Helping freelance trainers
to create successful businesses

Hello, fellow freelance trainer!
My name is Sharon Gaskin and I help trainers like you to become happy and financially secure freelancers and training business owners.
Developing the skills to be a successful freelance trainer is a learning curve – and a steep one at that!
You’ve probably got the training side of things down to a fine art, which is great.
I’m here to help you master everything else – marketing, finding and pitching for work, quoting (and knowing what to charge), managing client relationships, and so much more.
From free guides and blogs to courses, coaching and community, the support you need to succeed as a freelance trainer is here for you.


Freelance trainer, how can I help you?

Hi, I'm Sharon Gaskin
After leaving the corporate training world and working around my family, I went through (many) highs and lows as a freelance trainer, making mistakes sometimes and learning more than I ever imagined possible.
In 2009, I launched The Trainers Training Company and Trainer Talk community to help freelance trainers get to grips with things like finding clients, marketing, money management, branding, pitching and much more.
Essentially, I wanted to give others the support I wish I’d had.
I’m here to share my experience – and that of other freelancers. The Trainers Training Company is about helping you to feel happy, confident and supported as you build a profitable training business.
Get everything in place from the ground up and your business will enhance your life immeasurably – I promise!
