WHAT IS THE SOLUTION SEAT
Real work, done in real time, in front of the people who need to see it most.
The Solution Seat is Made To Grow's signature mastermind format.
At the heart of every session, one entrepreneur volunteers to bring a real business challenge into the room, and works through it live with an expert guide and the full support of everyone present.
There's no theory without application here.
No advice without action.
The person in the seat walks away with something built.
Everyone else walks away having watched it happen, and knowing exactly how to do the same for themselves.
It is, without question, the most valuable 25 minutes in the room.
HOW IT WORKS
01
We set the stage
The host opens the session, frames the topic, and establishes why it matters for your business right now.
The expert teaches
Our guest expert delivers a focused, practical mini-lesson on the session topic, the framework, the principles, the real application.
02
The Solution Seat opens
One volunteer takes the seat.
The expert coaches them live.
The room watches, asks questions, and learns by doing...together.
04
04
Everyone takes it home
A short working segment gives every attendee time to apply the lesson to their own business before they leave the room.
SESSION 01 TOPIC
Your
Brand Story
Most entrepreneurs can explain what they do. Very few can tell you why anyone should care.
Your brand story is the difference, and it belongs in every piece of messaging you create.
In this session, we'll break down exactly what a brand story is, why it works, and how to use it to attract the right clients across every platform, every pitch, and every introduction you make.
WHAT YOU'LL WALK AWAY WITH
-
A clear understanding of what a brand story actually is, and what it isn't
-
The framework behind a story that connects, converts, and stays memorable
-
A draft of your own brand story started in the room
-
Practical ways to use your story across your website, social, email, and in-person pitches
-
A live example of the framework applied to a real local business, built in front of you

WHO THIS IS FOR
You're in the early stages and still finding your voice
You know what you do but struggle to explain it in a way that lands. You second-guess your bio, your website copy, your Instagram captions. This session gives you the framework to stop guessing.
You've been in business a while but your message feels scattered
Your offers are solid but your messaging hasn't caught up. You're not attracting the right clients consistently, and you know your story isn't doing the work it should be. This is your reset.
You want to learn by watching it done on a real business
The Solution Seat is as valuable for the audience as it is for the person in it. Watching a brand story built live in front of you, on a real local business, is a masterclass you can't get from a webinar.
