25.01.2022 I am going to let you in on a not-so-secret secret. I LOVE data! Love it! I love analysing data, I love organising data, I love finding solutions, I love creating report templates, I LOOOOOVE excel! Oh, don't even get me started on formulas! Honestly, ask any of my friends, they'll tell you I get weirdly excited over creating some intricate reporting template in excel. If I didn't have a very big part of my brain dedicated to creativity..., I would definitely have ended up in data & analytics or finance. I enjoy working with numbers. In fact, I've worked with some big names, such as Mars, Bayer and Bombardier Transport in my time. Creating things like reporting templates is my thing! The idea that there's a tonne of data that needs to be sorted and organised then presented in some way that makes sense is just an exciting challenge for me! So if you have a database that needs to be sorted, a report template that needs to be created or maybe you just need a new way to record data in your business, I'm your girl! Because creating efficient systems is creating an efficient business; and efficient businesses GROW! #data #analytics #reporting #excel #content #creation #social #marketing #gettingshitdone #helpinghand #freelanceadministration #cairns #businesswomen See more

23.01.2022 Who here is a crazy plant lady? I wasn't, until I started working from home. Then my little girl became obsessed with watering the plants every day, so I buy more plants so she's got more to water (seems like a legit excuse right?!). Do you have a favourite plant? Let me knowso I can add to my collection! ... #content #creation #social #marketing #gettingshitdone #helpinghand #freelanceadministration #cairns #businesswomen See more

23.01.2022 Hello Monday! Who here hates Monday? Well, stop! What did Monday ever do to you?! It's time to start thinking differently on Monday mornings if you don't enjoy them. Because how you start off your Monday is how you set the tone for your week. And that tone should be POSITIVE!... So take a deep breath, think about how you're going to get sh*t done, and see how quickly you get some positive motivation! Here's to another productive week! #content #creation #social #marketing #gettingshitdone #helpinghand #freelanceadministration #cairns #businesswomen See more

22.01.2022 Last night I had the (very nervous) pleasure of speaking to a wonderful group of people at a TradingMate.com.au event. Once the nerves subsided, I felt like I could talk for HOURS! I was so pumped to be able to pass on some great tips about growing your business, working efficiently and outsourcing! My passion really is helping businesses succeed.... If you think you could benefit from some help on how you could be growing your business, I would love to have a chat to you! Drop a line and say hi! I promise I won't really talk for hours... unless you want me to! #content #creation #social #marketing #gettingshitdone #helpinghand #freelanceadministration #cairns #businesswomen See more

21.01.2022 Did you know that the Small Business Adaption Grant still has 20% of its funds yet to be allocated? That means there's still time for you to be taking advantage of this fabulous initiative to GROW!! You can easily check to see if you're eligible here:... http://bit.ly/Smallbizgrant If you are, and you'd like a package put together, I'd love to partner with you and help you grow your business in these tough times. Send me a message! #adaptiongrant #content #creation #social #marketing #gettingshitdone #helpinghand #freelanceadministration #cairns #businesswomen See more

19.01.2022 Who loves rainy days? They make me so much more productive. Maybe it's because I'm not dreaming about being outside in the sunshine! These kinds of days are perfect for blog and EDM writing! ... How often do you update your website blog or send your database an EDM? If you're not keeping in regular contact with your current and potential customers or clients then maybe it's time to ask someone to help you get on track with that. I can even update your website or schedule the EDM for you! Easy! Don't have a database? I can even help set that up for you too! It's important to keep regular contact with those your business interacts with, as it helps to keep your business in the forefront of everyones minds when making decisions and choices. A block of 10 hours could get you several months worth of blog posts or EDM's. If you need help, why not send me a message and see how I can support you and your business!

18.01.2022 A little louder for those in the back!! Let me tell you a little secret... One of my biggest fears when starting my own business was 'what if I don't have anything good to offer anyone?' Ahhh self-doubt, you're a jerk! And guess what?! Women are far more likely to doubt their abilities than men do. Ladies, what's with that? Turns out, they've even coined a term for that, it's called The Confidence Gap.... I came across a great article about it in The Atlantic. Read it here: https://bit.ly/31Ch1X4 Time to start changing our thinking ladies! #content #creation #social #marketing #gettingshitdone #helpinghand #freelanceadministration #cairns #businesswomen #women See more

17.01.2022 This little business venture of mine has been in my head for a while. A long while. And I've had plenty of encouragement from those around me to pursue it too! But every time I thought about it there was one thing that kept making me doubt myself... what if nobody wanted what I had to offer? But if I think about what's at the core of what I have to offer, it's helping businesses achieve success. And who doesn't want that, right?! I don't ever think about what I have to offer..., because to me, it's not about what I can give, it's about what I can solve. It's being presented with a problem and being asked to help find a solution, whatever that may be! If there is an area of your business that might need some help right now, then maybe I could be the one to help you find a solution... I do love a challenge! #problemsolver #makingadifference

17.01.2022 One of the biggest hurdles businesses seem to have when it comes to socials is creating content! It seems easy enough, because a LOT happens in your business, right? But it's kind of like when someone asks a song you like, and suddenly you can't seem to think of ANY songs! So, I've put together some free social prompts to help get you started.... Here are some other tips when posting: Remember, it's called SOCIAL media, so keep it social! You don't need to write a novel to get engagement It's ok to share the hard/difficult things about business You don't need to post every day, but try to have some regular posts Happy posting!

14.01.2022 A couple of weeks ago I had the pleasure of talking to a fantastic group of business owners, where I got to share some tips on how you can grow your business. One of my tips was UPGRADE! Upgrade software, hardware, tools, staff training, processes.... anything that you haven't looked over in a while, it's time to check and see if your business is running as efficiently as possible.... If you're in regional Queensland, there is still small business adaption grant money to be handed out! This is such a great opportunity for businesses to upgrade move forward with some help. If you'd like to know how your business could possibly benefit from this, I'd love to have a chat with you. I know change is scary, but not growing and moving forward in your business is scarier! #content #creation #social #marketing #gettingshitdone #helpinghand #freelanceadministration #cairns #businesswomen See more

14.01.2022 "There is a crack in everything, that's how the light gets in." - Leonard Cohen This is one of my favourite quotes, because it's a reminder to me that there can be positive results from what is seemingly a negative situation. So for those that are going through a hard time at the moment, just know that there is something positive waiting for you just around the corner!... #quote #strong #positive #light #content #creation #social #marketing #gettingshitdone #helpinghand #freelanceadministration #cairns #businesswomen See more

11.01.2022 Hello! How's your to do list looking today? Full? How many of those items were there last week... and the week before... and the week before that... If you just responded with a 'yeah but...' then it's probably time you give me a call! Make time to make time sounds silly, right? What if I told you that an hour today could save you 5 hours tomorrow? Would you make time for that hour today? After a 1 hour consultation with me, we can work through that to do list and make a pla...n to finally make you more time! I promise, it's worth the time today.

10.01.2022 It's been a minute! But I've promised myself I'm going to put more work into my own business, starting with my socials! You know how the saying goes... Do as I say, not as I do! It's SO important to make time to work on your own business, but it seems to be the first thing that goes out the window when things get busy!... So I'm going to take a piece of my own advice, and make sure I put the growth and development of my own business as a top priority of mine. Starting now! Happy Monday! #content #creation #social #marketing #gettingshitdone #helpinghand #freelanceadministration #cairns #businesswomen See more

10.01.2022 Today is a REALLY important day. It reminds us to ask those around us if they're ok. I hope that everyone does this every day, but it's great to have a reminder. This is a campaign close to my heart as I think of those I've lost to their mental health battles. Mental health still has such a terrible stigma around it and I still don't truly understand why there is so much shame and guilt around speaking about it! I want everyone to know th...at I'm always a phone call or message away. Please know I will always offer a safe place for you to share your feelings without any judgement. #ruok #mentalhealth #breakthestigma #speakout See more

09.01.2022 What a week! I attended my first official event as Virtually Meg thanks to TradingMate.com.au I got to wear some heels! ... I created a password database I created a double page spread for Cairns Business Women's Club to appear in the next edition of Oasis Magazine I updated a couple of websites Posted a tonne of social posts Wrote MANY EDM's And, on top of allll of that success, I got to pick out every. single. piece. of grated carrot from my child's dinner... because we can always count on our kids to keep us grounded, right?! Now... where's my coffee!

08.01.2022 How does your business connect with past and potential customers other than social media? Social media is a powerful marketing platform, but it shouldn't be your ONLY platform! Customers like to feel special, remembered... important! And rightly so, because without them, your business wouldn't survive!... EDM or Electronic Direct Mail is a great way to keep in contact with past customers as well as the potentials! You probably feel that your own inbox is flooded by them, right? Because that one time, you bought some shoes and now you get emails every week telling you of a deal they have. But here's the thing... you probably haven't unsubscribed. Why? Well, because you know that even though THIS deal doesn't appeal, the next one might, and you do love their shoes, and you would HATE to miss out on a good deal! EDM's are a good way of reminding people you're there, you have products or services they like, and you want them to think of you the next time they're looking to buy. If you're not sure how to go about EDM marketing, shoot me an email and I'd be happy to talk more about it! [email protected] See more

07.01.2022 Who likes to push themselves to step outside the box? Well, guess who's lucky enough to be a speaker at the next TradingMate.com.au event on September 30... THIS girl! It's been a while since I've been behind a mic and in front of an audience. 16 months to be precise, when I was running the CBWC awards at 30 weeks pregnant! ... But I strongly believe in helping businesses grow and become more efficient in their day to day running of things. So I'm stepping out from behind my laptop once more and speaking to a great group of people about how they can use people like me to streamline, be less stressed and GROW! If you want to come along, please head over and buy a ticket!

07.01.2022 There’s a wonderful old Italian joke about a man who goes to church every day and prays before the statue of a great saint, begging: ‘Dear saintplease, please, pleasegive me the grace to win the lottery.’ This lament goes on for months. Finally the exasperated statue comes to life, looks down at a begging man and says in weary disgust, ‘My sonplease, please, pleasebuy a ticket!'... The lesson is, if you have a wish or a goal in life, you can't just ask for it and expect it to happen; you need to take steps to ensure it can happen! Do you have a business goal? And have you put steps in place to help get you there? Because it's all well and good to hope you can 'build an empire' or 'open 10 more stores' or 'not have to be working in the next 6 years'; but if you're not doing anything to help get you there - spoiler alert - you're not going to get there! It's time to set some goals! And put steps in place to achieve them! If you're not sure where to start, I'd be more than happy to sit with you over a coffee and chat all things business development. - [email protected] See more

07.01.2022 Do you wish you had more TIME? I feel like most of us could answer yes to that. Which begs the question... what are we doing that seems to take up so much of it? So maybe we don't wish we had more time; maybe we just wish we managed our time better?... If you feel like you're constantly wishing for more time to get things done, I can help you become more productive with your time by helping you build systems and put processes in place. Because life is about living, not about working! #content #creation #social #marketing #gettingshitdone #helpinghand #freelanceadministration #cairns #businesswomen See more

06.01.2022 **SMALL BUSINESS GRANTS** In the second round, we are prioritising regional areas and allocating half of the funding to support small businesses in regional Queensland."

This funding can be used for marketing and content development, which means I can help you create a comprehensive strategy to ensure the money is put to good use! Send me a message now or email [email protected]

05.01.2022 Let's talk TIME! Time is our most precious currency in life, because once it's gone, you can't get it back. It's the same in business; no matter what you do, you're trading your time for something. Your time is gold, and you should be treating it that way. So you should also expect that customers, clients and suppliers will also treat it that way!... If you're in a business where time is especially valuable, such as industries that require appointments, you should be very aware of what is worth your time and when people aren't respecting it. Do you have policies in place about booking cancellations? Sure, sometimes unforeseen circumstances means people need to cancel last minute, but often I see situations where people 'forgot', or even worse, just simply don't turn up. That is time you can't get back, and time you're unable to sell once it's gone. It's costing your business money and it's important people understand that. As we enter into the Christmas lead up, many of us are going to become busier than usual, which means your time is more valuable than normal. Now is the time to make sure your time is treated as a prized possession. #content #creation #social #marketing #gettingshitdone #helpinghand #freelanceadministration #cairns #businesswomen See more

05.01.2022 Friends! How good is this?! If you have teenagers or young adults, this is a fantastic program for them to attend. Honestly, I wish there was something like this when I was a teenager. Money management should absolutely be taught in ALL schools. Plus, if you don't know Susan Elisabeth Fischer, she's pretty damn great!... *pretends to be 16 for the weekend*

02.01.2022 HAPPY FRIDAY! It's a new financial year, and I'm going to celebrate by giving away this GREAT offer to help businesses get back on track! In July, if you purchase a 6 month EDM package, the set up will be FREE!... Electronic Direct Mail is a simple and effective way of reaching existing clients and growing your potential client base. It can be linked to your facebook page AND your website for easy sign up. These EDMs can also be converted to blog posts on your website, which means more content, and google will love you for that Although it's a 6 month package, you don't have to use them all in 6 months. Use them sooner, or just have them ready to go for later down the track. EASY! If you'd like to know more, send me a message and ask away.

01.01.2022 Happy International Women's Day to all the fabulous women out there. The ones I'm inspired by and the ones I'm yet to be inspired by. It's true, we are strongest when we encourage each other and cheer each other on. I am so lucky to be surrounded by strong, talented and inspirational women in so many aspects of my life, and I'm thankful for their support every single day!
