MARKETING MENTORING SERVICE – CHERRYAID MARKETING

Imagine being able to consult with a marketer — and move past your marketing conundrums.

Without the big price tag.

In business, a little help — and accountability — can go a long way. That’s how my marketing mentoring clients feel.

You’re out there, and you’re marketing your business — posting on social media, using email software, and even dabbling in posting the odd blog post.

You’re happy doing marketing your way — and that’s great! But wouldn’t it be nice if you could check in with a marketer for some valuable input, support, and even mentorship?

Call me your marketing mentor

Whether you’re frustrated with marketing software or need to bounce ideas off an expert, there is an answer.

You may be thinking, but I don’t have the budget for marketing strategy or support services. That’s okay. This is where marketing mentoring comes in.

Flexible, easy on the budget, and highly effective at solving those marketing niggles, I mentor clients on everything from social media content to planning their latest lead magnet.

Book marketing mentoring sessions to suit your diary & budget

Marketing mentoring is there to fill that marketing-shaped gap in your knowledge and confidence. Tailored to your business, you’ll work with me 1:1 to focus on what matters to you and your business. From training and guidance, to brainstorming ideas and problem solving, this is your opportunity to get expert marketing insight — at a realistic price point.

You can choose: a one-off session,  ongoing monthly mentoring, or a focused 3 month package.

One off mentoring session

  • Schedule a 2-hour one-to-one session at a time and date that suits you.
  • Opt for an online session or meet in person.
  • Enjoy 2 x 15-minute follow-up calls as part of your booking. This allows me to address any queries you have after the session or to check in on your progress, keeping you accountable!

Small business owners, start-ups and entrepreneurs across any industry who are comfortable with their own marketing but would like a helping hand and a nudge in the right direction.

You could be struggling with a specific issue — like your Google Analytics or email marketing platform — or simply wish to get some general reassurance and advice from a marketing expert.

£415 for a 2-hour session (2 x 15 minute follow-up calls included).

Ongoing marketing mentoring

Ideal if you’re looking for regular support, accountability and expert input — without hiring someone in-house.

This is for business owners who want someone in their corner to help them think things through, sense-check ideas, keep marketing moving, and stop everything sitting in the “I really need to sort that” pile.

Whether you need help untangling a problem, planning your next steps, or simply getting things done consistently, I’m there alongside you.

  • We start with a 2-hour deep-dive session to look at your business, your marketing, and where you’re trying to get to
  • Then we keep things going with either:
  • Weekly 30-minute check-ins
  • Or a 1-hour session every two weeks
  • All sessions are online and flexible around your schedule
  • You’ll also have light-touch support between sessions if you get stuck or need a quick check on something
  • Small business owners and founders who want regular marketing support without hiring a full-time team
  • Businesses juggling lots of ideas, priorities and moving parts
  • People who need someone to sense-check plans, troubleshoot problems, and keep them accountable
  • Business owners who are capable of doing their marketing — but know it’s easier when they’re not trying to figure everything out alone

You might need help planning a launch, reviewing your emails, improving your social media, or just working out what’s worth focusing on next.

£385 per month

Includes your initial 2-hour deep-dive session plus ongoing mentoring check-ins.

No long-term contracts — just ongoing support that works around your business and what you need help with.

“Any time spent with Gill is not wasted.

“She has a wealth of knowledge and experience to share with small business owners such as myself.

Her advice about the best ways I could manage my customer journey has meant that I’ve been able to automate more processes which in turn saves me time, and means that my customers get a much more consistent and organised response from me.”

- Sally Smith - I’m Worried About Mum

Meet Gill Bishop — that’s me!

A professional marketing de-muddler

I create marketing strategies and then make them happen — so your marketing isn’t just planned, it gets done and brings in business.

I’m also mum to a teenager, dog mum to two (very opinionated but fluffy) dogs, and usually found with a brew in hand keeping all the plates spinning.

I started out studying art, but I ended up in a PR agency at 19 instead. Slight change of direction… but clearly the right one!

These days, I bring that mix of creativity and practicality into the work I do — helping business owners make sense of their marketing and get it done, without it taking over their time or headspace.

QUESTIONS ABOUT MARKETING MENTORING

FAQs

If you don’t see your question here, or simply would like some more information before booking, enquire here — and I’ll come back to you as soon as possible.

The 2 hours allow for a quick 5-minute catch-up at the start before we get into the session. In the session, I need to understand what you want to achieve. It also gives us plenty of time to really delve deep into the subject or training and allows time for you to ask questions, too. Don’t worry, we can absolutely have a (tea) break half-way through.

Yes, of course. Online sessions are always available. I work on Teams for these sessions.

Before the session, I’ll be in touch with a pre-session check-in form. It’s designed to help you get the most from your session. I may give you some homework between sessions to keep you on track (and accountable — because it works well that way!).

The follow-up calls can be on the phone or online. They’re an opportunity for us to review how things have been going since our session and for you to ask any additional questions that may have come up after the session.

If it’s an online session, I can record it and send you the link so you can review it. If appropriate, I’ll also send any additional materials (such as templates, how-to guides etc.) that will help you in-between sessions.
