The Buyer to Badass Podcast
After over 10 years in the corporate world as a Fashion Buyer, a year ago I took the plunge and quit to start my own business. in Dubai! And let me tell you, it's been a wild time. Now I understand why people say starting a business is hard, but no one shows you behind the scenes of what it's really like when you first start out.
Join me for the ride as I go from 9-5 to freelance, and show you how you can do it too. I talk mindset, marketing and myself, and chat to others who have taken the leap from a full time job to self employed. Let's build a brand!
The Buyer to Badass Podcast
70. How I Transformed My Business After My Quietest Months Ever
How I went from having my quietest months ever to suddenly feeling so busy that I’m already booked up for months in advance, talk about a turnaround!
I’ll take you through the ups and downs I’ve faced over the past few months, starting with a tough January and February where it seemed like everything was against me. From client cancellations to no new leads, it was a challenging time. But I didn’t just sit back and wait for things to magically turn around. I pulled out my good old outreach lists, leaned on the Law of Attraction community, and did the inner work to shift my mindset.
In this episode, we talk about:
- The importance of planning ahead when you know tough personal times are ahead (hello, IVF and pregnancy!)
- How I dealt with the reality of business slowing down and how I pulled it back from the brink
- The role of mindset in turning things around and getting back on track
- The power of taking action and reaching out even when it feels like everything is crumbling
- How I went from worrying constantly to loving the clients I’m working with now, and how charging more and setting clear expectations helped me get here
If you’re going through a quiet phase in your business, or feel like things are slipping away, this episode will give you some insight into how to pull yourself back and build momentum.
