March 15, 2022S3 Ep51: From stylist to fashion founder with Lynne Meek @themeekboutiqueuk
Stylist Lynne Meek joined Instagram in 2015 because her kids told her it would 'suit her creativity'. And they were right.

On the platform, she quickly found a tribe of women who loved her comfy-casual-glamorous look...but didn't know where to buy it. Because the clothes Lynne was posting weren't easily available in the shops.

So in 2018 Lynne launched her own online retail brand - The Meek Boutique - selling her style to her online audience. It now employs here whole family and is growing fast.

In this episode we chat about,
the graft involved with growing an online audience
listening to what your customer wants
turning a following into a profitable business
spreading your marketing bets
and the simple joy of an elasticated waist!

February 18, 2022 S3 Ep45: Does audience size matter? Answers in this #JustBloodyPostIt Note...
Chasing numbers is a game you'll never win.

It's impossible to be fully satisfied with the number of followers or subscribers you have. Humans aren't built for satisfaction, read this it explains.

So should we ignore audience size, be grateful for the fans we have and do something more Zen instead?

Partly yes, partly no.

Marketing on the internet will always be a numbers game.

I'm aiming to answer the questions how much does size matter and how big is big enough in this Post It Note. Listen and pop over to Instagram to let me know what you think.
