What We’ll Explore

Each session includes three parts, bringing together learning, practical feedback, and connection.

Learn Something New

A short presentation on a practical design, marketing, or business topic.

Every month I’ll share ideas, insights, and practical tips to help you improve how your business looks, communicates, and connects with people.

Some of the topics we’ll cover:

  • What makes a website work?
  • Is your visual presence communicating the right message?
  • Creating social media content that connects.
  • How to communicate what you do clearly.
  • Design mistakes that could be weakening your marketing.
  • Turning business ideas into something people can see and understand.

Bring Your Design & Marketing Challenges

Get a fresh perspective on something you’re working on.

Have a website you’re unsure about? A social media post that isn’t quite working? A design decision or marketing question you can’t figure out?

Bring it along. I’ll share my professional perspective, ask questions, and help you think through possible solutions. The group can join the conversation and share ideas, too.

You don’t need a finished project or a perfectly formulated question. Just bring something you’d like another pair of eyes on.

Meet, Share & Connect

Get to know other business owners and discover new opportunities.

We’ll make time for introductions and conversation so you can share what you do, hear about others, and discover who you might want to connect with.

You might meet a potential collaborator, find a service you’ve been looking for, exchange ideas, or make a connection that continues long after the session.

Making introductions and bringing the right people together is something I love, and it’s an important part of Open Studio Live.

Hadassah Levy Digital Marketer, I-point Media

That was a very nice workshop, you spoke very nicely and clearly, the presentation was easy to follow, very well done. I had an idea who my ideal client was but as you were talking,  your workshop made me think there is a way that i can expand what I am doing that I already love and of a new direction i want to go in.
