WHAT PEOPLE SAY
I have had a few mentoring sessions with Melissa from Thelotco and they have been amazing. Melissa has helped me in all areas of my small business from retail and wholesale sales strategies to product pricing, tips on reaching a wider audience and also has helped me with advertising/marketing content and planning. She has given me strategies in regards to negotiating future collaborations and has introduced me to the options available when I look at expanding to the international market in the future. She has helped me set achievable goals and has also fine-tuned parts of my business that I had previously worked on to make sales more streamlined. When you're working on your own business it is so easy to get stuck on the little things so it's nice to have someone there help you see the bigger picture, to listen, provide you with honest answers and to hold you accountable. She is also just a genuinely lovely person. I can't recommend Thelotco highly enough ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

SHAKE THINGS UP
Challenge yourself, your business, your brand and embrace ‘new & different'. Is what you're doing still valuable in your industry, still profitable? What can you add to your brand offering that will help you grow and excel. Take a risk. Not too big, but risk is good.
FRESH EYES
We see things with fresh eyes. We step into your space, into your zone and review what you're doing and how you're doing it. Are you doing it right for now, for the current market? Have you evolved with your customers (new & old)?
EVOLVE & GROW
If you don’t evolve, make changes and try things differently, we can guarantee you your competitors will. So let us help you grow into a better version of your current self. What worked back then doesn't now. People have changed, our lifestyles have evolved and we now live in a global market, not the Australian market.
So you need to embrace change in order to maintain and grow success.
