![Hi! If you're new round here, I'm Claire...
...and I like cocktails and long walks on the beach... no, wait! That's not where I was going with this. Let's try that again.
I’m a ghostwriter, writing mentor and digital education specialist from Devon in England. And I support entrepreneurs and small business owners in turning their expertise and stories into books and digital education products.
I get such a buzz out of talking to people about their passions, their special pockets of genius, their gifts and their stories. And I am privileged to be able to make that a pivotal part of my work. It's what I do; I listen, I question and, once I understand you and your business goals a bit better, I support you with the steps and structure you need to create the end result (books and digital courses) that you dream of.
Stick around this week to find out how to write your own epic about page, what that has to do with your books and courses (and to hear about my mentorship program launch).
Want some quick short term support on creating your course or writing your book? Then book a consultation session with me starting at just £100 (link in bio @claire_collis_ ).
Oh, and I actually do like cocktails and long walks on the beach, in case you're interested.

If you’re working on your brand personality I’d recommend heading over to @freshpages.co and having a look at the free quiz Melody has created for exactly that.
Melody also had this to say about our work together; “within just an hour of consultation, we worked out a concrete action plan that I can now use for building my course. Plus Claire’s sense of humour makes her such a fun person to work with.”
If you’re interested in working with me my services range from simple 45 minutes consultations to longer term mentorship programs. For more details click the link in my bio.]()

It’s so easy to think that there is a “right” way to do things. That you need to jump on the latest social media bandwagon. That you have to follow “THE RULES” if you want to create an online course or write a book.
But those “rules” only apply if you are doing something the in the exact way defined by those rules. For example, if you want to publish with a traditional publishing house then you are on their turf, their rules will apply and guide your work. But if you are self publishing you get to choose how you do things. Yes, it is always going to be worth getting expert advice but the final decisions on how you do things are down to you. Your business, your rules, your choice.
P.S. this quote was from one of The Tribe Online member calls, where Stacey was sharing her epic vision behind the creation of @thetribecoworks]()

First drafts, first attempts at course design, first webinars, first video recordings are usually not what you were aiming for but they are an important part of the process.
We learn from them, shape our ideas and test out our processes. So, even when it seems like it sucks just give it a go and be kind to yourself!
(Someone remind me of this next time I’m trying to avoid filming something please!)

This post is going to be emotional and gushy, you have been warned!
Almost a year and a half ago I met @_rubylee_ in Lisbon for the first (I think?) of her Red Carpet Days and last week, after being in her mastermind for a year, I had my final 1:1 coaching session with her - for now at least...
I can honestly say that I would not have the fab, perfect for me, business that I have now without her support and guidance. When we started working together I had a very different business, in a very different niche. It was the sensible business for me, based on my past experience, but it wasn’t bringing me any joy.
Writing brings me joy. And some how (it kind of still feels like a dream) that is what I do now. I write. It took me a while to own that label. A while to let go of the old business. A while longer to see that my passion had potential as a business. And a a bit longer still to form my ideas into a fully functioning new business. But Ruby guided me through all of it in a way that was best for me.
Thank you Ruby so much for being you, for showing me how to be brave and to trust my gut in business. Can’t wait for the day when we can finally hang out at your postponed retreat. Lots of love xxx
P.S. this was the most hilarious photoshoot ever!]()
