Planted all of the veges that we eat. Can’t wait to walk out with a basket and grab what we need for dinner. Feel like I’m living in little house on the prairie! Until a couple of weeks lasts and half of it is killed by bugs and disease that I have no idea how to control. Have you ever read organic gardening forums? This stuff ain’t easy.... if you garden - give me your best tips for a healthy bounty! 🙏🏼🙏🏼 
So what does it cost to actually run an online business? Well, like all business, it's different for everyone. But here's how I run my finances. 💰 By working with percentages it means that I don't overspend and as the business grows, so does my allowance for the other areas that I need to spend on. I find profit in online business ridiculously great compared with traditional business, but there's of course still expenses. As I've reached over the $1m now, software and equipment has dropped to under 1% but I've made up for it in course costs 🙂 Half of my revenue comes from membership which is more of an experience than a straight up course so I spend quite a lot of guest expert speakers, parties, retreat and gifts. My marketing cost is pretty low because we do mostly organic content marketing so my 10% is mostly affiliate fees and promo materials. I hope that helps to give you a guide. Everyone is different with what they choose to spend their money on, this is the breakdown that works for me. I divide the revenue after all taxes and merchant fees are paid at the end of every 90 days for the following 90 days to ensure there's always a buffer in the account and I don't level up my income or hire additional team until the affordability is there. Has this peek behind the curtain helps you with the finances in your business? 🤑 Save this post so you can refer to it next time you're reviewing you Profit & Loss statement and working out your own cash flow pie to work with. #kajabihero #coursecreationcoach #womeninbusiness #7figurebusiness #empirebuilder #businesswomen #herempirebuilder #australianbusiness #mumsinbusiness #womeninbiz 
One of the biggest lessons that I have learnt in life is that you have to make time for what matters most. ⏲️ I'm a 3 on the Enneagram and have ADD so I am all go go go ALL. THE. TIME. Until I'm not! 🤪 I am all about achieving the dreams and watching the confetti burst on my screen when I change another tasks to 'Done' on my Monday.com board. I'm always thinking about how we can do things bigger and better and how we can bring as many people along for the rise as possible. 🚀 I want to do it all! The thing I find hardest is waiting. But what I've learnt is that if you don't stop, the universe will bring in something to make you. Here in Australia we're heading into a long weekend and I am giving you permission to STOP. It's so easy to power on and fill our time with all of the thing that we know will advance the business to the next level, but believe me, there's time. You will speed up by slowing down. 🏖️ This year I've committed to working 4 day work weeks and having off one week every month to pause, think, stay creative and bring my best energy to the world. I deserve it, my clients deserve it and YOU deserve it. 💜 What will you be doing to recharge and have a laugh this weekend?

Final read through of my manuscript before handing into the publishers in the morning! Million Dollar Micro Business coming into the world July 2021!! 
As you know, I love all things colour and I first found Pink Nade last year when they made the greatest Christmas tree earrings ever. Then I got to know their story and it’s awesome sauce! Johanna is the owner/designer/maker with a team of three mothers in country Victoria, a town called Warracknabeal with a population of just 2,000! @pink_nade strives to create a community of empowered and supportive women. Inspiring kindness, inclusion and confidence. That’s a mission I can get behind! ✨ The new ‘Sunkissed’ collection has been released tonight and is absolutely gorgeous!! They come packaged beautifully and just to surprise and delight (though I’m kind of ruining the surprise) you get affirmation cards and a lot of ‘girl gang’ earrings with your first order to welcome you. Check them out! I’m wearing the pair that remind me of Palm Springs. Oh how I can’t wait to be back in Palm Springs! #pinknade 
First time in about ten years and I got up! Gosh I was nervous that I was going to make a fool of myself and leave disappointed. It’s the best feeling when you do something you’re not sure you’re able to do! May not be able to lift my arms tomorrow now 🤣 
I always think in business if people ask you enough for something and you love to do it - give it to them! Last year I was asked a lot for intensive days. Instead of learning through a course or an ongoing dripped membership, to come to me and just absolutely smash it and get clarity and clear direction all in one big ginormous day. So - here it is! 🌟 ELITE VIP IN PERSON STRATEGY DAY! 🌟 Let me tell you, it’s not for everyone! People’s minds can be left spinning after an hour with me. This is a full 7 hours of you sitting at my board table and drilling into your business, your hopes, your dreams and formulating a plan for you to have your most kick arse year ever! It includes having my undivided attention all day on your business as well as Mat (Kajabi expert) and Jarrah (my right hand woman) to go through everything that you have in your business and look to the future and what you want over the coming 5 years and make a plan for the next 12 months that will get you there. It’s a full on day that will leave you feeling so pumped and so clear with how you can make a reality out of those dreams in your heart. Obviously, it’s not cheap. It’s an investment to work with myself and my team for the full day. But, the aim is that you get it back many many times over in the future. Oh, and you get to stay with us here on our farm in our pink office, Casa Rosada! If you want to check it out, head over to tinatower.com/elite I will only be doing one per month so if you’d like to book in your Elite Intensive Day, let’s chat! . . . . #kajabihero #coursecreationcoach #womeninbusiness #7figurebusiness #empirebuilder #businesswomen #herempirebuilder #australianbusiness #mumsinbusiness #womeninbiz #casarosada #planningdays #australianbusinesscoach #businessstrategist 
I am a massive fan of planning. Success is down to having a big, bold, beautiful dream and then creating the tangible action steps to make it happen and scheduling them in. But, you know, life... There are times that dreams can seem so far over the horizon. I want you to know that you will get there. Adjust course, re-evaluate and stay committed. Life has in store for you more wonderment than we can ever imagine. 
I was interviewed for a podcast today by the beautiful Hayley Osbourne who is a fabulous marketing expert, and also going to be a mama next month. Naturally we chatted about what business is like after babies. I had my business for 4 years before I had my babies and if someone tells you that you can’t do both, stick your you give at at them. You totally can. If anything, I think I ran a much more efficient business when my boys were younger because time was much more limited. This life is yours to design and you can do and have whatever you like. My boys love business and the life less ordinary it’s been able to give them. My biggest tip: include them. Talk to them about it and make them feel a part of the journey and your success right from the beginning. They understand so much more than we often give them credit for. For all the mama’s in business, what’s your tip for women wanting to combine business & children? 
If you don’t have an online course up to share your expertise with the world, this is definitely the time to start! I use @kajabi for my whole website and course providing and I didn’t even know it was possible to be this in love with software 🤣 At the moment they have a FREE 45 DAY TRIAL and access to an awesome course “Idea to income” to help get you started. Link is in my bio. It’s only open for a few more days so jump on it. What course are you going to create? #kajabihero #coursecreationcoach #womeninbusiness #7figurebusiness #empirebuilder #businesswomen #herempirebuilder #australianbusiness #mumsinbusiness #womeninbiz 
Every month inside my Mastermind for Her Empire Builder, we double down on growth in a particular area of our online education business. This month is all about affiliate marketing and we were lucky enough to have guest expert @mark_dt today. Mark has worked with his superstar wife @denisedt to build their program Money Bootcamp to millions of dollars in revenue. So much wisdom and such an inspiration! #kajabiheroes #herempirebuilder #empirebuilders #empirebuilding #affiliatemarketing #moneymindset 
Your job as a course creator is to take what others find complex and to communicate it in a way that makes it simple for others to get their desired result. Using complicated jargon and super sophisticated language doesn't make you smart, the smarts lie in being able to make it simple and help others replicate your success. This week, keep it simple. Make it easy and spread the love. #keepitsimple #richardbranson #goodquotes #kajabihero #coursecreationcoach #womeninbusiness #7figurebusiness #empirebuilder #businesswomen #herempirebuilder #australianbusiness #mumsinbusiness #womeninbiz 
T h i r t y S e v e n 🥳🥳 I was talking to Mat about how I was feeling on this birthday and the word was “grounded”. Not only because we can’t travel, but I’ve never felt such calm clarity in life. I’ve always been a hustler and running a million miles in often a million different directions. While I remain and hopefully always will be, as ambitious as fuck, I feel very grounded about it. I have nothing left to prove to anyone or myself. I’m happy. I live a fabulous life with a great marriage, beautiful kids, awesome friends and I get to do work that is so fulfilling and makes such a positive impact on the world. I will continue to rise in business and bring all of the women that I get the pleasure to work with with me. There’s so much cool stuff in the world and joy to experience in this one precious life. I’m grateful to have lived another year and will not waste any one of them. Thirty seven, I have a sneaky suspicion that you’re going to be the best one yet 🥳💙🥂 📷 by my son Kai #birthday #itsmybirthday #internationaldayofme #birthdaymusings #thisis37 #kajabihero 
Every month in my mastermind program, Her Empire Builder, we double down on a focus for massive business growth. This month is all about affiliates. Having an affiliate program for your online courses and memberships is a fabulous way to grow your business exponentially. It taps into customer bases that are otherwise hard to find by having an affiliate partner who has your target market but is non-competitive to your business. It's some of the best marketing dollars you'll ever spend. If you haven't set up your affiliate program and aren't also offering others complimentary products and services to your customer base and receiving affiliate income, the time to start is now. #affiliateincome #onlinecoursecreation #kajabihero #herempirebuilder #empirebuilder 
This time last year we were in thick of bushfires in Australia. Yesterday we had so much rain that parts of our coast went into flood. In between we've had a pandemic that's end is not yet in sight. I say this to remind you (and me) that the only constant in life is change. While I greatly miss travel and the respite, friendships and connections that brings me, I am so grateful that I get to work from home. Working from home means I have both work and a home. What we've learnt to adapt to over the past year has taught so much and I've seen so many people, including myself, not fully recharge from the Christmas break. What the world is going through is heavy to process. But you can do amazing things. You work online which means you can work from wherever you are and impact people positively across the world. This too shall pass. Focus on the joy you can bring to the world and what the world needs from you this year. The future is bright and I can't wait to hug you at a live event when we get there.
