Learn With Pickles/1 on 1 Consulting

1 on 1 Solopreneur Consulting

Let me save you SO MUCH TIME Googling  by answering (almost) all your business questions in a fraction of the time, tailored to your business background and your personal values.

Running your own business can be incredibly confusing.

Every day, we ping pong back and forth between getting inspired by new ideas and second guessing if we're doing anything "right".

Do you find yourself..

...excited to try something and then realizing you’re not sure where to start?
....unsure if you’re using your limited time effectively?
....giving up on projects halfway when you run into big roadblocks?
...overwhelmed with all the possible paths to choose from?

I’ve been there, too. 

How would it feel to...

… have confidence you are taking effective steps to grow your business?
… find joy and inspiration instead of stress and guilt?
… implement systems in your business so you can spend time creating instead of doubting?

Introducing: 1-on-1 Solopreneur Consulting

Ongoing support through your business journey via voice messages

I'll help you strategize, prioritize, and grow your small business in a way that works for you. No two people are the same, which means no two businesses are the same— and by working 1-on-1, we get to shape your own path to growth with the priorities that are important to you. We'll meet on video 1x a month and voice chat every week.

How Consulting Works

YOU:
You'll leave me voice messages through Voxer (a free ‘walkie-talkie’ app) with any questions anytime— and I truly mean anytime.

Whether you're in an early 5 AM working session, checking a few things off during a quick 20 minute lunch break, or have thoughts on your commute home, Voxer is always there for you to record your thought process in real-time.

ME:
I'll check in every Monday and/or Thursday morning to listen to all the voice messages you've left me since our last coaching day. I'll then work on replying back to all your questions, editing your email campaign copy on Google Docs, leaving you video feedback for your latest social media post, or anything else you asked me to review and give feedback on. 

I'll check in multiple times throughout that day, and we'll go back and and forth on any topic (or topics!) you'll want to cover that week.

Flexibility that fits you

I like to think of Voxer as an ongoing phone call. We’ll have ongoing communication without the need to plan around busy schedules, which means coaching adapts to your lifestyle. 

Intentional intervals

Instead of the constraint of a scheduled meeting, you’ll implement strategies we discuss into your business at your own pace. Voxer also allows us to pace our conversations so we both have time to think and respond to each other without the immediacy of a scheduled call.

Communication anytime, anywhere

Instead of traditional coaching through set meeting times, ask me questions and process your real-time thoughts with voice messages through the Voxer app. Replay messages when you need a refresher!

Milestone Meet-Up

We'll still meet on video 1x per month we work together so we can get some face-to-face discussion and prioritize goals.

Hi, I'm Kirstie!

I grew my side hobby Etsy shop from a $200 investment to a product business to multi 6 figures in revenue while I worked full-time jobs in design and marketing.  After my small business generated steady and growing profit, I quit my corporate career.

I’ve turned my passion project into a profitable small business with limited time and budget, and I’d love to help you do the same.

Testimonials

"Coaching Calls were informative and valuable for my business growth and I highly recommend Kirstie as a business mentor. The suggestions and feedback given were tailored to my business specifically, which I really appreciated. Her thoughtfulness and experience made for super effective learning. Hire Kirstie! You won't regret it."

—Bea

"I love that we have discussed both short and long term strategies. This has resulted in me experimenting more, allowing more time for the long term strategies so that they can be better evaluated, and removed the pressure of immediate results. Although our products are different, Kirstie’s answers and ideas have worked for my business."

—Hannah

Frequently asked questions

DM me at @learnwithpickles if you have any other questions!

What can you help me with?

I will help you save countless hours and spin off your ideas to expand, save $, and save time in ways you didn't even know existed. My clients have asked me questions like:

  • "Can you review my wholesale linesheet?"

  • "Do you think it's better if I spend $200 on this craft fair, or $200 on wholesale mailer outreach?"

  • "I want to launch a podcast, sell Procreate brush packs, and sell a new product category. I'm passionate about all, but which one should I focus my limited time on?"

  • "Can you look at my website and help me get my conversion rate up with UX ecomm best practices? What are the top most effective things I can change?"

  • "I'm feeling really, really unmotivated this week. Sales are slow and it doesn't seem to be worth it. How can I find motivation to work when I feel like this?"

When will we meet?

We'll have one scheduled video meet each month we work together to get some face time and "live" chatting in. Some clients like kicking off each month with the meeting, some like closing our months together with the meeting to recap.

Why voice consulting?

I've been a small business coach for 3 years now, and have found this is the best use of your investment and our time together. My clients and I love voice coaching and will keep this format for a long time!   

I love using Voxer because it fits into any lifestyle: you can chat with me while you're out running errands or lying on the couch at home. It's a free app and has the ability to play messages at faster speeds, replay messages, as well as send photo, video, and text messages.

How fast will you get back to me?

In general, I check Voxer at least 4x a day from 9-5 (which means you can expect a reply multiple times every coaching day!). You can leave me as many messages as you’d like and I’ll get back to you once I check the app.

What’s the difference between 1x/ week and 2x/ week?

I’ll respond to you on Voxer Monday & Thurs for 2x/ week, and only Mon OR Thurs for 1x/ week.

How do I know we'll be a good fit?

I'm very honest about if I think I can be a good investment for you and your business at your current stage— I want us both to feel great about our time together. I offer a free 20 minute phone call to chat. Here's also a helpful checklist for the type of clients I work best with.

Do you run promotions or sales?

No sales on consulting, but I always have ongoing promotions!
