You are ready to shape your business entirely your way 

But you lack the clarity to make it happen.

Stuck in a business model that charges by the hour, you’re searching for that missing piece to your ideal business concept.

While you have plenty of ideas for new concepts, transforming them into a solid offer is a challenge – especially as a creative generalist with diverse skills and interests.

What you truly want is an exciting business concept that perfectly aligns with your expertise, passions, and broader vision – one that is scalable.

You’re ready to do business that excites you again, earning more money and enjoying greater freedom than ever before.

Smart people with big dreams are usually the ones who struggle the most to achieve their goals because they get overwhelmed with all the details and the complexity involved in running a successful project.

However, if you are committed to achieving your vision and you are up for a challenge, I suggest you reach out to Melanie for fast and measurable results.

Your facilitator and mentor: Melanie 

I am Melanie van der Storm, the creator of Idea Shapers. I’m passionate about crafting innovative concepts and can talk for hours about developing new business ideas and designing the ideal entrepreneurial lifestyle.

My expertise lies in innovation, marketing and facilitation.

After an international career in marketing, I began freelancing in 2016. I helped B2B scale-ups find and claim their market positioning and scale their business.

As a certified facilitator, I developed and delivered impactful group programs and workshops for over 500 solo entrepreneurs at prestigious organizations like Google and Startupbootcamp.

Now, I help ambitious freelancers like you reinvent your business and craft scalable offers that genuinely reflect your value, empowering you to live your dream life.

Why? Because I see so many talented freelancers feeling stuck in their careers, hesitant to make choices and take bold action. Having walked that path myself, I understand that clarity, decisive action, and accountability are crucial for achieving your dreams. I can’t wait to support you on your journey to becoming the passionate entrepreneur you’ve always aspired to be.

I would recommend Idea Shapers to anyone who, like me, is struggeling with focus and has many ideas but also for those who are looking for a new way in live that brings them joy and uses their potential. 

Melanie helped me to give shape to my business ideas. Through visualizing personal values ​​and goals I learned in which way I come to full advantage of my potential. Melanie made this very insightful, using illustrations and mind mapping, and it surprised me how she was able to complete me whenever I was a bit confused.

Melanie is clearly skilled and experienced in the field of professional development and has a genuine interest in the person opposite of her.
