The monthly membership for creative small business owners who want to do more effective marketing more consistently ⚡️
Making Good Happen is designed to help you create a marketing plan that will support your business and goals — and give you the ongoing accountability, support, and tools to make sure you consistently execute it.
Making Good Happen is for you if you’re a maker, business owner, or service provider and…
you have more ideas than you know what to do with, but rarely see them come to fruition
you feel like you’re stuck in a permanent state of overwhelm with all of the marketing things you “should” be doing
you find yourself constantly “researching”, consuming, and ideating… making vague plans without ever actually moving the needle
you aren’t yet seeing the impact and sales you know your business is capable of making
Nodding your head “yes” to one or more of these?
How amazing would it feel to:
have a tailor-made marketing plan to help you achieve your business goals
know *EXACTLY* what marketing activities are on your plate each week (and do them consistently)
take so much action you hardly recognize yourself
be a part of [the *BEST*] community of other creative biz owners to lean on
make more sales and a bigger impact than ever before
Making Good Happen is here to help you do exactly that.
“This program has without a doubt been one of the best investments I’ve made in myself and my business.”
— Miranda, owner + jewelry designer at And Arlen
Hey, I’m Lauren 🥰
I’m an amateur baker, chronic procrastinator, solo travel lover, recovering perfectionist, bright color enthusiast, and Murder, She Wrote devotee.
And, also - a marketing coach for creative small business owners who want to get out of their own way and start taking action so they can have a business that makes them income and creates an impact.
After 8 years in corporate marketing, I quit my great-on-paper job in 2017 and started selling my handmade calligraphy greeting cards to my mom’s retail store.
A lot of ups, downs, and all-arounds later… I’ve owned a retail store (and passed it on to the next lucky owner!), have a stationery line, host the Making Good podcast, and get to work with some of the most amazing small businesses around.
Here are a few things I believe:
💛 I believe in putting your values and what matters most to you at the heart of everything you do in your business.
💛 I believe that small businesses that lead with their values can make a huge impact on the world.
💛 And I believe that great marketing is one of the best ways to make that happen.
If you want to make a strategic, intentional marketing plan — and then CONSISTENTLY execute it (that’s the hard part!)…
… so you can experience the results and make the impact you KNOW your business is capable of…
I made Making Good Happen just for you.
more consistent, intentional marketing ➡️ bigger results & greater impact

Premium Members have access to everything in the Standard Membership, along with Office Hours.

Making Good Happen is designed to help you get the right things done in your marketing and business… not add to your “to do” list for the sake of it 🥰
Think of Making Good Happen as a “choose your own adventure” kind of membership. How much time you spend in the membership will vary based on your business needs, bandwidth, working style, etc.
-
A new private podcast episode is released EVERY SINGLE WEEKDAY. Whaaat? I know.
-
We’d love to have you! The meeting times for the live events vary but are generally between 9am and 5pm Pacific time. However, not all members attend the events — there are plenty of ways to participate in this group and community aside from the calls.
-
Making Good Happen has members located in many different time zones, and we also have members with day jobs. For this reason, we vary the timing of events widely.
I also want to say: there is no expectation whatsoever that you attend every event.
(I would be surprised if you COULD attend all of the events.)
Making Good Happen has a variety of different types of events and sessions — come for the ones that make sense for you given your business needs, interests and schedule.
-
I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all marketing.
Just like we’re all different, so are our businesses and goals.
Making Good Happen is designed to help you custom-build a marketing plan for your specific business.
Our current members are made up of both product-based businesses and service-based businesses.
If you’d like to talk through whether Making Good Happen is a good fit for you based on your specific business, feel free to start a conversation via DM over on Instagram: @laurentilden.

“I cannot say enough good things about Lauren and MGH! The marketing guidance is consistently simple and highly effective, the tools evolve with the needs of the group, and the community is packed with skill, compassion, and support.
It's amplified my confidence as both a marketer and a business owner and fuels my motivation every day!”
Stacey, Monday Made

“Lauren has put together an amazing program with Making Good Happen! She's so sweet and incredibly generous with her time and insight into all things small business. The community she's built is equally encouraging and helps keep me going even on the hard days of running a small biz.
The resources are a goldmine as well...particularly if you need help setting a strategy and consistent marketing plan. MGH has definitely helped me stay on task and check off my to do list rather than aimlessly wandering as is my usual habit.”

“Making Good Happen is worth way beyond the monthly subscription fee. Lauren provides a smorgasbord of helpful information that you can pick and choose what best works for your business and what you need in the moment.
I felt like I had a good start on my business, and the resources, information, and community I've gained through Making Good Happen is allowing me to feel more confident as a business owner. I am learning and gaining exactly what I need to take my business to higher levels of success.”

”Before MGH, I felt like I was winging it with no real plans or guidance, and just hoping customers would find me, love me, and become instant super fans. I was discouraged and frustrated and knew I needed change, but had no idea how to even get started.
Even after just the first month of MGH, I felt like I had defined my business, had clear goals, and had a focused path forward with actionable tasks to make things happen.
Now I feel like I have endless resources, a support system, a place to turn for feedback, and am actually excited to continue to build my business.”

“This group has been life-changing for me.”
“Lauren has this magnetic energy that just screams, ‘you’ve got what it takes!’”
“Before joining MGH I felt like I was alone in trying to market my business. I previously spent thousands of dollars on programs that didn’t do anything for me or my business.
Lauren is that best friend in your marketing class who wants you to succeed. The know-how and enthusiasm she shares with all of us is incomparable to anything else I’ve experienced.”
“Making Good Happen has changed the way that I plan, prepare and think about my marketing.”
