Today I am sitting down with Claire Jordan, the owner of Kala House of Colour!
Kala is one of the cutest, most unique retail shops in Downtown Bracebridge - offering shoppers a collection of colourful, handmade and environmentally-friendly home goods, clothing & gifts.
Just picture a super “instagrammable” boutique shop & 10x it. That’s Kala!
Claire Jordan, the founder and creative mind behind the shop, has curated the most incredible space, filled with ethically sourced products & unique finds from other small businesses and entrepreneurs. She keeps this in mind as she hand selects items, so that she can support the dreams of fellow makers and entrepreneurs, as well as her own.
I could listen to Claire speak all day long. You’ll quickly notice how incredible gorgeous her voice is to listen to, and how eloquently she speaks.

Are you a small business looking to double your clients, revenue, and reach in the coming 3 months?
I’ve got something special for you.
On Sept 14th, our brand new Marketing Intensive begins, and you have just 7 more days to take advantage of Early Bird Pricing.
Not familiar with what I’m talking about?
Here’s the deal..… I'll be your coach while we work through The Marketing Mastery Intensive™ together. This is a signature program from The Visionary Method for small business owners who are making at least 50k in revenue each year.
I created this framework because these marketing principles are timeless, wealth-producing and little known - often ignored by modern marketing gurus. Contrary to popular belief, you don’t need fancy Facebook Ads or Click Funnels to run a wildly successful business. But you DO need to know these 7 principles.
For 3 months we’ll work together and I will drip you mind-blowing content & applicable homework challenges, alongside the time-honoured processes that you can incorporate into your business strategy immediately.
Hey Visionary,
How would you like to win a getaway to the incredible town of Bracebridge so that you can eat, play & explore?
