Happy Pride, Queer Entrepreneurs! Let's help our LGBTQ+ community thrive through our businesses and services.

Join the challenge June 20
 Serving Our Communities with Pride

As Queer entrepreneurs, we have a unique understanding of the needs of our LGBTQ+ brothers, sisters, and non-binary folks. We've created businesses to serve our community and beyond, but sometimes it can be challenging to attract new clients and generate consistent revenue. We know our products are great and we're skilled at what we do, but it's crucial for others to recognize it too. 
That's why I'm excited to invite you to the "Launch with Pride" challenge. Where we will help LGBTQ+ entrepreneurs using productive marketing strategies, to grow their businesses this summer.  
Pride season is here, and now is the perfect time to join and unlock the full potential of your Queer business. 
Don't miss out - sign up today!

Common Concerns I've Heard... 

  • "I created my course and program, but can't get enough people to see it"
  • "I post on social media or have a podcast, but I'm barely getting any new clients" 
  • "My pre-launch and launch plan takes months, and I don't know if it will even work"
  • ​"I don't wanna dance or post thirst traps to get customers on social media"
  • ​"Customers are going to someone who is less inclusive, less qualified and more expensive even though I can serve them at a higher level at an affordable price"
  • ​"I know my business and skills, but marketing is new and I don't have time to become an expert"

If any of these ring true for you, this event can help you.

Why should I join this event?

The goal of this challenge is to help entrepreneurs learn effective strategies to grow their business, based on where you are right now. Each day there will be training on a business strategy, followed by specific actions you can take to implement or improve this in your business. You will also be able to connect with other LGBTQ+ inclusive entrepreneurs to hear stories, learn from their shares, and do some networking.
Are you interested in joining this free, live training?

What will we learn in the Challenge?

Pride in your Purpose

We get to make a difference in the world around us! We'll define our vision and clarify the purpose in both our lives and business, so we can create a compass for your marketing plan.

Pride in your Product

What do you sell? What service do you provide? We will discuss your current offerings, ideas to improve it, and other tips so you can solve your customers' problems and serve them at a higher level.

Pride in your People

Who do you serve? There are 8 billion people in the world, and you can't serve everyone. We'll discuss strategies to niche down and define your ideal client, so you can truly understand and focus your efforts in the right direction.

Pride in your Presentation

All marketing strategies work.. but which ones work for you? We'll discuss various frameworks and strategies, along with their pros and cons. So you can use to decide which is most authentic for you to start marketing your product or service in your business. 

Pride in your Plan

After creating all the building blocks throughout the week, we will bring it all together. The goal of day 5 will be to connect the dots and create a marketing plan to authentically and confidently promote your business! There will be hot-seats, reviews and time for questions & answers.

Identify your perfect client

Create a Unique Offer

Your product or service can become a unique solution that no one else can provide. You will learn how to package a solution, that people actually want, which also gives transformation the need.

Provide Value in Advance

Challenges thrive on "Taste and See" marketing. You will learn how to organize a challenge that truly serves your niche, and provides them with a tangible transformation in a few days.

By The End Of This Event You Will Have:

Clarity on Your Vision and Values

Confidence in Your Offer and Messaging

Customized Plan for Marketing

Why are you running this challenge? Is it really free?

Over the last few years, I've completed a few entrepreneurship and marketing programs and most leaders aren't LGBTQ+, affirming nor inclusive. In my daily life, I have met many smart Queer entrepreneurs with awesome ideas, but no marketing strategy. My goal of running this free challenge is to simplify these marketing strategies so that  LGBTQ+ entrepreneurs can implement them authentically and profitably in their business.

Yes, the challenge is COMPLETELY free. If you want to continue working together there is an application process after the challenge.

Dear LGBTQ+ Entrepreneur,

As Queer entrepreneurs, we know that coming out isn't easy, and technically…. we never stop. It's a process that we face every time we meet new people, travel to new places, and connect in the workplace. We've been told by society and business to leave parts of ourselves at home, to keep our personal lives out of the marketplace, and to prioritize our clients' comfort over our own authenticity. As entrepreneurs, it gets better worse. But in 2024, I strongly disagree.

We've made much progress as a community, but in the US, and around the world, different political leaders and examples, courts and others are making decisions that affect the rights and lives of Queer people and our communities, and often... going backwards. 

If we have learned anything during this pandemic, it's that life is too short to not make the most of everyday. Our businesses provide value to, and for, our communities, and each of us need to bring more of ourselves into our business. If others won't help us, we need to grow our businesses so that we can take care of our own and be more generous in our communities. 

Selling is helping people make a decision in the direction they want to go, and as an LGBTQ+ Entrepreneur, your product or service is valuable and can result in a better experience for our communities, families, and the world.

Imagine the freedom of being unapologetically authentic and only working with people who appreciate your individuality. It's not only possible, but it's my mission to help you achieve it.

Join my free interactive challenge and learn strategies to connect with your future clients in a matter of days. I'll share tactics that will help you tell your business story authentically, and impactfully to your community. You'll also learn a framework that allows you to be authentic, dynamic, and creative while providing value to your niche and impacting lives even if they don't become customers.

Together, we can change the lives of our clients and our queer siblings who need our offers and services in their lives. If you're ready to stand out this Pride season, and achieve your vision for more impact and income, sign up for our challenge starting on April 25th.

I'm excited to serve you and support our community. Will you join me?
