Confidently Build Your
Meetup Group
in 60 days
AND GENERATE A CONSTANT SOURCE OF HOT LEADS FOR YOUR BUSINESS.
[without sleazy sales tactics, criplling overwhelm or spending a fortune on online marketing]
If you’re a coach, healer or service-based business owner looking to attract clients and increase your income while making a positive impact, then you already know you need to build your tribe.
And there's no better way to do this than through the power of Meetup and live events.
But I bet you already know this too.
After all, you live in the same world I do - a world where we're desperate for meaningful, heartfelt human connection.
So I bet you already know that if you can foster a place where your ideal clients can experience this connection, you'll build a business that forever fuels your soul with inspiration and fills your programs with new clients.
HERE'S WHAT YOU
MIGHT NOT KNOW
Even if you already have a successful business, having your own Meetup group can...
-
Instantly raise your local celebrity and authority
This can lead to speaking opportunities, invitations to collaborate on fun projects, interview requests and all sorts of unexpected opportunities that can add new revenue streams to your business. -
Generate consistent, reliable cash flow
Having your own Meetup group puts you in complete control of your profits. Once you build and nurture your community, you'll always have raving fans ready to buy. -
Skyerocket your know, like and trust factor
When people MEET you – and truly connect with your essence and your passion – they HIRE you. It’s just how things happen (people want to work with people they like and trust).
-
Increase your joy and fulfillment
Running an online business can be great and all, but nothing is more fulfilling than seeing the tangible impact you're making through your members' smiles, hugs and words of gratitude (to your face)!
Even though the reasons to build a Meetup group and host your own live events are obvious, the path to doing it successfully is anything but.
Build a Meetup Group? Awesome!
But where the heck do I start?
Maybe you've been sitting on your group idea for years.
You've brainstormed names, jotted down event ideas in a Google doc and even gotten all giddy over potential revenue.
If you're super committed, maybe you signed up for an organizer account on Meetup, assuring yourself that you'd use it as soon as you finished your certification, dropped 20 pounds, quit your day job (or whatever it is that you're waiting for).
But even with the best intentions, most would be Meetup group leaders end up abandoning the project, allowing others to swoop in and take a stab while they remain quiet.
Some throw in the towel before they even start, paralyzed by imposter syndrome: "who I am to step up and lead?"
Others get started, but soon become discouraged and overwhelmed. They don't have a system in place to grow their membership, fill their events or monetize their group without coming across as "just in it for the money".
And here's why this is irreversibly crippling.
As an already busy entrepreneur with clients to serve, services to fulfill and maybe even a day job to get to, you literally can't afford to wing it. You need to get this right.
And luckily for you, there are actually very few people out there doing Meetup right. In all likelihood, others have given up on their Meetup group idea or built a group that struggles with attendance and engagement.
This means that even if you're late to the game, there's still a golden opportunity for you to jump in and build a profitable Meetup group.
That is if you can avoid the same deadly Meetup mistakes that your competitors are making.
The 4 Reasons Why Most Meetup Groups Fail
(and how to guarantee yours won't!)
Reason 1
Underestimating What it Takes
Building a successful Meetup Group isn't particularly hard or complicated but there are so many moving pieces and potential failing points along the way.
What types of events to offer?
Where and how often should you host your events?
How will you grow your membership and fill your events?
Will you charge for your events, and if so, how much?
How will you go about making offers to your members?
Will you have guest speakers and if so, should you pay them?
How will you prevent no shows?
What about tech? How do you use the online Meetup platform to run your group?
Should you have a Facebook group too?
These are just some of the many question you'll need to answer along the way.
And most entrepreneurs approach their Meetup group as just another thing to do or learn. The thing is, you can't treat Meetup as just another marketing strategy.
When done right, your Meetup group becomes a living breathing community that will provide a constant source of clients and income for your business. But to achieve this, you must master the moving pieces, be 100% devoted to your group's success and CONSISTENTLY nurture your relationships with the people in it.
Reason 2
Neglecting the Brand Experience
Most Meetup group leaders don't realize that the brand experience they create determines whether a guest becomes a loyal member or leaves and never returns.
In fact, most Meetup group leaders don't even consider the brand experience at all! They just do what's easiest.
But the truth is, whether you're intentional about your brand experience or not, your guests WILL leave with an experience.
Maybe they'll leave...
- Laughing because you kick off every meeting with a mini comedy show,
- Raving about your stylish venue,
- Inspired to engage in the world with more kindness after your motivational closing.
Or maybe they'll leave...
- Confused because your "spiritual" Meetup met at a sports bar,
- Doubting you as the leader because you didn't create a safe container to connect,
- Wondering if your group is for real because only 3 people showed up.
If you want your guests to come back again and again, and rave about your group to everyone they know, then you must be intentional about your group's brand experience!
The messaging, the venue, the style, the way you lead, the types of events you offer... all must be consistent and aligned with an intentional experience that your guests will remember and you will become known for.
Reason 3
Leading with Pushy Sales Tactics
Your members join your Meetup group for community and connection... to make new friends, engage in meaningful conversation, have an uplifting OFFLINE experience with other humans.
The last thing they want is to show up at your event and get sold to. Or worse, get an offer in an email before they even attend.
As the leader, you'll need to shift your perspective from "what can I get from my group" (more discovery sessions, more clients, more money, etc.), to "how can I facilitate the meaningful connection my members long for?"
This may sound contradictory to using Meetup as a means to grow your business, but if you're able to shift your perspective, while implementing a few key strategies, you'll attract what you want from your Meetup group so much faster.
Reason 4
Falling Into the Short Term Trap
How often do you get up in the morning, look at your to-do list, and get sucked into all the short term things you need to do?
- How often are you in overwhelm?
- Feeling stressed out about your to-do list?
- Freaking out about “gotta make money NOW” or “Where's my next client going to come from?”
How much time do you spend spend in this space? Versus feeling confident in knowing where your clients and money are coming from because you have a system in place that always delivers?
If you're acting like me in the first few years, it's probably all the time - the short term trap. The hustle trap. It doesn't work.
And hey, I don't blame you for wanting overnight results. I mean, we exist in a entrepreneurial culture where online gurus are preaching "6-figures in one launch" and "make thousands while you relax on the beach drinking your piña colada".
But no one's talking about the years of work that went into the business before the 6-figure launch, or what sometimes happens after the launch when that kind of money isn't sustainable and the business goes under.
What most Meetup group leaders don't realize when they start, is that Meeup is a long-term game. If you want to see results from your group, you can't throw in the towel as soon as something doesn't go right.
If you can remain focused on the big picture and stay committed to making smart tweaks to improve your success, you'll be able to build your group into a reliable and steady source of clients that generate an extra, 5K, 10K, 20K or more per month.
Shh...I'm going to let you in on a little secret
Out of the many entrepreneurs who attempt to tap into the power of Meetup and live events to build their business, only a few will be successful, while the rest will fizzle out.
And the main reason for this, as you've probably seen by now, is that while the barriers to entry are relatively low...
...the barriers toward EFFECTIVE EXECUTION are relatively high.
But as long as you can avoid the biggest missteps that cause most would-be group leaders to fail, the path is paved for you to build a profitable and impactful group.
The key ingredient to all of this is mastering the details.
And with your permission, that's what I'd love to show you how to do.
THANKS TO THE KNOWLEDGE AND TOOLS IN MEETUP MASTERY, I HAD 50 MEMBERS JOIN WITHIN THE FIRST WEEK OF LAUNCHING.
Now, a year and a half later, my group has grown to 750 members, 21 paid members and we have 4 corporate sponsors. In addition to my monthly events, I lead an annual retreat which helps fill my private coaching spots every time.
I had wanted to start my Meetup group for over a year and finally launched it in less than two months thanks to Meetup Mastery!
The course gave me everything I needed to make my group a reality without having to spend countless hours setting up my meetup, writing copy, and figuring out how to make it attract my ideal members.
This was thanks to the incredibly helpful examples and templates inside the Resource Center, that I could easily modify and use within my own group.
I also loved that I could ask a question in the Facebook group and quickly get a detailed response. This interaction added to the value of the course.

THERE'S SO MANY PEOPLE SHOWING UP TO MY EVENTS I HAVE TO FIND A BIGGER SPACE!
Jessie May's Meetup Mastery is BRILLIANT. She walks you through step-by-step, holds your hand and helps you put the systems in place so you can pull it off. She also helps you deal with your fears and mindset around it so you can show up in a big way right from the start.
My results were immediate. My new meetup group is growing quickly, is highly engaged and I have events and speakers lined up for 7 months. We had 37 RSVP's for our kick-off event, and I doubled my list in the first month of running my meetup group!
But here's some results I did NOT expect: I learned A TON about systems and organization. I run 3 businesses (a restaurant, coaching business, and a networking group), and thanks to what I learned in this program - I stay out of overwhelm, and that's worth 10X the investment."

Introducing...
A complete A-Z implementation plan for confidently building your Meetup group or live community.
After 10 years, 700+ events and 2,850 members, I've taken everything I've learned that has allowed me to grow my Meetup group into a 6-figure business, and put it together into step-by-step program that not only teaches you the high-level theory but the actual execution of how you can do the same.
Meetup Mastery isn't so much a training program, as it is a hands-on implementation program.
Yes, you'll learn the strategies behind everything you do, but more importantly, you'll have a meticulous, step-by-step implementation plan that leaves nothing out as you go through the process.
The result: an incredibly profitable log-term asset ready to be profited from for the rest of your entrepreneurial life.
Meetup Mastery is the ONLY program of its kind that…
1. Helps you implement exactly what it takes to quickly see results from your Meetup group or live community.
No fluff, no unnecessary modules and no extraneous strategies that might look sexy at first glance but do nothing but overwhelm you and sabotage your success.
2. Walks you through designing your brand experience.
The breakdown of what you need to do to create a memorable experience that has your members coming back for more and sharing your group with all their friends.
3. Shows you how to leverage your group to build your business without sleazy sales tactics.
No desperate pitches or pushy promotions. Instead, you'll learn how to foster the community and connection your members long for, while positioning yourself as the expert your members trust and need.
4. Teaches you how to lead.
How to be the confident, powerful and relatable leader that sets you apart from all the other Meetup group leaders.
So if you’re ready to finally build your Meetup group or live community while avoiding overwhelm and costly mistakes...
Here's how we'll make it happen:
Module 1
Building Your Memorable Meetup Brand
Without a clear brand, you'll have trouble attracting members, filling your events and earning income through your Meetup group or live community.
That's why we start with your brand - because it influences everything moving forward; from the words you use on your Meetup site, to the venues where you host your events, to the types of events you offer and so much more.
The extra awesome thing about this module, is that because your brand needs to be consistent across your entire business (and Meetup is just one facet of your business), you'll be able to take the work you do here and apply it across your business in general.
Module Highlights:
- Choose an enticing name for your group while avoiding the biggest naming mistake that immediately repels new members.
- Create your ideal group member profile so you can position your group to only attract members who are likely to work with you in the future.
- Write a powerful purpose statement that you can share at every event to get your members excited about being part of what your group stands for.
- Craft a clear and compelling elevator pitch, so when a potential member asks about your group, you know exactly what to say to get them excited to join!
- Define your group benefits - the clear and desirable results your members can expect to receive from joining your group.
- Clarify your group's brand personality using my Brand Personality Quiz.
- Determine your group's emotional impact - the way you want your members to FEEL when they attend your events.
- Establish clear brand values that establish trust with your members.
- Determine your "intolerances" - those things your group will absolutely not put up with, such as competition or gossip.
- Uncover your group's "edge" - the thing that makes your group stand out from all the rest and inspires your members to join and keep coming back.
- Create a library of words and phrases to sprinkle throughout your written and spoken word (at events and on your Meetup site), to make your brand voice memorable and recognizable.
- Determine your brand style which will help you know where to host your events and what to wear as the leader.
Module 2
Becoming the Leader Others Want to Follow
This isn't about changing who you are to attract more group members, it's about confidently and mindfully stepping into your leadership style so your energy is clean and clear.
This makes it easier for your members to trust you, connect with you and respect you as the leader.
Which is important to your success because if you go through the time and energy of building your group, but people feel unclear and uneasy in your presence, they won't want to return.
Module Highlights:
- Discover the 5 characteristics all great leaders have in common.
- Clarify and confidently step into your unique leadership style.
- Write your leadership story - you can share your story at events to create connection and trust with your tribe.
- Learn how to handle the natural fear that arises when you step up to lead, so it doesn't stop you from making your impact.
- Develop strategies to manage your energy so you can lead with enthusiasm, even as an introvert.
Module 3
Setting Strategic Meetup Goals
Just like in other parts of your life and business, if you want to see results from your Meetup group, you must first be clear about the specific results you want to achieve.
Once you’re clear, you can break those desired results down into simple action steps.
In this module, you'll learn my goal setting strategy that has made it possible for me to attract more than enough clients, fill my groups, build a 6-figure business and positively impact my community using Meetup and live events.
Module Highlights:
- Learn my 3 golden rules for setting achievable Meetup goals PLUS the biggest goal-setting mistake most Meetup group leaders make.

Module 4
Designing and Hosting Profitable Events
If you’ve felt the calling to design and host live events that are not only profitable, but also transformative and life changing, then you'll love this module!
I'll be sharing how time and time again, I’ve filled rooms, transformed lives, and made GREAT money from designing and hosting LIVE events… and how YOU can too!
Module Highlights:
- Embrace the one mindset shift that will take you from pushing and forcing, to gracefully bringing in an extra 2K, 5K, 10K, or much more from your group every single month.

- Design beautiful event banner graphics for your Meetup event page.
Module 5
Masterful Marketing for Meetup Success
If you want your group to be successful, you need to get the word out about your events so your local community begins to recognize your name and show up live.
Unfortunately, this is where many group leaders get overwhelmed, shut down and don’t put in the effort to make their Meetup group truly successful.
Lucky for you, I’m an overly organized perfectionist who has created a step-by-step, repeatable marketing system that fills my events every time;-) And I share that and more with you in this module!
Module Highlights:
- Learn how to use Meetup's email platform to communicate with your members between events.
- Discover the 3 types of marketing emails you need to regularly send to your members, and easily write them using my done-for you templates.
- Carefully plan your email marketing schedule so you don't bombard your members with too much communication.

Module 6
Making Money with Meetup and Live Events
This is where most Meetup group leaders make deadly mistakes that run their Meetup group into the ground. Let's not have this be you, ok?
While adding an extra 2K, 5K, 10K or more per month from your Meetup group is totally doable, Meetup is a unique platform that people join to be part of community - not get sold to.
You must be strategic about how you go about making money from your group so your efforts don't backfire.

- Explore 4 event pricing options and choose the option that works best for you!
Module 7
Collaborating with Guest Speakers
As your Meetup group grows, you'll begin to receive more and more speaking requests.
Guest speakers can be a wonderful way to provide additional value to your Meetup group on topics related to your area of expertise.
But beware; when you invite a guest speaker to your group, they represent your brand so you need to be selective.
Module Highlights
- Learn my 4-step process to choosing guest speakers that align with your Meetup brand and avoiding guest speakers that could damage your group's reputation.
- Modify my speaker agreement and application to use as your own.
- Create your guest speaker instruction packet outlining exactly what you need to co-create a successful event, plus copy and paste social media blurbs they can use to help spread the word.
- Discover two types of speaker models and choose the best fit for your group.
Module 8

I FILLED MY NEW SIGNATURE PROGRAM... JUST BY SHARING IT WITH MY COMMUNITY!
I didn't even promote it to my entire group... I just shared it with the women who've been most active in my sisterhood circles... and it FILLED!
Looking back, I was hesitant to sign up for Meetup Mastery because I was just starting my business and thought maybe I should wait until I had things more figured out. And boy am I glad I took that leap because Meetup Mastery was exactly what I needed to be successful in my business.
I had been an elementary teacher for the last 17 years, and my life was so impacted from an organic superfood company that I decided to pursue this as a business so I could help others feel the same benefits I did. But I didn’t know how to share my message and couldn't see the “missing pieces” until I took Meetup Mastery with Jessie May.
I'm beyond grateful for Jessie May’s leadership, and way of helping me see myself and my brand and shine it out to the world!

Frequently Asked Questions
What my most successful students asked before joining Meetup Mastery:
Yes! If you're committed to the process and put in the work to build a group people love, you'll naturally attract clients and make money!
When people MEET you – and truly connect with your essence and your passion – they HIRE you. It’s just how things happen (people want to work with people they like and trust).
Here are 3 arguments for focusing on local:
1. The online world is really crowded these days, making it difficult to stand out and be noticed by your ideal clients.
When you focus on building a local following, you're a big fish in a little pond making it easier for your ideal clients to find you.
2. You've probably heard that people need to know, like and trust you before feeling confident enough to hire you.
Well, nothing accelerates know, like and trust FASTER than spending time with you in person.
3. Although we're more "connected" with social media than ever, there's never been a time when people have felt more disconnected.
This is leading to an uprising of local communities across the world to help foster the connection that people are so desperately longing for. NOW is the time to ride this wave!
That all being said... nobody says you have to choose! You can do both!
I built my business to 6-figures using just Meetup, but I've expanded my online presence over the more recent years because I'm getting into creating online courses.
It's really up to you and your goals!
No. Most of what you'll learn in this course can be applied to any platform where you want to run your live community.
In terms of tech and setting up your group online, I will be using Meetup in my walk through tutorials because this is the platform I use and I'm familiar with.
No!
The sooner you start growing your Meetup group, the more hot leads you'll have at your fingertips once you're ready to fill a program or attract one-on-one clients.
Plus spending time with your ideal clients now, will give you so much insight into how you can serve them better down the road.
Meetup Mastery is an 8-module, self-led course. As soon as you join, you'll receive access to all content, for as long as this courses exists, so you can take it as fast or as slow as you like.
Meetup Mastery materials include video lessons for you to watch, assignments for you to complete and practical worksheets, templates and examples to help you put the lessons to use.
For as long as the course exists!
It's up to you!
Some students already have a Meetup group. If this is you, you'll want to improve upon the group you already have and consider doing an official relaunch if you feel that's the best approach for your unique situation.
If you don't have a Meetup group yet, you could launch as soon as you complete the course, or hold off for a few months until you're ready.
You have access to the course for as long as it exists, so it will be there for you to refer back to.
Yes! But please follow the modules in order because they strategically build upon each other to set you up for success!
While I'm no longer running Meetup Mastery LIVE, there are a couple ways you can get support as you go through the modules:
1. Join The Impact Tribe. The Impact Tribe membership includes two monthly live calls and a Facebook group where you can receive coaching and ask questions as you work through the modules.
PLUS, as an Impact Tribe member, you have access to my private coaching calendar at over 75% savings (60-min sessions are only $97 instead of $497).
2. Book a private, 60-min Meetup Consulting Session with me for $497.

Meetup Mastery is PERFECT for you if…
- You're just getting started with your Meetup group and want to make sure you absolutely NAIL IT right out of the gate by using only the most powerful, easy-to-follow Meetup building strategies.
- You've been trying to build your Meetup group for months (or maybe even years) but haven't seen the results you were hoping for... your event attendance is low, and you haven't been able to attract clients or earn income through your group.
- You have no problem investing a couple hours per week as long as you know that every bit of energy you invest is a strategic and meaningful step forward in building a successful Meetup group.
- In fact, you're ALREADY investing time and energy doing things like writing epic blog posts, dropping truth bombs on social media, designing lead magnets or other things you keep hearing you "need" to be doing. Only problem is, without a dedicated following to share them with, you've experienced discouraging "why the heck do I even bother" results.
- You feel a flutter of fear and excitement when you think about stepping up to lead your tribe... being seen and vulnerable is scary, but changing lives through your transformational teaching is well worth the discomfort.
- You're aware of the amazing opportunities that will open up once you have an engaged and growing Meetup group. You know... new clients, speaking engagements, podcast interviews, etc. And you're EXTRA excited that Meetup Mastery includes BIG BONUSES like the Resource Center templates, examples and checklists that will put you on the fast track to success with your group (opening you up to those opportunities so much faster).
- You feel confident grabbing your access details knowing you have 14 days to test it out. It's simple: either you do the work and be on your way to experiencing the most fulfilling and profitable endeavor of your entrepreneurial career, or you send me and my team a quick message asking us to hit undo on this whole "build your profitable Meetup group" experiment.
If you said “yes” to at least 5 of the above, I can’t wait to meet you inside Meetup Mastery!

"At the time, I already had a Meetup group with about 350 members, but I didn’t have a clue what I was doing, how to even use Meetup's basic functions, and had no idea of my Meetup’s long-term potential. When I found Jessie May, I knew I had to work with her.
What I didn’t know was just how much I would learn and how much value I'd get for the investment!
Over the modules she patiently walks you through exercises to establish a firm foundation for your Meetup. From simple things, like how to craft a welcome message, and identify your ideal member; to more complex, like developing your personal brand and stepping into your role as a leader.
Not only is Jessie May highly successful in business, but she’s extremely knowledgeable about how to use Meetup to create community.
It’s clear that she loves what she does because her love for her participants and desire for our success comes through in every interaction - she always makes you feel like you’re the most important person in the world to her.
Jessie May is a true gem of a person, and a consummate professional."
Rebecca Rowles,
Conscious Relationship Coach
I'VE SPENT THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS ON “BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT,” BUT NEVER GOT THE HUGELY VALUABLE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN MEETUP MASTERY.
"I've been looking for a way to reach my people and build a community around a shared need for Gluten Free living. Coaching programs kept talking about “finding my people,” but I just didn’t know how to make it happen.
This course was the piece in my business development I've been missing.
Jessie May is so generous with the information provided and her background in marketing shone through in the detailed templates, worksheets, design questions, and video classes.
The Meetup Mastery course has all the steps and processes it takes to create a successful, repeatable way to meet potential clients.
Jessie May has gone above and beyond by offering all of the methods that have made her Meetup group so successful.
Actual value: Priceless!"
Edie Hoppin,
Gluten Free Living Expert
THE BONUS IN WHICH JESSIE MAY AND HER TEAM HELPED BRAND MY MEETUP PAGE JUST PUT THE VALUE OVER THE TOP!
"I got MUCH MORE than I bargained for with Jessie May’s Meetup Mastery Course! I highly recommend it!
The modules were thorough and easy to follow. Jessie May took time to understand my brand, my needs, and what I wanted to get out of the course. The Facebook group allowed for LOTS of candid discussions to tweak what we are doing and provide honest feedback.
I looked extensively for courses and books to help me use Meetup to grow my business, and this was hands-down the best thing I came across. If you're considering using Meetup to build your business, this course is the best value out there!"
Terri Vanover,
Divorce Coach, Choosing to Rise
MEETUP IS NOT ONLY A PLATFORM WHERE I CAN ADD VALUE TO MY COMMUNITY, BUT IT'S ALSO AN INCREDIBLE PIPELINE FOR FUTURE CLIENTS!
"I first considered joining the Meetup Mastery course after attending a Daring Divas event last October (when I visited Jessie May from Luxembourg), and seeing the incredible value of her community.
However, it was only when I realized the value of having a Meetup group from a business perspective that I knew I had to create my own!
I’ve really enjoyed the Meetup Mastery course. It has been fun to work through the modules together with the other participants in the class, and be able to share hopes, fears and dreams related to our Meetup groups in our Facebook group and during our Zoom group coaching sessions."
I have a launch date for my first meet up for September, and I look forward to finessing the last details before starting a real kick a$$ group."
Joanna Denton,
Public Speaking Coach, Founder of Luxembourg Powerhouses
EACH TRAINING MODULE’S CONTENT IS SUCH HIGH QUALITY.
"The content is such high quality and the examples provided in the worksheets helped stimulate ideas as I answered the questions for my own group.
I have participated in Meetups (other than Jessie May’s) that seem unfocused and lacked leadership and direction. I do not want to be another one of those groups.
Having attended Jessie May's events for over a year, I knew she could help me start my group on the right foot.
This course has helped me feel prepared to launch my Meetup group, and confident in the value it will provide my members."
Stephanie Vinton,
CEO at Vintost Consulting
NOW I KNOW HOW TO ORGANIZE MY EVENTS, PLAN THEM EFFECTIVELY, MAKE THEM ATTRACTIVE, AND SERVE MY COMMUNITY, ALL WHILE FEEDING MY BUSINESS.
"The Meetup Mastery course helped me relaunch my stagnant Meetup group, this time being very clear about what to do.
What I really loved about the course is that I didn’t have to listen to a long video/audio for each module. Instead, each module had multiple videos and each video focused on one main point within the module. This made it SO easy to do the course!
Jessie May is a great instructor with the experience to back up her teachings. I learned so much, and got lots of inspiration!"
Kim Marie,
Life Empowerment Guide, Founder of the Feminine Wisdom Rising Meetup
BEFORE TAKING THIS COURSE I WAS WINGING IT - I DIDN’T REALIZE HOW IMPORTANT THE DETAILS ARE TO THE SUCCESS OF A MEETUP - NOW I FEEL SO MUCH MORE ON PURPOSE!
"Jessie May is the master of creating smart, engaged community.
She showed us how to create exciting events along with the right marketing and messaging to inspire engagement. PLUS, her branding teachings are super valuable for ALL aspects of my business so that's a huge bonus.
I’m so excited for my Unicorn Sister Alliance special events that I created during this course. They'll be offered regularly, with a simple structure making it easy to bring great value AND not have to spend hours preparing.
Macy Harjot Matarazzo,
Love Coach, Founder of the Unicorn Sister Alliance Meetup
JESSIE MAY IS THE BEST TRAINER I KNOW WHO CAN HELP YOU CREATE A MEETUP THAT ATTRACTS LONG-LASTING CLIENTS AND PROFITS WITHOUT SLIMY SALES TACTICS.
"With so many options as to whom to learn from, when it comes to building your tribe of loyal clients & customers, I can only recommend a few people. Jessie May is one of them.
If you haven’t tried to grow your business using Meetup (or have but your group is struggling), then I sincerely recommend learning from one of the most sincere, brilliant and results-oriented trainers I know. You won’t be disappointed in Jessie May’s training or events!"
Theresa Douillard,
Interpersonal Communication Skills Trainer
MY HOPES FOR THE MEETUP MASTERY COURSE WERE MET AND EXCEEDED AT EVERY TURN.
"Nobody is doing a more professional and impressive job of using Meetups to grow their business than Jessie May!
Between weekly videos, worksheets, Zoom calls, the treasure trove of sample Meetup resources available, and the ongoing Facebook group collaboration with the other course participants, the opportunities to learn and bounce ideas off of others in the group are priceless.
The examples and templates in the Resource Center were extremely professional and well thought out. Having templates for emails, sign in sheets, guest speaker agreements, etc. saveD me tons of time! "
Leigh Schopp,
Financial Advisor
I'VE TAKEN MANY ONLINE COURSES, AND THIS ONE IS IN MY TOP 3 FOR QUALITY AND EASE OF ACHIEVING RESULTS. I LOVED HOW EVERYTHING WAS SO ORGANIZED AND CLEAR.
"In 8 weeks, I came out with more clarity about what to do with my coaching business, and how to position myself as a leader again, while making the most impact.
Jessie May delivered the content in a way that helped me relax into this new endeavor and complete it. She has an uncanny ability to make you feel like you don’t have to “know it all” to take action and start seeing results.
*HI-5* to anyone who’s about to jump in and work with Jessie May. I’d highly recommend it!"
Tera Greene,

HER MEETUP GROUP APPROACH TO BUILDING YOUR BUSINESS OFFERS SOMETHING UNIQUE TO PREVIOUS MARKETING STRATEGIES I'VE LEARNED. THE BONUSES WERE WELL WORTH SIGNING UP EARLY.
"Jessie May’s coaching style is intuitive, precise and welcoming.
I enjoyed the sense of community amongst participants the Meetup Mastery course provides via the live calls & Facebook group. The course content & continued access to the resource materials are so valuable.
I highly recommend this course for anyone at any level of their business and/or Meetup group creation. Thank you Jessie May for sharing your gifts, spirit & enthusiasm!!"
