Learn simple, easy and effective skills, that empower you to transform your marketing and branding without the need to hire a pro, so you can launch your biz fast, look professional and attract your dream clients.
You're an entrepreneur, freelancer or start-up owner who is dreaming of transforming your marketing to grow your biz.
You've taken the leap, started doing your own marketing and even paid a pro for some help.
But you're not seeing the transformation you had hoped for, and now, want to learn how to do it yourself.
You're frustrated because...
-
You've taken self-study courses, watched Youtube videos, paid a professional - but it's just not clicking.
-
You're struggling with the marketing jargon, and can't figure out how to create effective marketing.
- You're seeing other start-ups and small businesses have consistent, high-quality marketing, and wondering what you're missing.
- You feel like you're doing all the right things but it's not working to grow your biz.
I get it.
I've helped thousands of entrepreneurs like you.
For 23 years, I've been branding and marketing for businesses ranging from start-ups to Fortune 500 global corporates, helping them to achieve their marketing goals. I've worked on thousands of projects across dozens of industries, and the thing they all have in common, is a desire to cut through the fluff, and achieve consistent, clear communications to their dream customers, in the fastest, simplest way possible. I love teaching my clients shortcuts and tricks to create striking impactful marketing, so creating a course seemed like an obvious way I could help more people, especially when there aren't enough hours in the day to help them all personally!
- My passion now lies in championing emerging brands and empowering the "underdogs" to shine in the competitive market.
- It frustrated me that some wonderful, worthy businesses couldn't afford to hire a pro, but I really wanted to help them.
- So I started this Marketing & Branding Bootcamp because I wanted to empower freelancers, solopreneurs & start-ups with the knowledge and skills they need to create their own brand and marketing, without the need to hire a pro.
Imagine what it would feel like to...
Be empowered with the skills you need to build your own website in just weeks?
Save thousands by not hiring a pro, so you can spend more on relaxing instead?
Create a brand that attracts your dream customers, and increases your bottom line?
All without having to be tech savvy, or understand marketing complicated jargon.
Introducing
Marketing & Branding Bootcamp is a self-study online course for solopreneurs, freelancers and start-up owners who want to learn to DIY their marketing, so they can transform their businesses, attract their dream customers and increase their revenue. It is designed to run over 6 weeks, with live Q&As each week, but if you prefer to blitz it in a weekend, you can!
“I found the course easy to follow, and with very little tech knowledge, surprised myself at how simple I found it to create my own marketing."
— Elizabeth Hansen
"I’m so enthused about this course its hard to know where to begin! It has literally changed my business life completely.
Before I begin, you need to know two things:
1) I had never used Canva before and
2) I have never designed a website before.
Now back to the review: Polly’s course takes you, simultaneously on a creative and technical journey. Step by step you build your brand, and master Canva basics at the the same time. This cohesive approach means that you can practically apply your newly acquired digital design skills with an exciting immediacy and quickly see your visual story appear. Learning these skills has been liberating, I don’t need to rely on another person to understand my “vision”, if I want to advertise something new I can quickly rustle up a design and within a few hours have new page on a website or a multi faceted social media campaign. I can easily send designs to printers, revamp my business cards or put together a vibrant presentation. I have now designed three websites, three logos, posted multiple social media campaigns and secured contracts on the strength of a presentation."

At the end of our 6 weeks together, you'll walk away with:
An understanding of the marketing terms you need to know - and the ones you don't need to worry about.
The skills to use Canva to create the assets you need, including logo, icons, flyers, social media posts, and even a website.
A live published brand new website, with live links, video, images, map and more, designed by you, hosted on canva for free, simply and easily linked with either a free domain, or one you own.
Customised templates for you to use when posting on social media, and an understanding of how to schedule your posts.
Social media profile graphics, created by you, and knowledge how to upload them.
A clear brand story, and set of brand messages that describe your unique selling proposition, for you to use across all your marketing materials.
Here's what you'll be learning:
Module 1: Create your Brand Story
In this module we examine your WHY - what makes you unique. It's easy to skip this step and jump straight into making your shiny logo and brand identity, but this thinking part really sets the foundations for every marketing activity you ever do.
Module 3: Getting Creative - designing your brand identity
In this module you'll learn the basics of Canva, and how to create your logo, icons, moodboard and social media templates. We provide done-for-you templates and checklists to make it easy!
Module 3: Writing your website content
In this module you'll learn how to craft concise, punchy words that communicate your story - we'll create a tagline, mission statement and brand messages. We'll look at copywriting vs AI, and you'll learn tricks to speed up the content creation process.
Module 4: Taking your own headshot photo
In this lesson you'll learn simple step-by-step instructions to take your own headshot, using just your iPhone.
Module 5: Creating your social media accounts
In this lesson we'll go through how to choose which social channels you should use, how to create your profile, write your bio, create your graphics, and upload them. We'll also touch on scheduling, so by the end you'll be confident to manage your own social media posts.
Module 6: Creating your website
In this lesson you'll pull together everything you've learned in the other lessons, and design (and publish) your website in Canva. We'll cover layout, images, fonts, colours and social media links. We'll learn simple tricks to create live links to any external pages. We'll also compare Canva to other platforms so you are fully informed about what suits your biz best, and even some basic SEO best practices.

I'll help you decide if it's right for you!
Maybe you're thinking...
I don't have enough time
My goal is to speed up this process for you so you can see fast transformations from your course ASAP.
That means you'll get step-by-step videos and done-for-you templates that you can customize in no time.
These resources will save you hundreds of hours and thousands of £s, which means you'll have more time to create your own branding & marketing.
What if it doesn't work for me?
I totally get it! This is such a common fear that holds us back from taking action, and it almost stopped me from creating this course! But I'm so glad I pushed through the fear and did it anyway!
After taking the course I took to teach me how to create a course, I've figured out the way to teach with ease and simplicity, in order to get results as fast as possible, with as little effort.
What if... I can't do it
Don't worry! This is a common fear. As long as you can operate a computer, know how to store files, can navigate the internet, are familiar with a video comms platform such as Zoom or Teams, and can use an email account, you will be able to follow the course and learn the skills. I have made sure the tech is simple, and the live weekly calls are designed to address any issues students have. Email support is also available should you need technical help.
Here's what happens when you join:
When you join your course, you receive a confirmation email from your teacher Polly, welcoming you to the course, with your login details. This allows you immediate access to all course materials, so that you can get started straight away, at a time that works for you. Yay!
You'll get access to the Facebook community, to post questions and be supported.
The course is designed to run over 6 weeks, with live Q&As on zoom each week. We offer 2 time slots for the calls, so that one works for you.
However, you can take the course at your own pace, leisurely over 6 weeks, or complete the whole course over one weekend if you prefer.
