Ep.2 Why ‘Proven’ Strategies Aren’t Working: The Reality Behind the COVID Business Boom with Kirsty Carr
I’m joined by Kirsty Carr, B2B business strategist, to debunk the myth of "overnight success" and expose the truth behind the online business boom. If you’ve been feeling like you’re doing everything “right” but still can’t break through, this episode is for you.
Kirsty’s bold opinion? The businesses we see rocketing now, with their “proven strategies” and shiny success stories, probably had a significant advantage: an existing audience before COVID hit. The pandemic presented the perfect storm for many, giving them the time, money, and attention from new customers they’d never had before.
But here’s the catch—timing and circumstances played a massive role in their rise. Now that we’re a few years out of the pandemic, these “proven” strategies are outdated. It’s no longer about grinding harder or following someone else’s blueprint—it’s about finding your own path and cutting through the noise in today’s market.
Kirsty and I dive deep into why many of these “overnight successes” wouldn’t have happened without COVID—and how your business success is still possible without the same perfect timing. It’s all about adapting, shifting strategies, and focusing on your own unique business model in the post-COVID world.
If you’ve been questioning your progress and wondering why things don’t seem to be working like they did for others—this episode will bring some much-needed clarity.
