Hi, I'm Nicola Smith
I've dedicated the last 11 years to helping creative business owners craft businesses they love and give them financial security. Before that I ran my own successful creative business for many years too...
I had no idea what I was doing when I started my own creative business. All I knew was that I needed to replace my full time income quickly so I jumped straight in, to put my creative skills to good use. Once I'd figured a few things out, it was Absolutely Fantastic!
First though, I made a lot of mistakes! Even though I had years of successfully working as a photographer AND in marketing behind me as well as extensive marketing and sales professional training. But it's all so different when you're selling your own work!
I remember desperately scrabbling to design and create new (random!) products that I hoped would be the magic solution to help me get out of a lack of sales. That was until I figured out it wasn't about needing new products at all... the solution was discovering the best way to get in front of my audience to build a loyal customer base.


And I also remember thinking that to provide great service and value, so people would actually buy from me, I had to keep my prices as low as humanly possible, with teeny-tiny profit margins. After all this was 'just little old me', making at my dining room table.Â
This meant that even though I had sussed how to sell my products I wasn't bringing home good money. That was until I got really clear about what my business needed to do for me, as well as my customers - which meant adjusting my business model, pricing and positioning. And realising I was worth it!
Then everything fell into place, it was absolutely fantastic! I had a business I was proud of and I enjoyed financial freedom without being tied to my business!
Now it's time to share my best, most effective method yet - The Make Believe MarketingÂŽ Method. It brings together EVERYTHING that's needed to create a thriving, sustainable and unique creative business. Â
Let me show you exactly how The Make Believe MarketingÂŽ Method works and more importantly how you can use it to grow your business in way which suits your life and lifestyle.
To turn your craft, skill, knowledge and talents into a professional, respected business (your customer making machine) is overwhelming and stressful for most creatives. There's so much to do, decisions to make, and way too much information to wade through on top of being creative. And that's before we consider the tech involved. It's exhausting just thinking about it.
This is where The Make Believe MarketingÂŽ Method is a total life (or should that say business?) saver.
Instead of relying on a 'make all the mistakes' approach, the Make Believe MarketingŽ Method, 12 step method, guides you through the complete process of creating your own Absolutely Fantastic profitable customer making machine.
It crafts your business from the ground up to ensure you have everything working efficiently and effectively. Because driving traffic to a business that isnât working is a waste of time and soul destroying. Let me explain:
The Make Believe MarketingŽ Method provides the freedom and flexibility to create your best business, one that suits your ambitions and dreams.
Â
Over the last 11 years, I have helped many creative business owners to grow their businesses. Often they tell me that a lack of visitors to their shop is their biggest issue. When I dig into their business, I see a completely different story...
46% of the time, they simply aren't ready to sell, so understanding Instagram or SEO won't fix the problem. It simply creates more frustration as more visitors bounce away without buying.
This is because good marketing can only take you so far if your business isnât set up properly. Think of your business as the engine and your marketing as the fuelâno matter how good the fuel is, it won't get you anywhere if the engine is faulty. If your pricing, product, or service delivery isnât right, no amount of marketing can cover those cracks; in fact, it often just highlights them faster.
This is why the first stage of the Make Believe MarketingÂŽ Method is:
- MAKE: Being business ready to serve you and your customers.
This 4-step section is designed to ensure EVERYTHING that happens behind the scenes serves you and your customer WELL.
Even when your business is set up well, itâs never a âset it and forget itâ situation. Just like you wouldnât drive a car without regular maintenance, your business needs constant attention to spot and fix any âleaksââwhether thatâs cash flow issues, outdated processes, or shifting market demands. Marketing is powerful, but it needs a solid foundation to work with and a constant eye on the business to ensure itâs running smoothly. MAKE covers this all for you.Â
Â
But having a well-set-up business isnât enough on its own. Your mindset plays a crucial role in how effectively you can attract and serve your customers. If youâre not confident in your business, your marketing, or even yourself, you constantly hold yourself back.
- BELIEVE: Be ready to attract customers. Be confident in you, your business, your customers, and your craft.
You can have a business thatâs ready to go, but if you donât like it, donât feel aligned with your future customers, or are stuck in self-doubt, your marketing efforts wonât land. Youâll procrastinate. Youâll make excuses. Youâll find every reason to avoid the task you âshouldâ be doing. BELIEVE is about clearing those mindset hurdles so you can put your best self out there. If this sounds familiar, itâs time to address it.
And donât worry; in the Make Believe MarketingÂŽ Method, we avoid adding âshouldâ tasks to your to-do listâwe work with you, not against you.
Â
Â
Finally, once youâve got your business foundations solid and your mindset in the right place, we can move on to the exciting partâmarketing.
But remember, marketing is more than just posting on social media or running ads. Itâs connecting your now rock-solid business and your confident self with the right audience, in the right way, at the right time.
- MARKETING: Now you market and sell. This is EVERYTHING you need to attract happy customers and scale your business.
Marketing is where you get to showcase everything youâve worked so hard to build, but itâs only effective when the groundwork is done. Without the right foundations, youâre just shouting into the void. But with a clear, confident approach, your marketing efforts will resonate, your messages will land, and your customers will be excited to buy.
With this final stage, youâll be confidently attracting your dream customers, creating happy buyers, and most importantly, putting cash in your bank.
Â
The Make Believe MarketingÂŽ Method gives you the complete toolkit to do this professionally and at scale, so you can feel assured that your business isnât just built wellâitâs built to grow.
Â
So you can own a thriving business which customers love to buy from and to recommend to their friends and that allows you to take a day off and holidays from too!
Because a creative business is about giving you a better, more fulfilled, flexible life, not taking it over with added stress and worry!
There's no better way than The Make Believe MarketingÂŽ Method for you to grow and scale your creative business, whether you sell products, services or sell direct to consumer or to business.
