Mentoring and 121s for non-writers and professional services
No one’s good at everything. Fact. And if you’re a decent accountant, lawyer, architect or financial advisor, there’s a chance that writing isn’t the kind of thing you enjoy doing. But… writing effectively will help you create stronger relationships with your clients and co-workers, grow your profile and drive more business.
My 121 sessions are designed to give you focused support on the areas you need help with. They’re informal, efficient and packed with insight. They also qualify as CPD.
Here are some of the ways I’ve helped past clients:
– Sharing how to plan, research and write effective (i.e not cringy) thought-leadership content – blogs, articles, social media posts – to support a new (or desired) role.
– Support with writing more concisely, quickly or confidently.
– Creating a content plan and creating templates and plans for suitable social media posts
– Learning how to research articles and e-books
– Refining your LinkedIn profile so it’s punchier and more interesting for potential clients.
These are relaxed and helpful sessions and can be whatever you want them to be! I can work with you and – if appropriate – your manager to ensure we cover all your learning objectives so that these sessions represent an excellent use of your time and training budget.
Do you need training and mentoring for your team?
I provide structured CPD and workshops for teams which you can read about here.
What can you expect from a mentoring or 121 for non-writers?
I like to keep these informal, but find it’s easiest to follow a set process.
1. You get in touch and book a free, no-obligation 15-minute chemistry call.
2. We hold our chemistry call, and if you’d like to go ahead, we agree on a date for your 121.
3. You let me know what you want to talk about and send me files, drafts, website copy etc so I can prep in readiness for our call.
4. We hold our call via Google Meet.
5. After the call I send you the recording for your reference, together with a follow-up email detailing the key points of our discussion.
How much does a mentoring or 121 for non-writers cost?
An hour-long session is £120. Book three sessions for £300 and save £20 per session.
I recommend a free, no-obligation 15-minute ‘chemistry call’ before your first session to make sure we’re both comfortable working with one another.
