How would it feel to have a robust strategy, backed by realistic goals, and a strong understanding of your financial compliance obligations? That's exactly what I'm promising you as we dive into this episode, where we'll deep-dive into reviewing your previous year and setting robust objectives that align with your business' financial health.

Now, I know money talk can be daunting, but trust me, it needn't be. Whether it's 'Money Monday' or 'Finance Friday', we'll carve out an hour each week to focus on the numbers that count. Social media followers, mailing list members, customer retention rate, bank balance, and sales figures are just a few of the metrics we'll keep a close eye on. And don't worry about compliance, because we'll also navigate through those tricky waters, so you know exactly when and how to meet your obligations. If need be, I'll guide you on how you can outsource to a professional. So, gear up as we set up the financial foundations of your business for a successful year ahead.

If I had a dollar for every business owner not paying themself superannuation, I’d be a rich woman indeed. There are lots of reasons why business owners choose not to pay themselves super and believe me I’ve heard them all. But here’s the thing, if you’re under 60 and a business owner in 2023 and you’re not paying yourself super, then come retirement, you need to hope that you can sell your business for a pretty penny, you win lotto or come into money, or the government suddenly decides to pay a decent amount for the pension. And honestly, chances of it being the latter are slim.

Bottom line, if you want to retire on a modest income and be ok, then you need to be paying super. In this episode, I’m diving into superannuation in Australia and sharing the basics. 

Now, I’m no super expert and I don’t know your personal financial circumstances, so it goes without saying that before acting on anything you learn in today’s episode, you contact your accountant or financial planner for more advice.

Episode 100! I can’t quite believe it, but here we are, two years, 100 episodes, some incredible chats with some beautiful business women, all proud to stand in their definition of success, all with an interesting startup story and all prepared to offer you, my amazing listeners, their sage advice. 

When I was planning this episode, I wanted to do something special, so I invited three very special women in my life, Magdaleen Kelly, Rebecca Saunders and Hayley Hoile to chat about something we all agree is central to female lead business and that’s Collaboration, Community and the power of Connection. 

In this podcast we’re sharing our thoughts on the tops, but each of my special guests is sharing how working with other women in business has helped them grow their business to what it is today. 

Here’s a little more about each guest:

Rebecca Saunders – the one and only video Ninja, champion of women in business and a wonderfully wise business woman. Rebecca has a way of looking at a situation with a completely different light and her take on my business sale gave me the courage to negotiate a better deal, bite the bullet and sell part of my business. Rebecca's new venture for 2023, The Champagne Lounge, of which I’m a proud member, is the essence of exactly what we’re talking about today. 

Get in touch with Rebecca via Instagram or on the website.

Magdaleen Kelly  - aka Mags is a trusted friend and truly one of the good humans. Mags has an incredible bookkeeping and compliance business specialising in Xero solutions for small business; she’s one of those tech, puzzle solving gurus we all need on our team. Need a Xero health check, Aquavantage is the place to go.

Get in touch with Magdaleen via Instagram or on the website.

Hayley Hoile – if you need an online business manager, admin, social media or website solution then Hayley is your go-to gal; she just gets it! Hayley is a connector

Money stories? Are they really a thing and do they really impact your business?

Everywhere you look, whether it’s on TV, social media or the internet, there’s talk about money, interest rates, doom, gloom, what might happen when. The result? Triggers left and right, customers not showing up and buying, purse tightening, you get the picture. And that’s where the dreaded money story rears its head. 

Honestly, up until about 10 years I didn’t know it was even a thing but after a friend suggested I do this quiz from Kendall Summerhawk to help battle my own money demons, I realised there might be something in it. I weighed up the pros and cons and started to make some much needed money changes. 

So, what’s your money story and how is it impacting your business? Dive into today’s episode where I share all about it. Oh and if you liked the quiz above and want to do another one, here’s one by arguably Kendall’s top student Denise Duffiled Thomas.
