A mentorship that feels like home
First live session: Thursday, 14 May, 11–12pm AEST
- 12 weeks • 12 seats • One table
You’ve likely..
bought the courses that sit unopened in your inbox. You’ve listened to the “gurus” who don’t understand that your internet drops out when it rains or that your busy season is dictated by the weather, not the fiscal quarter.
The Inner Circle is the antidote to the “one-size-fits-all” Meta Ads noise. It is a premium, hands-on environment where I combine high-level technical expertise with old-fashioned, personalised support.
I don’t just teach you how to click the buttons; I give you a safe sounding board to test your ideas, a fresh set of eyes on your strategy, and the unwavering accountability to actually get it done.
Before you step into the Metaverse arena
You’ve tried Meta Ads before. You’ve spent the time, you’ve spent the money, and yet it still feels like a high-stakes gamble. You’re worried about “breaking” the algorithm, wasting your hard-earned budget, or looking silly because you don’t know what a pixel actually does.
Out here, we don’t take work ethic lightly. But Ads Manager? It has a way of making even the most successful business owners feel like they’re shouting into a void.
I’m Tenai, and I’m a bit of a straight shooter. I created the Inner Circle because I was tired of seeing regional go-getters handed off to juniors who don’t know the difference between a horse and a pony.
You’re building something real out here. You deserve a strategy that matches your ambition.
This is for the e-commerce founders and service providers who are used to rolling up their sleeves and getting the job done. It’s frustrating when you’re used to handling everything yourself, but Ads Manager has you stumped. You feel stuck and instead of throwing in the towel, you’re someone who is looking for a solution. One that you can learn rather than give over to someone, because knowledge is power, and this is just one other aspect in your business you’d like to really understand and wield to your advantage.
The next step to future proofing your business
Whether you keep ads in-house or hire an agency later, you need to understand the how, why and where ads work for your business. The back-end of Meta Ads Manager can be overwhelming. Let’s simplify it and learn to read the numbers that actually matter to your bottom line and know the story they are telling you on how to adapt your ads to reach the right people, with the message they need to read most. Never feel like you have to stay quiet because you think your observations are dumb or obscure, instead equip yourself with the knowledge to stand up and take space in the room.
This is your seat at the table if:
You’re tired of the "City Agency" disconnect.
You’ve had enough generic advice from agencies that don’t understand your business and experience. You want a strategy that respects and works for your regional roots.
You’re ready to stop walking in the dark.
The tech feels overwhelming, and you’re worried about wasting money on ads you don't understand. You want to stop crossing your fingers and hoping for the best, and start making decisions based on data, not guesswork.
You want independence, not isolation.
You are comfortable running your own race, but doing it entirely alone is lonely. You miss having "marketing colleagues" to bounce ideas off. You want a sounding board of peers who are playing at your level, the same people who will cheer you on and challenge you to think bigger.
- This isn’t a subscription
- It’s a seat at the table
Introducing the Inner Circle
Marketing a rural business can be isolating, but you don’t have to navigate the digital landscape alone. The Inner Circle is an intimate, high-touch mentorship limited to just 12 ambitious business owners.
Think of it less like a classroom and more like a digital dinner party with your smartest marketing colleagues. You aren’t one of a hundred faces in a Zoom gallery; you are here to be seen, heard, and supported.
Together we are trading the cold, city-agency disconnect for genuine, face-to-face guidance. Whether you’re deep in harvest or deep in strategy, I hold the space for you to ask the questions that matter, giving you the confidence to take the reins of your own data.
The table is set.

The Antidote to the Rural Grind :
No Homework.
Most memberships are designed to scale, think thousands of people, endless video libraries, and zero personal connection. The Inner Circle Mentorship is the opposite. We trade the cold disconnect for genuine guidance. This isn’t a course that will sit unopened in your inbox adding 5 hours of study to your week.
- We meet Thursdays (11-12 AM AEST). If you can’t make it, you get the recording, but the magic happens when we’re all in the room.
- We open your Ads Manager together.
- We fix the strategy right then and there.
You leave that hour with your marketing done, not with a to-do list that makes you feel guilty.
"It’s not a course, but a crew. You learn faster because you’re not figuring it out alone."
The Inner Circle Crew
Find Your Place in the Inner Circle
I don’t do “one-size-fits-all” because you aren’t all starting from the same place.
Where do you sit right now?
Help, I’m Lost
You know you should be doing more with digital marketing, but your Ads Manager feels overwhelming. You might be scared to touch things in Ads Manager for fear of “breaking” something. You aren’t looking for complex scaling strategies yet. You just want a clear roadmap and someone to translate the Metaverse into plain English.
I strip away the fear. I’ll be there every step of the way to help you set the foundations correctly. This is a safe space to ask the “basic” questions (which aren’t basic at all) so you never feel left behind or in the dark.
The Ad Dabbler
You’ve boosted a post, run a few ads, or set up a campaign, but it feels a bit like gambling. You’ve seen some results, but you don’t know why it worked or how to repeat it. You are ready to move from “throwing things at the wall” to having a deliberate strategy that saves you time and money.
I take what you’ve started and sharpen it. I’ll look at your data together, figure out what’s actually moving the needle, and give you the skills to turn that “dabbling” into a consistent, repeatable system. Soon enough, you’ll have the ads literacy to hold your own in a room of marketers.
Looking for
Extra Zing
You’re an established business owner. You might even manage Marketing for others. You don’t need a “how-to” tutorial; you need a fresh perspective. You’re looking for a high-level sounding board to challenge your thinking, a sense-check on your strategy, and connection with other ambitious rural business owners.
The group acts as your marketing colleagues. This is about elevation and finding the gaps you can’t see because you’re too close to the work. I focus on big-picture strategy, troubleshooting specific roadblocks, and giving you that extra 10% that changes everything.
What you can expect from Inner Circle
Real Accountability
This isn't a login you’ll forget. There are only 12 of us. If your seat is empty, we notice.
No Jargon
We speak plain English. If I use a tech term, I’ll explain it in the context of your actual business.
Done-With-You Experience
You won’t leave a session with "homework." You’ll leave with your ads running, your budget set, and your strategy sharpened.
Hi, I’m Tenai, Your Inner Circle Mentor
Living and working on the Granite Belt in Stanthorpe, I understand that business out here runs a little differently. The Metaverse and I are really good friends. It’s something I really get, and want to de-mystify for others. This is not my first rodeo, I have degrees in Marketing and Psychology, plus a background as an e-Commerce business owner myself, I’ve spent years understanding human behaviour, consumer trends and how these insights make or break my client’s ads.
I created the Inner Circle because I was tired of seeing agencies cloak ads in mystery and hand off clients to inexperienced juniors. I’ve seen the landscape from both sides, scaling businesses to multi-million dollar revenue streams, and now I’m here to give you the transparent, human, and no-nonsense guidance you need to do the same.
No dusty course modules.
No passive watching.
We rock up, we do the work, and we get on with business.

The Numbers Don’t Lie: Meet Jo.
Jo was on the ledge. She had the ambition, but Meta Ads Manager felt like a black hole. Here’s what happened when she pulled up a chair:
- The Spend: $554
- The Result: A 108% increase in sign-ups.
- The Win: She blew past her “impossible” goal and most importantly she set it up herself.

High-touch, not high-volume
Most memberships are designed to scale; thousands of people, endless video libraries, and zero personal connection.
The Inner Circle Mentorship is the opposite. I keep the numbers small so the impact can be big. This is about real-time feedback, hot-seat strategy, and genuine connection with a room of peers who are playing at your level of business.
It’s for the rural business owner who wants to stop guessing and start knowing. It’s for the independent thinker who wants to hold their own in a meeting with an agency. It’s for you, if you’re ready to stop doing it alone.
12 Seats. 12 Weeks. One table.
The Table is Set
