Could you lend me a hand?

How's it going? Back into the swing of things after Summer, I hope?

September seems to be the time that for many of us, our attention turns towards planning ahead. We're heading towards the last quarter of the year and we start to think a bit more seriously about Getting Stuff Done.

If you're planning to launch a new brand or website in January, this is a friendly reminder that the time to start a conversation is right now! We can only ever take on a limited number of projects per month, and tend to get booked up in advance - so please get in touch sooner rather than later for an initial chat.But speaking of planning ahead, we're launching something fresh in the new year and I'd love to hear your thoughts. For the first time, we'll be welcoming you to an online mastermind class, bringing together a handful of solo entrepreneurs and business owners who share the Ditto philosophy of communicating with spirit and personality!

We'll meet once a month, focusing on promoting your business beyond the brand. I'm still brainstorming the class outline, but it's likely that we'll cover some of these subjects:

• Who your people are, and how to reach them

• The essentials of your media kit and marketing tools

• Writing a content plan

• Tracking, converting and monitoring enquiries

• Blogging

• Email marketing

• Which social media platforms are right for your business

• SEO

The course would be ideally suited for you if we've already worked together on your brand and you're not ready to let us go! It would also work really well for anyone who'd like to learn about creating compelling content and promoting their business with greater integrity and ease, avoiding the sales-y ick.

I'm still working out the finer points of this, but would love to know: what kind of marketing challenges would you like to see covered? Anything in particular you find yourself battling with that we could help you overcome?
