  • #53 - How to Build & Sell a Profitable Ecommerce Business at Only 14 Years Old!

    I love today's episode!

    Earlier this year my husband & I sold our Amazon business and started to buy small e-commerce businesses with growth opportunity.

    We came across an EarPod business and fell in love with the founder more than the business!

    Peter Samios is 14 years old and spent 18 months building Fuzepods, an e-commerce store selling wireless EarPods (I can’t call them AirPods as that’s Apple’s product but that’s pretty much what they are).

    He decided to sell his business primarily because his parents told him he needed to focus on his studies, but also as he revealed to me in the podcast he had become a bit ‘bored’ with the business and wanted to look at new opportunities!

    He is such an inspiring young man and even more so for jumping on today's episode to walk us through his journey.

    Apologies for the quality of the video, I was new to Zoom and thought I might just record this as an audio, but a friend encouraged me to upload the video also, so feel free to watch or listen!

  • #52 - How to Stand Head & Shoulders Above Your Competition

    I'm so passionate about todays topic. I honestly believe this is the magic ingredient to ensuring your uniqueness no matter who you're up against in your niche or industry.

    If you can clearly define the higher purpose of your business, the whole reason for it's existence and how it impacts your potential audience and customers and then communicate that through your brand, your content and your entire business ethos, no-one else can touch you!

    You will shine like a beacon through all the noise online and easily attract the very people you want to resonate with.

    Also because you're so clear about what you stand for you'll find it easy to create content and dominate your online communication channels.

    How Mom & Daughter are Helping Change the World with Ecommerce

    “You really need to know where your products are coming from and we think that every purchase should have a purpose.” Christine Sacramone

    This Monday, I interview Mum and Daughter duo Christine and Madison Sacramone, founders of High 5 Humans, an eCommerce store specializing in Fair Trade & Handmade Fashion Accessories. What is special about this duo is that they work with organizations all around the world who in turn work with women and people in developing countries who make their handmade products. Therefore, Christine and Madison through their enterprise actively help women in third world countries to grow their business and income, thereby transforming their lives, lives of their families, and their villages.

    In this episode, you will find out how Christine and Madison find their artisanal suppliers, how they manage their stocks, how they advertise their products, and why telling a story is more important than selling a product. Furthermore, you will learn how to start a similar business on a budget!

  • #46 - Women! Find & OWN Your Unique Voice

    Are you aware of how powerful & unique you are, just as you are?

    How many times do we second guess or doubt ourselves. Maybe we stop ourselves from doing things we know would take us closer to our goals because we're worried that maybe we're not as good as we think we could be or we're worried about what others may think or say.

    Perhaps we believe somewhere deep down we don't have the skills required to make 'it' work, or we're not as good as someone else in our niche so why try to compete?

    You, beautiful lady. Yep you, I'm talking directly to you, are amazing just as you are and have everything you need within you right now to create the life you truly want to live.

    It's time to find that voice within you and get out there and OWN IT! Let's go...

  • #45 - Passport to Fitness (for home based entrepreneurs)

    There is nothing worse than feeling tired, sluggish & desperately lacking in energy, particularly if we’re trying to build the business & life of our dreams and even more so when we want to go bounding around the world exploring new places & cultures.

    It’s easy to simply say eat more fruit & veg, drink more water & do more exercise but as someone who’s been on a long & arduous health journey myself the last few years I’m not sure it’s that simple.

    That’s why I was so happy to interview travel & fitness guru Nate Palmer creator of n8trainingsystems.com & author of the aptly titled book - Passport to Fitness.

    I must admit I did use the interview as a bit of a personal coaching session but if you’re looking to shift a few pounds, get fitter, stronger & healthier & have the energy to suck the juice out of every day then you’ll live his tips & advice.

    Enjoy! 😁

    I’ve recently increased my own productivity beyond measure. I’m getting more done in a day now than I used to in a week, sometimes even longer. I’m no longer spending my days thinking or planning or getting distracted on social media. I’m just ‘doing’! And the great part is I’m loving it!

    There is no need to be in a constant state of stress or overwhelm my friend. Life is far too short for all of that.

    I have made some very specific changes to my life to create this shift and in todays episode I’m excited to share the key steps I have taken to get more done and create so much more enjoyment in my working life!
