NUMBERS & GOALS

6 Months Of Virtual Meetings, Voxer Access, and One On One Coaching With An In-Person Retreat

We Cover...

Knowing your numbers is the first step to understanding how to design your prices to best fit your needs for both everyday life and in your business. Once you deep dive into your numbers then we will work together to create goals to push you forward.

6 IN REAL TIME lESSONS + Q & A

We will go through each lesson shared above in a virtual call together so that the group can ask questions as they come. This allows us to customize the curriculum based on the groups needs and give you the most impactful experience.

GUEST CALLS WITH SPECIALISTS

Throughout the course of the 6 months we will have guest speakers visit us to share their expertise. In the past, we have had guest wedding planners, SEO experts, and album sales specialists.

HOT SEATS

A hot seat is a time when you get to ask any questions about things that you're working on in your business with the entire group. If you'd like to look over your prices together, let's do it. If you'd like to talk through your website, your email templates, your workflows, you name it and we can discuss it during your hot seat together.

ONE ON ONE CALLS

Everyone in the mastermind will have two one hour 1 on 1 calls with Courtney. This will be a time to ask questions, go through your systems, set goals, overcome mindset blocks, and dig deep into where you can focus your time to begin setting yourself up for growth and success.

COMMUNITY

Since this mastermind is application only, we are sure to accept people who are ready to level up in their business. We are also looking for people who have a strong desire to serve their couples. This helps to create an incredible community and bond in the group. Through calls and Voxer we have seen friendships blossom.

UNLIMITED PERSONALIZED COACHING

Unlimited Voxer both with the group and one on one is included in the experience. You're always welcome to email me questions. We sometimes receive galleries to review, emails to help write, collections to tweak, and so much more. I am here for you as your coach and ready to help you confidently move forward in your business.

THE RETREAT

A two day in person retreat will happen at the end of the 6 month experience! We will hold in person hot seats and cover a variety of educational topics to wrap up the experience.
Lodging and meals are included.

- Blak

I 1000% think it was the best decision I could have made for my business & would do it again. She instilled more confidence in myself so that I could raise my prices. This has helped me create a sustainable business that can support itself.

- Zoe

The best thing I've done for my business. I have grown in ways I've never thought possible. Having a group and an amazing educator to help push me and hit practical goals has really changed my mindset and my overall business.

NEVER THOUGHT POSSIBLE

I was looking for more than a video course...I wanted more personalized coaching. I felt like we always had access to the group and Courtney to help answer questions. I had the accountability to meet goals I set for the business.

Before the mastermind I didn't know how to build a business up as the owner. I was overwhelmed. Realizing all of the back end details of running a business, instead of figuring out how to do it on my own, I joined the mastermind.

Now I feel that Courtney has given me all the tools to be able to run my business successfully. Along with a new found passion and dream to take my business in directions I never thought were possible.

Before the mastermind I had no idea if I could make my wedding photography business a career and I had a lack of confidence in my artist ability. I didn't know what direction to take or how to push and grow myself.

Having been in the mastermind for three rounds I feel like I can look back and absolutely say I am a different person and different photographer and someone who has confidence and can see where my business is going to take care of me both financially and joyfully.

We will deep dive into all of your numbers. Income, expenses, goals, and necessities to keep going. Then we will build a plan that sets you on the track to success. Knowing your numbers is the first step towards building a truly successful business.

KNOWING YOUR NUMBERS

From how to gather more inquiries to how we carefully respond from the moment they land in our inbox. We will walk you through what allowed us to fill our calendars year after year at higher and higher investments while serving couples really well and being mindful of our time.

INQUIRY PROCESS

We have created a custom collections system that not only serves our couples well, but also presents them with options that gracefully allows them to level up their experience with us. We will walk you through this process along with a variety of ways that you can test it out and implement what works for you in your business. 

CUSTOM COLLECTIONS

From your website, overall brand, Instagram, Tik-Tok, Facebook, Pinterest, blogging, SEO, and more. There are so many pieces and parts that allow you to show up and attract your ideal couples. We will walk  you through all of them and discuss an abundance of ideas to implement to level up.

ONLINE PRESENCE

From systems in your workflow, to how to touch base with your couples, when to send emails, what to say, and how to communicate properly, these tools will set you and your clients up for success. Your couples will be well educated and know when and what to expect to set them up for the best wedding day experience. 

CLIENT EXPERIENCE & WORKFLOWS

Our business is centered all around service. At the end of the day, your relationships with the vendor team can make or break the overall experience for your couple. And news flash, your job is to serve... YOUR COUPLE. Let's deep dive into how we intentionally serve the entire team well to create the best outcome for our couples.

VENDOR RELATIONSHIPS

We so often get caught up in the "timeless" must have shots that we get stuck looking similar to everyone else around us. We are going to push past the norm, actively seek inspiration, then take that motivation and create practical steps to bring it to life on a wedding day. Let's push beyond consistency, stop playing it safe & help you create a signature style.

Students' Experiences

Based in their hometown in Ohio (where the two were high school sweethearts!), they now travel coast to coast photographing elevated destination weddings & engagements for their kind-hearted couples in love. Guided by their one core principle—to find their people, and love them well— these two former music teachers have grown their business from a $25 mini-session side hustle into a powerhouse brand, now commanding over $12,000 a wedding. Still teachers at heart and fueled by the desire to help other photographers build sustainable, servant-hearted businesses that last, they founded The Graceful Gathering Conference in 2020 which has hosted hundreds of photographers from all over the country. They have since gone on to launch their six-figure Mastermind and Coaching programs, continuing to pour into their people… all while showing them that it IS possible to work hard and build a balanced life you love.
