The Business Shed

Our online monthly business growth club

The Business Shed is our online business growth club, bringing together strategy, business skills and insights and accountability with a creative, practical approach to help you grow your business.

The Shed gives members focused, dedicated time to work on their business every month. it is packed with ideas and tools that we have designed to help you run and grow your business, in a creative, simple, effective way.

Business Shed membership includes:

  • A monthly 90 minute Shed session, where we share a new skill or tool for your business owners tool kit and you will get time to focus on your strategy and prioritise your growth actions, with some accountability thrown in for good measure. All the tools have a creative approach to help you think differently about your business.

  • Shed45. New members can book a Shed45 at any point in their membership – a 45 minute 1-2-1 session with Jodie on a business topic of your choice

  • There are five Sheds to chose from each month, running the same content – so you can just pick the one that suits you best as your home Shed (depending on capacity). And there is flexibility to attend another Shed meeting if you cannot attend your home Shed, plus access to the meeting recording.

  • Open Shed sessions three times a month. This is an optional one hour monthly online session where members are invited to pop in, ask questions, check in with their actions or just meet other members.

  • Quarterly Dig Deeper sessions. Every quarter in place of an Open Shed is a Dig Deeper session - a creative, practical workshop on a business growth topic

  • Annual strategic planning. In the last quarter of the year, we work on a full strategic review and plan for the next year, so you can really start the new year with clarity and momentum.

The Business Shed is a great place for small business owners to come together, have time each month to move their business forward, get accountability, and inject new thinking and practical ideas into their approach.
