“ I met with Jitske because I was trying to figure out how to position myself not only as a photographer, but also as an entrepreneur. If you want to make a living from your creative work, that’s just as important.
I knew Jitske had a real talent for this and had built a solid business around her work, so I decided to book a session with her. It turned out to be a really valuable conversation.
What I appreciated most is how transparent Jitske is. She’s not a slick salesperson pretending everything is always perfect. She’s open about her own challenges and vulnerabilities, which helps you avoid some of the same pitfalls.
It’s also contagious to see how much she genuinely enjoys networking and bringing in new clients. It’s inspiring, and it makes you want to approach your own business with the same mindset.
I left with practical advice and plenty to think about—insights that are already helping me take the next steps in my journey as an entrepreneur.
Thank you, Jitske!”

“Jitske gave an outstanding talk at A Lab on how creatives and freelancers can attract more clients. Through a practical and easy-to-follow “diamond exercise,” she turned complex ideas into something everyone could immediately apply to their own business.
From the very beginning, it was clear how well prepared she was. She presented herself professionally and confidently, while creating an open, interactive atmosphere that encouraged everyone to participate. Rather than delivering a one-way presentation, she facilitated a dynamic session that challenged people to think differently about their business.
The response from the audience spoke for itself. Everyone left with practical insights, concrete tools, and a much clearer understanding of how to approach client acquisition and position their services more effectively.
If you’re looking for a speaker who can teach entrepreneurs how to improve their outreach, attract more clients, and ultimately increase their revenue in an engaging, interactive, and highly practical way, I would wholeheartedly recommend Jitske!”

“Jitske’s workshop is highly recommended. It gave me not only practical tools, but also a real shift in mindset. She showed us that with just a few strategic adjustments, you can make a huge difference as a (starting) entrepreneur.
Everything was thoughtfully organized, and it was incredibly motivating to meet other small business owners who are on a similar journey. The atmosphere was open, inspiring, and welcoming throughout. I left feeling more confident, with clear next steps I could immediately put into practice.”
