Business & Executive Coach for Creatives
For creatives, it's not enough to only work 'in' their businesses by solely focusing on the creative output; it's equally important to work 'on' their businesses. This means strategising for growth, optimising operations, and ensuring sustainability in a competitive market.
A business and executive coach becomes an invaluable asset. By partnering with a coach, creatives can gain the necessary guidance to refine their business models and adopt strategies that not only drive profitability but also foster long-term growth. Coaches help direct their efforts toward critical business elements that maximise efficiency and profitability, ensuring that they can keep up with market demands and stay ahead of industry trends, all while continuing to fuel their creative passions.
Bespoke and Personalised Coaching for Creatives
Creatives often possess incredible talent and vision but struggle with the business aspects of their crafts. Many creatives find challenges in areas like pricing, profitability, product development, marketing, and establishing efficient business processes.
Navigating the competitive and rapidly changing landscape of the media industry requires more than just artistic skill. It demands a strategic approach to business management that includes refining your unique style, identifying new market segments, and developing effective pricing strategies to enhance profitability.
With over forty years of business experience and more than seven years specialising in coaching, I bring a wealth of knowledge tailored specifically to help creatives overcome these challenges. In our coaching sessions, we will tackle issues like adapting to new technologies, responding to shifting consumer preferences, and adjusting to the dynamic demands of the media landscape. Together, we’ll focus on strategies that not only sustain but grow your creative business in a way that aligns with your artistic vision and market opportunities.

Reviews from my business and executive coaching clients
Stuart Gardiner. Brass Tacks Design London Ltd
"I approached Jason during a financially challenging period, seeking help to restructure my business. Over the course of six months, his impact has been profound. Thanks to his guidance, I have regained my confidence and ambition, and I've attracted more new clients than I ever imagined possible. Jason doesn't offer an easy ride; he challenges you and asks tough questions, which are crucial for identifying necessary changes in your business. His analytical approach, combined with years of real-world business experience, has provided invaluable insights and strategies. I highly recommend Jason to anyone looking to enhance profitability, sharpen their focus, and transform their mindset for the better!"
Antoinette Chappell. Managing Director. ARC Writing and Translation Services.
"I have been working with Jason for six months and in that time I have learnt so much and developed a lot as a person and business owner. What do I like best about working with Jason? His approach to business mentoring, which is both friendly and professional and full of valuable insights into how to successfully run and grow a business. Jason has finely-tuned listening skills and an ability to input information, process it and then output a suggestion that I would never have considered. This means he can drop a career-changing bombshell that ignites a spark that leads to a revolutionary new idea that will transform your life and business forever. He challenges my perception of what I can and can’t achieve, stretching the boundaries of what I thought was possible to the point that the sky is literally the limit! Every time I meet him I come away with my mind buzzing with new exciting ideas about how to improve my business in ways that seem obvious afterwards, but would never have occurred to me on my own. I value his contribution to my business very highly and would happily recommend his services to other businesses that need a fresh approach and guidance from someone with extensive experience of a wide variety of businesses from different sectors."
James Gasson. Third Circle Recordings.
"It seems to me that, for many people, working for yourself can be lonely, confusing and frustrating. After all, we’re good at doing the thing we’re good at, but not necessarily at knowing how to formulate that into a workable, competitive business. I was stuck in this position for many years, not quite confident enough to put my foot down properly, and never sure of the destination were I to do so. Working with Jason has begun to change all that. He has offered direction, focus, and an endless well of positivity, things that have been sorely lacking during my years of struggle and self doubt. His guidance has given me a level of confidence that helps me to stay motivated, even in the face of challenges under which I would otherwise have surely felt defeated, and for that I am extremely grateful. I highly recommend Jason if, like me, you are feeling determined but lost. I look upon our journey with great excitement and readiness, and can’t wait to see where it leads. Five stars indeed."
