I have just finished the last week of your amazing course. I am so proud of what I have achieved in just sticking with it. When I look back at what I’ve actually completed I am feeling very inspired to keep going back over each week’s lesson to slowly cementing a permanent change for me and more importantly Sky View’s marketing presence.

It’s unbelievable how much clarity I gained from my coaching session with a Tourism Tribe expert digital strategist.
I can only imagine how much time and money I would have wasted if I had gone down the path that a web designer initially suggested. Fabienne did a review of my online presence prior to our phone call and we shared computer screens so I could see the results for myself. It was the best money I ever spent. Or shall I say it saved me $3,200 and 3 weeks work!
