    Ep 51: The modern day entrepreneur

    In a world where technology and creativity are increasingly entwined, being a modern day entrepreneur requires mastering both skillsets - something that didn't used to be the case. In this episode, you will learn: 1. The skills that modern-day entrepreneurs need in order to be successful 2. The importance of claiming your identity as a creative individual 3. The practice of creativity, and how it can help you get seen online "In order to do that, you need to put your creative hat on. You need to redefine yourself as a creative. You need to make sure that you make time for creativity and for play." I was a panelist on the Coffs Coast Creative Industries Visioning, the future networking event. It really got me thinking about entrepreneurship and the skills required to be modern-day startup-preneur, and I wanted to share those thoughts with you here in this episode. Previously start-up entrepreneurs needed skills like being a networker, a really effective networker. They had to get along to a lot of live networking events. They leveraged print media and the artwork was generally handled but the newpaper's graphic design department - not the business owner. In this episode, you will learn the following: 1. The skills that modern day entrepreneurs need in order to be successful 2. The importance of claiming your identity as a creative individual 3. The practice of creativity, and how it can help you get seen online __________________________________________ Get my free 14-page Ultimate Start-Up Checklist for everything to take you from start-up success to growth and beyond:https://www.sharonjoycoaching.com/startup Find out how you can work with me: https://www.sharonjoycoaching.com/ https://www.instagram.com/sharonjoycoaching/ Podcast Disclaimer Loved this episode?

    Ep 50: To share your prices or not?

    For most of us, a key part of the sales process requires is to let potential clients know our prices and packages. In your modality training or business coaching groups, you may have been told to have them on your website or not have them on your website for different reasons. Perhaps your coach or trainer has a system that they use and teach that favours one or the other. Before you decide what's best for your business you want to listen to this episode. There are pros and cons to advertising prices and not showing them at all before a discovery or sales call. "I definitely think that the answer is very individual. But I think it's always wise to go in with eyes wide open because often I'll have new clients who perhaps have had other advice where somebody has really given a hard and fast way that they should advertise or not advertise their prices." In this episode, I talk about the benefits of both advertising and not advertising your prices publicly- particularly for those in the first few years of their business. You'll get a chance to consider what's right for you and what feels most authentic and aligned. __________________________________________ Get my free 14-page Ultimate Start-Up Checklist for everything to take you from start-up success to growth and beyond:https://www.sharonjoycoaching.com/startup Find out how you can work with me: https://www.sharonjoycoaching.com/ https://www.instagram.com/sharonjoycoaching/ Podcast Disclaimer
