Mini Sessions Not Selling? Listen to This.

You’ve decided you’re offering mini sessions. You picked the date, the location, the pricing…you’re ready! You hit publish, fully expecting your Stripe account to light up – and then *crickets*.

If your mini sessions aren’t selling the way you thought they would, this episode is your reality check (in the best way). Because most of the time? Nothing has actually gone wrong.

We’re getting into what’s really happening when your launch feels quiet, and why your nervous system might be the thing pulling you out too early. I’m also walking you through the actual timeline and strategy behind a successful mini session launch so you can stop guessing and start selling with intention.

We’re talking:

  • Why “crickets” doesn’t mean failure
  • The nervous system spiral (and how to coach yourself through it)
  • A realistic mini session launch timeline (60, 30, 14 days out)
  • Building demand vs. expecting it to exist
  • How more may be better than less when it comes to selling
  • Selling every day without feeling “annoying”
