About this Event

Where specialists, freelancers, and small business owners come together to get unstuck - and move forward. The Knowledge Room is an open space to pick each other’s brains and support each other. Just bring your laptop, current challenges, and any burning questions!


Whether you're a coach, copywriter, virtual assistant, or creative designer you’ve likely hit a few roadblocks in your business. Maybe you're deciding on a pricing change, struggling with visibility, or trying to figure out your next step.


Let’s fix it together in a room full of people who know their stuff, and are ready to swap insights, share ideas, and help each other move forward.


We'll each have a chance to share:

  • What we’re stuck on
  • What we can help others with

You’ll leave with practical ideas, contacts, and probably a few "why didn’t I think of that?" moments.


Examples of who might be in the room:

  • Social media specialist
  • Web designer
  • Business coach or strategist
  • Finance expert
  • Brand Photographer
  • Copywriter
  • ...and more

What to expect…

  • Light structure to keep things flowing
  • A welcoming space to connect and collaborate - there’s no such thing as silly questions!
  • Bring your business cards and any sample products you have to share with others
  • Tea, coffee, and pastries
  • Plenty of time for idea-swapping, co-working, and meeting new people!

This is for you if:

  • You’re self-employed and juggling all the hats
  • You’re generous with your knowledge and open to learning
  • You want to invest in specialist help but you’re not sure where to start or who is the best person to ask

Spaces are limited - reserve your spot!
