Who it is for

Ara Kōrero is for small business owners who want a private space to think, to be honest, and to move forward — with someone who has genuinely been there. You might come straight from a Koha Session, after Ara Hui, or know from the start that 1:1 is what you need. All of those are fine. You start where you are.

  • Setting up or restructuring how your business runs
  • Systems, tools, and tech — what to use and how
  • Marketing and getting found (without the performance)
  • Pricing, money conversations, what to charge and why
  • Strategy — where to go next and how to get there
  • Clients and relationships: keeping the good ones and navigating the hard ones
  • Mindset and wellbeing — the stuff nobody puts in a business plan

How it works

  • Book a session (or start with a discovery call if you would like to check the fit first)
  • Vernette sends a short prompt beforehand: no homework, just a question to sit with
  • We meet on Google Meet — Vernette opens, you talk, we work through it together
  • Within 48 hours: a follow up summary with key threads and actions lands in your inbox
  • Sessions run between 60 and 90 minutes, depending on what comes up

What we can talk about

There is no fixed agenda; you bring what is most alive for you right now. Some of what Vernette brings is professional expertise. Some is lived experience. Both are real. Both are useful.

  • Honesty

    A private space to be completely honest about where your business is at

  • Trust

    Vernette goes first — because that is how real trust works

  • Momentum

    Clear threads and actions in a follow-up summary within 48 hours

Pricing

What does it cost?

Ara Kōrero sessions are $150 to $250 plus GST. Pricing depends on depth and duration, but you will know the cost before you book (no surprises).

Not sure if you are ready for 1:1?

Ara Hui is our group option: small, accessible, and a good way to see how Vernette works before going deeper.
