  • #185 – Are your relationships doing the marketing for you? with Bookkeeper and Nutrition Coach Amanda Findlay
    Sep 14 2024

    From the front desks of doctor’s surgeries to the owner of Complete Bookkeeping Concepts, Amanda's vision was clear: start my own business, set my hours, and embrace total flexibility. Despite the hectic pace, the flexibility to work around her family’s schedule was invaluable. Fourteen years later, she has a team of 6 and in 2023, decided to pursue another passion - nutrition. In becoming a nutrition coach she opened up her books to one to one coaching with a mission to support business owners to be both financially fit, healthy in their mind and body.

  • #184 – How to start thinking about your business like a world with John Marsh
    Sep 4 2024

    Helping people to buy, without ‘selling’ them, is the ultimate power. Clients engage in your service with pleasure. They are drawn to how your ‘business world’ makes them feel. They are pulled in by their own desire, not pushed by marketing tactics.

    These are the principles of world building for business.

    Just released this week, 'Book of Worlds' is the ultimate guide to more creativity, fun, and revenue in your service business. Grab your copy by clicking here.

    In this conversation with John (my dear husband) we talk about his new book, what world building looks like for a service business, and some easy ways to get started so you can bring out your world in your marketing.

  • #183 – I'm too old to start over
    Aug 24 2024

    If you listen to this podcast, my guess is this ain't your first rodeo. You've probably changed careers at least once, pivoted or started a business at a time when most of your friends are at the height of their corporate careers. And that feeling of starting again, can be daunting to say the least.

    In this episode, I give my personal thoughts on being a business owner in a time where teenagers are making serious bank with YouTube or being an 'influencer' which can make you question whether you got what it takes.
