    Tara is a fabulous teacher. This class is packed full of great information and super useful exercises to help you think deeper and get focused. Worth your time.

  • Petra C. Oct 18, 2021

    Really GREAT. You have to be up-to-date. Even if you do a business makeover after 33 years as a professionell and 17 years after starting your own studio. I love it.

    First, i teach marketing classes at a university. I often find myself rolling my eyes when I glance at some of the marketing speakers here. They often mis quote academic research and say obvious things. I watch in part to see their presentation skills in action-- because those tend to be good. That said, Tara makes none of the errors I complained about. She does not claim to be an expert in what she does not happen to be an expert on. She does know what she is talking about when she gives advice. Her style of presenting is also fantastic. BRAVO! (From a not easy to win over critic. ; )

  • Henry B. Feb 13, 2018

    Great course! Exceeded my expectations. Liked how it is focused completely on business, not life coachy and provides a framework for you to work in, rather than telling you what to do. It is to the point, in depth and every lesson is really useful and easy to follow. Tara involves the audience members and uses their businesses as examples, which gives really valuable context. I bought this course at a discount but would have happily paid the full price.

  • Nicolet G. Dec 5, 2017

    As a photographer and photography teacher, I have enrolled in so many online courses about every aspect of my business, but not one single person has genuinely made me take action until I watched the free episode Write your Stand-out Business Bio. That lesson was so spot-on that I did not even hesitate about the fact that this course is almost three years old because it touches the basics of creating a stand-out business. Yes, the lessons on social media and email marketing seem outdated by looking at the interface of Facebook and Instagram and did not refer to tagging and segmenting your email marketing at all. But those are just technical aspects that you can find all over the internet. What Tara teaches is to discover your Why and how to implement your Vision, and that is never going to be outdated. I can totally recommend this course to anyone that is building or want to grow their business.

  • Jim T. Sep 5, 2017

    Unsure if I would recommend. Watching the live broadcast and it is HEAVILY aimed towards a female audience. This is not a negative in itself, but the skewed information being given isn't confidence inspiring in purchasing the full course.

    What I love about Tara's class is that she's not giving you some random step-by-step guide to follow to grow your riches. She's not telling you that if you do X,Y,Z you will find the missing secrets to success. She is helping you understand the foundations in which you can build ANY business on. Getting you to recognize your unique qualities, what sets you apart, what your unique selling points are and HOW to figure it all out is the gold she shares with you. She helps you break down the mindsets you need to consider if you want to stop playing small. Even though she interviews a lot of different business owners, some you may relate with, some you won't. What I enjoyed about listening in to each one was how she breaks down and comes up with her solutions for each business owner. It's magic on how fast she does it. If you stop looking only at the surface and really pay attention and listen to the type of questions she is asking, you can easily turn that question back on you for your business. A lot of people get hung up over the business owners not being like theirs so they can't relate, but that is where you have to be more open minded and dig deeper. That is what Tara's class is all about. It's about going deep and breaking down your barriers to find the true essence of why you want to go into business, what is keeping you stuck and why you do what you do. What makes you unique and why a customer should listen to you is what she helps you uncover. I would highly recommend Tara's class. By the time you get to the end you will have a stronger understanding of how you should build the foundations of your business. Once you understand that, you can build any business, anytime.

    I would like to begin my review that I am very skeptical about so many "self made experts" in different fields. In most of cases I find their suggestions very primitive. But Tara is different. I started by downloading everything what is for free and I liked it. I was expecting an e - mail from Tara every day during the course Price for Growth. It really made my think of my business. I also red a book Quiet Power Strategy. And then I purchased this course. I assume classics - I was like a fish on a hook. I really enjoyed the first few classes but approx. 65% seemed not useful. The thing what I did not like - I had to listen the business problems and challenges of people I have nothing in common. I would have preferred short essence from Tara, her guest speakers and that's it. Too many cases/participants are about the business that similar to Tara's. To summarize - even I did not enjoyed all the classes, I am happy I got to know Tara who provoked my thoughts and I have paid also for the free staff where Tara has invested a lot of time, knowledge and energy.

    one of the best CL courses i've taken! Tara's insight on standing out in a crowded marketplace is priceless. full of actionable steps to create a sustainable business.

  • Kimberly J. Jun 25, 2016

    Tara is a wonderful teacher that provides lots of useful information in this course. Can't wait to try more classes from her!

  • Andrea J. Jun 24, 2016

    I thought Tara's bootcamp was excellent! My background is in corporate law so I have an understanding of business from that point of view. Tara's bootcamp helped me to fill in the gaps in my knowledge to give me an excellent foundation for launching my own business.

  • Bonnie K. Jun 24, 2016

    This class in informative, up-beat, fun, and well paced. Tara Gentile is a real talent.

  • Julijana (Julz) P. Jun 14, 2016

    I caught your free class yesterday and wow I learnt more in that class than I have researching for years (& with professional advice). Very engaging and no time wasting - which is just fantastic! Can't wait to try more classes.

  • Carolyn D. Apr 26, 2016

    So good I can't multi-task. I've taken dozens and dozens of courses online - and I usually walk on my treadmill while watching and then summarize after. Not so with Tara's classes. I don't want to miss a minute and I'm taking tons of notes. Her training isn't "follow this new shiny object and make it 6 figures in 6 weeks" - her training is about the foundational and fundamentals for building a business. AND it's not about the latest and great technology that you NEED to buy and it's not about changing your mindset so you can be more successful. Great stuff - you won't be wasting your money.

  • Matthew M. Mar 8, 2016

    If I ever nail down a business idea to pursue, I am DEFINITELY going to revisit every single minute of this course. Amazing material. I wish I was in a better position to soak it all in. Tara is a phenomenal and talented instructor.

  • Neha M. Oct 21, 2015

    When soul meets the heart, heart meets the mind - it alchemises into someone called Tara. And you shouldn't be surprised because TARA means a star in Hindi. And oh boy..she shines brightly. I think this is the best money I have ever spent in my life. I have been rummaging through different courses on the internet, different coaching sessions and no one could explain me why I felt out of alignment, disparate in my efforts and just ineffective overall. I am leaving so empowered, grounded and finding my North Star. Or I should say North Tara. And it's only beautiful to say that Tara shines brightly in the sky to help others achieve the depth that it's required to succeed. Tara, you have a life fan !

  • Anke K. Jul 15, 2015

    This course brings no-nonsense and really helpful content. To me, each lesson is like a brilliant pearl of a necklace. This is real fun. I watch every single videos several times and each time I feel supported in turning my dream into reality step by step. Feeling connected across the ocean (the Netherlands). Thank you so much Tara Gentile and CreativeLive!

  • U. May 14, 2015

    This course is jam-packed full of 'ah ha' moments, real life examples, and easily connected action steps. I started my business this year and am using this course to do it right. I've only finished the first section of lessons and already my confusion and feelings of overwhem have dissolved. I genuinely can't believe the amount of valuable content there's been so far. I've watched all the videos several times over because they're so rich in information, I get something new every time. I feel so excited and grateful that I came across Tara Gentile. I am genuinely a customer for life.

  • Renee C. Apr 28, 2015

    When I started this course, I was ready to take my business to it's next stage, but only had a vague idea of what that looked like. With Tara's concise, intense and actionable teaching, I was able to firmly decide where my business was headed, what the conditions for success were, and just how I was going to get there. Tara's magic lives in the way she carefully leads you to assumption busting revelations about why and how you do what you do, then explains how to find your own better way. Within days of finishing the course, I have secured an additional $1500 in revenue for my business as a direct result of gearing my actions towards my Chief Initiative and using media effectively. I recommend this class to every person I speak to with a small business. —R. Carmody

  • M. Apr 28, 2015

    We all as business owners should be pounding down Tara Gentile's door begging her to take our money. Just. Buy it. Immediately.

  • G. Apr 27, 2015

    This course has totally transformed my way of thinking 'business' & relating it to & using my unique qualities as a person to help my business stand out...never saw this link before, thanks Tara! What Tara has done with this course is help me become my own business coach by helping me to recognize my vision; my uniqueness & how I'm going to bring these together to make a successful & profitable business. I would recommend it a 100 times over :-) Thanks Tara & Thanks Creativelive...you ar e helping to create star businesses! :-)

  • U. Apr 26, 2015

    It's been an amazing experience for me. I had read many articles on the subject but had always struggled with coming up with concrete and useful solutions. Lesson after lesson I've become more aware of what I need to change and improve in my business and I'm now ready to take action. I feel like I'm on the right path now. Truly wonderful bootcamp, inspiring and energizing. Tara is a true hero! Thank you Tara and creativelive!

  • Hanle P. Apr 24, 2015

    I watched online here and there and decided that this was a course really worth having. After watching the first two sessions, I had a huge epiphany and for the first time in a very long while I am excited about my business again and understand exactly what has been missing. I cannot wait to complete this course. Thank you, Tara, you really go deep and don't waste our time with fluff.

  • U. Apr 24, 2015

    "Dreams can become reality when you DARE to be DIFFERENT" With this class Tara Gentile opened the door to seeing my business as more than a dream. She set the ground work that will enable me to make my business distinct and really make its place in the body care conversation. Learning I don't have to try to "be like," "act like," and say what's already being said was the spark that stoked the embers of my business. Working to establish my Guiding Principles and Vision has made me nauseous but I'm happy with the opportunities that are now waiting for me to claim! Thank you Tara Gentile, and to CreativeLive as well.

  • U. Apr 24, 2015

    Great course, even for those just beginning their business. Lots of great ideas on how to stand out in a tough, noisy market.
