Series 2 relaunches with a new name and more focused content - welcome to Starting To Scale with Emmie Faust.

This podcast is for founders of start-ups and scale-ups who want to grow a thriving business, secure investment and spend it wisely.

It's going to be a mix of me, Emmie Faust, a range of experts and entrepreneurs sharing their stories of success.

This is a mini-series to say Hello,

To ask how I can help you?

To let you know that I am rebranding my podcast to 'Starting To Scale'.

I'm going to be focusing down on my content to speak to businesses owners that are serious about scaling up, who want to secure investment and spend it wisely.

In this topic, I talk about why it's important to research your audience and the findings from my recent survey.

Also, find out how you can easily conduct some basic research so that you can serve your customers better.

If you’re interested in finding out more about strategic partnerships, what one might look like, and how you can build strategic partnerships that work for your business, you’ll find a lot of practical tips and examples in this episode.

There are many great things about working for ourselves and setting up businesses but there are also challenges that we can sometimes face.

Working on our own can feel lonely at times especially when things are not going to plan. It really helps to have a support network around us.

What is a business plan, what goes into creating one and why might it be useful?

Banks and Investors will normally ask for a business plan. Even if you are not looking for funding it still worth creating a plan to make sure that you have properly thought through your idea. With so many start-ups failing in the first year of business it's worth spending some time thinking about how your business is going to suceeed.

Happy New Year - here is to a fabulous 2020!

This is a re-run of one of the episodes with Will Polston all about goal setting so I thought you might like to have a listen if goal setting is on your agenda this year. It really works and I think Will offers some great advice - aim for your North Star.

As I wrap up for my last episode in this series I am grateful to you the listeners for listening to my podcast. And for giving me feedback.

Grateful to those that were interviewed for this podcast.

Grateful for being able to share what I love doing.

I'll be back in early Jan 2020.

Have you registered with the ICO?

I'm not a lawyer or a GDPR specialist but it might be worth checking the ICO site to see whether, like many other businesses in the UK, you are required to pay a data protection fee.
