Entrepreneur School

By: Kelly Sinclair
  • Summary

  • The Entrepreneur School Podcast shares strategies and stories of being an entrepreneur, and what it takes to run a business while raising a family. Host Kelly Sinclair is determined to change the narrative of what success looks like. Success is subjective here. This is a space where we encourage you to follow your dreams, do the work and acknowledge the challenges along the way. It’s for: → The ambitious mother who wants to create a legacy for her kids. → The goal-oriented parent who values time freedom and flexibility so that they can be there for the school concerts, hockey games and dance recitals. → The woman who’s trying to make it all work without burning out or missing out along the way. Kelly is an award-winning brand and marketing strategist. Visibility maximizer. Small-town Canadian girl. Mom of 2 girls (who couldn’t be more different). There’s more to entrepreneurship than just marketing strategies and business models. You’ll learn all about that here. And, we will talk about mindset, lifestyle tools and habits just as much. This show is all about supporting emerging and early-stage entrepreneurs on the journey from solopreneur to CEO, while wearing all of the other hats in life. It’s for business owners who want to grow their brands online using digital strategies and creating digital products or programs. And most importantly, this podcast is intended to create a movement around pursuing passions, making an impact and finding joy in the journey of raising a family and running a business.

  • Is Your Visibility Strategic? This Scorecard Will Tell You [Vanity Metrics Detox Part 2]
    Apr 15 2025

    In part two of the Vanity Metrics Detox series, we're breaking up with one of the most misleading habits in entrepreneurship: measuring likes instead of leads.

    Let’s be honest — those heart reactions on social might give you a little dopamine hit, but they’re not paying your bills, friend.

    I’m walking you through the strategy I personally use to make sure that every bit of visibility I create is intentional, trackable, and moving my business forward — especially when time is tight (hello, all the days your kids don’t actually go to school). You’ll hear exactly how I track my ROI, what I did during one 90-day sprint, and why this led to the creation of my new AI-powered tool, Valerie the Visibility Auditor.

    You don't need to be everywhere. You just need to be effective.


    In this episode, we’ll unpack:

    • Why tracking is the antidote to performative visibility
    • How I ran a 90-day experiment during a chaotic summer and turned it into a full-blown system
    • What actually counts as visibility that leads to clients
    • The simplest tool I used (that only cost $1) and how it changed everything
    • What I discovered after two years of tracking every visibility move
    • The real reason marketing burnout happens (and how to stop it)
    • How my new AI tool Valerie will audit and score your visibility actions weekly

  • The Visibility Trap That’s Wasting Your Time [Vanity Metrics Detox Series Part 1]
    Apr 8 2025

    Ever posted something just to look like you're marketing your business? Guilty.

    This is the kickoff episode of the Vanity Metrics Detox—a four-part series designed to help you stop wasting time on “looking visible” and start focusing on what actually gets you clients.

    Today we’re diving into performative visibility—aka the stuff you do that feels productive (like tweaking your website for the 10th time or making another Instagram reel) but doesn't actually move the needle in your business.

    I’m sharing how to spot it, why it’s draining your energy, and what to do instead so your efforts actually translate to clients, income, and impact.

    If you’ve ever felt stuck in the social media hamster wheel or overwhelmed trying to keep up, this is your permission slip to opt out—and a roadmap for what to do instead.

    We’re talking:

    • The sneaky signs of performative visibility (and how to quit them)
    • Why real visibility doesn't always look flashy
    • Strategic visibility swaps that actually grow your business
    • A juicy behind-the-scenes story of how one networking event turned into a biz partnership (!)
    • The mantra that’ll help you detox busy work from your marketing strategy

    ✨ Plus, a sneak peek at Valerie—my brand new visibility audit tool that’ll help you track what’s actually working and ditch what’s not.

    >>Mentioned in this episode:
