Strategic and collaborative support for your small business

Feeling stuck in your business sucks. It makes you question everything: am I doing the right thing? Should I go back to the 9-5? Am I good enough to do this?

But here’s the thing: you are 100% doing the right thing. You just need a helping hand every now and then. And that’s where I come in!

Fora Community Strategy sessions exist to be that guiding voice in the moments of overwhelm and stress. If you’re ready to grow your business sustainably, using the untapped power of community to make your business dreams come true, I’m here to steer you in the right direction.

These sessions are built around you, your business and your goals. Combining your growth ambitions with my extensive experience in events management, community building and marketing strategies, we work together to create a plan that really works for you.

Copy-and-paste strategies and tactics won’t work for your business. Just like you, it’s unique. So it needs a unique strategy, too.

Community building that helps you grow sustainably

Growth doesn’t come easy. It’s no longer enough to set up your website, post on social media every now and then, and wait for the leads and the sales to roll in.

The online world is NOISY. So how can you stand out? How can you compete with the big players, the established names, the businesses with massive marketing budgets?

It’s not impossible. It just needs a little touch of creative magic…

And focusing on community building is the magic wand you need!

Community is where your people come together. Your ideal clients, people who think just like you, people who have the same hopes and dreams and struggles. It’s a safe space where they feel like they belong. And it means you can build deep, meaningful relationships, turning followers into clients and clients into brand cheerleaders.

What we can create together

Events Strategy

Exploring which events would work for your audience, how to begin arranging the logistics of the event, and what you can hope to achieve from your event.

Marketing Strategy

Not sure where your ideal client is hiding? We can dive deep into who they are, what they care about, and how you can find them, online and in person. My approach always begins with compassion, so that we can get a real understanding of what makes your client tick.

Community Building

Should you build a Facebook Group? A Slack channel? An in-person co-working space? An online membership? Using your knowledge of your business and my experience in building engaged and enthusiastic communities, we’ll get clear on where to start.

Whether you’ve got a stagnant Facebook Group or a disengaged email list, we can fix it! Again, with a focus on understanding what makes your audience tick, we can figure out how best to reengage your ideal clients and start nurturing them into paying customers.

Know what you want to do, but getting bogged down in the tech and the logistics? I’ve been there! I’ve managed events with so many different systems and technologies that I’m sure there’s one that’s the perfect helping hand for you. Outsource your tech worries to my brain, and you’ll leave knowing exactly what you need to do.

Here’s what clients say…

Bringing Ece onto the GW team has been nothing short of delightful. She’s a creative, smart, forward-thinking, & a natural community-builder. I’m hiring slow + intentionally, & Ece is proof that’s a good thing.

Ece is the type of community and events manager you want your members to meet on a miserable Monday or when experiencing a problem finding the event (which they won't if she organised it). Ece will always greeting people with a smile and try to help them as if it was solving her own challenge.

Pretty much whatever you want it to do! Building a community looks different for every business.

If your goal is growth, community building can achieve that. If your goal is to build relationships, community building can do that.

You can also book a 1-hour Ask Me Anything session for £90.
