Work smarter
If you run a business, you have a personal brand. More than ever people want to know the face behind the brand. We want to know what what they stand for and the kind of person they are.
And where branding (in the simplest form a hot iron on a sheep backside) has been around for centuries, the rise of the personal brand has exploded due to social media and the rising numbers of solo entrepreneurs.
I had a fabulous Facebook review pop-up today that made me think how can you make the most of your customers testimonials?
This is what Rob Moore said:
Debbie has been my mentor for the past 7 months while I've been growing my business Cookie - I can't recommend her enough! She has given me so many useful tips and tricks to grow my business on social media as well as being completely honest with me if I'm just doing something wrong. One of the points being that it's fine to stop working sometimes! Her advice and support has not only made me a happier person in myself but has resulted in a quadruple in turnover since we first started working together. What more could you ask for! An absolute pleasure working with her!
Mental health is something we all need to get comfortable talking about. We all have it, all the time, just at some points our mental health is not quite as we’d like.
Add to this being freelance, often working alone, and responsible for every aspect of your business. Mental health can sometimes suffer.
So I asked the fabulous ladies in the Blue Stockings Society to offer their advice for overcoming mental health problems when you’re freelance.
