Helping freelance trainers to learn, connect and collaborate

About Trainer Talk

Where freelance trainers come together to connect and collaborate in a friendly and supportive community that means you never have to face the fun of the freelance roller coaster on your own again! 

Trainer Talk is a monthly membership where Trainers can meet virtually and in person to celebrate, commiserate and provide advice, support and encouragement to each other. 

Founded by Sharon Gaskin in 2010, the Trainer Talk community has grown year on year to be the number one resource for trainers who want to grow their business and navigate the challenges of freelance life.

Community members describe Trainer Talk as a lifeline that keeps them sane and many of them say they wouldn't still be in business without it! 

Why You Should Join Us

Have you ever felt like no-one understands the challenges you're facing? 

Or that no-one is listening to the great stuff you're putting out there? 

You don't know who to turn to, to talk about marketing, pricing, or what to put on your website, social media etc. 

And who you can talk to when it all feels too much?

Trainer Talk is a community of people who get you, get it and help you get on with it!
