When was the last time you saw some copy that made you feel so bad about yourself or your business, that you just felt completely turned off by it and never wanted to purchase from that person, ever? Probably fairly recently - but there is a movement from a lot of business owners towards ethical marketing, which is marketing that makes your client’s purchase from you from a positive place, rather than a negative one. S...

If you’ve ever danced on a reel, or felt pressured to create long-form content, or stood awkwardly in the corner of an in-person networking event, you’ll know the pressures introverts face to show up in ways that feel inauthentic to them.

Finding that you’re busy all day, every day, but don’t really seem to be getting anything important done or hitting your goals yet? Well, there’s a chance you could actually be self-sabotaging.

If you’re a service provider, you’ll probably know all too well the feeling of working all hours and a complete lack of boundaries when it comes to your clients. It’s not bad, necessarily - it stems from wanting to provide a great service - but when it leaves us burnt out and struggling to move forward in business, we need to work out why we can’t let the “employee mindset” of undercharging and overdelivering go.

In fact, relatable stories can often be the way to go to get your followers or readers to resonate with ...

You know me - I’m all about keeping things simple. From repeatable systems, to content repurposing, if it doesn’t make my life and business easier, I don’t want it! Marketing, though, is one of those beasts that we often find ourselves getting totally overwhelmed with. We try to jump on every platform possible, making brand new content daily and when the overwhelm reaches its peak, we drop all of it in favor of our cli...

In June 2022, I left social media and went all in email as my main marketing method, and things really couldn’t have gone any better - I absolutely love emailing my list! It’s not a secret, though, that email can feel really daunting and like you’re just speaking to a brick wall. Over the years, I’ve picked up some good tips and techniques that have really helped me to see results from my email marketing, and that’s ex...

If I say the word “networking” to you as an introvert, you’ll likely picture a room full of extroverts chatting away, with you standing in the doorway wondering if it’s too late to run away. However, this definitely isn’t the only type of networking available to you! It’s simply a case of trying out a few different types, having a practice and getting comfortable with connecting with others. Joining me to chat about th...

I’m spilling the tea in today’s episode, but as a hint, you’ll want to get on my email list...

The mindset behind increasing your prices can be a complicated one, and we often fear that we’re going to alienate our current client base if we start to charge more. However, it’s so vital to detach your self-worth from that of your business and your pricing, in order for your business to keep growing. Talking us through the do’s and don’ts of raising your rates, finding clients who are right for your offers and setti...

And, so often we find ourselves scratching our heads at this, because it doesn’t really explain much to us! After all, consistency is different for everybody and so my guest today is going to be discussing with me all about finding the level of consistency that works for you, the content types that make you fee...
