On Wednesday 19th of August, Andee Sellman of Three Months Forward shared how to stop managing expenses and start measuring returns, including:
✅ Shifting your mindset to see marketing and promotion as an investment, not a cost
✅ Tracking that investment the way you would any other return-generating activity
✅ Understanding the three-piece framework of product, people and promotion
✅ Recognising that every sale is an exchange of value

Andee has also published the book Three Months Forward, which explores the three margin framework in depth.

🤫 What if selling didn't have to feel pushy or fake?

For a lot of small business owners, especially the quieter ones, sales can feel uncomfortable. Like you have to become someone you're not just to win a client.

In this practical session, Ben Lai of Sales Ethos will walk you through why the loud, pushy salesperson stereotype is a myth worth busting, how his ETHOS selling method creates such genuine buy-in that people actively look for reasons to work with you, and why sharpening your sales skills is one of the highest-return investments you can make in your business.

If you've ever felt like selling goes against your values, this one is well worth showing up for.

💰 Are you treating your business spending as a cost? It might be costing you more than you think.

Most small business owners watch their expenses go out the door each month and hope something comes back. But what if every dollar you spend on your product, your people and your promotion is actually an investment waiting to pay you back?

In this practical session, Andee Sellman of 3 Months Forward will walk you through a different way to look at your numbers. You'll discover why every dollar in product, people and promotion should be tracked as an investment rather than written off as a cost, how every sale is an exchange of value and what happens when that balance tips too far toward the customer, and how the 3 Margin Framework™ gives you a clear way to measure the return, starting with Customer Margin as a minimum of 20% of revenue.

If you've ever wondered where the money actually goes, this one is worth showing up for.

On Wednesday 22nd of July, Laura Sever of Grazelnut shared how thoughtful food choices can bring people together at business functions and celebrations, including:

✅ Why great food plays an important role in creating connection at business events
✅ How a grazing board encourages guests to stand, mingle, and form new relationships naturally

🌐 Is your website sending prospects to sleep, or sending them straight to your calendar?

Most small business websites try to do too much, and end up doing nothing well. If your site isn't actively converting visitors into booked calls or meetings, it might be working against you.

In this practical session, Lachlan Lim from Hatch Digital Marketing will walk you through why giving visitors too many options actually kills your conversion rate and sends them bouncing away, why weak calls to action like "Learn More" need to go and how to replace them with a direct ask that drives prospects straight into a strategy session or discovery call, and the exact structure a high-converting landing page needs to move someone from curious visitor to confirmed calendar booking.

One session could be the reason your website finally starts earning its keep.

🧀 Think catering is just about feeding people? Think again.

The way you present food at an event says a lot about your brand. For small-business owners who host clients, run functions, or want to leave a lasting impression, thoughtful catering can be a surprisingly powerful tool.

In this fun and interactive session, Laura Sever from Grazelnut will walk you through how creative catering can take an event from ordinary to memorable, how the right food experience leaves a genuine impression on clients and guests long after the day is done, and how to see catering in a whole new way that goes far beyond just filling plates.

Come along, grab a bite, and walk away with fresh inspiration for how you connect with the people who matter most to your business.
