• Happy Monday folks! And a very happy family day to you all :-)⠀ ⠀ For my non-BC followers, that's one of the public holidays we celebrate here. It's a day all about family and, for those of us without kids, an extra day off work ;-)⠀ ⠀ As much as I'd love to spend the day right here, in bed, I am going to drag my butt up and out and spend some time with the husband. I suppose I really should, huh?⠀ ⠀ It takes a lot for me to make the effort to actually take some time off. When you're running your own business, it can actually be easier to just get your head down and work all the hours, especially in the beginning. If you run your own business, I'm sure you know exactly what I'm talking about.⠀ ⠀ But I also realise the importance of actually TAKING TIME OFF. Even though it might seem like the wrong thing to do, actually purposely taking time away from your business can be exactly what you need to refresh you and get you motivated to get stuck back into it again.⠀ ⠀ When I look back over my calendar and realise I've basically worked for the last 14 days straight, it actually makes a lot of sense how a break can inspire productivity.⠀ ⠀ So, I get most of you are probably cracking on today as it's Monday and that's the thing to do. But I'd love you to take a moment to look in your diaries and schedule in a whole day off sometime in the next couple of weeks. No excuses!⠀ ⠀ Take the day... get some rest... and come back fighting fit and refreshed the next day. Trust me, it'll be awesome.⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #smallbusinessowners #digitalnomadlife #freelancewriter #freelancing #freelancelifestyle #creativepreneurs #supportwomeninbusiness #creativeminds #writerlifestyle #nomads #solotraveling #digitalnomadgirls #digitalnomadlifestyle #remotework #workfromanywhere #workandtravel #timefreedom #escapethe9to5 #introvertsinbusiness #introvertmarketing #heartoverhustle #creativelifehappylife #girlbossmoment #multipassionate #hustleandheart #soulpreneur #designalifeyoulove #freelancingfemales #workgoals #dreambigworkhard

  • I'm so passionate about small businesses having great quality images for your business.⠀ ⠀ It strikes me, though, that many small business owners still aren't entirely sure about the world of branding photography, and are worried that, by booking a photographer, they're going to end up with stuffy, corporate-style headshots and photographs that don't really show the personality of their business.⠀ ⠀ So, I figured it would be a good idea to write a blog post series all about branding photography!⠀ ⠀ Be confused no more!

  • January quickly became the month of talking online for me!⠀ ⠀ And with today being World Radio Day, it seems like the perfect time to recap what's been going on in case you missed it last month...⠀ ⠀ So, first off, the big news! January 31st saw the launch of my new podcast, jointly hosted with the lovely @catalystcarla called @creativerebootco ! Thank you so much to everyone who has listened to the first episode so far and messaged with your comments, as well as those of you who have very kindly rated us with 5 stars! The support has been wonderful and so many people have been in touch, so thank you, thank you, thank you! If you haven't listened to it yet, do check it out on your favourite podcast app. Or find the episode along with the show notes on our website (link in bio). ⠀ ⠀ Also, last month, I did my first ever full live over on Facebook! It was actually a whole lot of fun and I really enjoyed myself, so I'm already thinking about planning another one soon. Again, if you didn't catch it, you can still watch it on replay. The link to the Live is in my bio as well!⠀ ⠀ I've definitely caught the bug for chatting about the stuff I love so if you'd like me to talk on your podcast then do give me a shout. I can't promise perfection but I do love to chat and, if we meet face to face, I promise to bring snacks! ;-)⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #smallbusinessowners #digitalnomadlife #freelancewriter #freelancing #freelancelifestyle #creativepreneurs #supportwomeninbusiness #creativeminds #writerlifestyle #nomads #solotraveling #digitalnomadgirls #digitalnomadlifestyle #remotework #workfromanywhere #workandtravel #timefreedom #escapethe9to5 #introvertsinbusiness #introvertmarketing #heartoverhustle #creativelifehappylife #girlbossmoment #multipassionate #hustleandheart #soulpreneur #designalifeyoulove #freelancingfemales #workgoals #dreambigworkhard

  • How many times do you find yourself repeating the same information over and over in your emails?⠀ ⠀ You won't be the first small business owner out there that answers 'Ugh, too many times!' Believe me, it's a common problem.⠀ ⠀ A freelancer's time is incredibly precious. There's never enough of it and always a list as long as your arm of things that need to be done.⠀ ⠀ So, figuring out where to trim your time and simplify your workflow is a huge part of being a business owner. And one of those areas you really should think about simplifying is how long you spend in your inbox responding to emails!⠀ ⠀ It took me a while to figure out I needed to set up template emails to help my business flow better. But once I had figured it out and took a bit of time getting those emails set up, suddenly I found myself saving masses of time!⠀ ⠀ An email enquiry? No problem, I have the perfect response for that. Need to chase up someone for payment? Not a problem. Got an email for that too.⠀ ⠀ The beauty of template emails is that they take all the hard work of figuring out what to say away. And if you build your own, you can make them sound like you! I always like to leave some space for a few personalised tweaks as well, so your recipients really feel like you've taken the time to write a custom email for them.⠀ ⠀ So, have I piqued your interest?
