    134: Social Media Management Will Look Different in 2025: Get Ready For It!

    Social media has changed so much in the last few years, to the point that social media management is almost an entirely different role to what it used to be! That’s why in our opinion, we’re finally entering the era where it’s going to be seen as a premium, luxury service that commands a four figure price tag. What can you do then, if four figures is a world away from what you’re charging right now? Grab your headphones – and let’s start planning out what you need to do to get to that point in 2025.   In this episode, we’re chatting about: What we think social media management is going to look like in 2025How you can create a better client experience to win over your clients instantlyWhy you need to set clear expectations with your client right out of the gateHow you can find clients who are ready to pay you four figures per month Check out the full show notes here!

    132: A Non-Woo Way to Get Realigned and Have an Epic 2025

    Do you remember why you started your business? No? Here’s the episode for you! Your “why” should shape every decision you make in your business (including turning down that client who wants a million calls a month), because it’s just that – YOUR business. You’re no one’s employee and you can do whatever you like. But if you’ve lost sight of why you started, and have ended up running a business you’re falling out of love with, maybe it’s time you sat down and got yourself realigned (and not in a “woo” way. Just a normal way).  In this episode, we’re chatting about: What each of our “whys” are and how they’ve slightly changed over the years as we’ve changedBenefits of freelancing vs being an employee (and a reminder that you aren’t an employee of your clients as a freelancer!)Getting your business aligned with what you actually want and your interestsHow you can share parts of your “why” with your audience to create connections Check out the full show notes here!
