to making your work clear, giving people reasons to trust it and putting it in front of relevant people.
01
Make the work clear
Move beyond your job title and a list of things you can do. We’ll identify the situations where your experience is useful, what a client could bring you in to change and how to explain that work clearly.
02
Give people reasons to consider you
Bring forward the examples, decisions and outcomes that demonstrate your contribution. We’ll make your value easier for a potential client to assess and for someone in your network to recommend.
03
Build your professional presence
Make your LinkedIn profile and public thinking reflect the work you want to be hired for. Develop ways to share your judgement and experience without relying on an announcement that you’re leaving your job.
04
Start the right conversations
Identify people who could buy, introduce or recommend your work. Develop your approach, put it into use and review the response, rather than leaving with messages you haven’t tried.
How we’ll work
Twice a week.
Keep the work moving.
We’ll use our eight sessions to make decisions, develop the work and review what you put into practice. You’ll need time between sessions for the agreed actions. By the end, you’ll have clearer positioning, evidence-led messaging and a practical plan for pursuing your first clients.

Scope and practical considerations
This is a focused four-week engagement, not a complete business build. It does not include extensive market research, website development or ongoing sales support. We’ll review key messaging, but a full website rewrite is not included.
We’ll take your current employment and availability into account. You remain responsible for checking any contractual restrictions, conflicts and confidentiality obligations before sharing material, undertaking outside work or approaching contacts.
The aim is to develop and begin using your route to clients. Signed clients or replacement income within four weeks are not guaranteed.
