Booking for Summer 2023 ✹

 How many of these things feel relevant to you?

✔︎ You’ve got big dreams for your design business but need clarity and direction to get there

✔︎ You are constantly working on design projects that don’t fill you with joy

✔︎ You want your design business to be sustainable, enjoyable AND reaching your income goals

✔︎ You want the flexibility you signed up for when you started your business, but it doesn’t seem to be happening

✔︎ You have amazing ideas and plans but hold yourself back with mindset blocks

✔︎ You love the work you create but can’t seem to connect with those dream clients with your marketing

 

What if I told you all of this is possible for you and your design business?

  • Niketa, Studio Iris

    Working with Cat has been great, having something to go through different parts of the business and strategise was exactly what I needed to take my business to the next level! We ironed out my process to free up time, I worked out a schedule so I’m no longer overworked and overwhelmed and I increased my income from the first session!

  • Ellie, Joyful Creative

    When I started working with Cat, I was working full-time dreaming of working for myself. Now, I’m running my business full-time, booked out for two months in advance and working with dream clients. I also feel in control and confident with my business rather than my business running me and I can't thanks Cat enough for that!

  • Becky, Becky Wood Creative

    Before working with Cat I was saying yes to every project just to make some money and in a constant burnout cycle. After our work together, I feel like a business owner rather than a freelancer. I have taken control over my business and I no longer let my clients run my life. I'm much clearer on my boundaries and I'm just a much happier business owner!

ABOUT YOUR MENTOR

Hey, I’m Cat!

I’ve spent the last eight years running Gatto and testing every method to scale and develop - whilst helping designers like you do exactly the same. I've gone from:

  • Feast and famine income cycle

  • Working 24/7 and constant burnout

  • Spending hours each week on admin and tasks I hated

  • Taking on any enquiry that came in

To:

  • Sustainable five-figure monthly income

  • Dreamy high-ticket design clients only

  • Building multiple income streams

  • Creating the space to work 2-3 days a week and take 3 months off per year

And not only that, I’ve done it in a way that feels authentic and natural for me.

What can we work on together?

✹ Working out the perfect pricing structure to reach your income goals

✹ Attracting only dream clients with intentional content planning and creation

✹ Finding and bringing to life the perfect workweek that works around your life

✹ Creating the perfect client process and automations to feel in control and organised

✹ Identifying and knocking down crippling mindset blocks to push forward with your goals

✹ Finding your perfect big picture goals for your business and making a plan to get there your way

✹ Working through comparison with other business owners to take control and do things your own way

✹ Building a ladder of services and/or additional income streams to grow your earning potential

✹ Establishing your expertise through your marketing and building your CEO mindset and confidence

✹ Outsourcing or building a team effectively to create your dream business

Let me answer your questions!

  • This is for you to decide! What feels most relevant to how you feel right now? Where are you being pulled? Follow your intuition and drop me an email if you want to chat more

  • I love working with all types of designers! Some examples of past clients are web designers, stationers, graphic designers, product designers, embroidery artists and pattern designers. If you feel like I’m the right mentor for you, and we share the same values, we would work wonderfully together!

  • That's for you to decide! Before taking the leap and working with me as your coach, I recommend going through all of the free materials I offer to make sure we have the same values and you like the way I work! Head to the Daring Designers page to sign up for my newsletter, read some blog posts and watch my video workshops.

  • Voxer is a voice-note app which allows me to chat with my clients in between sessions and tune in when you have big breakthroughs, questions and any sticking points along the way.

  • This is entirely up to you, what your version of success looks like, and the work you are willing to put into our time together.

    I will give you my expertise, guidance and non-judgemental care and in return, I would love for you to be open and do the hard work that is required behind the scenes!

  • All 1:1 clients get access to my mentoring membership, The Clubhouse and any programs I’m running whilst we work together as a standard, as well as the calls and/or Voxer access you get with the package you choose! This means you can get access to all the knowledge and strategy in your own time so we can focus on your personal goals and journey with our time together.

  • My next availability is shown at the top of this page! I generally book my coaching slots a couple of months in advance so keep your eyes peeled for these opening on my email list or Instagram.

  • I love keeping a close relationship with past coaching clients so make sure you keep me updated with your wins on Instagram!

  • Sam, Sam Jayne Design

    My sessions with Cat were so valuable and I wouldn’t be where I am today without her! She has guided me with her own knowledge and experiences but also let me find my own ways that work. Since we started working together, I’ve managed to raise my prices, create more consistent income and launch a successful Kickstarter for a dream product!

  • Aisling, Pretty Content

    I thought I wanted a refresh, but working with Cat ended up being a total game-changer for me and my business. I've found the direction that I want to take my work, in a way that feels really natural to me and I've had a major mindset shift in terms of what I am capable of. Cat was a fantastic mentor, who takes the time to understand your needs as an individual and she doesn't try to force anyone down a single path – I was able to work on my business in a way that feels authentic to me individually.

  • Gemma, Good Launch

    It’s been so amazing working with you Cat - I feel like I've come on leaps and bounds in terms of clarity within my business and I have the confidence to launch a crazy but amazing idea of mine. I can't thank Cat enough for sharing all her knowledge with me and helping me realise that I actually can create the life I've always dreamed about - both in business and in life. It means the world!
