One of the most difficult psychological shifts for new business owners is going from an employee mindset to a business owner mindset. Most of your life, you’ve likely operated as a consumer: waiting for a paycheck so you can take care of your expenses. And when things get challenging in the economy, your instinct is to tighten the purse strings and focus on saving.
But as a business owner, you have many opportunities to make investments in your business, which have the power to pay for themselves many times over. So in this episode, we’re exploring the importance of spending *strategically* in your business to drive growth. Listen in now to make sure you are thinking like the business owner that you are and want to be, instead of the consumer that you used to be.

But when it comes to sitting down to actually do it, our brains love to come up with all kinds of reasons *not* to hit “send”. “Oh, that company is waaay too big to pitch, they would never need my help!” or, at the other end of the spectrum, “A solopreneur? They’d never be able to afford a copywriter!”
In this episode, Nicki and Kate remind us that when you hold back on sending out pitches, you’re actually doing a major disservice to everyone out there who needs you (companies big AND small). Listen in now to learn why these pitching assumptions that could be costing you opportunities (and money!).
