  • Rockin Brand Through Design With Simon Clements!
    Not everyone is born to be an artist (well, which is the same with the fact that not everyone is born to be an entrepreneur). When you can’t seem to keep the ball rolling on your own, especially with the brand, it’s time to accept that maybe you need some extra (creative) hands.
    In this episode of the Women Rockin Business, we take measures on how to stop what most businesses are having problems with—lack of brand consistency, lack of personal branding, and low-quality designs. Traci talks to an expert in the creatives department, Simon Clements from SC23. Simon introduces some new creative ideas and solutions to arrive at a more personal branding to let your business thrive. Start tuning in to know more.
    KEY TAKEAWAYS
    As an entrepreneur/business owner, you don’t have to do every single task inside your company. If you know nothing about brand design, then you know nothing about it. Consider leveraging talents so you can focus more on what you do well.
    You get what you pay for. If you only allocate a little for an ambitious design, then most likely, you get a subpar work. Invest on someone who understands your business objectives, brand, so you can efficiently collaborate with them.
    Brand is important. The market has become saturated, and it has been difficult to stand out among the competition. A unique and effective brand will make a big difference.
    Having a personal brand helps. Let your personality come across. It’s easier to position yourself as an expert when they see you online engaging with people solving their problems.
    Tip: When you get your logo designed by someone, you need to have it in vector format.
    Tip: The logo should be conceptualised to fit also your corporate documents (e.g. business cards, letterheads, memos, etc.)

  • Standing Up And Standing Out – with Cate Walter
    Cate Walter is the owner and director of two award-winning businesses, a coach, one of f:Entrepreneur’s Top 100 UK Businesswomen of 2019, an ex-primary school teacher, and most certainly a woman who knows how to rock business!
     
    In this week’s show, Cate joins Traci to talk about the extreme highs and lows she’s faced, her advocacy of flexible working, how to empower women to achieve their best in business, the key to ongoing development and why it matters, and the issues facing women in the workplace today.  
     
    KEY TAKEAWAYS
     
    Cate and her husband took a huge gamble on their first business. They only had operating costs for a month. Luckily, her drive and determination saw to it that they found instant success.
     
    Rhino Safety’s approach was to bring accessibility and common sense back to health and safety. Their unique approach and singular image led to good word of mouth and accolades.
     
    Cate and her husband decided that pursuing awards might be an effective way of increasing their business profile. The strategy worked. Award winners tend to get lots of press attention, which further increased their credibility and visibility, leading to more client enquiries.
     
    It’s unfortunate that women who work with their husbands are often overlooked during communication, and can even be ignored during interaction. 
     
    The more Cate has progresses, the more she has noticed that women often feel that they are kept down in business, in sometimes subtle ways, such as child care. Small things that gradually build up until women can suffer a crisis of confidence.
     
    Segregating sections of life is not healthy. Personal issues can impact your business life, and that’s okay. 
     
    Nobody needs to be put in boxes. Women should not feel as though they have a choice between either having a career or a family. They should not be naturally expected to be the parent who is expected to take care of not just work, but the home.
     
    There’s far less pressure on women to feel intimidation or expectation when working in a women-only environment. There is a far greater sense of stereotyping when the sexes are mixed. Women feel impostor syndrome, and the sense that they have to constantly prove themselves.
     
    BEST MOMENTS
     
    ‘Until you take the plunge and do it, you don’t realise how hard you’re willing to work for something’
     
    ‘Health and safety consultancy isn’t a sexy business’
     
    ‘Visibility puts you in the way of opportunity’
     
    ‘Our businesses are OUR businesses’
     
    ‘Women need to talk about issues that face them’
     
    ‘We need to stand up and stand out’
     
    ‘In a women-only environment, women tend to open up more’

  • Why You SHOULD be Materialistic
    ‘Have you been be shamed for having materialistic goals?’ 
    There is a social unacceptance about having goals that are money orientated and materialistic as if it’s something wrong or dirty. 
    If you haven’t reached your lifestyle or freedom metric it’s imperative that you are materialistic and Traci shares why this is crucial to anyone’s journey.  
    To ultimately give back and impact on the world you need to have first achieved your own goals to give you the time freedom that makes it possible, listen in to find out how in this fascinating episode. 
     
    KEY TAKEAWAYS 
    If you haven’t reached your lifestyle or freedom metric it’s imperative that you are materialistic. 
    Money is not the be-all and end-all but it is when you don’t have it. 
    If you haven’t reached your lifestyle or freedom metric then money is going to be extremely important to you. 
    Freedom metric – this is when you are earning enough money that it covers all bills and you no longer think about them being paid. 
    Lifestyle metric – this is all the things that are important to you. It is achieved when the money you receive regularly is enough to cover all the things of importance to you. 
    If you want to have more impact in the world you have to have time freedom and this comes from having money. 
    Being materialistic is an imperative part of your goal setting and this is part of the journey. 
    By being materialistic, by creating and achieving your goals you are in a better position to do more and have a greater  impact. 
      
    BEST MOMENTS 
    ‘I wholeheartedly recommend you set materialistic goals’ 
    ‘Without money, you are stuck in a place where you are always struggling for time’ 
    ‘Hitting that freedom metric is such a sweet spot and it takes a lot of the worry away and then when you achieve the lifestyle metric it’s even better’

  • How to Write  a Book of Your Own & Why You Should: Interview with Lucy McCarraher of Re-Think Press Publishing the Books of Entrepreneurs.
    ‘A book helps you to have a voice and for that voice to be heard. It’s a business tool like no other, nothing impresses people like a book’ 
    Lucy McCarraher is the Co-founder and Managing Editor of Re-Think Press, a hybrid press publishing the books of entrepreneurs. She is also the publish mentor of the ‘key person of influence program’ an accelerator program for entrepreneurs and founded the Business Book Awards which is now in its third successful year. 
    Traci and Lucy discuss why writing a book is so important and how it is a powerful business tool for anyone wanting to move forward in their business. If you have ever wondered about the process then this is the episode for you providing great detail about how and why you should be writing and publishing the book you have inside you. 
      
    KEY TAKEAWAYS 
    I grew up wanting to be a writer. My first book was a non-fiction book about work-life balance. 
    As a business person, an entrepreneur your book is there as a business tool. It’s there to position you as an expert, be a lead generator for your business, to position you as an authority. 
    Getting a book out there is a way of saying here I am and is a way of selling yourself which is something women can find difficult to do. 
    I have developed a mentoring program exclusively for women who are writing their own book. 
    A book can seem like a huge undertaking but with a business book, most of it is already in your head. 
    Your experience, perspective and journey are unique you need to show people where you’ve done your learning, it’s about being honest and authentic. 
    Your book is valuable and if only one person benefits it is worth doing. It is also beneficial to you bringing clarity to your work and is there as a resource that can be revisited and reused. 
    If you have put together 30,000 plus words on your area then you are an influential person and have credibility. 
    You have to breakdown the process and dismantle the fear. 
    Position and plan your book creating a detailed blueprint before you begin writing. 
    A book is a gender-neutral way to show your authority. It can seem like a daunting task but it’s a process and can be broken down. 
      
    BEST MOMENTS 
    ‘Your book when positioned right has a kind of magic to it’ 
    ‘In the first year of the business book awards, we had 11 lovely white male winners’ 
    ‘If you have a reasonably successful business you have a book to write and it will help to grow your business, visibility and credibility’

  • Business Observation; Make More Money!
    Traci business mentor and mindset coach is talking about business observation and the importance of this for any business wanting to maximise profit.
    How can I make more money now? What am I leaving on the table? What isn’t resonating with people? Is my message getting across? Do I have continuity?
    These are some of the questions Traci explores when she carries out a diagnostic review of a business. in this episode, she shares in detail how to review your business social media presence and what you must have in place to maximise your impact and profit.
     
    KEY TAKEAWAYS
    Reviewing social media
    Is there a continuity of message?
    People need to be able to recognise what it is that you do and recognise you – your brand awareness.
    Make sure you have continuity of message, are your images a representation of the message you want to share?
    Contact details must be up to date and easy for people to get in touch
    You will lose credibility if people can’t get in touch easily
    The ‘about me’ page - people have come to your social media because they want something from you.
    Have you got the solution to their problem?
    If you have the product or service to solve their problem they will then want to find out about you – they want to see if they can trust you
    This is when they want to find out about you and be taken on a journey. This is when they will want to find out more about you.
     
    BEST MOMENTS
    ‘If there is a discord in your message people will not trust your message’
    ‘It’s all about the psychological response people have, how they feel about you’
    ‘If you are in an area of expertise where people have to be vulnerable they will want to trust you and if you have had similar experiences they will find this easier’

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Business Suicide or Business Sense?
    In this fascinating episode Traci shares, some of the questions and comments she has received and explores the most frequent comment - around her serving female entrepreneurs.
    This open discussion provides an opportunity to understand a range of different perspectives and will help you to work out what you want in your business and how you want to market it. Listen in and find out more.
     
    KEY TAKEAWAYS
    If you are serving female entrepreneurs is that business sense or business suicide?
    I understand that one size does not fit all but predominately it is still women who juggle the responsibility of children whatever their role.
    I’m juggling having children and running my business, I am able to identify with and communicate more easily, gearing my content, advice and strategies around having to take care of children.
    Is that business suicide or business sense?
    In business to attract the right client, you need to be able to speak their language and identify their needs.
    As a business coach, you need to be the person who helps with the strategies, guidance and tools to make the most of the time available.
    Isn’t it sexist to only deal with female entrepreneurs?
    I’ve coached men in the past but my area of expertise as a mum to 5 girls gives me a unique perspective on what it takes to juggle parenting, running the business and being the main carer for the children.
    I am able to identify with the entrepreneur who has been in business for a couple of years and is still trying to find the balance between taking care of their children, running their business and running their home whilst trying to find their area of expertise.
     
    BEST MOMENTS
    ‘It doesn’t need to be a male-female divide but it must be a niche area where you can identify with them and they feel you understand them and speak their language’
    ‘I wholeheartedly believe you cannot be everything to all people’
    ‘I don’t see it as being sexist it’s just I’m able to identify with the people who have those particular issues’

  • Grab Your Audience Immediately And Effectively – with Adam Collins
    Adam Collins’ focus is on helping businesses achieve a tangible return on investments through integrating marketing and design. As the director of CurrantWeb, Adam has a vast experience and knowledge of both web and digital marketing that has been acquired over many years.
     
    Adam joins Traci today to give you some really practical advice about how, and why, you should make your website your base of operations.  
     
    KEY TAKEAWAYS
     
    With the rise of DIY website builders such as Wix and Squarespace, web designers have found themselves increasingly having to haggle with customers, who are often short of funds at the beginning of their journey. This subsequently leads to web designers undercutting themselves in order to compete, and ultimately cut corners.
     
    There is a real underestimation of what a website is. It’s not just a static page, but a collection of operations and systems behind the scenes, too.
     
    The problem with using social media as your base of operations, is that you’re never fully in control. You don’t have any control over algorithms, and you can never plan for costs as you are subject to any price rises imposed there.
     
    When designing your website, make sure you do it for the customer, and not for yourself. Profile your audience, ask them questions, and design with them in mind.
     
    You need to grab your audience’s attention within three seconds, when it comes to your website. Make sure your call to action is instant and powerful, and get those people converting!
     
    Marketing your website is equally as important as creating your website. you could have the best website in the world, but it’s no good if people don’t know about it.
     
    BEST MOMENTS
     
    ‘We wanted to make a product that fits in-between DIY website builders and bespoke’
     
    ‘It’s about taking control’
     
    ‘Your website is only as good as the purpose for which it is designed’
     
    ‘We don’t have a red button!’

  • Comfort Zones and Incremental Shifts
    Comfort zones have so many aspects. They aren’t just about goals.
    It’s important that we continuously push ourselves out of our comfort zones. When we stagnate, we tend to move backwards, especially in this world where everything is progressing rapidly. Today on the Women Rockin Business Podcast, Traci discusses how incremental shifts can greatly influence you to get out of your comfort zone. Most of the time, people who rush into things tend to fall down as fast as they got started. Though time is of the essence, changes or level ups should be implemented in an organised and steady manner. In this way, we are sure that progress really happens.
    KEY TAKEAWAYS
    Building your own baselines can make you push yourself out of your comfort zone. If you’ve already broken your track record, then set a new one.
    The concept of incremental shifts is a sure and steady process that will lead you to your goal. Incremental shifts make it easier for you to improve the systems from time to time and lessens the possibility of the systems to break down.
    Managing is not about managing tasks; it’s often about managing people, their behaviours, their reactions, etc. Most line managers aren’t a people person at the beginning, but they’re able to hone their communication and management skills through the time.
    Louise’s Hay Mirror Work – a profound way to understand yourself and to rewire your internal dialogues. For example, standing in front of your mirror, telling yourself how you love yourself and thinking how grateful you are to everything can really motivate and get you through each day.
    BEST MOMENTS
    “Where is it that we can add more value and bring in more of our return of investment? What do we need to do to achieve that?”
    “Many want to progress in their life, but they’re fearful of big changes.”
    “Awareness is the key.”
    “It’s a learned trait to slow down and listen.

  • Following Your Passion All The Way To Success – with Emily Dolan-Davies
    Making a living at the thing you love is a dream we all have, and our guest today is doing exactly that!
    Emily Dolan-Davies is a drummer born and bred in North London, who’s been lucky enough to “hit things professionally” for the past eleven years. She has toured the world, playing music with many artists and brands including Howard Jones, The Darkness, Bryan Ferry and Kim Wilde, and in 2016 opened her own studio, enabling her to record drums remotely for artists across the globe. 
    This business has been incredibly successful, so how has Emily enjoyed the transition from musician to entrepreneur, and how does she deal with being a woman in a male-dominated space. You’ll find out the answers, along with the story of Emily’s incredible life so far, in this week’s episode!
     
    KEY TAKEAWAYS
     
    Emily always wanted to play music, but couldn’t quite decide where it was that she fit in. Drumming just clicked for her. As soon as she began to play, she knew that it was where she belonged, and has followed her heart ever since.
    Diversity is a crucial ingredient in what makes Emily love her job. She far more enjoys being a session musician as it allows her to switch between different groups of people and different types of music.
    Part of being an entrepreneur is to recognise when something doesn’t fit, and being brave enough to admit that something is not working.
    In every entrepreneur’s journey, there is always a time when it becomes almost too challenging. We are offered the choice to walk away or keep going, and choose the latter is often the more-difficult. 
    Self-worth can often be linked to how often the phone rings, or how many sales are made. But validation should always come from the content you create, the product you produce, or the service you offer. 
    Finding out your business purpose is crucial as an entrepreneur, and part of that is remembering that your business or brand is not always about you. It can also be about the people you serve. You can take inspiration and motivation from knowing that the things you make can help people.
    Be kind to yourself. Have self-belief. You need to recognise that have a choice in everything, and that you’ve already come such a long way as a business owner.
    Find something that you would do for free. Whatever you choose to do, you have to love it more than anything in the world. There will be times when you ask yourself why you’re doing this, and as long as you can answer yourself, things will be alright
     
    BEST MOMENTS
     
    ‘If you can have that much fun while you’re working, then it isn’t really working’
    ‘You can’t find where you fit unless you try different things’
    ‘I was looking for an external fix, when the real issue was internal’
    ‘It doesn’t just motivate me. It genuinely inspires me’
    ‘I’m no perfect. In fact I’m far from perfect’
    ‘If you really love this, keep going, keep pushing’
    ‘Luck is just persistence and timing'
