People Behind the Business: a show for small businesses with small teams & huge ambitions Rosemary Richings

Is co-working the right fit for you? In this episode, I share my mostly positive experiences with co-working, along with the story of why I joined in the first place. Hopefully, this will help clear up any misconceptions you might have. This episode focuses on everything from the acceptance process, to how to work around the pros and cons of co-working.

For those of you who haven’t been keeping up with Marie Kondo hype train, her core philosophy is about only keeping things that spread joy. I believe that this can be applied to the online platforms you’re using to promote your business, blog, and podcast, as well. 

Because engaging with your audience online isn’t just about selling. It’s also about picking mediums that feel natural to you. 

In this episode, I talk you through how to take methods that aren’t bringing you joy or results out of the equation.

Just in time for Valentine’s Day, here’s an episode where I share some ways that business owners have shown and continue to their love and appreciation for their customers. I believe that it’s the little things that count when it comes to expressing your love and appreciation. And many of the examples discussed in this episode are proof that I’m not the only one who thinks that way.

As someone with a blog, and a podcast I’ve got so many emails (“pitches”) from people interested in being guests on my podcast, or contributors to my blog.  And as much of a privilege as it is to get emails from people from all over the world, the pitches that are bad are extremely bad.  

With this episode, I hope to not only decrease the number of bad pitches that show up in my inbox but give listeners a quick intro to what makes a pitch “good”.  This episode will be useful for anyone that wants to get press attention through being featured on everything from podcasts to blogs and magazines. The key takeaways can also be used to cold pitch potential customers, and actually get a response. A portion of this episode was originally a Facebook Live I did on my Facebook Page: (https://facebook.com/rosemaryrichings). 

If you’re on Facebook, feel free to like my page. Because you never know. I might do more lives just like this in the future!

Yolanda McAdam really understands the reality of being a small business owner, for one very simple reason:

Her business, Suite 532 isn’t her first business. First there, was a safari business. Then, there was a coaching business. But, as a result of burnout, and the challenges of moving from South Africa to Canada and not knowing a lot of people, she decided to go back to working a 9-to-5 job for a while. Eventually, she quit that job and started the business she runs today, Suite 532.

For those of you who are currently running your first business, there’s a lot that you can learn from her. Because this episode is Yolanda’s honest reflection on what making plenty of mistakes along the way taught her about what it takes to succeed as an online business owner.

Every piece of your branding is definitely important (from the logo, to your website, to the photos you feature). 

So…how do you make sure that you don’t get too caught up in how “nice-looking” your colour-scheme is, and focus on branding your business in an intentional way? More importantly, why is that so important? In this episode, I spoke to a branding specialist who answered both those questions.
