“Marketing is always changing: situation to situation, moment to moment, second to second. But this book is about what doesn’t change. It’s about the fundamentals of marketing.

You are marketing your business through your operations, more than any other marketing effort ever could.
The fundamentals of marketing
Marketing principles are the concepts that drive your approach to marketing. These help you to communicate with your target audience, understand their needs and preferences, and develop effective strategies for selling your products and services.

Let’s get your grit on as a business owner. You may think twice before you look at this topic – we can assure you, your podcast hosts at The No BS Business Show did too – but it’s an important one to define and outline.
Get your grit on
As a business owner, sometimes it feels like you only have it on your side. Your tenacity and determination are the two driving forces that keep your momentum on the move. But, what happens when the grit gurus hit? The gurus are wrong.
The grit gurus are wrongYou know what we’re talking about. The gurus tell you to work harder, hustle faster, and devote all 24 hours of your day towards your business. Spoiler alert: that’s not grit, although they may tell you otherwise. In this episode, Philipa Farley and Cath Jenkin explore the concept of grit: What it is, and – more importantly – what it is not. Moreover, they outline the nuances attached to it, and how this differs to the conventional understandings thereof.
Redefining grit as a business owner
Grit, in the context of a business owner, refers to the perseverance and determination to achieve long-term goals despite facing challenges and obstacles along the way. It encompasses your ability to maintain motivation and focus, and to work through difficult situations with resilience and tenacity. Grit, however, requires support. And that’s where your gurus haven’t quite considered the nuances of it.

What is your business’ company culture all about? Company culture is a misnomer. You find culture in yoghurt, not in cubicles. In this episode, Philipa and Cath discuss the hard truths of company culture.
What is company culture?
Company culture reflects how you set up your business. Accordingly, it includes what your business wants to achieve and how your business wants to do things. It is the rules for how people should act and treat each other. Most importantly, it defines how your business should treat customers.
Is company culture important?
The culture of your business can have a big effect on how happy and successful your employees are. If your company culture is positive, it can help your business attract and retain good teams and talent. If, however, it is negative or toxic, it can cause people to leave and hurt the business.
What are the hard truths about your company culture?
In this episode, your podcast hosts outline some hard truths about your culture. Despite what you may be led to believe, culture cannot be dictated or imposed by management. It is, however, created and shaped by the actions and behaviours of all employees within the organisation. Your business’ culture is always evolving and changing, whether intentionally or not. A strong company culture does not guarantee success, however, a negative culture can hinder success and lead to significant problems. Maintaining a positive culture certainly requires ongoing effort and commitment from leadership and everyone involved in your business.

What happens if my business fails? Welcome, business owner, to the thought that keeps every business owner up at night. You are not alone. Whether it’s at the beginning, the middle, or when you’re thinking of a new adventure, we all contemplate business failure.
What to do when business failure hits you
Every business owner faces this moment at some point. In this episode, Phillipa and Cath discuss: What’s your backup plan? Is your business really failing? Is it a project gone wrong? Your systems gone awry? One bad day? What should you be assessing when you’re concerned that your business is battling to keep going? Who should you ask? Who should you trust? How soon should you call it/see the signs of it?
Make a business backup plan
What happens if my business fails? You’ll move to your business backup plan. Your podcast hosts help you build a business backup plan. Has your business failed as a whole, or is it just part of it? That’s where your hosts remind you to take a step back: It can be tempting to keep working harder in an attempt to save your business, but it’s important to take a step back and assess the situation. Take some time to reflect on what has happened, overall, and consider whether there are any factors that you can change or improve upon.
What caused your business failure?
Figuring out the causes of your business failure may reveal far more than you realise. Fully assessing the causes, the symptoms, and the situation may reveal far more insightful information than you may realise. If your business is struggling or has failed, it can be a difficult and stressful time. Your podcast hosts help you plan and activate steps you can take to move forward. Moreover, this is when you must remember that it’s okay to feel overwhelmed or discouraged as a business owner.

Business success: let’s talk it through. How do you showcase your business success? Before you flip to your social media profiles in an attempt to do so, stop. Indeed, it may be all hustle, grind and soft life success portrayed with filters online, but is it real? No. Not even close.
What does business success look like?
If you flip through their profiles, it seems like successful business owners are always on holiday. In this episode, Philipa and Cath lift the lid on the myth of success. Your hosts talk you through the Instagram living hoax. Accordingly they also bring home a reminder to business owners: Success is not what you’ll see on an Instagram profile. You might, however, see evidence of credit card debt.

What happens to your business if Facebook dies? How will you market your business without Meta?
There’s much to be said around the convenience and effect of using social media platforms to sell your products and services. The key problem lies, however, in investing so much in them only to have to it taken away from you one day. What happens if you lose access to your accounts? How will you operate your business then?
Don’t build on rented land
The solution lies in the adage: Don’t build on rented land. Although the world of social media makes it seem easy to market your business, what happens when the hype is over? What happens if your Facebook Page gets hacked? Your marketing strategy certainly cannot depend on one solution. What happens if you lose access to your Instagram account? In this episode, Philipa and Cath talk about how you should use social media, the right way, to market your business.
Your intellectual property
It’s your business, so it’s your intellectual property. How can you retain your locus of control over your intellectual property?

By owning your website and the content therein, you can retain your locus of control over your intellectual property and, therefore, your business. What happens if Facebook dies, then? The answer is easy: your business will be safe.
Your marketing strategy
Consider your marketing strategy as the implementation arm of your business, and not the single source of sales. Using your website as the ultimate destination for your intended target audience means you can manage and monitor the success of your social media performance, without inhibiting your business growth. No matter what happens to the platforms, your business remains safe. In summary, your marketing strategy should not be Facebook. It should, however, revolve around using whichever platforms prove most effective for your business, and directing your customers towards making a sale or making contact with you, via your website or other platform that’s owned by you. You own your marketing strategy, and you own your data. What happens if Facebook dies? Your business will be fine.

The first thing you should do when you start a business? Hire an accountant. After that, what’s the second thing? In this episode of the No BS Business Show, your hosts unravel two approaches to business accounting. The No BS Business Show helps you define your needs as a business owner, when it comes to the facts and figures of your business.

Two different approaches to business accounting
You don’t need to be a freak in the sheets to be a successful business owner. In this episode, your hosts present two different approaches to your accounting needs as a business owner. Philipa has an all-hands-on approach to her accounting, while Cath leans on the strengths of her accountant moreso. Both approaches can work for you as a business owner, but it all boils down to: What questions should a business owner ask their accountant?
Business accounting for prosAre you a freak in the sheets like Philipa? If you are, then you’ll have no issue with tangling through the figures of your business. That, however, doesn’t mean it’s met all your accounting needs. In this episode, Philipa and Cath outline the different ways an effective accountant can serve your business. And, your hosts help you define what type of accountant is best for your business.
Business accounting for idiots
Comparatively, are you a business accounting idiot like Cath? If you are, then it’s absolutely okay. It’s called delegation to the experts. And, as Cath outlines, there are great benefits attached to leaning on the experts to make your money matter. In this episode, Cath and Philipa help you figure out how to choose the right accountant for your business.
Compliance and expertiseYou don’t just want an accountant for your business who knows how to work the books. They need to be in touch with compliance, to the minute. They need qualifications, expertise, and engagement. You should be able to ask your accountant the right questions.

This episode of The No BS Business Show is one for the good days, and the bad days too. Despite what you may have been taught to believe, your special skills are a keen differentiating factor for your business.

Your extra level of clever
Your extra level of clever is your differentiating factor in business.
