I’m Mieke Haveman, a Dutch coach/counselor specializing in online work. I’ve studied English for a few years and always had a love for the language, that is why I work internationally. This website is aimed at English speakers [and of course Dutch speakers who don’t mind an English language course]. My Dutch work is a collaboration with Debbie van den Berg and can be found here. 

Why marketing? 

Marketing is something I really missed when I was studying to become a coach and a counselor. I already knew I wanted my own practice and after all those years of learning I was totally unprepared for the marketing side of things. I was lucky enough to find a good coach who taught me the basics. After that I kept up the learning through books and various online courses and webinars. When I started as a tutor in how to counsel online, I found out I was not the only one ill prepared for business. Many of my students felt the same way. Especially when it came to online marketing. I started teaching more about online marketing in our classes. And I enjoy that so much that I want to help more people.

I remember how lost I felt when I first started out online.

All that jargon flying around that I did not understand. The simplest task took me ages. It doesn’t have to be that way. With a little help you can manage your website and do your online marketing as well. Contact me to find out how I can help you get started.

My hobbies

Next to my various work online I love to relax with a good book or watch a movie. As you can see in the photo, I am a big dog lover. When I am on holiday I love to explore old castles and churches.
