    3 Mistakes Killing Your Low-Ticket Sales

    Join the low ticket early bird Explore the Growth Nest Join the Digital Marketing Playground Membership Are you working harder than ever but still feel like you're on a hamster wheel? You’ve heard that low-ticket offers are the key to passive income, but maybe yours isn't selling, or worse—you’re too scared to even launch it. In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on the 3 biggest mistakes I see heart-led business owners make when creating low-ticket digital products. We’re talking about the "generosity trap" of over-giving, the "perfection paralysis" that keeps your best ideas hidden, and the "dead-end offer" that fails to lead clients to your higher-level support. I’m sharing exactly how to solve one specific "Initial Itch" for your clients, why an imperfect launch is actually your greatest asset, and how to build a strategic bridge that turns a £9 buyer into a lifelong client. What we cover: • The Over-Giving Trap: Why "War and Peace" is actually stopping your clients from working with you further. • Embracing Imperfection: Why I left the "ums" and "ahs" in my own course to show you that "done is better than perfect." • The Strategic Bridge: How to ensure your low-ticket offer is the first "yes" of many. • The £9 Solution: A behind-the-scenes look at the Low-Ticket in 48 Hours Sprint and how it solves these exact problems for you. If you’re ready to stop overthinking and start automating your expertise, this episode is for you. Ready to launch your own offer in just 48 hours? Ready to work with my on Strategy?

    How to Plan Your Quarter in One Nap Time (Or Coffee Break)

    "Carla, I don't have time to plan my business." If you've ever said this (or thought it), this episode is for you. Most business planning advice assumes you have hours of uninterrupted time. But as a parent-focused business owner, you don't. You're working during nap time, between school runs, or grabbing a coffee break between clients. And yearly plans? They sound great in January, but by March, life has happened—kids get sick, clients cancel, and your carefully crafted plan is gathering dust in a drawer. So what's the solution? 90-day sprints. In this episode, Carla shares her exact system for planning your quarter in less than an hour. You'll learn how to: ✅ Set one needle-moving goal for the quarter (not 10 overwhelming ones)✅ Break it down into three manageable monthly projects✅ Create realistic weekly tasks that fit around school hours (no evenings, no weekends)✅ Honour your season of life—whether you're in a growth season or a rest season✅ Review and adjust every 90 days so you stay flexible as life changes This isn't about doing more. It's about doing what matters. Carla also shares her own 2026 goals (122 Growth Nest members and 300 Playground members) and breaks down exactly how she's planning her quarters to hit those targets without burning out. Plus, she talks about why she only takes one client a day now, how she blocks her calendar to protect her energy, and why stepping out of your comfort zone is essential for growth. What You'll Learn: • Why yearly plans don't work for busy parents (and what to do instead) • The power of 90-day sprints and how to create them • How to set one big goal and break it into three smaller projects • How to map your goals into your calendar so they're actually realistic • Why celebrating your wins (however small) is essential • How to honour your season of life and adjust your goals as you change Free Download: Grab the free 90-Day 'Nap-Time' Planner workbook mentioned in this episode!

    In this episode, I’m walking you through how to plan your content and your business for January 2026 in a way that actually feels doable. We’re talking about slowing things down, getting clear on what you really want this year, and creating a business that works around your life — not one that drains it. I’m sharing what changed for me when I stopped trying to do everything and started building systems that gave me time back. We’ll talk about planning content without overwhelm, creating income that doesn’t rely on you being “on” all the time, and how to set boundaries that protect your energy. If you’re feeling tired, stuck, or like you’ve been running on empty for a while, this episode is for you. It’s a gentle reset. A chance to reflect on where you are, what you actually want, and how to move forward in a way that feels supportive rather than stressful. You’ll also hear how I plan content for January, how I use awareness days without burning out, and why having even one small passive income stream can change everything. This isn’t about doing more. It’s about doing what matters — and doing it in a way that fits your life. Grab a cuppa, take a breath, and let’s plan a calmer, more sustainable 2026 together.

    December Content Strategy:

    Welcome to the MyBump2Baby Business Podcast! I'm your host, Carla Lett, founder of MyBump2Baby, the Growth Nest, and creator of the Digital Marketing Playground. In this episode, we're diving deep into your December content strategy specifically for pregnancy, birth, baby, toddler, and family-focused businesses. December is magical, but it can also be chaotic. Over the last nine years in business, I've watched businesses thrive and unfortunately, some close. Content is a massive part of that success, and getting it right in December can set you up for an incredible January. In this episode, you'll learn: • Why most business owners get December content wrong (and how to avoid their mistakes) • How to understand your audience's mindset in December and what they really need • The content mix strategy: balancing festive fun with genuine value • Cyber Monday strategy and how to leverage low ticket offers • How to use freebies strategically to build your email list • Why December is the perfect time to book out your January calendar • The difference between reels and static posts (and when to use each) • How to include calls-to-action without feeling pushy • Email marketing strategy for December that actually converts Key Takeaway: You don't have to post every day to be successful. Strategic content beats volume every single time. I'd rather you have 3-5 amazing strategic posts than 10 posts that don't lead anywhere. Resources mentioned in this episode • FREE: 30 Daily Content Prompts for December (link in show notes) • The Full December Sandbox: 31 pregnancy captions, 31 baby/toddler captions, 8 weekly emails, 10 reel titles, and awareness days - just £14.97 Connect with me: • Instagram: @mybump2baby • Website: mybump2baby.com If you found this episode helpful, please share it with another business owner who needs to hear this.

    Mindset for Mums in Business

    Feeling like you “should” be doing it all… and doing none of it? Same. In this episode of the MyBump2Baby Business Podcast, I’m joined by Claudia, a motherhood identity coach, to talk straight about mindset for mums in business. We unpack the biggies: imposter syndrome, people-pleasing, pricing without resentment, comparisonitis, and that sneaky negativity bias that makes one grumpy comment feel louder than a thousand kind ones. Claudia shares simple, doable tools to help you: step into your business identity (without another 47 certificates),set kinder boundaries so you don’t burn out,talk about your offers with confidence (selling = serving), andkeep your focus on the right next step for your season.We also chat community, why beginner-friendly beats “overwhelm in a box”, and how to handle feedback without hiding under the duvet. If you’ve ever wondered “Who am I to do this?”, this chat will feel like a deep breath and a brew. Shout to our Growth Nest users Flic (Creating Dreams Sleep Solutions) and Amanda (North Star Nurture) for sharing how an all-in-one system and a supportive Playground make showing up easier—and a lot less faff. Listen in, take what helps, and remember: you matter. Your work helps families thrive. Let’s make business feel lighter, one tiny shift at a time.
