391. Simplify, Amplify, Automate

Simplify, Amplify, Automate - That's the 2025 Vibe!
That's the energy we're channelling this year to make waves in business and I'm excited to share how this approach is going to help us 10x everything!
We kicked things off by getting crystal clear on who we're targeting. Our society of action-takers, the ones ready to get uncomfortable for growth, that's who we're dialling in as our dream clients. It's about diving deeper, knowing exactly who she is and what makes her tick, so that when we talk, she feels seen and heard.
I've been streamlining like a madwoman – think less about juggling multiple offers and more about giving clear paths: either you're in the Academy or the Accelerator. It's less hustle, more clarity for everyone involved. And hey, if you're one of those amazing souls needing a hand with this, you know BBA is your go-to!
Key Takeaways:
Simplify everything! Whether it's your offerings, your client avatar, or the messaging – keep it tight. Make it undeniably clear who you serve and how. We're talking about going back to our brand strategy and getting even deeper with it.
It's not just about doing more, it's about making what you already have reach further. Use ads, more podcast appearances, and of course, lots of content! We're working smarter, not harder, with the help of an awesome content manager.
If you're dreaming of scaling up, automation is your best friend. We're refining our funnels, getting cozy with tools like Thrive Cart, and integrating ManyChat to handle those massive peaks in leads smoothly.
Building a business isn't just strategies and systems – it's also about working on the personal growth front. We keep those limiting beliefs in check because thriving businesses start from within.
So here we are, simplifying, amplifying, automating our way through 2025, which means more time doing what we love with clients who are just the right fit.

390. How to manage clients better & create great customer experiences in your business

Let’s dive into a topic that’s been buzzing in my coaching calls – amazing customer experiences and how the right tech can boost not only your service quality but your revenue too. Who doesn’t love a bit more income, right? 
I’ve been harping on about customer experience and how we, as coaches, consultants, or service providers, can step up our game in onboarding, managing, and off-boarding our clients using a great CRM system. But wait, there's more! 
Takeaways:
Nail the first impression with a stellar CRM
Keep every conversation, every project update, right where you can see it. Plus, it’s a breeze to loop other team members in, ensuring everyone’s on the same page.
Here’s a golden nugget – when you initially outline all possible services to your client at the start of your project, you plant seeds for future opportunities. They might come back a year later, ready to snag those extra services they initially passed on, thanks to your delightful portal that keeps everything in reach. 
Wrap up projects beautifully with automated surveys. Midway and post-project check-ins not only keep things on track but also garner those much-coveted testimonials. 
Personalisation is huge this year. Think surprise and delight – ways you can sprinkle joy in your client’s experience. Because remember, darling, your brand is as much about the feeling you evoke as it is about the service you deliver. 
So, my fabulous listeners, how are you currently managing your client journey? Could adding or refining your CRM make things slicker and more joyful?

389. My online business strategy for 2025

This year I'm doubling down on things that make sense and on platform that help more client connect with me and also help me get found not only now, but in the future. 
So today we're talking about:
Top of funnel
YouTube & podcast
Pinterest
Paid Ads strategy
Middle (nurture)
Email & list building as an ongoing core strategy
Socials
Bottom of funnel
Live Courses - BBA & Amplify - Bold Speakers Collective
Funnels - perfecting & testing simple funnels
BVC
Now some people might find this a lot but when you have great systems and team in place then it's more about managing the process.
