Ever felt like your writing is not bringing you the results you deserve?
Everywhere you look, someone’s hawking a writing formula or playbook to “guarantee” you a bazillion followers, more leads than you can eat, and enough money to buy a small castle.
Yet that castle has not materialised.
Which is frustrating because YOU’RE DOING EVERYTHING RIGHT!
You’re following the formulas, copying the structures, making your posts easy to read…
and so is everyone else.
Nobody can see you and it’s exhausting.
All the more so because your writing doesn’t feel like YOU.
How can it?
Those formulas, playbooks, and structures work for others, but those people are not you.
Your business is different.
Your goals are different.
YOU are different.
The whole thing feels fake. Icky. And unprofitable.
If your words aren't making money or creating the change you want, they’re not working for you — and that’s not good enough.
At this point, you have two options:
1) Do it all again and hope things are different tomorrow…
Or
b) Start writing like you mean it.
Not by:
☠️ Buying another shiny template that promises riches
☠️ Getting ChatGPT to write posts and articles for you
☠️ Modelling the latest guru tactics
But by:
🌟 Learning to use your voice, loud and proud
🌟 Becoming comfortable with imperfect writing
🌟 Focusing on the people you’re writing to and for
🌟 Being clear about what you do, what you care about, and why
🌟 Creating a sustainable writing practice that’ll give you a body of work to be proud of
Marc worked with me to do just that, and said:
“I’ve had therapists that got me to open up less than she did. Vicky helped me open up publicly about areas of my life that I’d previously never considered talking about.”
I’ve helped 58 people (and counting) just like you to write and publish their own incredible books. I’ve written five books of my own, and ghostwritten 12 more.
And I’ve helped dozens of people rediscover their writing voice and start using it — despite their fears, doubts, inner critics, and lack of time.
Under my guidance, you’ll no longer be stuck.
You’ll understand the value of your story, your experiences, and your point of view — and be ready to share it.
If you’re ready to trade your doubts for a strong, confident writing voice that works hard for you and your business, let’s talk.
I can help.

Today, we're diving into a topic that's as important as it is complex: the role of other people's opinions in our business decisions.
Whether it's feedback from customers, advice from mentors, or insights from peers, seeking outside perspectives can be invaluable. But how do we balance the need for external input with our own intuition and experience?
Let's explore some key questions together:
- When is it essential to consider other people's opinions in your business decisions?
- How do you differentiate between constructive feedback and unhelpful criticism?
- What strategies can you use to avoid becoming too reliant on others' opinions?
- How do you maintain your own confidence and decision-making authority while incorporating feedback?
I'm excited to hear your thoughts and experiences on this topic. Let's get the conversation started!

In any business, especially in the small business world, the relationships you nurture can be the difference between just getting by and truly flourishing. And while customer relationships often steal the spotlight, there's another kind of partnership that's equally vital—your supplier relationships.
Why are these relationships so crucial, you might ask? Well, strong supplier ties can lead to better pricing, higher quality goods, reliable inventory, and even exclusive deals that you won't find anywhere else. But like any good relationship, the ones with your suppliers are built on a foundation of trust, communication, and mutual benefit.

In today's episode, we delve into a profoundly introspective question: "If you could do it all over again, what would you change?" This isn't just a query about regrets or missed opportunities. It's an invitation to reflect on our choices, learn from our paths, and envision how different decisions could have led to alternative outcomes.
We'll be joined by a diverse group of small business owners, each bringing their unique perspectives shaped by their successes, challenges, and the roads less travelled. They'll share their stories, the pivotal moments in their businesses, and the insights they've gained looking back.
This episode is more than just a journey into the 'what ifs.' It's about understanding the impact of our decisions, embracing the lessons from our past, and applying this newfound knowledge to our future choices.

In today's episode, we're exploring a question that resonates deeply with all of us, particularly as we reflect on the past year: "What’s the number one thing you are proud of achieving this year?"
This isn't just about celebrating big wins or monumental achievements. It's about recognising the steps we've taken, the growth we've experienced, and the challenges we've overcome. Whether it’s mastering a new skill, achieving a long-sought-after goal, or even navigating unprecedented challenges with resilience and grace, every achievement is a testament to our dedication, hard work, and the courage to pursue our aspirations.
Our members come from diverse backgrounds, but they all share one thing in common: they've each accomplished something this year that has significantly impacted their personal or professional lives. We'll hear their stories, the obstacles they faced, and the lessons they learned along the way.
So, whether you’re looking for motivation, inspiration, or just a moment to reflect on your own achievements, this episode promises to bring you a blend of heartfelt stories and practical insights.
Join us as we delve into these inspiring stories and perhaps, in the process, find a renewed appreciation for our own accomplishments, no matter how big or small they may seem.

As the year edges swiftly towards its close, it’s easy to succumb to the notion that time has slipped through our fingers, causing us to potentially miss out on achieving all of our goals.
However, the final stretch of the year presents not just a deadline but an opportunity. The importance of pushing through to meet that one remaining goal on your list cannot be overstated—it's a testament to your dedication and resilience.
Meeting your end-of-year objectives serves as a crucial momentum builder for the year ahead, turning what could be a period of winding down into a victory lap of accomplishment. So, rally your resources, refocus your efforts, and let's make these remaining days count. Every goal achieved is a step forward, and the end of the year might just be the beginning of your next big success.

We often talk about the things we should be doing more of — but what about the things we should be doing less?
Sometimes, the secret to productivity and success isn't about adding more to our plates, but rather knowing what to take off. From time-consuming tasks that offer little value, to energy-draining habits that quietly sabotage our goals, we're going to explore how identifying and eliminating just one detrimental habit can transform the way you work and lead.
So, get ready to challenge your status quo, reevaluate your day-to-day choices, and maybe, just maybe, find that key to unlocking a more efficient and impactful way of working.

🌟 Do you struggle with differentiating between urgent and non-urgent communication? Here's a quick tip: Plan your communication wisely! ⏰✉️
Take a moment to define what's urgent for you and what's urgent for others. Set clear boundaries and inform your clients about your preferred communication methods. For instance, if it's urgent, give me a call! 📞 If it's a text on WhatsApp, I'll get back to you ASAP. 📲📝 Voice notes may take a bit longer, but I'll respond by the end of the day. If it's detailed info with a specific deadline, shoot me an email! 📧⏳
Remember, technology is your ally! Utilize it to streamline your communication and avoid wasting time on non-urgent information. ⌛️⚡️ So, let's set those boundaries, folks! Clearly distinguish what's urgent and what's not. 🛑⚠️

Just wrapped up another amazing unplugged session on the weekly chat with Kenny! 🎙️ This time, we delved deep into the topic of boundaries—yes, you guessed it, boundaries! 🚧 We explored the importance of knowing when to let people into your space and when to keep them out. It's all about defining what you truly want and who you want to be. 🌟
Don't let others dictate your path or settle for what doesn't resonate with you. Life is too short to live by someone else's terms. So, set your boundaries, my friends, and stick to them! 🙅♂️🔒

This episode's question is a little bit different...we have been talking about marketing, but what does it all lead to? Sales!
So the question - what are your sales goals?
We are inclined to just take what comes with sales and hope to cover enough to cover overheads but we don't focus on how much we want to make; we just focus on what we need to make.
If you set a goal, you'll get close to it!

This morning's question sent a few people down various chains of thought.
So, stop, take a Birds Eye view of your business, and identify where you need to be paying your attention. You need to balance your attention through all the different aspects of your business, because, where your attention goes so the money flows!
When you worry about sales, they will not happen, but if you are present in your sales they will happen.
If you stress yourself out about your Overheads and expenses, they will just get worse, whereas if you are present in the Overheads and expenses, you will see how to improve them.

The best way to introduce our guest on this Special Edition is in her own words:
"Howzit! I’m Megan: the secret weapon of digital marketers, web developers, and business owners around the world.
I’ve written stuff for everyone from a multi-national ed-tech company and a division of the Dubai government (true story) to the dude down the road with the small plumbing business.
You might be thinking "Geez... With a client base that diverse, does this chick actually specialise in anything?". Well, yes. Yes, I do.
Although I write digital copy including social posts, Google ads, blogs, and mailers, my true power lies in deep-knowledge pieces that require interviewing subject experts and distilling their brilliance into easy-to-understand, consumable content. And right now, I'm getting my kicks doing just that in the AI sector.
I also have a knack for writing engaging website and app copy. And thanks to my understanding of good UX and UI, I can work with your favourite developer to make sure the writing on your site matches the ease and flow of the design.
So, if you’re looking for someone to create content that effectively communicates your message with simple, user-friendly writing, give me a shout and let's get to work."

Success will always be different for each of us. Knowing what you need to achieve for YOU, is already success.
It is not what everyone else expects YOU to be doing or what others are doing.
Success is made up of small milestones and achievements that YOU need to get where it looks for YOU.
We are taught from a young age, that you have to be successful, you have to study this, work in that field, be that person. Whereas YOU, do what YOU need to do! To be successful at YOU.
So be YOU and be successful at YOU!

It suddenly make sense, why the American celebrate #thanksgiving in November.
Some really special shares in this morning recording.
So what are you grateful for in your business?

I could see the defensive, guilty, anxious looks popping up the faces in the room, and I just smiled again. This was not something that they expected, but rather something that they needed.
Being balanced for you & recognising what you need, is what is really important and then putting that in place and be disciplined to stick to it.
People will say you must work 8-5 and then switch off, that’s hard and in today's world, extremely difficult and impractical, let’s be honest.
An interesting word popped up, “Mobile Balance”
What the heck is “mobile Balance”, you will have to listen to the podcast...

Compartmentalising vs Boxing. Managing your headspace in your business.
Confused?
Hell yes most likely!
So were most of the business owners this morning!
Aren’t they the same thing?
What are the differences?
What are Smart Boxes?
Those were the immediate responses that came up.
If you think about it, as a business owner, you have a lot on your plate.
Team, Finance, marketing, people, customers, deals, invoices, etc, etc.
You can’t be dealing with them all at the same time, as that is where mistakes will happen.
If you look at your desk, how many piles are on it, or is it clear.
When you have piles on your desk, they distract you, you keep thinking, mmm, I need to do that still, etc
When it’s clear, you become more creative, start thinking and planning.
Think of it this way, Compartmentalising is taking the pile and sorting it into categories and boxing is saying I’m done that I can file it away until I need it again.
One simple philosophy defines the Hayley Joy collections...REAL shapes and sizes, for REAL women, in the REAL world.
My life’s passion has been to make a difference in the lives of the forgotten women. As a woman of size myself, I have lived the humiliation of shopping for fashion that fits, or actually, that doesn’t.
They say that your own pain, is your customers biggest gain, and knowing what I had encountered, in my quest to find a brand that honoured me as a woman and not as a size, has enabled me to design fashion that REALLY fits.
I knew that upsizing regular sizes was the norm and the wrong norm. Together with my production team, we took me and measured me in 5cm increments, from my neck down. I then plotted those measurements and so the Hayley Joy, genuine Plus size block, was created. From there we graded up to a genuine 7XL and down to a Size inclusive S.
We design and manufacture, all our own collections, in our factory in Johannesburg, South Africa.
I discovered a passion for iPhone photography and iPhone design apps, which has led me to be designing exclusive fabric collections for the Hayley Joy brand. It has been a very inspiring journey and being able to design prints and colours, that Plus size women have never had access to, (because remember, they’re forgotten), is a defining moment in my career.
I work with a wonderful team of women and one man 😉 who inspire me to keep pushing the boundaries of size inclusive fashion, because they get my vision of producing beautifully made fashion, that enables women of all shapes and sizes, to feel honoured.
We are committed to honouring shape, because we don’t really do size at Hayley Joy.
I don’t consider going to Hayley Joy as a job, I view it as my playground, because I am inspired daily, by what is possible, when you’re committed to changing lives.
It’s been a 35 year journey and as we set out to scale the business, I feel like I’m just starting.
❤️
What one habit do you need to start and one habit you need to stop in your business?
Yes, yes, yes, easier said than done
We get great ideas that last a couple of days and then we fall back to the norm.
That is because we do not replace one habit with a new one.
Stop looking at habits as good or bad, but rather old and new.
It’s the same when you buy something new and better than the one you have, you then get rid of the old one to make space for the new one.
One of the challenges we face when we wants to create a new habit is we add a new habit instead of first removing one.
Lets try, see how it has worked out in 3 weeks and replace an old habit with a new one.
What's the benefit of having an "Arrow Head Strategy" in your Business/Marketing Plan?
You all have your niche. The niche is what you put out the world, it is what you're aiming at. Arrow head - is sharp & the specificity will give your more chance to bring in other businesses.
How do you catch yourself out, doing what you know you shouldn't do, as the business owner?
When you started your business, what solution where you offering and are you actually offering that?
How are you measuring Success?
This was this week's question and yes, the first thought will always be bank account!
But that was not the question, it’s the various levels and steps that you take.
Sometimes you have to be selfish and honest with yourself.
There is no harm in praising yourself.
Take the time out to notice what you do well.
Yes we went unplugged again this morning.
This is where you get to ask me the questions, regarding your business.
It was amazing, each persons question, was relevant to most members this morning.
What is starting to become great is that, questions are being answer by members and not just me. So why not join us?

Kenny Unplugged - he usually asks all the questions. In this episode, the members could ask Kenny anything. Take a listen - some great questions and even better advice!
Taking the time to recognize your achievements allows you the chance to pinpoint exactly what worked so that you can repeat it in the future. Taking pride in your accomplishments by celebrating them—even the small ones—can also boost your self-confidence and motivate you to achieve more. This week we asked the members to tell us what they were most proud of and also what they wanted to achieve for the rest of the year!
We all have that one thing that we know could be doing better when we sell our product or service! What is it and why haven’t you addressed it?
The old energy of hustling and pushing for your success (which worked well in the past), is no longer giving you the same results
As a driven and strong leader, who has always created your own success, I’m sure this is making you feel frustrated and maybe even a bit angry that all the areas of your life aren’t playing ball!
If you’re looking for a way to move to your next level of success and managing / navigating ALL areas of your business and life with more ease and control – chances are your feminine receiving energy has been out of balance
In a world that values a masculine pushing, making it happen and just do it mindset, even if it doesn’t feel good, it can feel impossible to open up to your gifts and abilities further while receiving the abundance and success that you KNOW you can achieve
It’s time to start leading yourself to lead your world more effectively - aligned with your inner power and purpose

Successful sales people, how do you think they get it right? This episode had some interesting insights as well as some tips.
What sales funnels do you use, which works best for you and why? In this episode, there were a lot of revelations of members who have a sales funnel but just don't call it that! We also got some great ideas of programmes and systems that are currently in use and have been tried and tested.
What management systems do you have in place? Whether it's simple or fancy software, you need a system!
What change/s have you implemented in your business, in the last couple of weeks?
We have chatted a lot in the last two weeks about warning signs and things that need to change in the members' businesses and their lives. Question is, have they done anything about it yet?
We often ignore stuff, hoping it will just go away. But it doesn't. We need to stop, acknowledge them and do something about it. Ask for help!
In this episode we chatted about entrepreneur syndrome, juggling, pitfalls and burnout.
In this special edition, Kenny chats to Michelle Macfarlane of Dragon Consulting & Hashtag Training.
Michelle has spent the course of her career helping business owners get their brands in front of their target audience. Drawing from almost 3 decades of experience in the financial and retail sectors, Michelle’s ability to think laterally shines when creating customised marketing plans.

What is that awesome "tip of the arrow" offer that get's the new customers and clients? Do you have one? Are you happy with it?
What lies do you tell yourself about your business?
Are you kidding yourself, playing ostrich or just thinking things that really aren't true?
Why would a client hire you or buy from you? Digging deep to find what sets you apart from the competition!
What assumptions do you have about your industry & are they valid?
Our members share their frustrations, smiles and learnings about their industries.
What are you super proud of, that you do in your Business? We often look at what we need to improve or what we got wrong - this week, we pause to give ourselves credit for the progress we have made and the goals we have reached!
What does your business need, that you are too scared to try or add ? Change is always scary & investing in something new even scarier but what if it worked?!
Consistency doing the right thing is what drives success. What are you not doing consistently that may just change your results?
This week’s weekly chat was quite an interesting topic. At the beginning of the chat there was a little bit of hesitation and uncertainty when people will suddenly think:
“Do I need to go and spend money?”, or “What do I need to go and spend money on now?”
There was a little bit of “Well how do I do this?”, “How do I do that?”, “What are we talking about when we refer to resources?”, “What are we talking about when we talk about systems?” and “Do I have to go spend money on a system?”
If you had to start your business all over again, from today, what would you do differently and why?
Part 2 of our discussion around what makes us truly unique and why people should buy from us rather than our competitors.
What is the biggest goal that you achieved in 2021? If you didn't make it, what did you learn and what is your commitment for 2022?
Celebrating 2021 - despite the doubt and uncertainty at the beginning of the year, we have achieved!
Pushing the boundaries to make you think about what really makes you truly unique and stand out from the competition?
Following last weeks session around closing sales, this week I thought lets extend this a bit further, and asked with does a client actually become a client?
So some of the usual expected answer, like when they come back the second time.
But then I threw the spanner in the works and started to discuss A, B , C and D customers.
So take a listen...
What's your favourite way of closing a sale? What works, what doesn't and what tips have you got for small business owners out there?
What was your best marketing campaign, why and what were the results?
This week on the “Weekly chat with Kenny”, we continued the flow that we have been discussing over the last few weeks. Which led to this weeks question, What was your best marketing campaign, why and what were the results?
Some really interesting examples given with some remarkable results. Those that didn’t have remarkable results, got inspired by the others that did have.
To sum it all up, here are a few key words:
Start conversations
Consistency
Networking
Relationship building
Referrals
Collaboration
Follow up
Target specific
As an extra bonus this morning I gave everyone on the recording a free gift, Archer Inspirations marketing planner.
Over the past few weeks we have chatted about pricing and profit. These are just 2 numbers. Do you know the key numbers in your business?
Are you making the profits in your Business that you should be making? Gross Profit, Net Profit, costings...are you even paying yourself?
This week we discuss whether we had set goals for the week and whether we actually achieved them.
What's the one move that you're just too scared to may just be the one that is a game changer for your business.
What's that one time waster that you need to eliminate from your business today and how are you going to do it?
As solopreneurs and business owners, we are so focused on survival and doing everything we have to do, to build our businesses. It is important to take that time and ask what have I done for me?
That move you're too scared to make might just be the one. What is that move that you've been dying to make but you're just too scared to do it?
Most of us have that thing where we go ; we will do it one day. Our commitment in Episode 15 just shifted "one day to day one"!
"Sometimes I suck at what I do but that's OK because I learned from it."
We all have things that we are not good at but when we admit it and do something it, we can only get better!
What are you really proud of that you have managed to achieve this week & why are you proud of it?
What's the one thing from your past that scared you but made you stronger and better today?
What action will you take in your business that you will deliver at the end of this month? It's all about goals and holding ourselves and each other accountable.
What's the biggest learning curve you have experienced in your business so far & what did it change for you?
What are the top 3 things you do in your business every day for it to run successfully. You might not be doing them...but what should they be?
If you were told you could keep only 1 business tool, what would it be & why? Whether it's for an example, a computer, cellphone or a CRM system - something that makes you money in your business - but you can choose only 1!
Would you do business with something from someone that you don’t Trust? Brand Rapport. Why it is so import to build your brand before you sell?
What's the one thing that you need to be doing in your business that ends up at the bottom of your To Do List? The one thing you don't get to or just don't want to get down to doing...
There is no such thing as competition; there is only someone who is more relevant than you. We often compare ourselves to other people and then we try copying what they're doing, and in that copying, we are not making ourselves more relevant.
We don't always want to do what we need to do. We are more than happy to fall back into what we were trained to do. And when I am talking about what we were trained to do, I am talking almost back to our childhood because we start getting trained from the day we are born. When times are tough we revert to those learned behaviours but that stops us from moving forward to growth.
What unfair advantage do you have, think about Skills, experience, talent, knowledge, character and network?
We always focus on one thing at a time, and because we focus on that one thing, that is what we are successful at. Running your business and balancing your life means you have to focus on everything at the same time!
All of us, whether we sell a product or a service, are solving a problem that somebody has and that's why they will be buying from you. So is there money in the problem that you solve?
How do get peoples' attention? By keeping it simple. How do you keep peoples' attention? By not giving too much information! It's really important to get the right message across.
The topic for this week: Where do you pull the energy from for you & your business? When things are really tough and you feel like everything is falling in on you, where do you stop and find that energy?
This week we give feedback and recognition for the impact that one year of the Weekly Chat has had on us as individuals and business owners.
This week I asked "What has changed for you during lockdown and because of that change it has actually become a win for you?"
Focusing on the positives, take a listen to the growth we have seen and the successes we have celebrated during lockdown.
This is inspiration at its finest!
