Before her success, Rachel always knew she wanted to build something. She wanted something entertaining and creative to get people excited about social media marketing while also allowing her to have flexibility, independence, and growth. This meant she had to try a lot of different things before finding the ideal fit.

When the epidemic hit, she saw an opportunity and founded 'Making Business Social', a company that lets businesses outsource their marketing and social media. But she soon realised that as good as her services were, people want to get to know the real face of the business - the founder and team. So she switched focus.Today, she shows small business owners exactly how to do their own social media, without becoming overwhelmed. Her tools help them take control of their marketing so that they have the strategy and confidence to demonstrate their sector expertise, unlock the full potential that social media offers, and get the best results from their online presence.

• Manageable ways to stop wasting time on social media

"A really good way to cut the social media overwhelm is to systemize and organize your content, making it easy to reuse or repurpose." -Rachel Allen

About Rachel

Rachel Allen is on a mission to help busy business owners to take control of their marketing so that they've got the strategy, tools and confidence to demonstrate their expertise in their sector. Having provided outsourced social media marketing for SMEs since 2016 and realised that it's not the right way to get the best results for her clients, she's now using her 20 years marketing experience to help business owners take back control of their social media marketing.

Rachel lives in the city of roundabouts (Milton Keynes) with her 8-year-old son, but dreams of living by the sea. In her spare time, she enjoys a bit of yoga and running the odd marathon.

In this episode of the Driven Female Entrepreneur Podcast, I speak with Adina Jacobs, the Co-Founder & Head of Product of STM Brands as well as the Co-Founder of Mentor Walks Australia.

Before launching her own business in 1998, Adina worked as an accessories buyer for a fast fashion brand. While talking to her now co-founder about the challenge of transporting his new laptop safely, they uncovered a vital need for computer accessories that were both useful and fashionable.

Using Adina's product development knowledge, they learned that there was nothing else out there in the market and decided to create a solution that was comfy, organized, looked great and, most importantly, safeguarded tech items.

Now, the very established STM Goods (Smarter Than Most) has taken the lead in the development of ultra-protective laptop bags, packs, fitted cases, and other accessories while still devoting a lot of effort to understand how people use their devices so that they can create products that will make their lives easier.

About Adina

With a background in fast fashion, Adina Jacobs co-founded STM Goods in 1999 when she and fellow co-founder Ethan Nyholm realized there was a dire need for tech accessories that offered both function and style. In the decades since under her keen leadership and eye for consumer-facing solutions, STM Goods has led the industry in the creation of ultra-protective laptop bags, packs, fitted cases and other accessories.

When she isn't driving product development, Jacobs is leading Mentor Walks, a non-profit organization she co-founded that matches mentees with mentors to foster lifelong professional and personal connections.

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 Melani Sabhaney, an interior designer and the Co-founder and Director of Interspace.

Melani had a successful career and had no intention of starting a business. It wasn't until a sudden health event transformed her life forever and prompted her to rethink her life and what she really wanted from it.

She took the decision to become a freelance architect and said 'yes' to some exciting projects that pushed her out of comfort zone and helped her see her full potential. When the opportunity arose, she and a friend decided to use their complementary strengths to build a business together.

Thanks to her health issue, Melani recognised how valuable it is to do what you love. That doesn't mean she hasn't learned a LOT of valuable lessons while building her business, some of which she is still learning!

Listen to this episode to discover more.

"When you come so close to losing pretty much everything you wanted, you realise how valuable it is to do something you love and for me, that's design." - Melani Sabhaney
