Mistakes That Made Me Eman Ismail

Sandra Booker is a fractional COO and right-hand woman to some of the top 7-figure business owners I know.  

In this episode, she shares her near-catastrophic business mistake of losing track of her cash flow, and she walks us through her strategies for managing finances, the lessons she’s learned, and money management advice for small business owners.

We also get into the difference between a virtual assistant and an online business manager, common hiring mistakes, and what to look out for when spending money on tools.

Laura Jane Barnes is an entrepreneur, creator, musician, and social media savant who also happens to be a TikTok & IG viral sensation. (You’ve probably heard one of her songs!)

In this interview, Laura shares her biggest business mistake: the inability to separate her personal identity from her business.

I talk about my own personal loss and Laura recounts her journey from viral music creation on social media to redefining her business approach after a critical injury.

Together, we examine how tying your identity too closely to business successes can often be disastrous.

We talk a lot about mistakes on this podcast. This time, I want to talk about how to do something right.

Instead of our usual interview, I delve into the art and science of effective email marketing following recent deliverability updates from major email providers like Google and Yahoo.

I share to ensure your emails continue to reach your subscribers' inboxes, and I give you the scoop on list cleaning, making unsubscribing easy, maximising subscriber engagement, nurturing subscribers, and sending targeted, relevant emails.

I did this presentation as a webinar for The Marketing Meetup, a community of 50,000 marketers last month. Hope you love it! :)

Mai-kee Tsang – a Sustainable Visibility Mentor and Podcast Guesting Strategist – shares her biggest business mistake: pedestaling the leaders she’s learnt from.



In this interview, she talks about the dangers of idolising coaches, the importance of setting personal boundaries, and the negative effects of high-pressure coaching tactics.
