A podcast episode with a twist today, not my usual tip, tool or strategy for business success.
At the beginning of this year I made the decision to stop hiding what I am truly passionate about, and start sharing from the heart with what I feel inspired to on that day.
So here it is, an episode from my heart, and something I have been guided to share with you.
Ask for a Sign...
What do I mean by that? Well, when I decided to relaunch my business, this time more aligned to my passion and purpose I asked for a sign from the Universe that I was on the right track and this is what I am meant to be doing.
and.... guess what happened next...
Listen in to find out what the sign was and how the Universe showed up for me.

I recently shared my reflections of my one year anniversary in moving to Canada.
The post received such positive feedback, with two people even personally reaching out on private message to tell me how impactful my honest reflections had resonated with them.
As a result I have decided to record a podcast episode on this exact topic. I am going to dive even further into my musings on the past year, and share with you the highs and the lows of following your dreams and how making one decision can truly change the trajectory of your life.
If you have ever thought of moving to another country or even to another part of your country, then listen in as a share the highs the lows and my lessons learnt.

On today’s podcast episode we are deep diving into Profit Lever number 6, the Gross Profit Margin!
The Gross profit margin is a key metric for measuring a business's profitability, representing the percentage of revenue that remains after subtracting the cost of goods sold.
Here are some effective strategies to increase a business's gross profit margin:
1. Increase Prices:
One of the most straightforward ways to increase gross profit margin is to increase prices. However, this should be done carefully, taking into account market conditions and the impact on customer demand. Increasing prices too much or too quickly can lead to decreased sales and customer dissatisfaction.
2. Reduce Cost of Goods Sold:
Reducing the cost of goods sold can help increase gross profit margin. This can be achieved through various strategies, such as negotiating better prices with suppliers, sourcing materials or products from cheaper suppliers, or improving operational efficiency to reduce waste and other costs.
3. Optimize Product Mix:
Analysing the profitability of different products or services offered and optimizing the product mix can help increase gross profit margin. This may involve focusing on higher-margin products or services, discontinuing low-margin offerings, or introducing new products or services that have higher profit margins.
4. Improve Inventory Management:
Managing inventory more efficiently can help reduce costs and increase gross profit margin. This may involve implementing inventory management software, using just-in-time inventory systems, or reducing the amount of inventory held to minimize storage and holding costs.
5. Increase Sales Volume:
Increasing sales volume can help increase gross profit margin, but this should be done without sacrificing profitability. This may involve increasing marketing and advertising efforts, expanding into new markets or product lines, or offering promotions or discounts to incentivize customer purchases.
6. Implement Cost Controls:
Implementing cost controls can help minimize expenses and increase gross profit margin. This may involve implementing budgeting and forecasting processes, negotiating better payment terms with suppliers, or reducing overhead expenses such as rent or utilities.
Overall, increasing gross profit margin requires a strategic approach that balances pricing, cost reduction, inventory management, and sales volume to achieve sustainable profitability.

Today on the podcast I am sharing strategies to help you turn your customers into repeat, loyal customers, who become raving fans of your business.
This strategy, to build loyal customers, is one of the most cost effective ways to grow the profitability of your business.
Why? Well finding a new customer is costly!
However, having an existing customer reengage with your business and spend more can be very low cost compared to finding that new customer.
Also, if the existing customer loves your business and what you do, they are more than likely going to refer new customers to you.
How can you WOW your existing customers and get them to come back more often, plus send you even more customers?
The following are some examples of how to do this, what are ones you can think of or are already doing in your bsuiness:
1. Personalisation - with technology you can collect a large amount of data from your customers and use this knowledge to personalise the offers you send to them. By using their past purchase data, plus their interests you can specifically send them targeted offers to increase the likely hood of them purchasing from you again
2. Provide exceptional customer service and create loyal fans - EG Apple
3. Offer subscriptions or membership programs
4. Offer incentives for referrals

Today in the podcast we will focus on various strategies that you can implement to BOOM your profit by maximising your Customer Spend.
One of the most effective ways to increase profit is maximising how much a customer spends with you each time they engage with your business. I am sure you have heard the saying "Do you want fries with that?" McDonalds is probably the best example of how a company has trained it's employees to always be focusing on increasing the spend of each customer with one simple question.
How can your business implement a simple strategy to increase the average dollar spend per customer?
The following are some examples of ways you can focus on increasing the dollar spend per customer:
1. Upsell and Cross-sell offers - as in the McDonalds example offering additional products or services at the time of purchase is one of the most effective ways to increase a customers spend. An upsell is encouraging the customer to buy a higher end or more expensive product than the one they were initially considering, cross-sell involves suggesting related products or services that complement the one they are already buying.
2. Bundle Products or services - Telus is great at this, when I signed up for home internet, I then received a call from a sales rep and ended up purchasing TV and my mobile bill all for a discounted rate and with additional credits.
3. Loyalty Programs - incentivizes customers to spend more to get additional discounts or rewards.
4. Limited Time Offers - creating urgency can encourage customers to spend more than they might not have otherwise so that they don't miss out on the special offer
5. Personalisation - this is a very popular strategy at the moment, people want to feel special and that they are not just a number, by personalising their shopping experience and offering them products or services specifically for them they will be incentivised to spend more.
6. Add-ons and upgrades - adding this to existing products can increase a customers spend, for example for just an additional $10 per month upgrade to the premium version of Netflix

Today in the podcast we will focus on various strategies that you can implement to turn your "Prospects" in to actual "Customers" of your business.
Taking your prospects on a journey that is mapped out and leads to the final destination of them becoming a loyal customer of your business is the key for your business success.
How do you do this? I believe having a clearly mapped out sales process is key. That way anyone in your organisation can convert prospects into customers.
What goes into this sales process? Let me share my ideas with you today, and they include:
1. Understanding your target audience, what are their pain points, what problem do they want solved, how does what you offer solve this for them?
2. Create a clear Value Proposition for your products & services, and how they solve their pain points from above, that way it is a no brainer for them to engage with you.
3. To help make the buying decision easier for your customers, create social proof. Do this by using reviews, testimonials, case studies and other forms of social proof to make your prospect feel more confident in spending money on your products or services.
4. Create a sales funnel for your business that increases the chance of your prospects converting into a paying customer, and creates a visual sales flow for your business.
5. Follow up, follow up, follow up!

2023 for me started with a BANG!!!
Almost two months into the new year, and I am only just coming down to earth after what was the big explosion in my life our relocation to Vancouver, Canada.
The planning began mid last year when Dan received the opportunity for a new job in Vancouver. It took us a few weeks to accept the offer due to personal reasons, but once we did the planning began.
I love to plan and I especially love the software Airtable to plan with. I started to create our Canada Airtable Base, and put everything I felt we need to do before we were to fly out on the 11th January.
What were my three big takeaways from relocating our whole lives to a new country, a new continent on the other side of the world.
Take Away Number 1:
- Even with the best planning, things can be missed and you need to be able to be nimble and adaptive as the plan rolls out
Take Away Number 2:
- It is important to have regular team meetings to review your goals, your plan and your progress, add items to the plan and remove things not necessary. Keep the BIG vision in mind to inspire the team into action and forward momentum.
Take Away Number 3:
- It is important to be sensitive to all members of the team, understand how they work, what makes them stressed, happy, sad, productive and committed to the plan
Take Away Number 4:
- When things become tense and stressful, have way to diffuse the energy. Keep working on your mindset, exercise and breath daily.
On arriving in Vancouver our plans ended, now we are settling in, there is a long list of items we need for the home, including a car. However, with each week we are feeling more and more settled, and by being sensitive to each of the team members needs, including lots of hugs and kisses, we as a family team are making progress.

Welcome 2023 (maybe a little late, but I will tell you why)!
Wow, what a way to start the year, packing, organising & sorting to relocate with my family to Canada and now we are here, getting settled in our new home.
At the end of the year, normally I would spend time planning, setting intentions, reflecting on the year just past, reviewing what worked, what didn't work and what I want to change for the new year.
I would spend time journaling, and setting my big goals and intentions for myself & my business.
However, at the end of 2022, with everything going on with the BIG move, I had little time for this reflection and planning. My whole focus was on the move making sure we were ready to fly out on the 11th January 2023.
In saying that though, I did take time to reflect on what WORDS I wanted to take with me as my focus in the new year. What three words I will use as my guiding light, my true north.
In today's podcast episode I will be sharing with you my 2023 THREE WORDS. Why I have chosen them, what they mean to me and ask you to take time to reflect on what three words you will chose for this year.
So let's go, let's keep the momentum of 2023 going, a year I believe will be one of change for many people.

One of the biggest mindset shifts for any business owner, is to start thinking like a CEO and get off the tools!
As you grow your business it comes to a point where you can no longer do everything yourself and you will need to set up systems & hire a team to help you grow.
At this point one of the biggest challenges is actually transforming your mindset from being a "technician" on the tools all day to becoming the business "CEO".
Listen in today as I deep dive into this topic.

Are your goals destroying your dreams?
Another topic that dropped in for me this week on one of my morning walks. Lately I have been feeling a little discouraged that I am not achieving the goals I set myself.
This made me start to wonder, are my goals actually inspiring me or demotivating me?
We are taught to set BIG goals, once that scare us and inspire us to more, but what if these big goals are actually making us feel frozen like a deer in headlights and we don't end up taking any action.
Today I want to inspire you to reflect on this past year and how far you have come. To really celebrate all of your successes and progress towards your goals, even if you feel like you haven't achieved them.
When you do this you may realise that you have actually achieved more than you thought. You can also then reset your goals and make a plan that is achievable and enables you to be once again reinvigorated to take consistent action towards your goals.
I'd love to hear your thoughts, please send me an email.

What if the price actually wasn't expensive?
What if the price was actually just right for the business to not only cover all of their costs, support their employees and return to the owner a profit & income that they deserved?
Often we look at prices and think they are expensive, or over the top. We view what other businesses in our industry are charging and can't believe their pricing...
But what if that business is actually charging the right price?
Pricing can be one of the most challenging aspects of business and along with it comes many emotions and fears.
But what if you knew exactly the profit you wanted to make and from that the prices you charged to ensure you can not only cover your business expenses, support your employees and their families, but also return to you the OWNER, the person who takes on all of the risk the profit you desire & deserve.
Do you need help with your pricing strategy?
YES??? Reach out today as I love helping business owners maximise their business and make the Profit they desire.

Today I wanted to share a marketing & sales strategy that is often overlooked in business, and that is the power of Testimonials.
To have one of your clients share their experience of working with you and the results they have achieved from your partnership is one of the most powerful ways to market and sell your business.
Do you ask your clients for testimonials?
Do you ask for them regularly?
Do you have them on your website, on your social media and as part of all your communications with your customers and prospects?
If you don't then you are potentially missing out on not only one of the most cost effective marketing strategies, but also the most powerful.
Tune in to today's episode as I share a recent experience of just how powerful testimonials are for your business.

Running a small business often feels like you have to wear all of the hats.
From CEO, CFO, Marketing Manager, Sales executive, technician to the customer service & admin officer.
Sometimes things can get a little overwhelming and you don't know where to focus your time for the best & most optimal outcome.
However, often, we lean towards doing the things that we are best at and feel most comfortable doing. Often leaving the most important jobs, the ones that we may not enjoy, until we are too tired, can't be bothered and have run out of time.
For example, making sales call is not my most favorite part of my business. To be honest, right now though it is the most important part as I am still in the initial launch stage of the business.
So how do you know where to focus your time for the biggest impact in creating the success you desire?
Where is your time best spent at each stage of your business?
What do you need to start doing, stop doing, or do more of to have the best results?
This comes back once again to the current stage of business you are in, as discussed on the previous episode about the growth curve, depending on where you are at will depend on what area to focus on.
Listen in to today's episode as we deep dive into this topic and find out "Where should I be spending my time for greatest impact?"

Numbers are often scary for entrepreneurs, however I believe that numbers are important for anyone who is in business.
Why... well
-
They never lie
-
They can quickly highlight if there is an issue in any part of the business
-
You can use them to help you plan for your future success
-
They can help you make more informed decisions
-
They can help you to predict the outcome of your decisions and actions with more certainty
-
They can help take the emotion out of business and make better decisions with a clear head
Regardless of whether you are a female or male entrepreneur, a new business owner or a seasoned business owner, numbers can tell you so much and can help give confidence, peace of mind and some security in the roller coaster ride of business.

What the heck are Future Focused Financials and Why do I need them for my business???
Today I share the importance of planning for your business. Specifically mapping out your future financials & cashflows to assist you in understanding your business & gaining clarity on areas for improvement.
Set a meeting with yourself and business partners (if you have them) and take the time to plan your business financials.
Having future oriented financials assists your and your business success in the following 4 ways:
-
Make decisions with clarity
-
Understand if you need external financial support & plan for it
-
Plan your year ahead, including new services or products
-
Understand the impact a decrease in sales will have on the business
All planning for your business is important. The future focused financials flows into many other areas of your business, such as your marketing & sales strategy.
Take the time to do your planning, you definitely won't regret it.

How much money is leaking out of your business?
Today I share a super simple strategy that can literally save you $1,000s in your business. Cash money that will drop to your bottom line.
By taking half an hour a month to review your expenses and asking yourself the following questions, you will be amazed at just how much money is actually leaking out of your business unnecessarily.
As you review your expenses, ask:
-
Is this expense 100% necessary for opening the doors of my business?
-
Is this expense making me money?
-
Is this expense saving me money?
-
Is this expense saving me time?
If you answer NO to any of these questions or you are not sure, then cancel the expense as soon as possible.
When I implemented this strategy in my business I saved over $60,000, and my one of my clients in the Profit2Cash program this year has saved over $35,000 and is aiming to save another $100,000 in the coming financial year!!
Amazing!
Imagine what you could do with an extra $100,000 in your business?

Today's podcast episode is a little different from those I have shared to-date.
It is a topic however that has a profound impact in my life and I felt called to share on this today.
The Power of Choice.
I truly believe that the Power of Choice has the greatest impact in our lives. The decisions we make, intentional or otherwise, have led us to where we are today.
My own choices have had a profound impact on my life, at the time some of them seemed like the worst decisions I could ever have made, however on reflection they led me to some of my greatest learnings and achievements.
Listen in today as I share my own story and some of the choices I have made that have impacted my life. I am sure you will find a golden nugget you can use in your own life too.

Taking full responsibility means realising that for every experience you have in life, you recognise that your own actions & beliefs have created this outcome and reality. It means being accountable for your own actions and your part to play in any given situation. Rather than pointing your finger or blaming someone else, you take ownership of the situation. Once you are no longer the victim of the situation, and you understand that you have also played a part, you can start to formulate a plan to take action in changing the situation.
How can you take full responsibility?
Today I share a few different ideas of how you can start to take full responsibility and implement changes.
-
You recognise and speak up for the part you played in the situation and the resultant outcomes
-
You don't make excuses
-
You don't point fingers & blame others
-
You are open to review how your actions are contributing to a situation and willing to make changes, listen to others opinions & suggestions, and implement an action plan to change the situation or future situations
Is there anywhere in your business or life where you need to step up & take responsibility? Even where there can be consequences for speaking up, once you do take responsibility, changes can start to be made and you are no longer the victim, but can become the VICTOR.

This is the third in a series of podcasts focusing on Pricing Strategy. As mentioned, I believe pricing your products & services is one of the most important decisions in business and also one of the most challenging.
Today I share why I believe that low costs are one of the quickest ways to go out of business.
Here are my top reasons why I believe low prices aren't the answer:
-
Your Customers aren't loyal, they will always look for the cheapest price;
-
You need extremely high volumes to make a profit;
-
Someone will always undercut you in prices and you will end up in a price war that you may not be able to win;
-
The marketplace will perceive your product or services as low value and low quality;
-
You must consistently be focused on reducing costs & creating efficiencies;
-
They will potentially lead to burnout; and
-
It is very difficult to increase prices, especially to existing customers.
As I always share, you are in business to make a profit, not to be the cheapest business in town. Set your prices linked to the profit goals you set yourself and attract high quality, loyal customers.

Following on from last week's episode, today I am chatting about the various aspects to consider when setting your pricing strategy.
The most important being that first and foremost you are in business to make a profit! Your pricing strategy must enable you to not only pay yourself a market rate salary but also at least a 10-15% profit after all expenses including your wages.
My top tips to focus on this week in how to set your pricing strategy include:
-
Understand the costs of your business, both variable & fixed,
-
Be clear on your profit goals,
-
Do your market research, including competitors, customers & market influences that affect your business,
-
Be clear on your sales volume goals, and
-
How do you wish to positioning your products or services in the market
Pricing is a balancing act, an artform, and always needs to be reviewed. Ensure you establish a rhythm of reviewing your prices at least quarterly.

Pricing is one of the most challenging aspects of business strategy and can stump even the most seasoned business owner. In my experience many business owners are undercharging for their products & services, leaving money on the table to grow their business and live the life of their dreams.
In today's episode I share with you my top 6 tips on when it is time to consider increasing your prices. Do any of the following tips indicate to you that it is time to increase your prices?
-
Business is booming & you can't keep up
-
Alternatively Sales are slow
-
Introduce a new product/service
-
Your costs change
-
You haven't reviewed them for a long time
-
Competitors change their prices
Send me a message and let me know if it is now time for you to review your prices.

Have you set your 90 day Biz rocks for the first quarter of 2022?
In today's podcast I share with you the importance of setting powerful goals every 90 days that move you towards your powerful business Vision.
If your business Vision is the North Star of your business, your 90 day rocks are each segment of your journey that moves you closer towards your vision.
Each quarter set your 90 day goals, and then ensure you review and reset them every 90 days. These goals help you to change direction, course correct and keep you moving forward.
Take time today to work on your business, not in it to plan out your next 90 days.

Hello 2022 :)
This year in business my focus is on growth & systems (to enable me to grow & leverage) So I thought I would kickstart the year with an episode on why I believe implementing systems from day 1 is so important to your business success.
Systems give you freedom as they enable you to do all of the following:
-
You can leverage your time
-
It is never faster for you to do it
-
Better to have 10 people each earning you $10 than you earning $100
-
Allows you to spend time Planning rather than doing all the time'
-
Time to create new opportunities, sell, grow your business
-
time for you personally, otherwise working 10- 12 hours a day
-
Avoid overwhelm, burnout, forgetting things
-
gives you ability to train someone else to do the job
Let me know your thoughts on system and say hi to me on social media!!

In business, as in life, it really is OK to ask for help. I am not sure about you, but for many years I believed it was a weakness to ask for help. I thought I should know all of the answers myself, I should be able to come up with all of the solutions myself, and I didn't need or want to ask for help.
Luckily I learned that often the best outcome to a problem was asking for help. That two minds are often better than one, and more creative, more productive and more profitable solutions can be generated. Plus, people love to help someone, so ask, I am sure the person you ask will be excited and happy to help you.
In today's episode I share with you my story and how I never wanted to ask for help, and what happened when I did actually start reaching out for help. I share how 1 + 1 doesn't equal 2! and how when you start asking for help you realise that you are not alone in the world, that there is support and love all around you.

A little controversial, but I 100% believe you can and should pay your taxes joyfully...
Why you may ask? Well listen in to today's episode as I share my thoughts on this topic, and maybe, just maybe, it may flip your thinking too.

Make sure you are prepared so you don't end up on the tax debt merry-go-round
-
Have a fantastic tax accountant so you don't pay more than you need to
-
Be grateful for all of the benefits that Government services provide as your taxes poured back into the economy
-
Think of all of the employees, contractors, consultants etc that you tax moneys support
Send me a PM and let me know if I have helped flip your thinking so next time you pay tax you celebrate instead of commiserate.
