Sign up here for this Marketing Bootcamp.
Don’t forget that professional development is typically tax-deductible for your business. Due to the small group size, and limited capacity, we will not be able to offer any refunds or cancellations.
Do I have to be a Hivery member to participate?
No. But we hope you’ll join as The Hivery community is chock full of brilliant humans who want to support each other’s businesses and marketing efforts.
In fact, I think one of the best marketing tactics you can employ is to join a kind-hearted group like ours who would love to know about your talent. You’ll also enjoy the full menu of personal and professional resources like member-only networking events (IRL and virtual), member-only co-working events (IRL and virtual), access to the community board, member search, and a packed calendar of Mastermind Courses, How To sessions, and Group Coaching Sessions designed to support your success. Plus, we’ll encourage you to use The Hivery Member Community Board to market your business to our community.
Will the bootcamp be offered virtually or in-person?
For this round, we’ll be doing the daylong bootcamp program in-person at a gorgeous location in Southern Marin. If you’re traveling in for the day, we can recommend hotel accommodations.
The 1:1 private Marketing and Action Plan Audit will be on Zoom after the daylong (and after your homework is complete) so we can review what you’re planning.
Who is this Marketing Bootcamp for? Does this bootcamp only apply to service-based businesses?
This marketing bootcamp has been designed for business owners of any type (founders, coaches, consultants, nutritionists, graphic designers, jewelry designers, you name it!) who are selling something or who are ready to market and sell something. This class works for service-based offerings and product-based businesses, too.
Who should not take this class?
Anyone who doesn’t want to take action. I’ll teach you what works and what doesn’t and give you everything you need to create your marketing plan. But, I can’t do the work for you. It’s like the gym. I’ll show you how to use the weights, but you’ll actually have to pick them up. Designing a robust marketing plan takes time and will need to be revisited throughout the year, but you’ll have the know-how and best practices to create a solid marketing plan and implement smart tactics.
Join me at The Hivery Marketing Bootcamp on April 26th!
During The Hivery Marketing Bootcamp, I’m here to support you in your marketing success – understanding where you are currently, giving you the best practices that I’ve utilized myself, and giving you a roadmap for where you aspire to go.
If you're excited about this opportunity to spend the day together at The Hivery Marketing Bootcamp, and have a 1:1 session with me to audit and create action on your plan, plus all the bonuses I mentioned above, kindly register here.
You can pay half the program fee to hold your spot and the other half the week before the bootcamp.
Since the group is small, I do anticipate that this program will sell out, so don’t delay in signing up. Enroll before EOD on April 1st to get all FOUR BONUSES!
It would be an honor to spend the day with you clarifying and mapping your marketing. I’d love the opportunity to work 1:1 with you in the post-program audit and action-mapping session, too!

Branding for Small Business Owners with Monique Johnson
Branding for Small Business Owners with Monique Johnson
We are excited to announce our July Guest Masterclass Speaker, Monique Johnson!
What is Branding?
How do I create effective branding?
Why is it important to my business?
If you have ever asked yourself these questions, this masterclass is for you! Branding expert, Monique Johnson of MoJo Design, will teach us what it means to develop a clear message behind your branding and how to carry it through all of your collateral to create a look and feel that resonates with your customers and establishes a trustworthy brand.
You will walk away from this class with:
A clear understanding of what branding is
The importance of branding to any business
How to create an effective brand for your business.
Monique Johnson is an explorer and a storyteller.
Growing up on nine acres of rural mountain terrain, Monique began to explore and create stories at an early age in her very own backyard. At 10, she would ride her bike across dirt back roads in search of long-forgotten foundations of abandoned homes. She would begin an “archeological dig” and when she found an artifact, she would let her thoughts run wild with all the possibilities of what could have been.
Even today, her most creative ideas blossom from stepping outside – literally and figuratively. Monique inspires self-discovery through exploration and a sense of adventure so that others can achieve their dreams with authenticity.
Monique started MoJo Design 16 years ago to help entrepreneurs explore and share their stories with the world. For Monique, the collaborative journey is just as important as arriving at the destination. That is why she helps her customers ‘get outside’ and take creative leaps that inspire the best brand ideas for their business. Monique’s work spans uncovering and clarifying an element of brand identity, to developing complete brand experiences from scratch.

How to Tell Your Story with Katherine Kennedy
How to Tell Your Story with Katherine Kennedy
We are excited to announce our August Guest Masterclass Speaker, Katherine Kennedy!
We all have a story to tell, what is your story?
In this masterclass we will create a brave, fun, reflective space. We will find how to tell the story that lies within each of us. We will discover ourselves.
Expect laughter, maybe a few tears, and above all a supportive and courageous space where you can learn a simple framework that will help you tell your authentic story.
This will be an interactive, introspective chance to look at your own story with a new lens and perspective.
You will walk away from this class with:
A framework to tell your story with more authenticity and confidence
A deeper understanding of yourself and your values
Inspiration to connect more deeply with others, tell your story, and make an impact!
Katherine Kennedy is a Story Coach.
Katherine learned how to help people tell their story from being a mentor to over 1000 high school students during a formative two decades working at Summer Search, a nonprofit organization helping kids be the first in their families to go to college.
In 2015, she started her own coaching business focused on helping people tell their story and communicate with more authenticity and confidence. She has coached people on TED talks, toasts, presentations, and any time someone needs to share what they think and feel and want help organizing those thoughts and making it land right in the audience’s heart. That is what she does for others and what she did with her debut book Speaking to What Matters.
Katherine is also a wife, mother, daughter, sister and friend. She is grateful to have found her purpose but knows in her heart and soul that it is her relationships with the people in her life that make life meaningful and worthwhile. To her, this is what matters most.
Nothing brings her more joy than an honest, deep conversation. Well, maybe, a hearty, howling laugh! And most recently she is ecstatic about her early mornings watching the sunrise in the cold waters of the San Francisco Bay!

Guest Masterclass: 5 Things You Can Do to Boost Your Business in 2024
Guest Masterclass: 5 Things You Can Do to Boost Your Business in 2024 (virtual)
We are excited to announce our January Guest Masterclass Speaker, Laura Zavelson!
Tuesday, January 23 @ 12 pm PT
RSVP below
Are you willing to take action to increase your revenue in 2024? If the answer is yes, then this class is for you!
In our time together, we’ll look at 5 specific things you can do to boost your business’s top line. Some are quick wins. Some will require you to do some real thinking and creating on your own. But in my 20+ years of being an entrepreneur -- and mentoring and teaching entrepreneurs -- these 5 things are the biggest opportunities for income impact, yet they often get sidelined in the day to day chaos of running a business and having a full life.
What you’ll learn:
How to set a revenue goal based on the stage of your business
How to pick your top business priorities
How to create your pricing strategy
The top question you need to answer before you launch a new offer
The one thing you can do in 2024 that has the absolute best chance of helping your business survive and thrive (hint: it’s not social media)
Laura Zavelson teaches women business owners how to increase their revenue. Not by marketing more or working more, but by creating offers people want to buy and pricing them so they can beat the odds and thrive. Her digital lab class, Find Your Ideal Price Point, helps you figure out how much to charge with easy step-by-step instructions and a foolproof spreadsheet.
Laura's entrepreneurial journey includes co-founding a software design startup and later, an award-winning brand strategy firm. Her success led to an invitation to be an Entrepreneur in Residence at Elon University where she created and taught courses in entrepreneurship and marketing and was recognized for teaching excellence. She also taught in the MBA program at UNC-Chapel Hill and worked with them to develop their nationally recognized startup accelerator. Over the last decade she has advised hundreds of founders as a consultant and as a mentor for groups like Venture for America and Galvanize. Laura is an alum of The Hivery Incubator and co-taught the 2023 Revenue Sprint with Grace. She loves hiking, landscape photography, and day trips to wine country. Her goals for 2024 include learning how to paddleboard and launching her next book, “Maybe Marketing Isn’t Your Problem”.

The Hivery Planning Retreat at Stinson Beach
The Hivery Planning Retreat at Stinson Beach
1-DAY at Willow Camp, Stinson Beach, California
Thursday, October 12th, 2023
RESERVE YOUR SPOT
This daylong, coastal planning retreat experience, steps from the Pacific Ocean and less than an hour from San Francisco was designed to deliver a complete reset from the hustle and overwhelm of starting, growing, or running your business so that you can finish the year with an embodied plan, deepen your commitment, gather inspiration from amazing humans, and clarify your next chapter.
Your Hivery Planning Retreat as a daylong experience, combines expansive visioning for what you want to do next with the practicality of brass tacks planning, in a natural environment that makes it easy to connect the dots. You’ll be enveloped in community, creativity, yoga, peer mastermind groups, and spaciousness to gain clarity and vision. You’ll leave with a 90-day plan, mentorship from people that understand you and your deeper why.
Our planning retreat combines the dreaming of a vision day with the practicality of some brass tacks planning. So that you know exactly what you're doing for the last 12 weeks of the year, and you’re ready to start January strong.
You'll connect with other savvy business owners, writers, and artists that I've personally invited to share what's really working, receive ideas for visibility and growth, and create a clear strategy for where you want to take your work for the remainder of the year.
The aim of this retreat is to create space for planning, reflecting on what’s working and what’s not, vulnerability, intention-setting, and celebration of how far we've come as entrepreneurs who persevere and continue to grow. This experience has been designed to allow space to think and plan without distraction.
What can happen in one day?
We start the day with a short yoga and meditation experience to get grounded in our bodies and embrace embodied planning. That way, you can make your plans from your most expensive self instead of from a place of stress or scarcity.
The day continues with a focus on expansive planning, clarity, and goal-setting to end the year strong.
We will have an outdoor, farm-to-table lunch midday.
You'll be able to take a dip in the pool or ocean if you'd like during our breaks, or just lounge in a hammock while you reflect or continue working on your plan.
The afternoon continues with topic-based discussions and an option to take personal time to write.
We’ll end the day with a celebratory send-off complete with intention-setting and gourmet mocktails.
If you’ve been feeling burnt out or overwhelmed, not sure what to do next, or considering changing direction, this planning retreat is the answer.
You’ll get the TLC and nourishment you’ve been craving alongside other kind-hearted Hivery entrepreneurs, writers, coaches, and thought leaders, with the perfect mix of quiet, planning, clarity, and goal-setting in an environment conducive to expansive thinking.
Experience The Hivery Planning and Vision Retreat
What do dynamic, wise entrepreneurs, writers, creatives, and leaders have in common? They know when to connect, learn from people who are also focused on meaningful growth, reset and recharge. They know they need to change the scenery to re-anchor their work. They know they need a break from the day-to-day in order to have perspective on what to do next and how to end the year strong. They build relationships that are meaningful and recognize that business and professional friendships expand their ability (and motivation) to serve.
At The Hivery Planning Retreat at Stinson Beach, you’ll leave with clarity on what you’re building, how you want to work, and the spaciousness to define your goals. You’ll connect with other entrepreneurs, creatives, writers, and seekers to gain clarity, new ideas, resources, and collaborations. And, you’ll be home for dinner with a clear plan of where you’re taking your work.
Why You Need The Hivery Planning Retreat at Stinson Beach
Don’t save your year-end planning for the chaotic holidays. You’re not going to get less busy.
Retreats create space for getting out of your day-to-day and reconnecting to the deeper why behind what you do. It's a chance, in one day, to get out of your comfort zone, reset and focus on the things that are working for you and your business (or work), and also to inspect and shake up the things that aren’t working for you. This is your planning getaway to clarify what you want to do next with spaciousness and inspiration, and also to let go of the inner-critic, imposter syndrome, burnout, or fatigue that may have wormed its way into your ideas-filled brain.
This exclusive Hivery planning retreat for business owners, thought leaders, writers, and change-makers offers an unparalleled opportunity to connect and reconnect with Hivery peers through the perfect balance of structured sessions and creativity-infused experiences.
You will leave recharged by your Hivery community and with a deeper understanding of what to focus on next, reflection on what you love and what you want to let go of, and the renewed energy to continue on your path of meaningful work.
What is The Hivery Planning Retreat Experience?
We welcome you to a full day escape into the seaside of Stinson Beach, California. This inclusive plan, reset, recharge, and reconnect daylong retreat is rooted in nature, creativity, movement, and the kind community you’ve come to rely on at The Hivery.
We created this unique Hivery experience as a container for you to step away from your daily responsibilities as an entrepreneur, writer, creative, leader or seeker to reconnect to the deeper why of your most meaningful work. AND, to pinpoint your priorities, define your next steps, rejuvenate, reset, recharge, and envision your business, career, growth, goals, work, and life.
The Hivery Planning Retreat Includes:
Gourmet lunch al fresco prepared by our personal chef and Hivery member, Amanda Denny, Founder of Leaf & Sage
Opportunities to meet new people or reconnect with friends.
Yoga to get into a conscious and connected state of mind.
Planning and clarity sessions including a 12-week plan and priorities for the remainder of the year.
Creative and visioning exercises
Optional journaling and writing time
Inspiring talks including moderation and facilitation by Hivery Founder, Grace Kraaijvanger
Peer mastermind sessions to exchange ideas, resources, and mentorship with your community
Celebratory happy hour with gourmet mocktails, Instagram-worthy cheese boards, and intention setting
Who is The Hivery Planning Retreat for?
This daylong retreat is for you if you value having time and space to reset and reflect on what’s working and what’s not as it relates to creating a meaningful next chapter. If you need a day to re-prioritize what really matters to you and connect with other kind entrepreneurs and creatives, this daylong experience was designed for you.
This is your opportunity to go from working inside the to-do list of your business or life (like constant email checking and social media) to working on the deeper layers of why you started (or are thinking about starting) this business or art or book or exploration in the first place, including your personal deeper-why for what you do. If you’re questioning if you’re on the right path or in the right business or working on the right things, this is your opportunity to move through internal fears and into your own zone of grace.
Clarity and Planning.
The fastest path to radical change is to step away. Change the scenery. Get quiet. Reflect. Awaken to your surroundings. Take yourself out of the day-to-day and reimagine your vision, your mission, and your next steps. Like an antidote to overwhelm, nature and community provide a unique remedy to hustle culture. This is your opportunity over a full day away to reset, plan, clarify, create goals, and reconnect to what actually matters in your business and life.
Community.
The Hivery was built on the core value of the importance and transformative qualities of a kind, authentic community by your side when creating your next chapter. We are committed to creating containers of impact and inspiration by learning together, providing mutual and kind support, offering listening practices, creating space for ideas, and most importantly our proven realization that magic happens when we gather together and share our experiences of creating meaningful work and a committed, creative life.
Farm-to-Table Community Meals.
Experience the joy of eating together, slowly and spaciously savoring great food and nourishing company. You’ll enjoy lunch al fresco, hosted by Leaf & Sage with genuine companionship and conversation, alongside other dynamic women creating beautiful and meaningful work. You can chat about business, big visions for what you’d like to create, or simply share ideas on how you’re navigating burnout and finding inspiration.
The Hivery Planning Retreat Venue:
We are partnering with Willow Camp at Stinson Beach to bring you the *perfect* container for your retreat experience. All you need to do is arrive and be ready to receive for a whole day. We will take care of everything from there.
Nestled in the coastal town of Stinson, is a seaside estate with a historic lodge, outdoor yoga studio, meandering trails, panoramic views, a lily pad and pond, pool, hammocks, and lush gardens. Just ~35-minutes from the Golden Gate Bridge, but you’ll feel a million miles away.
