“The purpose of business is to help you live the life
you want. To play to your strengths and be yourself.”

Consulting services
for small business owners

Magdalena Cevelova

Do you want to run a successful business while living the desired life? To make money without destroying your health or your soul? To be yourself in business and make the most of your gifts, talents and strengths? That’s exactly the kind of business I can help you create.

I offer business consulting and mentoring for freelancers and sole proprietors in the services sector. My specialty is authentic marketing, pricing and personal branding.

I offer practical and workable solutions that require some work but deliver long-term results. Together, we’ll reconfigure your marketing so that it’s fun and easy to manage.

First, I’ll help you figure out what’s wrong. Then, together, we’ll develop a new strategy and the specific steps you need to take.

My advice will move you the furthest when:

  • You feel like you’re stuck in business and don’t know which way to go.

  • You’re not earning as much as you’d like.

  • Your clients are mainly people you don’t want to work with.

  • You feel overwhelmed, and don’t have time for yourself, or for business development.

  • You want to increase your prices, but you’re afraid of losing customers.

  • Your website doesn’t do what you expect it to do.

  • You’re paying for expensive advertising, but the right clients still aren’t coming.

  • The tools you use either don’t work or drive you nuts.

I’m probably not the right one:

  • When you’re looking for someone to do the annoying marketing for you, or a miracle ad that will bring you clients effortlessly and quickly.

  • If you need to write copy, create advertising or deal with the technical setup of tools such as PPC, SEO or Facebook advertising.

  • When you are at the very beginning of your entrepreneurial journey and you don’t know exactly what you want to sell and to whom.

How I work

Consultations and mentoring take place on-line via the Zoom app. I value your time, so I won’t waste it. The very first meeting is a paid consultation and we’ll be working right from the start. The time I spend with your business before the meeting is included in the consultation fee.

If it becomes apparent during the consultation that I am not the right fit for you, we will stop the meeting after 15 minutes and I will not charge you anything. I do not send any written output from the consultation. If you are tired of taking notes, you can record the entire session.

To prepare well for our appointment, please, fill out the marketing plan and send it to me at least one day in advance. You can find the template here:

Magdalena Cevelova

Business mentor and SMB consultant

I´m based in Prague, Czech Republic. I work with freelancers and entrepreneurs who do business with their heart, use their intuition and see their business as part of their personal development. They are often classified as multipotential and/or highly sensitive. I help them sort out their thoughts, make the right decisions and regain their energy and appetite for business.

I studied psychology and pedagogy at the Faculty of Arts in Prague. I hold an MBA in marketing from the VŠEM university, Prague. In addition, I have a therapeutic background – training in Gestalt psychotherapy, long-term courses in systemic constellations and EFT certified training.

I have been freelancing since 2003. Prior to that I spent another 9 years in Public Relations, media, and marketing.

What my clients say

I look forward to meeting Madla every time. It’s always a pleasant, fruitful, exploratory joint creation. It helps me a lot that she is my partner, an erudite expert in strategic decision-making in my company. I also incredibly enjoy how aptly and sensitively she works with tarot cards. The open heart, impartiality, friendliness and professional approach in all aspects only enhances the whole impression and result.

Irena Dutková, CK Duhový koník

I really liked how Madla was able to combine business and marketing practice with psychology. We didn’t just talk about money, we talked about life and happiness. We looked for ways that would be best not only for the company, but for me personally. And that’s why I can recommend it to anyone who is facing an important decision, wants to gain perspective and is looking for someone to help them find new options.

Jiri RosteckyJiří Rostecký, business podcaster and mentor

Freelancing is like a decathlon. There are a thousand other things you need to master besides your field, and good advice is worth its weight in gold. Those from Madla were a great fit and I should have indulged them much sooner.

Markéta Miková, Real Estate PR & Communications

I recommend Madla’s consultations wherever I go. They work, I think, on multiple levels. Firstly, after just a few sessions, I have clarified and better priced all my services, and secondly, I have become more at ease and free in the whole business.
