By Jena Marie Case Study

I’d like to introduce you to Jena from By Jena Marie. She joined Chromatical Club on the 3rd of March 2020.

I reached out to Jena to see if she’d like to share her results, because I’ve seen her make so many connections in the club and she appeared to be gaining quite a lot of work as a result!

I was curious more so than anything to hear what her experience has been, as I have only seen what I can see!

I couldn’t believe her results.

In just 6 months of membership, she has worked with 15 club members!!! WOWSERS!

Not once has Jena ever ever promoted herself in the club (it’s not the place for that) she has just always helped and supported others when they’ve had questions relevant to her expertise, and this has been the result.

Jena is just one example of how service based businesses can not only gain the value of the club’s marketing support, but also gain clients through genuine connections.

I hope you enjoy reading her club experience.

Why did you join Chromatical Club?

I loved working with Trish 1:1 and I once I scoped out the Club I realised it was something I really wanted to be a part of.

What did you hope to achieve from joining?

I was looking for a bit of a soundboard. Working for yourself is the absolute best but I was really missing was having people to bounce ideas off. I was looking to connect with other business owners and creatives to get advice, share resources and learn.

What were the biggest challenges you hoped the club could help with?

It's the little things!

I love that I can ask a question in the Club about literally anything and someone will have experience with it. It saves me so much time.

Before joining I would spend ages looking for information on blogs, trying to navigate what was advertised content and what was genuine advice. It was mind-numbing!

What has been your prior experience with marketing?

Before joining Chromatical Club I worked with Trish in her 'Borrow My Brain' session. It was an absolute game-changer, not only for the rock-solid advice, but it also shifted my mindset around investing in my business.

When I started out I was super nervous about putting money into the business side, but after getting Trish's outside perspective and seeing the results that came from her expertise I realised how important it was to invest in myself.

How has Chromatical Club helped you?

I've learnt so much!

The videos and challenges are awesome, but I've also learnt so much from other member questions and responses – things I hadn't even thought about.

Has the club helped you more than you expected?

Oh my goodness, yes.

I never expected the level of care and time that Trish puts in, each response she gives is like a personalised blog just for your query.

But not only that, I have loved making connections with other Club members.

What results have you achieved since joining the club?

I have got so much work from the Club – I'm booked out for the next three months!

After being in the Club a couple of weeks I noticed that there was a barrier to entry for small business owners and creatives when it came to getting graphic design.

I decided to create a series of bite-size offers aimed at helping people to level up their branding and social media. It went off!

So far I've worked with 15 Club members on a huge range of exciting projects.

Do you think you'd be where you are now without the club?

I think it would have taken so much longer to get where I am, I can't even imagine.

The combination of working with Trish 1:1, Chromatical Club and coaching from Ami at Craft Coaching and Development has been invaluable.

How would you put a value on what the club has done for you and your business?

I think it's bloody good value! My membership ain't going ANYWHERE.

It's my go to. I find all my marketing info there (and if I can't find it I ask!), the people I want to work with and also support and advice.

I've never experienced anything like it.

What part of the club has surprised you the most?

I've said it before and I'll say it again, Trish puts so much time in!

She is constantly making content and giving clever specific advice.

This is not a set and forget type sitch, she is always there to help.

Who would you recommend the club to?

Small business owners who want to level up and be part of a supportive community.

What do you love about Chromatical Club?

I love learning, and it's such a safe space to ask questions without judgement.

Everyone is so supportive and friendly, and they want to help each other.

I think marketing can have icky connotations of manipulation and trickery, but in this lovely space that Trish has curated everyone genuinely loves what they do and wants to share it with the world in an authentic way.

Lastly, can you tell us a little more about your businesses and where we can find you online?

I'm a graphic designer and illustrator who creates bright, bold and colourful design solutions for small businesses with big dreams.

I'm all about making design accessible and creating lasting relationships with my clients built on trust, collaboration, encouragement and of course, whiz-bang design!
