The Value Whispering Podcast | Smarter Marketing that Helps You Become the Obvious Choice for Your Dream Clients

Welcome the Driven Female Entrepreneurs Podcast!

The weekly show that helps you dream bigger and achieve more in your business, by learning what works from successful female entrepreneurs.

In this episode

Welcome to the Driven Female Entrepreneur Podcast. This week as part of our Summer Business Festival, we'll be examining sales, which as an introverted and formerly timid girl, I was really astonished to find myself falling in love with.

I'll go over some of the five essential elements you should be aware of in order to have great sales conversations in which you can be your true self and enjoy welcoming more of your dream clients into your business.

One of the most important abilities for every business owner must be the ability to sell with assurance and authenticity, along with the ability to articulate your worth and conduct yourself with integrity in the marketplace.

Here are a handful of the earlier episodes of the program that will also aid with your sales mastery.

#51 Selling with Noble Purpose – Lisa McLeod #95 The Right Way to Sell via Social Media – Karen Cureton #97 The Roadmap to Increased Revenue – Kristin Zhivago #72 Why Selling = Service – Liz Dederer

I've created a separate blog post that lists these episodes for you, with a summary of their advice for you - CLICK THE LINK

"I thought sales was all about having a slick presentation and fancy words, but it's not that at all. It's about showing up as your true self, asking great questions and caring to listen. -Melitta Campbell"

Highlights

In this value-packed episode on Sales, you'll learn:

• The importance of getting permission before selling to someone.
• Why sales is service.
• How to create a sales experience.
• What your authenticity will bring to the table.
• The significance of having a product to sell.

"Create a sales experience for the customer that makes them feel happy, appreciated, and inclined to trust you." -Melitta Campbell

In this episode

Welcome to the Driven Female Entrepreneur Podcast. As a part of our Summer Business Festival, we are examining some of the timeless business building wisdom that has been shared on the show thus far—insights that can only come from the ups and downs of being an entrepreneur.

I'll also share some of the sayings and pieces of wisdom that, over the past 14 years, have helped me and my business.

In my opinion, the summer is a fantastic time to refocus, take stock, and find inspiration in order to move our businesses and ambitions ahead in September.

Here are some of the episodes from the show that I feel will really help you in this process.

#9 Blending Passion and Experience to Create your Own Niche – Maria Wilhelmsson #35 It's Time for Women – Giselle Rufer #48 Believing in your Vision – Britt-Marie Monks #8 Don't Worry about Failure, Focus on Figuring it Out – Lisa Cirieco #113 Zero Experience to One Million in Sales – Fiona Nicholls

I've created a separate blog post that lists these episodes for you, with a summary of their advice for you - CLICK THE LINK

I wanted to also share some quotes that have made a difference for me while I've been building my business as well:

"Whatever you do, make sure it results in choices."

• There is no wrong decision, if it takes us towards our vision.
• Sometimes making a difficult decision will force you to grow.
• Tiptoe out of your comfort zone and expand your realm of possibility.

"Progress over Perfection." & "Practice makes Progress"

• Move away from the idea of perfection - it doesn't really exist!
• Focus and celebrate every milestone, even the smallest steps forward.
• The more we practice, the more momentum we create.

"Mindset is Everything"

• When you change your way of thinking, everything can change dramatically.
• Develop habits that will help you take the right actions and build confidence over time.
• Start a gratitude journal.
• Knowing the importance of never assuming anything.

"Begin with the end in mind." - Stephen Covey

• Always consider the final step that you believe will be most helpful to your clients.
• Have the vision, but stay open-minded.

Welcome the Driven Female Entrepreneurs Podcast!

The weekly show that helps you dream bigger and achieve more in your business, by learning what works from successful female entrepreneurs.

In this episode

Hi, Welcome to the Driven Female Entrepreneur Podcast.

I'm your host, Melitta Campbell, award winning business coach and marketing veteran, and Value Whisperer.

This week as part of our Summer Business Festival we're looking at how to run a growing business around your family – and stay sane!

It might not feel like it at times, especially when those ankle biters are around 24/7 for the next 7 weeks, but yes, I can promise you it's possible. :)

As with everything there will be good days, bad days and days when you feel overwhelmed and if you are letting everyone down, and just want to go back to bed and forget it all and that's OK. We may be super women in many respects, but do need to remind ourselves that at the end of the day we are all human and there is only so much we can do.

One thing I love that has come out of the podcast is that there is no one way to build a business, especially when you are doing so around a family.

Today, I will share with you some of the things I've done to help me run my business over the last 14 years around my growing family, but before I dive in, I wanted to highlight a few of the other episodes you'll find valuable if you are a parent with ambition:

#52 Business After Babies – Lori Mihalich-Levin#67 Backyard Sales to Global Brand – Kelley Higney#71 Successful Freelancing as a Mum – Abbi Perets#20 Building Your Business Around Your Family – Malva Gasowski #25 Time and Productivity Techniques that Work for Women – Megan Sumrell#93 The Marketing Mindset – Teresa Heath-Wareing

I've created a separate blog post that lists these episodes for you, with a summary of their advice for you – Click the Link

"Every single day, take some time to do something just for you. Do something that makes you happy and feeds your soul." -Melitta Campbell

So in today's episode, I want to share with you 5 things that have made a big difference for me, and that I hope will help you get out there more consistently too, and with more confidence and impact.

1. Have a plan : priorities and time activities

• Know what your ONE priority is for the day (max. three), so you can end the day feeling accomplished.
• Give your activities a time – so if, for e.g., you only have 10 minutes, you can fill it productively and still move consciously move your business forward – sticky note wall plan.

2. Set clear boundaries – and stick to them!

• Time for your business
• Time for you
• Time for your kids
• Time for your other relationships and hobbies

Physical boundaries can help too – the day I got a proper door on my office was a game changer!

3. Be Kindful

• Never put yourself down, or think bad of yourself.
• Be aware of your negative self-talk.
• Be kindful – remind yourself that you are doing the best you can with the resources available to you.

4. Mindset

Time Line therapy – guilt, anger, sadness, fear,

If you need help with that, then do reach out – I have a six-week Positive Entrepreneurship mindset programme that I've created specifically to tackle the biggest challenges and blocks we encounter as business owners, so you can quickly remove your blocks and limiting beliefs and move forward faster and with greater confidence.

5. Self-care

• Put your own oxygen mask on first, it's always so important
• If you don't care for yourself first, you won't have the energy or time for your business or family

6. Ask for Help

I burned out of my 1st business for two reasons. Firstly, I was no longer doing work that I loved and aligned with my personality, values or goals. Secondly, I was trying to do everything by myself – and none of us can do that for long. I had a cleaner and my kids were at creche two days a week, but that was the extent of it. My husband travelled a lot, so I was left with a LOT to do.

I was watching Lucifer recently and loved the episode where his Mum – for punishment – has to live as a human working Mum. This usually powerful and elegant woman was soon brought to her knees trying to cope – until she figured out how to ask for help and focus on what she was best at and enjoyed most. I don't necessarily recommend her method of asking, but I thought it nicely highlighted the reality for so many women, and how transformational it can be to get the help we need.

So don't go it alone on any level. And surround yourself with others who understand your challenges and path, and can provide moral support and insights too. I created the Dream Clients Club FB group to provide you with just such a group so if you haven't already, come along and join us there.

7. Involve your Kids

When they were toddlers, they scribbled marketing plans and tapped away on laptops they had proudly made from cereal boxes. It bought me a few extra minutes to work on admin and they loved feeling part of my world.

Since then, they have taken all sorts of entrepreneurial and mindset training as I've listened to CDs or videos while driving around or doing chores. They've helped me price products and create beautiful gift packaging. They've helped me design exhibition stands (well, tables) and speak to customers. And now they are starting to give me advice on my social media. Involving them in my business has given them a rich real-life business education and they have loved it.

Not only that, they have taken these lessons and used them in their own projects. They've raised more than £3,000 for the WWF and childhood cancer charities by making their own products, publishing books, creating websites and hosting tables at local fairs. And they are still only 12 and 14!

It's been so rewarding seeing them create a plan, see it through and feel proud of their results. The best part, they haven't even questioned if they could do it, they just got on with it – a big lesson for me!

My kids are also my mentors and accountability buddies. They are always interested in how my business is going, what I plan to do next and how they can help. In my 'wobble moments' they are there to encourage me to take a breath, break things down, and take a small action in the right direction. They consistently inspire me to keep going and keep growing.

So, as I say, involving kids can be chaotic, but the upsides are tremendous.

So these are the seven biggest things I've done to help me manage a growing business, growing family, and keep my sanity (mostly) intact.

I'd love to know which of these has been most helpful for you – or If there is anything else that you do that helps you keep it all together.

Drop me a message or better still, come and share your ideas in the Dream Clients Club FB group.

Check out the group and the show notes to grab an eBook I created where I interviewed women about how they balance their business and babies. I put all their best advice in an ebook, alongside my own advice and bonus tips around productivity. And when you get a copy of the book, I'll also send you access to a Pocket Mentor app I've created to help you stay motivated and inspired every day.

As always, if you have found this helpful, don't keep this episode or show to yourself. Be the force for good within your community and share this episode with your business besties and network, and be sure to take a minute to review the show in iTunes or Spotify.

I've been Melitta Campbell, your business coach and value whisperer.

See you next week!

Welcome to the Driven Female Entrepreneur podcast. It's summer here in Europe so we'll be taking our usual summer break. This year I thought I'd do something a little bit different. I'll be doing a summer festival for the Dream Clients Club on Facebook and as well as for the Driven Female Entrepreneur Podcast!

I'm going to publish a number of podcasts, blog entries, and social media updates that will take a look back at some of the most popular episodes from the last two seasons of the show, and I'll be looking at some of the most popular and timeless advice from past guests.

The festival will kick off next week, so stay tuned!

I am really excited to see you!

In this episode

In this episode of the Driven Female Entrepreneur Podcast, I speak with Fiona Nicholls, the CEO of Swiss Toniq Geneva.

When she was 16 years old, Fiona dropped out of school and spent most of her life working with horses. She raised her kid by herself and never had a legitimate job, and began from scratch with no prior business experience.

In 2017, she was forced to give up her work after an accident damaged her spine and required at least a year of lying down. However, she made the conscious decision to make the most of this trying period by beginning research on skincare, her second passion.

Now, she works with ladies over 35 to use a special line of high-performance, natural products to treat dry or irritated skin and to help reverse ageing. Fiona has already won four major skincare awards, including Best Swiss Skincare Brand and Best Organic Skincare Brand in Europe, as a consequence of her extensive research into stem cells, ancient botanical plants, and formulation.

Don't miss this episode to learn more about Fiona's story and how she built a successful business by creating a unique product with nothing more than her passion and a lot of hard work.

"We were programmed to think we have to do all these university studies, do apprenticeship, work in a company, and learn how it works, but there are so many different ways of running a business." - Fiona Nicholls

Highlights

In this value-packed episode you'll learn:

• Why you don't need a business education to succeed in business.
• The importance of studies and trials.
• Why it's crucial to learn what works for yourself before outsourcing.
• How a solid product that you believe in is central to your success.
• How mindset coaching and meditation can help you further your growth.
• How finding a good business coach can save you time and money.
• Why not knowing the next step can be a good thing.

"I think there are not enough women who use mindset coaching, to uncover their potential. It's really incredibly important and very life changing." - Fiona Nicholls

About Fiona

Born and raised in England, Fiona Nicholls is the founder of Swiss Toniq Geneva, a unique brand of high performance, natural anti-ageing products for women over 40.

The success of Swiss Toniq is the consequence of a horse-riding accident at the beginning of 2017 that left Fiona bedridden for the best part of a year with a broken spine. While the accident destroyed her lifelong equestrian career overnight, it gave her the time to study for a new career following her passion for natural, clean skincare.

Fiona's intensive studies of ancient botanical plants, stem cells and product formulation has already resulted in four major skincare awards including Best Swiss Skincare Brand and Best Organic Skincare Brand (Europe).

In this episode

In this episode of the Driven Female Entrepreneur Podcast, I speak with Johdi Woodford, a Restorative Movement Specialist and the founder of Johdi Woodford Therapeutics.

Prior to her success, Johdi held a highly lucrative position at a private bank, which later evolved into a similarly successful consultancy business. However, even at that point, she came to the realisation that this was still not what she wanted.

In 2014, she opened a Pilates studio, which was very successful. However, when COVID came along in March 2020, it became much more challenging for her to maintain the business while also keeping her mental health. So this gave her an excuse to return to her initial purpose and start something new.

Now she works with women over the age of 40, to help them find the source of their pain and cure it so it doesn't return. Her multimodal method is unlike any other since no one else combines accurate anatomical and physiological corrective exercise expertise with a witch-like capacity to cure, that her clients describe as "magic."

Don't miss this episode to discover more about Johdi's journey, as she shares a wealth of advice on how to uncover the root cause of your pains in life and start fixing them.

"I really believe that discipline equals freedom. I find the easiest path to whatever goal I want to get to and then systematise it. It gives me a great sense of comfort." - Johdi Woodford

Highlights

In this value-packed episode you'll learn:

• How to figure out your zone of genius.
• Why having lots of support is not always beneficial.
• The importance of listening to your body and getting rid of your compensation patterns.
• How to sell something intangible.
• The benefits of slowing down and staying still.
• A manageable way to systematise your path to success.

"When your work feels easy, you can feel like a fraud. But it really means you are working in your zone of genius. You're allowed to just relax and be good at something. You don't have to struggle all the time." - Johdi Woodford

About Johdi

Welcome the Driven Female Entrepreneurs Podcast!

The weekly show that helps you dream bigger and achieve more in your business, by learning what works from successful female entrepreneurs.

In this episode

In this episode of the Driven Female Entrepreneur Podcast, I speak with Mine Uran, the CEO & Co-Founder of Alver World SA.

Mine Uran has been looking for the ultimate substitute to animal protein for almost 20 years. She worked as a food engineer for companies like Unilever and DuPont, and then as the Head of Protein at Nestlé. Her original focus as a worldwide recognized protein expert was on plant proteins such as soy and pea proteins.

When she discovered that microalgae offered a sustainable source of protein, she switched her focus, but found it hard to get support from Corporate. Believing that businesses were not doing enough to address sustainability and climate change, she decided to use her time and energy to start her own business instead. Mine quit her job and co-founded Alver with Majbritt Byskov-Bridges, to turn to the world's oldest living creatures: microalgae, into a source of sustainable nutrition.

Now her aim is to create healthy and sustainable food for today's and tomorrow's societies, promoting more sustainable eating habits and using her company's products to contribute to future food security.

Don't miss this episode to discover more about Mine's journey, as she shares a wealth of advice including how being brave is a must for managing a start-up and why trusting in others helps them win.

"If you have your clear vision I recommend you communicate it and be bold. We can be bold. We should be much bolder." - Mine Uran

Highlights

In this value-packed episode you'll learn:

• The value of having a partner who believes in your work
• How to be resourceful in a start-up
• Why having a clear vision of your product is crucial
• The importance of having a variety of products while presenting in retail
• Why assembling a team that shares your vision is critical to your success
• How to manage and inspire a team

"Listen to your inner voice and have the courage to do it. And when you go into business with your whole heart, it will function. It will be a success." - Mine Uran

About Mine

For over 20 years, Mine Uran has been searching for the perfect alternative to animal protein. As a food engineer, Mine led teams at Unilever and DuPont, and finally as Head of Protein at Nestlé. As a globally recognised protein expert, her initial focus was on plant proteins, such as those from soy or peas. However, due to the high demand for arable land and water, Mine understood that the path to sustainable nutrition could only be taken by the oldest living creatures on earth: microalgae. So Mine left Nestlé and founded Alver together with Majbritt Byskov-Bridges. Their aim is to provide healthy and sustainable food for the society of today and tomorrow.

Welcome the Driven Female Entrepreneurs Podcast!

The weekly show that helps you dream bigger and achieve more in your business, by learning what works from successful female entrepreneurs.

In this episode

In this episode of the Driven Female Entrepreneur Podcast, I speak with Bryna Haynes, the founder and CEO of WorldChangers Media.

Bryna, like many of our guests on this show, came into her business by chance. She went to hairdressing school and worked at a salon after high school and much as she loved the work, it did not fulfill her intellectually. In her mid-twenties, she decided to fulfill a cherished passion and started writing professionally.

She began as a freelancer, working in a variety of fields until a book coach saw her work and recommended she try her hand at ghostwriting. She started taking projects for her clients and found herself immersed in the world of inspirational literature, and she was soon functioning as the main editor for a tiny publishing business.

She also created a mindset coaching and events company, which came to a halt once corona hit, and left her in debt. She felt as if the world had smacked her straight back into publication, something she had avoided since she didn't feel she wasn't able to use her own voice.

This is when she decided to go in a direction that would suit her and enable her to guide world-changing people in bringing their ideas to the world in a way that would benefit mankind on a grand scale.Today, she helps hundreds of thought leaders, teachers, healers, and enlightened entrepreneurs significantly uplevel their expert status through best-selling, impact-driven books as a book strategist, speaker, ghostwriter, and editor.

Don't miss this episode to discover more about Bryna's path, as she gives a ton of great tips on how to publish books that will radically change lives today — and still be relevant a decade from now.

"Confidence to me is something different, it's about trusting myself to do my best, not about feeling confident that I had all the answers." - Bryna Haynes

Highlights

In this value-packed episode you'll learn:

• How our conditioning can affect how we do business
• The importance of trusting yourself to do your best
• Why it is critical to work with clients that value you and your work
• A manageable way to integrate our experiences and learn from them
• How to bring your own thought leadership into the world
• Why the 'imitation integration' phase is important before becoming a thought leader

"Let's all be willing to integrate the fullness of who we are and all of the experiences we've had not judging their relevance but learning from whatever it was that they presented to us." - Bryna Haynes

About Bryna

Bryna Haynes is the founder and CEO of WorldChangers Media. As a book strategist, speaker, ghostwriter, and editor, she has helped hundreds of thought leaders, teachers, healers, and enlightened entrepreneurs radically uplevel their expert status through best-selling, impact-driven books. Titles she claims in her spare time include: self-reinvention savant, dragon tamer, luxury travel hacker, and connoisseur of kick-ass boots.
