"This experience was next-level for my business!"

"I came in knowing I had the skills but wasn’t quite sure how to play the game in the corporate world under my own steam. I’ve spent years working in corporate coaching—but always for other people. Tom has given me a clear, actionable way to shift from relying on others for work to generating my own. Tom’s whole approach to positioning, relationship-building, and the 'guinea pig' sprint method blew my mind. It’s simple, strategic, and—most importantly—it’s actually already working.

Since doing the program, I’ve tightened up my offers, completely revamped my messaging, and built a process that makes attracting my own corporate clients a natural next step. I now have a clear, repeatable way to bring in high-value clients without overcomplicating things. Tom’s advice has helped me move fast, keep things fun, and trust that I know what I’m doing.

I’ve come away from this with clients who’ve received real value in a 2 week period. Clarity on their message, technical tools on delivery and the ability to express themselves with emotional depth giving them the felt sense of the importance of their work. Corporate people LOVE this approach! And as a result of a good time had by all and actual value given, my clients have been more than keen to offer referrals without me having to ask. If you’re an artist coach looking to crack the corporate world, this is hands-down the best shortcut you’ll find."

"In the past, I would have felt shy about reaching out to corporate clients."

"But seeing how you frame your reach-outs to clients--and remembering that regardless of the price tag, I am, in fact, offering a highly valuable service!!!--is helping me feel braver about doing those reach-outs myself. It's still a little scary, but getting easier. (And I'll definitely be asking for your specific help on this when we meet next week, Tom!) Some of the momentum is showing up in how I'm arranging services with other clients in my practice. I just talked to an ongoing accent client about transitioning to asynchronous work because I think it's what he needs now--he actually needs the reps and feedback throughout the week, and the model of meeting an hour a week isn't actually so useful for his particular needs.So while he's not at all a corporate client, I'm definitely feeling some overall momentum around shaking up some other working models in my practice beyond the corporate coaching. 

After implementing the 4-session format I learned in this program, my client landed in a really solid place and I think felt great about our work together. For example, one of the major (so simple) notes I gave her in session three was around her rate being too fast across the board. She beautifully corrected it for both the recording she sent between sessions and in the final run-through of session 4. She also noted that she got to hear a podcast interview she recorded right before we started working and that she really noticed the pacing being too fast in the interview. I highly suspect this relationship will expand into more work together, and that there's real potential about expanding into her org, too."

"Thank you Tom for... being so generous with your insights and methods. " 

I have throughly enjoyed the experience and though I haven’t been particularly vocal in the chat I have followed closely and really feel like I have benefitted hugely from our community. Thank you to those of you who posed exactly the right questions to our benevolent leader! Tom, I was full of trepidation going into this experience, however it has been a joy. I have loved being a professional audience member, really understanding the virtues of ‘going with my gut’ in terms of guiding my guinea pigs and using the very clear but flexible system you provided for us. My wee pigs have discovered new and exciting things about themselves and their voices and have both felt truly empowered by the experience - as have I. Wishing everyone luck with their future endeavours! Thank you Tom for doling out courage left right and centre and being so generous with your insights and methods. It’s golden
