Your purpose isn’t your service. It’s what changes for your client after working with you.

I had a client who said, “I sell candles.” Then she told me about the customer who cried because a candle reminded her of her nan. That’s the business.

Ask yourself:

What do my clients feel after working with me?

What do they do differently?

Am I saying that in my marketing?

When you know that, your marketing gets clearer and easier to write.

For the business owner at 0% battery right now.

This year has been a lot.

The next three months are the stretch, you don’t need to win them, you just need to get through them.

The surcharge is gone. Your prices might still have gone up. And that's not a bad thing.

From 1 October, businesses can't charge card surcharges. The government says that saves customers money. It doesn't. Someone still has to pay for it, so it gets built into the price.

I've been chatting with someone in my DMs who has a really valid point. Some of her local businesses have put their prices up by more than 2%, and it's left her feeling a bit blindsided. I get it. But there's more going on behind the scenes than the surcharge. If five of your suppliers each go up by 2%, that's close to 10% on your costs. It has to come from somewhere.

Some businesses are also using this moment to fix prices they should have changed years ago. That's not greedy. That's running a real business.

What bothered her most wasn't the price rise. It was that nobody told her it was coming. And she's right to feel that way.

Your clients don't hate price rises. They hate surprises. Tell them early, tell them the date and tell them why.

If you haven't looked at your prices yet, do it this month. Wait much longer and you'll look like you're scrambling. A couple of percent might not feel like much, but it eats into your profit.

Save this for when you plan your price rise. And send it to a business friend who's about to put theirs up.

Who do you ask when you're the one in charge?

Should I raise my prices? Take on that client? Say yes, or finally say no?

When you run the business, there's no manager to check with. It's just you, at 9pm, going round in circles.

It's what my clients lean on me for most. Not just the strategy, but someone to think it through with.

If you need someone in your corner, send me a DM and we'll have a chat.

A very real day in the life of a multi-business owner and business mentor in Perth.

It starts with a slow stroll around the park with the pup and a Whitney Houston concert in the car. Then it's snacks, Meta Ads chaos and reminding my clients that consistency beats burnout.

Yes, I also schedule lunch in the sunshine with no doom scrolling. That's the part of my small business strategy I'm most proud of.

As for "follow my own advice"? Still pending.

Which time slot is your day? Drop it in the comments.

And tell me your go-to car karaoke song. I need new material.

Turns out the universe wasn't going to do it for me.

I spent years waiting for money to magically appear. Checking my inbox. Hoping the next client would be the one.

Then I did the scary thing. I looked at my numbers and raised my prices.

Nothing went wrong. My clients still booked, and my bank account finally started behaving itself.

So if you've been waiting for a sign, this is it.

Drop a 😂 if you've ever blamed Mercury retrograde for your cash flow.

I don’t need to know your industry to help you run a better business.

I’ve had clients who are hairdressers, coaches, retailers, tradies, e-com stores, service providers... completely different worlds. But the same things trip them up.

Because running a business isn’t really about your craft. It’s about:

• Your financials
• Your marketing
• Hiring the right people
• Leadership and boundaries
• Forecasting
• Strategy
• Customer service

The stuff nobody teaches you before you open your doors.

You already know your industry inside out. That’s not what you need me for.

What you need is someone who’s actually built businesses from scratch, made the mistakes, and knows what it takes to run one properly, no matter what you sell or do.

That’s what I bring. Not expertise in your craft. Experience in business.

If that’s the support you’ve been missing, DM me “MENTOR” and let’s chat. 💬

No one ever tells a small business owner they’re proud of them.

So I’m going to.

I am proud of you.

Not because everything’s easy right now. It’s not. Wages are up. Super payday’s here. EFTPOS and credit card fees keep creeping higher. Product costs are up. Shipping’s up. And it’s that time of year again, where you’re already running on fumes before you’ve even got to the next few months of 2026.

I’m proud of you anyway.

Running a business right now is genuinely hard. Anyone who tells you it should be easy “if you just work harder” hasn’t been in the thick of it.

You’re not behind. You’re not failing. You’re doing an incredibly hard thing, in a hard economy, and you’re still here.

I tell my mentoring clients this all the time, but you deserve to hear it too.

I see you. I am proud of you.

Save this for the day you need reminding. 💗

Still wondering why your content isn’t converting?
Chances are, you’re skipping the most important part of your strategy: top-of-funnel content.

This is the stuff that gets people to notice you.
Not pitchy, not salesy, just valuable, shareable, connection-building content that makes people think, “Who’s this? I need more of that.”

In this carousel I break down:
✔️ What top-of-funnel content actually is
✔️ Why you need it to grow your audience
✔️ The best formats to use
✔️ Real examples for service & product-based businesses

Because you can’t sell to people who don’t know you exist.
Build awareness first—then the sales will follow.
