You're busy all week. So why does the money never feel like enough?
The 6-Week Business Mentorship is for service business owners who are tired of working this hard and still guessing. Six weeks with me, your own numbers, and a plan that finally pays you.
Your own number, and a plan to hit it.
This is the kind of number you walk away with. Flip between the two examples to see how it works on your own, or with a team.
- Confident now, guessing before.
- Invaluable.
- Already recommended it to people.
- Much clearer understanding than before.
- Increased prices.
- Definitely knowing the breakeven number.
- All starting to make more sense!

- You check the bank balance before you pay the staff, and hold your breath.
- Everyone gets paid on time. Everyone except you.
- Your stomach drops when a VAT or tax letter lands.
- The diary is full, but you couldn't tell anyone what you actually made last month.
- You've put prices up, apologised for it, and still aren't sure it's enough.
- You lie awake doing sums in your head that never quite add up.
You didn't start your business to feel like this. You started it for freedom, for your family, for something that was yours.
It isn't you. Nobody ever showed you your numbers.
You're brilliant at what you do. But no one hands you a breakeven, a price list that pays you, or a plan for the VAT bill when you open the doors. That's what we're going to fix, together, one number at a time.
Imagine a Monday morning like this
- You know the exact number you need to take this week, and you know you'll hit it.
- Your VAT and tax are already sitting in their own pots. The letter lands and you don't flinch.
- You pay yourself a proper wage, on purpose, every week.
- You raise a price with confidence, because your numbers tell you it's right.
- You can finally switch off in the evening, because the sums add up.
What one member said after her six weeks
Honestly, it's been the best investment I have made for my business since opening four years ago.
It has given me the confidence to make changes that I wasn't confident to do before. I was saying yes to clients and squeezing them in before this, because I didn't know what it took to run the salon. I didn't know if I was charging correctly, what my breakeven was, or if I was making a profit, and I was worried that I wouldn't have money left in the bank after paying bills and staff, let alone not always taking a wage myself.
I now know my breakeven, see my costs clearly, and I'm confident that my pricing is good and not afraid to charge for my work. I am not only taking a weekly wage now, I have given myself a pay rise and signed up to a pension plan. And I am finally seeing money left in my business account at the end of each week.
You also gave me a good nudge to get back posting on socials, and I have a vision for the next 12 to 24 months of where things can grow.

Six weeks with me in your corner
This isn't a course you watch and forget. You get me, the tools, and someone checking in on you every single week.
Access to me for the full six weeks
Stuck on a number, unsure about a price, wondering if you can afford to hire? Email me and I'll help you work it out. You're never doing this on your own.
Live Zoom every Monday at 10am
We work through that week's number together. Every session is recorded, so you can watch it any time that suits you.
Six calculators, built for your business
One for each week, set up for your type of business. Put in your own figures and see your real numbers straight away.
Weekly check-ins with me
Every week I check in on your progress, so you stay on track, keep going and never fall behind.
Your own profit plan
By the end you'll have your weekly target, your pots set up, and a plan you keep using long after the six weeks.
One number a week, one step at a time
Your breakeven
The exact amount you need to take each week to cover every bill and pay yourself properly.
Your prices
Which services earn their place, which are quietly costing you, and prices set from your own figures.
Your team and your time
What your staff truly cost once PRSI and holidays are added. On your own? What an hour of you is really worth.
Your leaks
No-shows, gaps in the diary, freebies, rebooking and retail. What they cost you a year, and how to win it back.
VAT, tax and your wage
Simple weekly pots, so the money is already sitting there when the bill lands.
Your profit plan
Your weekly target, a safety net, profit on top, and a simple way to check it every Monday.

Much more confident. Nice to go back on the calculator and check the numbers. All starting to make more sense!
- Prices raised
- Staff wages sorted
- Got rid of suppliers and services I don't need
- Changes at Xmas, incentives in place
- Stock control to come, sell sell sell
- Upsell where possible
- Charge properly, no discounts
- Staff told of changes to come
Services that I thought with confidence should be making me money, because products are low cost, are actually costing me money.
I think there's a good balance. Although I recommend making the calls, it's great that there's no pressure to make every one. It's all there online, and the support from Catriona if you're ever stuck is always very reassuring.
To be more assertive in my business. Knowing what I need to be doing to make sure my costs are covered, charging properly and knowing my worth. Not all cash is mine, I need to be putting into the bank account for cash flow. So not just one thing but a few rolled into one!!
How much I love the calculator, because it highlights just how much needs to be changed for the better of my business.
Amazing to see the different amounts and calculations on what things are truly costing the business.
Loads of things! Great to get info from other businesses and see people are in the same position as you. I've a great business and staff, just can see now the mistakes I've been making and now can make things better, which is good!
Yes absolutely! Currently working on a new price list and displaying retail differently to promote it to sell quicker.
Much clearer understanding than before.
Definitely knowing the breakeven number.
Increased prices.

Your questions
I'm not a numbers person. Is this for me?
Especially for you. Every calculator tells you exactly what to put in each box, and we go through it together on the Monday call. If you can run a business, you can do this.
What if I can't make Monday at 10am?
Every Zoom is recorded and goes up for you to watch any time that suits you. Your check-ins and access to me carry on whether you watch live or later.
Will this work for my type of business?
Yes. The six numbers work for any service business, from cafes and clinics to personal trainers, tutors and pet groomers. The calculators are set up for your type of business.
I don't have staff. Is week 3 still useful?
Yes. If it's just you, week 3 works out what an hour of your own time is really worth, so you can price properly and decide when it's worth getting help.
When does the next group start?
The next group starts on Monday 4th January 2027. Places are limited, so join the waiting list and you'll hear first when doors open.
What happens after the six weeks?
You keep your profit plan and your weekly target. If you'd like to keep using the calculators every week, you can join Pocket Mentor, my monthly calculators membership.
I know the numbers. I've made them easy.
I've been an entrepreneur for over fifteen years, building businesses from my kitchen table into profitable businesses. I know what it takes to start with nothing but an idea, and how much of running a business happens late at night after everyone else has gone to bed.
I have a First Class Honours degree in Business and Finance, so I know the numbers inside out. But I also know most business owners don't have the time to sit through an accounting course. So I've taken everything I know and made it simple: six numbers, one a week, worked out with your own figures, side by side with me.
Six weeks from now, you'll know exactly where your money goes and exactly how to keep more of it. Come and do this with me.
You can keep guessing. Or you can know.
Six weeks from now you could still be doing sums at midnight, or you could have a number, a plan, and a business that pays you properly.
