BUSINESS BUILDING INSIGHTS

  • Don't let fear stop you. Say yes to new opportunities and figure it out after.
  • Practice bravery in your business. Putting yourself out there can lead to big things.
  • Overcome imposter syndrome by reminding yourself of wins. Create a 'Love Folder' and save good testimonials, write down everything (small or large) that went well, take screenshots of positive comments online, etc. Remind yourself of all the people you've helped.
  • Find ways to brainstorm and get new ideas from other people - use your team, a coaching group, etc. Expose yourself to things outside your focus to stimulate creativity - in your business and for marketing.
  • Don't rush to push for a sale. Showing up online is how you connect with your audience. You have to show who you are. And it takes time to build a relationship.
  • As a handmade business, the skill of what you do and how you create your products is your superpower. That's your USP.
  • Tune in for too many valuable business insights to summarize here!
