Making time to work on your business is hard.
Are you ready to nurture it?
Join us February 3-7, 2019
Ready to level up?
More revenue. Better projects. Luxury prices. You want to reach these goals. The question is how to get there.
Traditional coaching takes a long time and makes you do most of the work. Retreats provide inspiration and refill the battery but don't offer a lot of takeaways. Conferences create opportunities with new partners but that's the long-game.
How to Fish Workshop will show you the most direct route to achieve the next level in your business. We all have endless to-do lists and not enough time to work our business.
Come spend dedicated time with an intimate group to start checking off that list.
