Listen Later

In this episode, Nicole offers some of the most valuable insights she’s gained from her own journey in business, as well as from those in the top tier of the business world. It’s a practical, insightful guide through some of the finest business wisdom out there, including what to do when you hit a slow period, the importance of preparation, and why you should take action as soon as possible!

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Always do your research! Making sure you’re prepared from the outset can save you time and money, as well as maximise your profits.
  • You can’t get anywhere in business unless you take action. Stop waiting and procrastinating and take action today.
  • During slow periods of business, it’s always worth taking another look at your purpose, revisiting your vision, and engaging with your community in creative ways
  • Never dwell on errors. We all make mistakes. View them as lesson, pick yourself up, and get moving. Keep that momentum high.

BEST MOMENTS 

‘Don’t forget its always easier to reduce something than it is to increase after you’ve launched’

‘Don’t wait for perfection. It will nearly never happen’

‘Understand your own strengths and where you need support then ask for that support when you need it!’

‘At some point you will make a mistake. Learn from it and move on’
