Focus & Flourish Marketing

Focus & Flourish presented workshops for the chamber as part of Small Business Month on 'Writing newsletters people will actually read' and 'Using Instagram in your marketing'. These were our highest selling and most attended workshops.They also presented at our first networking event post-covid to more than 40 people. This was a critical event for the chamber as it helped reinvigorate networking and community connection.Mel and Ngaire are incredibly generous with their support for small businesses, they present really clear, practical strategies and tactics to improve your marketing, and they have an infectious energy that inspires and motivates action.We will actively look for more opportunities to work with Focus & Flourish. They offer real value and can help businesses have a greater impact. There's no point having a great product or service if no one knows about it, and Focus & Flourish can help you spread the word in an authentic and achievable way.

Wow! What a dynamic duo Mel and Ngaire are from Focus & Flourish. I attended their marketing workshop early Dec. and was amazed by their communication, smooth booking process, opportunities provided to share on my business for personalised feedback and tools to truly breakthrough and set my year up for success. I highly recommend working with Focus & Flourish.

I had the pleasure of taking part in the From Selling to Serving course with Focus & Flourish which involved a combination of online videos, self-paced worksheets, FB group and Zoom group coaching over 5 weeks. I absolutely recommend the course as a way to kick-start your marketing in a genuine, true-to-yourself and manageable way.I had been stuck feeling icky about marketing as it felt like a sell. Focus & Flourish guided me step-by-step through a process to discover and articulate the benefits of the service I provide and how it is valued by my dream audience. Now I help people through empathising with the problems they face and offering a solution. I have become a problem solver in my marketing, and it no longer feels like I am selling.The learning environment and intimate group coaching works really well as it allows the space for people doing the course to share their challenges and bounce ideas off each other. Ngaire and Mel gently encouraged and nudged us along the way, were very generous with their time and ideas, and it's sooo nice to have the Zoom group coaching. It keeps you motivated!

Ngaire and Mel are lovely and deliver valuable content in a pragmatic way. I've done two workshops with them and was very happy both times.

I went to a full-day workshop with Ngaire recently and she's so encouraging and helpful. She guided us through best practices and practical ways to implement what she was showing us. I went home having completed a full blog post and collateral to promote the post on social media and in my newsletter.I've seen both Mel and Ngaire speak previously and their enthusiasm is so infectious. I'll happily give F&F my money in the future :)Thank you!

I just met Mel yesterday who gave a presentation right after me that I really needed to hear. She is the true marketing expert and I cannot say enough good things about her presentation or the quality of advice she provided to me for my business at the end of the event.After listening to her I realise that I need to flick" some of the things I'm doing to increase clients and try some of the things she recommended because they are workable solutions. Not only that
