    In this episode of Sweat Grit & Hustle, Tracy is joined by guest Lisa Paton, Osteopath and owner of Angus Osteopathic Clinic. Find out how to get your business in the health and wellbeing sector off the ground. 

     

    KEY TAKEAWAYS 

    • When setting up your own business where clients will be visiting your home or home office you need to take into account the divide between what is your work space and what is your home. Lisa moved her treatment room to a purpose-built external building in her garden with its own restroom and facilities. 
    • When starting out confidence is an important thing. Lisa had to gain confidence both as an Osteopath and as a business person when she started up. She developed at her own pace and has had and asked for support when it was needed. Learning these new business skills is a great way of gaining confidence and feeling like you really belong.

    ‘You are an Osteopath but the biggest thing that makes you sink or swim is the business side of it’

  • Nick James| Expert to Empire, Passion to Profits (Entrepreneurship and Education)

    In this episode of Sweat Grit & Hustle, Tracy is joined by guest Nick James, creator of Expert Empires, the UK’s number one event for coaches, speakers, trainers, authors, and experts. Hear Nick’s story about starting his own company and find out his guidance and advice for your business. 

    KEY TAKEAWAYS 

    Nick’s background writing copy gave him a leg up when starting his business. This allowed him to target a niche audience when launching, he already had contacts and expertise to get things off the ground. Then when his business had momentum, he diversified and that allowed him to grow and expand into different areas. 

    While giving advice on public speaking, Nick tells us that the chemicals in your brain when you’re nervous are so similar to the chemicals that are there when you're excited. It’s all about framing it in the right way. Are you really nervous, or are you excited? 

    Expert Empires champions female speakers. Nick wants Expert Empires to be a place where both aspiring men and women can come and learn. The decision to have a large female representation on their speaking panels is to re-address the balance. If you have 50% females coming to a talk then why would you use 80% male speakers. 
 

    BEST MOMENTS

    ‘I gained £100,000 worth of expertise for free just because I was volunteering as a microphone runner.’

    ‘Every personal trainer should have a personal trainer. You need to buy into what you’re selling, because if you don’t why should your customers.’

    ‘We are all experts in something. There is something in your life that you could specialise in’

    ABOUT THE GUEST

    Nick dropped out of university at the age of 21, and failed spectacularly with his first coaching business, which forced him to take a £16k/yr telesales job. Within 12 months he was top performer and left to start his second business at 24. This time he discovered a winning formula and before long had a multi-six-figure company. He then made a huge mistake which nearly put him out of business and cost him £50,000 in personal cash! Fortunately, Nick kept it afloat, turned it round, and sold that business 2 years later in a seven-figure deal. 
    He then co-founded a multi-million-pound marketing company, which he exited in 2015, and created Expert Empires. Today, Expert Empires is known as the UK's number one business event for Experts, with world-renowned celebrity speakers like Gary Vaynerchuk, Grant Cardone, Chalene Johnson, David Goggins, and Lewis Howes gracing the stage.
    Nick also specialises in helping Coaches, Consultants, Speakers, Trainers, and Authors take their businesses from zero to six figures and beyond through his Expert Empires Mastermind programme.
