How the Right Mentoring Support Can Transform a Creative Business

VR Studio on the road to success

Running a creative business can feel like navigating a constantly shifting landscape — full of opportunity, but also challenges that aren't always easy to see from inside the business itself.

When I began working with Silver Shadow Studio, our focus was on refining their business model to unlock new growth. Pricing strategy, leadership clarity, and long-term vision all came into play — and I’m incredibly proud of what we achieved together.

Here’s what their founder had to say about the experience:

🟩 "Mark has been an outstanding mentor to me and to Silver Shadow Studio. His clarity, strategic insight, and calm, no-nonsense guidance have been transformative from our very first call. He helped me reframe critical aspects of the business, especially around pricing, and encouraged me to challenge long-held assumptions. Mark has a rare ability to cut through the noise and offer direction that is both practical and forward-thinking. Every single session added real value, on several aspects, and I always came away with a clearer sense of purpose and direction. His impact on our progress has been substantial, and I have no doubt it will continue to shape the studio for years to come. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to any founder or creative leader in need of a sharp, thoughtful, and genuinely supportive business mentor."

Helping founders gain clarity, momentum, and confidence in their strategy is at the heart of my mentoring work. Whether it's around pricing, positioning, leadership development, or scaling sustainably, the right support at the right time can make all the difference.
