Badass Empires

Turning a hobby for baking into a wildly successful online empire? Mmmm, sounds delicious 🤤

Today, I talk with Erin, the founder of Cloudy Kitchen - a baking blog that has seen her channel her passion for creating delicious treats, scientific mind, and online marketing genius into a crazy successful business that works even when she doesn't. From baking at home to fill a homesickness void and a desire to have her own thing, she's built a mammoth following across social media that tops 1 Million, and tapped into the ultimate lifestyle business sweet spot of working when, how, and on what she chooses. 

Erin and I go DEEP in this no-holds-barred conversation, covering everything from dealing with online haters to what it takes to create such a magnetic brand. Plus all of the mindset shifts it takes to build and scale a business of this size as a fulltime solopreneur.

Ready to transform your content, build your empire and attract more aligned clients?

In today’s podcast episode, we’re diving into all things content strategy – specifically, how to build authority and become the go-to person for your ideal clients when it comes to not just content, but content that SELLS.

Diving into the 3 D’s, I’m breaking down how to create “discoverable” content, sprinkle in some “driver” content, and gradually build your “depth” content as your audience starts to know, like, and trust you more with each new post.

So if it’s more sales you want, it’s more sales you’ll get… One post at a time.

Ready to level up your content game, badass?

Well, listen up because today I’m spilling the tea on the top 6 things I would NEVER do as a multi-million dollar CEO. And no… this ain’t no traditional (aka boring) business advice you’ll find at university or on the internet.

“But if I give away too much for free, people won’t want to pay me, right?!” Wrong.

When it comes to sharing free content, my rule is to be as generous as you can. Your free content is your chance to shine, build trust, stand out in your niche, and show people why you’re 100% worth their investment in working with you.

I mean… if your free content is *this* good, imagine how insane your PAID offers are.

Today, I’m breaking down how to differentiate what to share in your free content vs your paid offers, and how to lead people from one to the other. More visibility. More income. A bigger empire? Yes, please!

I’m gonna let you in on a little secret here, badass… I almost broke my business.

The truth is, like a lot of entrepreneurs, I thought I had to have ALL of the offers to be able to scale my business. I wanted to make more money so what other way could I do that than add more offers, right?!

Spoiler alert: It didn’t work.

In today’s episode, I’m sharing with you why it didn’t work, why having more offers does not equal more sales, and what you should be focusing on instead.

Believe it or not, social media algorithms actually want you to succeed. Yeah, I know what you’re thinking “Rosie, you’re crazy. The algorithm hates me! It never shows my content to anyone, no matter how hard I try!”.

But hear me out for a minute… What if I told you that the algorithm (whether that be on Instagram, or TikTok, etc) IS actually on your side? That because the algorithm wants to keep people ON its platform, it wants to help you keep those people on there (aka get your content seen by more people?!).

In today’s episode, I’m breaking down the 4 biggest keys to social media growth on ANY platform, by understanding the algorithm and using it to your advantage.

Let’s get down and dirty in some social media strategy, shall we?
