Selling doesn’t have to be sleezy

We’ve all seen it…fake countdown timers, forced FOMO, and people being pushier than the peer-pressuring teenagers of your youth.


You don’t get down with those tactics, but…you need clients…like now.
(Possibly because you got so busy doing other client work that you stopped marketing…oops! We’ve all been there…ask me how I know 🤪)

Now you feel at a loss of how to get them without giving yourself the ick.

But figuring out how to sell to your work in a tough economy doesn’t have to require chucking your values in the trash. You can find and sign new clients without the full-body ick factor. I’ll teach you how!

Selling doesn’t have to feel as dreadful as filing your taxes

Instead of feeling stressed about getting more inquiries (and even worse, having to convince people to work with you 🤢) what if your brand was doing the heavy lifting, with people eager to reach out, already sold on what you offer?

Instead of slashing prices like you’re bushwhacking your way through the wilderness hoping to make a buck, you could have dream clients who understand the value of your work reaching out to you, ready to invest!

That’s exactly what this workshop is made to help you do!

This workshop is for you if...

  • You’re a values-led entrepreneur who believes inclusion and integrity aren’t optional (they’re the bare minimum).

  • You love what you do but selling gives you the ick

  • You want to attract dream clients who are excited to work with you (that you don’t feel like you have to slash prices to get to buy)

  • You want to find a way to make more money that doesn’t require pushy, sleazy sales tactics that just don’t feel right to you

  • You want a business where your dream clients don’t need convincing

The Workshop: Your Off-Season Strategy

What You’ll Learn

This is a live, interactive workshop designed specifically for values-led, LGBTQ+ inclusive wedding pros (photographers, planners, florists, etc.) and creatives who want to build businesses that reflect their values and grow sustainably.

Here’s what we’ll cover:

  • How to overcome the fear of being salesy without gaslighting yourself

  • How to sell authentically in a way that works for you

  • How to attract dream clients so that the people who do reach out are pre-qualified (rather than someone you feel like you have to “convince”)

  • How to stay aligned with your values because that sh*t isn’t optional, especially not now when outspoken, values-driven folks are needed now more than ever.

Meet Kristy (she/they)

Oh hey! It’s me! I’m a strategic business mentor and brand designer with the personality of a golden retriever and a passion for leading jam-packed workshops (I have a masters degree in adult education and a not-so-secret hatred for in-actionable workshops). My belief is that our work as entrepreneurs is an invitation to create positive change in the world, and I take that very seriously.

If you love to buck the binaries in biz, I know we’ll vibe. You can learn more about my values here.

And if you don’t support the global majority and LGBTQIA+ communities with your full chest, don’t waste your time signing up. This ain’t the spot for you.

Why This Workshop Is Different

This isn’t just some fluff-stuffed mindset workshop or a sales pitch in a trench coat. I know your time is precious, and I don’t take it lightly that you want to spend some of it with me.

This workshop is a jam-packed presentation based on everything I’ve learned from helping values-led professionals thrive over the past decade.

Most people only give testimonials from paid programs, but even my free workshops get people hyped up!
