Learn how to build a soft, spacious, human-centered service business in the age of algorithms & artificial intelligence. One that claims your specialness & can meet you in the season you’re in. Led by 10x award-winning leader & seasoned mentor Alison Rice.

the future of work is sovereign

purposeful preparation

In this Substack essay, Alison names the major shift taking place in the workplace & why the age of AI is the birthplace of the service entrepreneur.

soft, spacious, enough

serve is rooted in regenerative entrepreneurship.

That means we are not here to build businesses that look impressive from the outside while quietly draining the life out of the person inside them. We are not here to chase scale for its own sake, or perform success according to models that were never designed with softness, spaciousness, care, health, family, community or enoughness in mind.

The growth-at-all-costs model is dying because it asks too much of people & gives too little back. It extracts from founders, from customers, from communities & from the natural rhythms that make good work possible.

serve offers another way.

learn from one mentor doing it today

learn from one mentor doing it today

We have officially reached information overload. Instagram & TikTok are flooded with business coaches & marketing “gurus” promising $10k, $50k & $100k months. The advice is often conflicting & lacks the nuance required to build a profitable service business today.

It’s so normal to have countless Reels bookmarked, multiple e-books left unopened in your inbox & links to replays of webinars you signed up for but never attended.  This living practice room allows you to leave all of that behind & focus on the advice from one seasoned business mentor who is thoughtfully scaling a human-centered service business today.

    Translate the felt essence of your brand world into form. Colour, typography references, imagery, texture & motion become the language through which your world is seen & sensed.

  • lesson eleven

    develop your content marketing system

total value of the serve program

$30,000+ worth of strategy & mentorship

Why so much value?

Because Alison is yet to meet an emerging (or established) entrepreneur who can comfortably invest $30,000 upfront on what is essentially still just an idea.

That’s why serve exists at the price it does: To make starting your own service business less financially risky.

what it would actually cost

If you were to engage experts & contractors to support you at each stage, the investment would exceed $30,000. This program is an opportunity to learn how to do it yourself & use the strategic knowledge over & over again in your business as you grow.

Business Strategy $10,000
Marketing Strategy $7,000
Brand Strategy $6,000
Content Strategy $5,000
Offer Design $3,000
$30,000 coming soon

even if you’re already serving, it’s safe to seek help to get profitable

you are not alone. you are not failing. you just need support.

You took the leap which is incredible, now get the structure, support, strategy & accountability we all need.

form consulting collectives

serve is not only a place to build your own business, it’s also a place to meet the people whose work may one day strengthen it.

As more businesses hire for outcomes & projects rather than fixed roles, the ability to work in trusted collaboration becomes more powerful. Many of the most exciting opportunities will go to people who can not only do excellent work, but who can also bring together the right constellation of people around a brief.

Inside serve, you may meet the strategist, copywriter, designer, facilitator, practitioner, producer, marketer or operator whose work sits beautifully beside your own.

This is part of what makes the room valuable.

It is not networking for the sake of it, it’s real proximity to like-minded women building with intention & purpose. It’s a chance to witness how others think, work & create. A room where future consulting collectives, referrals & collaborations form naturally.

Kind Words
To get to place your most tender of dreams within this [space] is truly such a gift. To take your own dreams seriously, with others who are bravely doing the same. To get to touch base weekly with this dream — which for me is something so often overlooked, put at the bottom of priorities, doubted & questioned. serve was a space where this green little thing could actually be nurtured, fertilised & protected. To also see that you’re not alone with this dream. Witnessing both the struggles & rising of others was beautiful to watch. For me I also really needed the granular level of strategy & serve more than provided that framework.

Alison has completely changed the way that I think about marketing my service business. I used to feel like I always had to be “on”, always thinking about booking in my next client & always feeling the pressure of showing up on socials. She offered me a way of thinking about marketing & booking clients that’s seasonal, allows me to forecast my revenue & gives me the space to be fully serving my clients without the pressure of looking for new work in the back of my mind. Alison’s strategic business advice never fails to impress me with the level of her expertise & thoughtfulness. She’s helped me to strategically price my services & untangle my sense of self-worth from my business, which as a service-provider has been a difficult hurdle for me.

The content is big, broad & beautiful. It felt like a survey course for founders with many touch points that could be followed down the track. I thought some of the early spiritual/philosophical pieces were a great way to get in touch with your why. Probably one of the most helpful areas was how transparent Alison was with her own business. This in itself was beautifully valuable & was one of the most potent learnings. The forms & spreadsheets were a great bonus, too. It’s almost as if serve started a process & then after it finished the forms & structures could carry you forward. There was a momentum that has really pulled me forward in the last few months. I really think I wouldn’t have kept going without it.

serve is a game changer for the modern entrepreneur wanting to fast track their start-up planning with concise, proven, valuable, relevant & strategic advice. Each week you will work through foundational business strategy & core concepts in a beautiful group setting with other founders ensuring you are meeting amazing new friends & business contacts (& no doubt your cheerleaders as you leap & land in your new business). I would recommend this program to anyone starting a new business — I wish I did this program before I started out!

the serve scholarship

the serve scholarship

In my ongoing commitment to building a business that — at its foundation — is an act of allyship, one of the most important questions I’ve learned I can ask is: Who isn’t in the room & why?

The serve Scholarship exists to ensure anyone experiencing financial hardship has a pathway to financial stability & independence. Priority is given to Black, Indigenous, People of Colour, people with a disability, domestic violence survivors & single mothers.

Write to me to explore a scholarship.

still wondering if serve is for you?

Consider emailing our team to explore the room in more detail & ask us questions.

your questions, answered

  • when are the live calls?

    2026 call times coming soon. Recordings will be uploaded within 24 hours.

  • what is the time committment?

    The lessons are 1.5-2 hours in length. The rest is how much time you decide to commit to live calls, executing the strategy & connecting with your co-creators.

  • can I cancel mid-way through the initial six-month commitment?

    No, unfortunately you can’t cancel within the initial six-month period. After six months you can cancel or join the post-program tier.

  • how does the scholarship work & how do I apply?

    The idea is that you pay what you can afford or nothing at all if an investment isn’t within your financial means.

    Offline uses this economic justice tool as a guide.

    Alison set the parameters for Offline scholarships after a series of cultural education & awareness sessions. One of the decisions she made after receiving this valuable counsel was to move away from an application process & instead, ask you to explore it with her.

    So if you need a scholarship, she hopes you’ll write to her.

    The serve Scholarship exists for any person experiencing significant financial hardship.

    If you’d like to explore, please write to Alison: support@getoffline.co.

  • are the live calls recorded?

    Yes. All calls are recorded.

  • can I access the content after the six months?

    Yes, you will retain access to the serve content & community + all future updates for as long as you’re inside.
