Out on location today for a client!

😍😍😍😍😍

I'll be spending the day capturing photos and videos content for their socials and live posting of their conference 😁

I love these days supporting my clients and learning more about who they are and what they do πŸ₯°

Plus, a day at a business conference is no bad thing for this Social Dragonfly πŸ˜‰

I just have to remember to look up from my phone πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†

Not another selfie showing a tired AF business owner who has been at her desk working since 7:30am!

😴😴😴😴😴😴

Because if you've been here for some time, you know I'm not one for mornings πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’«

I don't like meetings before 10am because I barely function before then without gallons of coffee β˜•οΈβ˜•οΈ

BUT!

Today, after I had a spectacular mindset shift on Friday, I knew I was not going to get everything into my day working my "normal" hours 😱

So, here I am... working hard πŸ’ͺ and there will be some new things to be announced soon 😁

I can't wait to share them with you!

How's your Monday morning?

There might be "no such thing as perfect" but I'm bloody trying!

🀞🀞🀞🀞🀞

Next week is the Bold Voices Live Event and I am doing my best to ensure everything about my speaker slot runs seamlessly!

Wednesday, I was writing and rewriting my slides... πŸ–₯

Yesterday morning, I was agonising over my entrance music... 🎢

Last night I was pulling my hair out with my digital downloads and email automation πŸ“§

There's a reason why I specialise in social media marketing! Because I honestly don't excel at other aspects of digital marketing... I don't enjoy them (and some of them just plain baffle me!) 🀣🀣🀣

Social media marketing is where I excel, but I know there are other elements and I have to do them for myself πŸ’ͺ

Today, I will be putting the final touches to my presentation, then it's all down to rehearsing it until I can do it backwards πŸ₯³

Who wants to come see it all come together next week? There are a couple of tickets left!! Check the link in the comments πŸ‘‡πŸ‘‡πŸ‘‡

I've put so much effort into this - you know it's going to be amazing πŸ˜‰

What song do you think I should walk on to?

🎢🎡🎢🎡🎢🎡

As many of you know, I've got my first big speaking opportunity next week, and I'm putting the final touches to my presentation...

But!

I have so many options of so many songs for what I can use to walk out to... I need your help!

So, tell me in the comments... give me your suggestions! πŸ™

You know me by now, I'm going to be talking about storytelling on social media to get in front of your next client 😍 a topic I'm passionate about πŸ₯³

Hit me with your song recommendations πŸ‘‡πŸ‘‡πŸ‘‡

Some of you may have heard me mention that I have been attending rehearsals...

πŸŽ€πŸŽΆπŸ’ƒπŸ»πŸŽ­

But would you come to see me in it if I told you when and where?

For a long time, I used to keep the different elements of who I am and what I do separate... you'd only know about all the things I do in my "spare" time if I let it slip to you 🀐

This year, I decided to stop that 🚫

I started talking more about the volunteer work that I do, my hobbies and interests... all the things that I help my clients to do πŸ₯°

But! I'm still not sure if you would come see me do the things I love to do πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈ

So, I thought I would ask the question, and let you tell me if you'd like to come see me sing and dance and act on the stage...

Well, that could have been embarrassing!

😳😳😳😳😳

As part of the Self Made Speakers Academy at the weekend we were all evaluated on our LinkedIn profiles...

Now, don't get me wrong, mine does need a few tweaks and updates 🫣 (something I'll be doing this week)

But! I did not expect this! 😱

Dr Byron Cole and Bianca Miller - Cole gave me top marks on my profile πŸ₯³ and gifted me an interesting book for scoring so high!

When they were talking about it and building up to whose was the best all I could think was "Oh my God! What if it's not me?"

Which sounds really arrogant and egotistical, but when many in the room knew that my specialist area is social media marketing... how could I think anything else?! 😣

Thankfully, it was mine that they rated so high 😍

There are so many memories from the weekend that I could keep talking about it for weeks to come!



If you want my help to review and update your social media profiles, drop me a message and let's get yours working for you 😊

My friend, Hayley Rackham, is amazingly thoughtful!

πŸ’šπŸ’œπŸ’šπŸ’œπŸ’šπŸ’œ

She gifted me all these amazing stickers of my business logo 😍 (and some of my face too 🀣)

Just because.

Because she supports my business and me πŸ₯° and she had the means to do it!

It's a wonderful, thoughtful gesture! I'm going to be putting them EVERYWHERE!

🀣🀣🀣🀣🀣

Watch out if you see me at a networking event... you might get "stickered" 😈😈😈

Love this gift! Thank you, Hayley 😘

It wasn't my intention to make someone cry...

😒😒😒😒😒

On Saturday at the Self Made Speakers Academy I made one of my fellow attendees cry 😬

It wasn't what I wanted to do! 🫣

But we were talking LinkedIn and our profiles and headlines...

I'd heard her story (and, boy! it was a powerful one!) and I'd listened to what she wanted to achieve with her speaking and business venture...

When she asked me what I would suggest for her headline I paused for 5 seconds and then gave her an idea πŸ’‘

We locked eyes and hers started to well up πŸ₯Ί in 0.2 seconds she had gone from powerful and passionate, to crumbling...

She excused herself from the room and a member of the team went out to comfort her as the tears began to flow 😭

Immediately, I felt awful πŸ˜–

I had made someone cry with my answer 😱

When she came back in the room and to the table, tears still in her eyes, she explained that she was so moved by my suggestion πŸ’œ

She said I had seen and understood her story so well and captured it in a simple, catchy sentence 😍 she said she never felt so valued πŸ₯°

We've since set up a call to have a full profile review and to see how I can help her to grow on social media 😁

I can't wait to watch her fly πŸ§šβ€β™€οΈ

What a weekend it was!

πŸ₯³πŸ₯³πŸ₯³πŸ₯³πŸ₯³

Many of you saw that I had a bit of a nightmare getting down to London for my two day Self Made Speakers Academy πŸ”Š but that was just the beginning!

I met some truly amazing people, heard some fantastic stories and made connections I'll never forget! 😍

Yesterday I delivered the opening three minutes (give or take some technical issues - it had to happen to me!) of my keynote speech πŸ’¬

It packed a punch πŸ‘Š

I saw at least 3 people in the audience welling up, and so many people came to talk to me afterwards about it...

Because I talked about my miscarriage πŸ’”

I wasn't sure I was going to include it until yesterday morning... when sat eating breakfast, thinking about my speech πŸ₯ I realised that if I want to inspire people to tell their story, and their truths on social media, I have to start with talking about how I shared mine πŸ’œ

Thank you so much to the Self Made Speakers Academy team for all your support and insights 😍 this weekend will be one I won't forget for a long long time!

Wow! Where did the time go?

⏰⏰⏰⏰⏰

You might have noticed that I haven't been posting much recently - chalk it up to a very busy couple of weeks 😴

First week I had The Land of Hops and Glory Beer Festival that I organised with a team of volunteers in St Wulfram's Church β›ͺ our biggest attendance since 2021! The people of Grantham and beyond almost drank us dry! 🍻

Last week was the amazing Norwich Beer Festival held in two different venues in the space of a week 🀯

Sadly, the signal was rubbish in Norwich for me to be posting and catching up with all my online friends πŸ’œ but I had an amazing time as part of the stewarding team (think "security" but more friendly!)

Yesterday was a whirlwind of catching up on emails (I still have 167 to go through!) and meeting with new clients who signed the contract while I was away with the festivals πŸ₯³

So, please bear with me as I catch up with everything I missed while I was away from my desk πŸ’»

I've also lost my voice while I was away (I blame the air conditioning of the buildings I was stuck in πŸ˜‚ always plays havoc with my throat!) so emails, texts and messages are my only form of communication until I can regain my voice! 🀐

How was your half-term?
