The 2019 Awesome Marketing Planner System
“So last night I did my numbers for October. This is not something that I ever did, it’s only coz it’s written in the planner. And I have hit 4 figures this month. FOUR FIGURES, people!!!! I’m over the moon. This is the first time in the history of my business that I have done this. Thank you Claire & the group for all your help and advice.”
Halima Kheshav“Bought the planner for the first time this year. Started with targets and vision board. Had a home-based business making celebration cakes alongside a full time job (and mum of 4) beginning of the year was looking at 8-10 sales a month, averaging at about £300-£500. In September I got the keys to my new Bakery and Cafe and have been steadily taking nearly £6000 a month. I would never have done it if i wasn’t holding myself accountable EVERY day. And that’s all down to your planner”
Kate Ledger“Today is the end of an AVON campaign – my Team has made amazing sales and as a Team this will be the biggest group sales I have had. Personally this has been my best campaign this year and there are still 2 campaigns before Christmas. Getting my planner and goal books have definitely helped me focus and get on with doing not just thinking of doing . Thanks Claire.”

How To Get More Control Over Your Sales
I was chatting to a lady the other day and she said ‘Claire, this business is bad for my nerves and my blood pressure. One day it’s fine, I have money in the business and then within days it’s all gone on staff costs, supplies and other bills. Then we have a quiet period with no money coming in and no idea when it will start again.
