    S2 EP62: What happened after the Dragons said no. Gill Erskine on building WildStrong her way.

    In this episode, I sit down with Gill Erskine, co-founder of Wild Strong, a movement and outdoor fitness business she runs alongside her husband Andrew. Gill takes us through the journey from passion project with no financial targets to a sustainable business with employees, predictable revenue and a model she genuinely loves. It's an honest and funny and inspiring conversation about what building a business actually looks like, including Dragon's Den, a house fire that left the family in a holiday cottage for six months, and the moment they decided to go all in or walk away. We chat about how Wild Strong evolved from in-person community classes to a hybrid model with online courses, a podcast and YouTube.How Fully Booked Bootcamp helped her restructure her offering, stop undercharging and launch her first online course. The content approach that took Wild Strong to over 100,000 Instagram followers. 📚 Resources Mentioned• The Get Fully Booked Masterclass - www.nikihutchison.com/fbc Connect with GillWild Strong on Instagram and Facebook: @wildstrong Connect with Niki• Website: nikihutchison.com • Instagram: @nikihutchison • LinkedIn: Niki Hutchison 👩‍💼 About the HostNiki Hutchison is a marketing strategist with 25+ years of experience helping businesses go from overlooked to fully booked.

    S2 EP61: What Happens When You Stop Winging It

    There's a particular kind of exhaustion that comes not from doing too little, but from doing everything right and still waiting for it to pay off. The posting, the showing up, the saying yes to things that stretch you. All of it consistent, none of it quite converting. This episode is a letter Niki wrote to herself, the version of her that was working hard, spending money on support, watching others seem to thrive, and quietly concluding she must be missing something fundamental about herself. She wasn't, and neither are you. What was missing was structure. Not effort, not expertise, not the willingness to be visible. Your marketing foundations need to be built before any marketing tactic will reliably convert. This episode explains exactly what those foundations are, why visibility without them exhausts rather than grows you, and how to start building them in the right order. 📚 Resources Mentioned• The Get Fully Booked Experience - www.nikihutchison.com/fbc Connect with Niki• Website: nikihutchison.com • Instagram: @nikihutchison • LinkedIn: Niki Hutchison 👩‍💼 About the HostNiki Hutchison is a marketing strategist with 25+ years of experience helping businesses go from overlooked to fully booked.

    S2 EP60: The Six Reasons Your Business Isn't Growing (And None of Them Are What You Think)

    The businesses that aren't getting booked are not, as a rule, the ones doing less. Most of them are working just as hard as those that are fully booked, sometimes harder. The difference is almost never effort, it's because they haven't cemented their unbreakable foundations. In this episode of From Overlooked to Fully Booked®, I'm introducing the BRIGHT Framework: a six-part diagnostic I've developed from working with hundreds of service-based businesses to identify exactly what's missing before marketing tactics will work. The six foundations are Brand, Relevance, Innovation, Goals, How, and Tell. Most businesses skip straight to Tell (the content, the platforms, the visibility strategy) before the other five are solid. That's what produces the pattern I see again and again: genuinely busy, genuinely committed business owners who are "busy but invisible." This episode is a diagnostic. Listen to it with your own business in mind, and by the end you'll know which of the six foundations need attention and why fixing them will do more for your bookings than any tactic could. 📚 Resources Mentioned• The Get Fully Booked Experience - www.nikihutchison.com/fbc Connect with Niki• Website: nikihutchison.com • Instagram: @nikihutchison • LinkedIn: Niki Hutchison 👩‍💼 About the HostNiki Hutchison is a marketing strategist with 25+ years of experience helping businesses go from overlooked to fully booked.

    S2 EP59: Why You're Doing Everything Right and Still Not Getting Booked

    The advice isn't the problem. The order is. Posting schedules, hook formulas, platform strategies. None of it is wrong. But when you apply tactical advice on top of foundations that were never properly set, you end up working harder than you should for results that feel further away than they ought to be. This episode is about what comes first. I introduce the six foundation pillars that I see in place in every fully booked business I work with, and make the case that getting these right changes what's possible without adding more to your plate. Your brand. Your messaging. Your business model. When these are doing their job, the content you were already creating starts to land with much more effect. Offers that weren't selling start to sell. And you find yourself doing less, not more. If the effort has been there but the results haven't matched it, listen to this one. 📚 Resources Mentioned• The Fully Booked Experience - www.nikihutchison.com/fbc Connect with Niki• Website: nikihutchison.com • Instagram: @nikihutchison • LinkedIn: Niki Hutchison 👩‍💼 About the HostNiki Hutchison is a marketing strategist with 25+ years of experience helping businesses go from overlooked to fully booked.

    S2 EP58: Your Sales Strategy Needs A Shake-Up

    You're showing up, posting consistently, sending the emails, doing all the things you've been told will bring in clients. And yet the sales aren't coming through the way they should. If you've started wondering whether the rules of selling have changed underneath you, you're right, they have. In this episode, I share why selling in 2026 demands a complete shake-up and how to do it. We cover why founder visibility, personal outreach, and surprise-and-delight touchpoints are now the strategies that actually convert, and what that looks like in practice, with real examples from my own business and community. 📚 Resources Mentioned• The Fully Booked Experience - www.nikihutchison.com/fbc • The Marketing Insiders Club - www.nikihutchison.com/membership • Adventures in Marketing 2027 - Thursday 4th February, Edinburgh - https://adventuresinmarketing.uk/aim2027 Connect with Niki• Website: nikihutchison.com • Instagram: @nikihutchison • LinkedIn: Niki Hutchison 👩‍💼 About the HostNiki Hutchison is a marketing strategist with 25+ years of experience helping businesses go from overlooked to fully booked.

    S2 EP56: Your Random Stories Are Killing Your LinkedIn Reach with Louise Brogan

    If your LinkedIn reach has nosedived and you can't figure out why, you're not imagining things. The platform's algorithm fundamentally changed last Autumn as to how it decides who sees your content, and most business owners are unknowingly working against themselves. In this episode, LinkedIn expert Louise Brogan, author of "Raise Your Visibility on LinkedIn" and Adventures in Marketing speaker explains exactly what's happening behind the scenes of LinkedIn right now and how to fix it. You'll learn why starting with your story instead of your point is costing you visibility, why your engagement habits might be confusing the algorithm, and why trying to be everywhere is the fastest route to being seen nowhere. Your posts deserve to reach the people who need them. Louise explains exactly how to make sure that happens. 📚 Resources Mentioned• Adventures in Marketing 2026 - Thursday 6th February, Edinburgh - https://adventuresinmarketing.uk/ - Last 10 Tickets • Louise Brogan LinkedIn • Louise's YouTube channel: (3.9M+ views, 110K subscribers) • Louise Brogan's book: "Raise Your Visibility on LinkedIn" Connect with Niki• Website: nikihutchison.com • Instagram: @nikihutchison • LinkedIn: Niki Hutchison 👩‍💼 About the HostNiki Hutchison is a marketing strategist with 25+ years of experience helping businesses go from overlooked to fully booked.

    You're working harder than ever, yet somehow the results aren't matching the effort. You've got the skills, the drive, and the ambition, but something feels off.
