Be intentionally you - how to master your marketing with Gus Bhandal

Season 1 · Episode 14

Monday, April 29, 2024 • Duration 47:15

What does 'Be Intentionally You' have to do with marketing? After all, you're marketing a product or service, *you* don't really come into it.

Marketing doesn't really work like that. As the old adage says: 'people buy from people' and being intentionally you has everything to do with it.

In this episode I interview marketing guru, Gus Bhandal. With 20 + years of marketing experience in his repertoire Gus and I talk about the transition from print to digital marketing. How to merge the two, and how to choose the best Social Media platforms to suit your business and your audience.

We also look at branding and how to really get your brand noticed, as well as delivering what people expect when you meet them in person. What language to include and when it's best to keep those sweary comments to yourself.

Are you ready to improve your marketing and get noticed by your ideal clients?

Stop yourself from self-sabotaging!

Season 1 · Episode 13

Monday, April 22, 2024 • Duration 54:55

Do you find that you only ever get so far in your business?

That, no matter how successful you are, it’s always a little less success than you hoped for?

Wanting to always be that little bit further along than you currently are?

Most of us self-sabotage without even realising it. We have hopes and dreams for our businesses and they often stay just that… dreams. It can be demoralising not ever being able to pin point what’s really going wrong and how to turn it about.

In this co-hosted episode with me and Amy Newlands, my business bestie, we take a deep dive to recognise the signs that we’re self sabotaging, why we do it (anyone interested in psychology is going to love this one) and how to stop it. We draw on personal experience and years of working with other, independent businesses.

Are you looking to be more successful in your business?

It’s time to recognise then ditch the behaviours that are keeping you stuck.

How to be happy in your business

Season 1 · Episode 11

Monday, March 18, 2024 • Duration 24:23

Do you feel happy in your business?

You set up to be the one in control, but it feels like your business is controlling you?

Many of us setup our small businesses thinking of all the perks, the freedom, the flexibility that comes with entrepreneurship. What we don't think about - usually because we don't experience them until we're in it, are all the difficulties that entrepreneurship brings with it.

Having ditched the 9 - 5, you now find yourself on the 24/7 and the clients seem to be calling all the shots.

You can relax, I've got you. I promise this isn't exclusive to you. So many small business owners start to fall out of love with their businesses in the early days.

In this episode I guide you through the common pitfalls of the small business owner, how to overcome them (as well as make sure they don't happen again) and how to structure your business so you fall back in love, and stay in love with it.

Are you ready to be happy in your business?

Is your online presence working against you?

Season 1 · Episode 10

Monday, March 11, 2024 • Duration 18:11

Do you struggle with your online presence?

Does it feel that, no matter what you do, whether it's on your website or Social Media, you're just not getting it right?

If you feel like the online world is an uphill battle then this episode is the one for you!

Many of us struggle to represent ourselves online. To have the shiny brand, the brilliant words, the flawless photos, to post every day, to update the website.... it's a LOT!

What if it wasn't any of these things that determined your online success? What if, what makes your online profile successful is deeper rooted than that?

In this episode I guide you to the core of what online success really is, how to achieve it (without having a breakdown!) and I share advice and tips on what to do, and what to avoid?

Are you prepared to work smarter, rather than harder online?

Tips for pricing your services

Season 1 · Episode 9

Monday, March 4, 2024 • Duration 20:01

Do you feel your prices aren’t quite right?

You’ve followed the lead on what others’ in your industry are charging but you’re not getting the customers you want.

Getting the price right for your services can be the difference between being full of clients or watching the tumbleweed pass by as your competitors seem to be getting all the business.

The thing is with pricing, it’s not just about what you charge, it’s recognising who your ideal client is and what value your services add to their experience.

In this episode we’ll delve into these points, as well as the ethics around pricing and how to add value and work with people who otherwise wouldn’t be in a position to engage your services.

Are you ready to learn how to price your services so they’re irresistible to your ideal client?
