Have you ever seen a grown woman grovel?

I mean really humbly apologise and open themselves up for the (well-deserved) backlash of disappointing tuts and eye-rolls?

Well if you’d like to see that for yourself, sign up for my weekly newsletter because tomorrow’s is going to be a doozie…

Emails don’t need to be overwhelming. I help small business owners plan, write, and set up emails so they actually get read. Crucially, without the stress and overwhelm.

DM me if you’d like a hand. Or if you just want to know what my favourite biscuit is. I’m always happy to talk biscuits.

Ever open your email list and think… ‘Ugh, I haven’t emailed in ages!’ (Cue shame spiral😳)

Here’s the thing; your subscribers don’t need perfect emails. They just want to hear from you.

Even one small email - a story, a tip, or just a friendly hello - is enough to start building trust. Don’t overthink it.

Full disclosure, I also have the same feelings about not posting on social media 😬

Here I am, just banging on about one of my favourite tech tools again! ☺️ You see, I’ve seen Manychat transform businesses, and here are my 5 top tips for helping it to transform yours!

If you’re thinking of taking the plunge:

1️⃣ Keep it simple - don’t overcomplicate your flows.

2️⃣ Use conversational language - people want to feel like they’re chatting with a human and not a bot.

3️⃣ Automate but still personalise - add first names and tailor responses.

4️⃣ Test your flows before going live (trust me, you’ll thank yourself later 😅).

5️⃣ Don’t forget to connect it to your email list or booking system to save even more of your precious time!

Manychat isn’t about replacing you, it’s about supporting you so you can focus on the parts of the business you actually love.

The hardest part about Manychat? Setting it up.

The easiest part? USING it!

Once your flows are live, you can:
🍾 Sit back while new subscribers join your list
🍾 Watch DMs turn into sales
🍾 Track conversations with a few clicks
🍾 Duplicate and amend existing sequences

That’s why I offer done-for-you set-ups complete with instruction videos for onwards management - so you don’t have to stress about the tech. You just get to enjoy the results.

If this sounds right up your ally, then drop me a line!

Always feeling like you're wearing too many hats in your business? 👒🎩🎓⛑️Yeah me too.

Imagine having someone in your team who never sleeps, answers FAQs in seconds, warms up leads and nudges people to buy from you - all without you lifting a finger.

That’s exactly what Manychat can do for your business.

✅ Growing your email list
✅ Sending personalised messages
✅ Booking calls
✅ Sending freebies
✅ Increasing sales through automated reminders

…it’s like having a super-smart, always on the ball assistant in your DMs.

I set up Manychat sequences for clients so they can free up their time and watch their conversions increase. Want me to do the same for you?

Back to it! 👩‍💻

I had some jolly nice time off the last week. We went to Norfolk for a family holiday and it was lovely. The British weather was kind to us and we did loads of fun family activities. We needed the break - it had been a long time coming.

As predicted though, I came back to plenty on my to-do list! Focus not being a strong suit of mine, I was a bit worried I’d get that “I don’t know where to start” scenario, but I actually managed to get my head back in the game pretty quickly! (Helped probably by breaking the back of the holiday laundry on Sunday night as I do find an overflowing laundry basket a tad distracting 🫤)

How’s your summer holiday going? Have you been managing to focus or are the summer distractions proving too much for you?

Ps I would’ve shared a lovely pic of my holiday tan, but I’ve not had chance to apply it! 😆

This is the face of a woman who has just dropped her kids at holiday club for the very first time.

It was nerve-wracking.

I know to many that might sound stupid, and their kids are used to it, but I’ve always managed with family/myself in the past.

Last week was a rollercoaster. First my son said he wanted to go, then he didn’t. Then we talked about it and he agreed to try it, then he denied all knowledge of the conversation 🤯 It was a lot.

Anyway, he came around to the idea and off they went. I’m sure they’ve had the best day, and I’ve got a load of client work done.

Still feel a bit guilty though. Although hopefully some happy faces on pick-up will assuage my guilt.

What difficult decisions have you had to make this Summer holidays for your business?

Words I actually said on a voice note to a business mentor this morning 🤦🏼‍♀️

In fairness I’m fairly well known for my blunt turn of phrase, and whilst the delivery was… rustic, I stand by my question.

It’s always good to get a second opinion and to bounce ideas around with people you trust when it comes to things in your business.

Safe to say, when you work with me, no matter how you ask the question, there’s no judgement here and I’m happy to provide my experience and support to guide you. I get it!

We’re staring down the barrel of the school holidays now for sure.

The next 5 weeks are a blur of sports days, end of year discos and school shoes that don’t really fit anymore but I’m not replacing before September

I don’t know about you lovely folk, but I’m furiously planning childcare, workloads and trying to make sure that I’ve got all the systems in place so that my business doesn’t crash and burn in a 6-week fruit roll-up and ice cream infused period.

Things like;

🍦 making sure my social media is planned and scheduled (where possible)

🍦 making sure my lovely email subscribers don’t forget about me by writing and scheduling all my emails

🍦 getting my offers in place so there’s real clarity on what I offer (in case anyone is perusing my website whilst I’m not around)

🍦 making sure my discovery call process is automated and clear (don’t want people giving up because it’s too difficult to talk to me!)

Want to know more about how I can help keep your business growing even whilst you’re sipping margheritas on the beach (or chasing kids around a playpark - I get it)?

Watch this space 👀, because I’m running a Summer Survival Special later this week.

Can’t wait until then? Why not book a call and we can talk it through. Link in bio 🔗

I am definitely not good at everything.

I’m especially not great at designing social media graphics. You see it’s not my thing - and that’s ok.

It does pose a few issues when I’m trying to be more consistent on socials though!

So I went and outsourced it to my lovely friend Gemma .creative.realm who also did my branding for me. She’s busy as I type working her witchy magic on it! 🪄✨ Can’t wait!

Tell you what is my thing though; launch and funnel strategy. So if you’d like to outsource that because your launch and funnel strategy skills are on a par with my sm post designing skills, then let’s grab a virtual brew and see how I can help you.
