Speak to an expert advisor
Sometimes we have a decision to make but we feel like we are going round and round in a loop. Sometimes we just need a fresh perspective on our business to help us see the path ahead.
Speaking to an expert advisor will give you the clarity and confidence you need to move forward.

I am beyond thrilled that a service like this is available. Especially now, when it’s even harder to know where to go to for advice and to feel *seen* in the creative industry, such a personal consultation from a professional of this calibre is a needed and appreciated opportunity.
Frequently asked questions
We recommend that you have no more than 2 sessions with any one advisor. These sessions are to help solve problems rather than be used as regular support sessions. Our advisors are volunteers who’ve donated their time to support our community members. Their time is limited, so we ask that you please use this resource sparingly.
After you book your appointment your advisor should contact you directly to arrange your session. Our advisors are volunteers so this might take a bit of time, but if you’re concerned about the lack of communication search your junk mail to see if their email has been misplaced. If there’s nothing there, please email Medeia medeia@wearecec.co.uk and she will contact the advisor for an update.
Many of our advisors offer additional support such as consultancy work, coaching, legal, or accountancy services for a reasonable fee. If you wish to continue working with them after your 2 allotted sessions, make arrangements to formalise your partnership directly with them.
Each session is 30 minutes long. You can get the most out of our session by providing the advisor with detailed info about your business and the challenges you are facing. You will have an opportunity to answer these questions when you apply.
Make sure you also complete your profile so that the advisor can learn more about you & your business.
On the day turn up prepared with any additional info the advisor might need in order to understand your business.
If you can’t make a session please email your advisor as soon as you can so that they can reorganise their calendars.
Get in touch with Medeia medeia@wearecec.co.uk and let her know what kind of issue you’re having and she may be able to suggest another contact.
