I'm a photographer, highly trained teacher, social influencer and enthusiastic coach who's about to be your biggest cheerleader!  I have a Masters in Art Education and spent ten years teaching in a highly awarded Ohio school district.  Thousands of students, both children and adults, have come through my classroom. I've got the experience and knowledge to be able to teach in a way you will truly understand.  Ever tried to learn something that went right over your head?  Not here.  Not in Sparkle Intensive.  This workshop is one big sparkly gift of awesomeness!

Will it work?

While I firmly believe in trusting your gut, I do NOT believe in letting limiting beliefs and/or fear control you. That's not the best way to look at an investment that could potentially transform your business.  Listening to that little voice in your head that’s asking you over and over: “Will this work? Is this the answer? What if it doesn’t work for me? How is this really different from everything else I’ve tried before?" may be holding you back from success.

Here’s the thing: the investment you’re about to make in Sparkle Intensive isn’t really a business investment - it’s an investment in yourself.

I can’t categorically promise that the Sparkle Intensive will work for you or that I can help change your life – only you have control over that.

What I can promise is that the content I teach in this program has worked for me personally as well as the diverse group of female entrepreneurs who have applied these lessons and seen the difference that it has made to the bottom lines of their businesses.

I’m just not sure I’m ready to make this investment…

I totally get that investing in yourself can feel challenging and frivolous even, especially if you’ve already invested tons in coaching and other tools to run your business this year.  But let's put this in perspective:

Your Sparkle Intensive membership is about equal to one Target run a week, a massage once a month, or one overnight getaway with your spouse.  The only difference?  None of those things help you book more clients.  They absolutely produce joy... but not income.

You might feel like Sparkle Intensive is an investment right now and I get it - other students have felt the same way in the past too.

But what I also know is that after those same students started working through the program, growing their customer base and making sales that they could trace right back to their online marketing efforts, they felt that investing in Sparkle Intensive was one of the best decisions they could have ever made.

If you can get just one extra client a month, your membership will, most likely, be covered!

How do I pay?

You can purchase Sparkle Intensive with any major credit card.  You have the option to pay in full or break it down into three payments.  If you choose 3 payments, your first payment will come out today, and the final two will be automatically withdrawn on the first of the month!

Is this an on-going membership?

Nope.  The Sparkle Intensive is a three month, or 90 day, bootcamp!  At the end, you'll be free to enroll in other workshops and there are no additional payments once your course tuition has been paid in full!

I feel comfortable with email marketing, can I just do the other two units of study?

This is a 90-day bootcamp and all the lessons are sequentially created; meaning they build off one another and are meant to be consumed in order.  Additionally, there is a strong community aspect to the program, so we journey through the content together.  You are invited to join us for the entire three month program and, if that doesn't meet your needs, we respectfully ask that you consider other workshops.

Can guys take the workshop?

Sure... as long as you're cool with the fact that I teach and market exclusively to the heart of a woman.  If you don't mind the sparkles and the girlboss talk, you're welcome to join us!  I know you'll still find incredible information that's applicable to every business.

I’m enrolled!  What happens next?

Once your application is approved, you've made your first payment and signed your contract, we'll send you an email with the next steps.  This includes a link to the private Facebook group, the time and date of our official kick-off party, when you can expect us to open the FB group, and all the other essential info you need!

Before the course begins, take the opportunity to set yourself up for success by blocking out time to actually do the work. We suggest either an hour per day, or a 3-4 hour chunk of time once a week.  That might sound like a lot, but big changes take hard work.  We know you'll find the effort worth it in the end!

How is the program structured? What will I learn first? 

After working with thousands of entrepreneurs over the years, I've seen what works and what doesn't when it comes to online marketing.  So I'm going to start you off with the most valuable thing you'll ever do for your business: intentionally craft a smart a strategic sales funnel.  It sounds oh-so-boring, but it's oh-so-important if you want to be making more than a few thousand a year.

We'll move on to email marketing, focusing on large majority of our time on creating an irresistible opt-in {if your "what to wear" guide or "shoot planner" is your current opt-in, you're doing it 100% wrong}.  Taking the time to nurture warm leads is always the easiest way to make money, so we'll camp out there for a while before moving on to our final month of content.

The Sparkle Intensive will wrap up with a basic Facebook ad strategy that works for everyone, even if you don't have an ads budget, or your budget it small.  We're going to talk through the process of creating a smart campaign and I'll show you how those same strategies apply to any strong marketing strategy - ads or not!

What if I find the program isn’t for me?

I truly believe in the power of this program and have witnessed first-hand the extraordinary results that our students get after taking Sparkle Intensive. This workshop was lovingly created and the content taught is based upon what I’ve learned while growing my own businesses... with absolutely zero marketing or business training!

It’s all based in fact, data and professional experience.  I’m confident that asking for a refund will never cross your mind, but if you need to cancel your workshop {for any reason} you must contact us within seven days of the kick-off party.  Once week two starts, you're considered an official Sparkle Intensive member and are in it for the long haul!

As this workshop only works if you do, no refunds will be given for a lack of participation/completion.

Do I have to participate in the Facebook group?

All of your lessons will be delivered in the private Facebook group.  You must be in this group to receive the content.  Participation in the community conversations, however, is completely optional.  This is where you’re going to form sparkly friendships AND be able to connect directly with Cyrissa and the Sparkle Team.... so we highly suggest that you take an active role in this workshop!

How long do I have access to the lessons?

As long as you're a member, in good standing, you'll have access to the lessons and the group for as long as the Sparkle Intensive program is offered or until Facebook shuts us down.  I've been offering this mentoring program for four years and have no plans to stop.  At the end of the 90 days, the group will be archived.  This means you can still view all of the content and watch every video, but you cannot "like" or comment on any of the posts.
