Introducing Flow Mastermind

jakesmallwood_SoF_75

A 6 month programme to enable you to step into your mastery. 

Sustain and scale your facilitation practice with flow, purpose and reputation, so you keep earning well, doing meaningful work, and staying creatively alive without burning out.

Join me, Kirsty Lewis, and a small group of likeminded facilitators,  in the SOF Flow Mastermind where you and your business will grow and flow into master facilitators. 

"The quality of the learning is testament to Kirsty's experience and leadership as well as the way that she leverages the power of the collective - an opportunity to connect with others in similar fields and solve issues together."

Graham

"It’s given me the confidence to grow as a business, put myself out there with decent rates, and see the value in what I offer."

Justin

"I've realised that there are ever increasing levels of professional development available for facilitators. And lots of different routes that I could take."

Kate

I get it. Right now you might be:

Thinking “I love running my own facilitation business, but it sometimes feels like there must be an easier way"

Wondering how other facilitators are finding new clients, pricing their work, or diversifying their services.

Worrying your learning practice is standing still, repeating the same approaches instead of stretching into new ideas and evolving with the shifting market.

Feeling isolated after leaving corporate, missing the buzz of people around you, and learning from your peers.

But here’s the thing: you don’t have to be in business alone.

That sense of isolation, the second-guessing, the questions you can’t quite answer on your own-  they all dissolve when you’re surrounded by a community of facilitators who get it.

After years of running her own facilitation business, Kirsty realised there was a gap: freelancers needed more than simply tips and training -  they needed a place to belong, to grow together, and to build confidence as both facilitators and business owners.

That’s why she created the SOF Collective

What started as an idea has blossomed into a thriving community where you’ll find your people: a space to share ideas, learn continuously, and grow not just as a facilitator, but as a business owner too.

And now she has created the SOF Flow Mastermind

This is a space where you go from flourishing facilitator to being in your flow with your business, with the peers, confidence, and support to make it happen.

The SOF Flow Mastermind is your 360° facilitator’s support system: ideas, skills, and business confidence in one place.

Does this sound like you?

You’re tired of going it alone and want a network of peers who get facilitation and the unique challenges it brings.

You sometimes doubt your business skills or direction and want a safe, ego-free space to share ideas and build confidence.

You’re keen to keep developing your practice through continuous learning and exposure to fresh perspectives.

You want support not just as a facilitator, but also as a freelancer running a business from pricing to positioning.

You believe growth feels better in community than in isolation.

With a mix of hot seat coaching, 1:1 mentoring, masterclasses taught by the experts, we’ll evolve and grow your facilitation business so you can enjoy the fruits that it bears.

The Flow Mastermind will work with the four pillars of CLUB

C

Client

L

Learner

U

You

B

Business

Having supported 100s of trainers and facilitators, it is essential that these four pillars are considered to ensure you have a sustainable, healthy and happy business which generates client impact, a worklife balance and consistent revenue.

Meet Kirsty,

your facilitation Business Mentor and Flow Mastermind coach.

It was the Summer of 2016 and I had just joined a business mastermind. 

I was asked what my current turnover was and I had no idea.  A bit embarrassed, I looked up how much money we had invoiced so far that year.  I remember clearly that I was sat on an overland tube in London and read £380,000.  

I share this number not to blow my own trumpet but to share that I had no comprehension, until that moment, that we had invoiced so much, I was totally unaware of what was going on inside my own business.

Client projects had shown up, I had said yes, pulled different teams together to do the delivery and it all sort of happened without me having any idea on how I got to that point.

I have joined two masterminds in my time and both of them delivered for me.

Each time I got clearer on what SOF stood for, who my client was, what I was offering and where I wanted to head.

I met some of THE best people who have become firm friends and who I still work with today (you are going to get to meet some of them in this mastermind!)

I worked through my business and mindset challenges with people who got what I was talking about.

I left with a renewed sense of purpose, direction, determination and an awesome team who were there for me.

And that’s exactly why I decided to launch my own mastermind, so I can help you to be a better facilitator and sharper business owner.

"SOF has helped me realise the importance of the support from a community of like minded people, as it is lonely running your own business. The ability to share, connect and collaborate has been hugely helpful as I have navigated the freelance and founder training world alone."

Richard

"The SOF collective has been so helpful for realising that there are other people out there trying to do a similar thing."

Seb

"I've realised that there are ever increasing levels of professional development available for facilitators. And lots of different routes that I could take."

How Does it Work?

jakesmallwood_SoF_75

You’ll begin with a group onboarding session in February, followed by your first hot seat coaching call.

From March to July you’ll learn and grow with expert masterclasses on the 1st Monday of the month.

All the curated experts for the Flow Mastermind will work within one of the four pillars of CLUB framework (Client, Learner, U, Business).

I am intentionally bringing together a team of experts who understand what it means to work successfully with corporate clients, write proposals, run a lucrative training business, hype yourself on a daily basis to get visible and attract clients and create workshops with impact so you’re invited back for further projects.

What's included?

For those questions and niggles, ideas and challenges you’ll get access to hot seat coaching.

This is where you will bring your challenges to the table and we work on them together on the 3rd Friday of every month

You’ll also receive 1:1 mentoring from Kirsty, in 2 x one hour mentoring conversations for you to talk about your specific business growth plans, challenges and more at a much deeper level.

You’ll get instant access to a resource library full of templates and in May, you’ll be able to submit your own client proposals, sales pages, training plans and more for review and feedback by Kirsty.

You also get 10% off all SOF gatherings and classes whilst in the mastermind (does not include SOFest).

Finally, you’ll also join your fellow Flow Mastermind group for an in-person day on 30th June in London or location of the groups choosing.

The Investment

PAY IN FULL

£2100 + VAT 6 MONTHS COMMITMENT

PAY MONTHLY

£350 + VAT 6 MONTH COMMITMENT

This is a beta cohort.

That means this is the first time I will be running Flow in this format.

You’ll receive the full experience, support and structure of the mastermind, and in return I’ll be listening closely, refining as we go, and shaping the programme around the real, lived needs of experienced facilitators like you.

Because this is a founding group, the investment is offered at a reduced rate.

Future cohorts will be priced higher once Flow is fully established.

If you enjoy being part of something as it’s being shaped, and value proximity, influence and honest conversation, this cohort is for you.
