The Four Things I Wish I Knew Before I Started My Business

Today’s episode is a bit of a different one. I asked what episodes you’d like me to touch on, and I got so many requests to do one on tips for early-stage business owners. It’s been on my ‘episodes to record’ list for months now, and today, we’re finally sitting down and doing it.

I think if we truly exhausted the list of mistakes I’ve made and what I’ve learnt from we would actually be here for days, maybe we’d break the record for the longest podcast of all time (and beat Joe Rogan), but that wouldn’t be enjoyable for anyone, so i’ve picked my 4 most important lessons to go through in this episode, and if you find it useful, we can definitely do more of these type of solo eps!

PITCH DECK TEMPLATE

This audio episode is not sponsored by Adobe but I am working in partnership with them at the moment, and as part of that partnership, we've worked together on a pitch deck template which you can find here: https://adobe.chrd.ly/GraceBeverleyxAdobeExpressYT

I know pitch deck best practice is individual to every industry, but I really hope this will help if you're considering investment for your business! Let me know if you use it i'd love to see.

WORKING HARD NEWSLETTER

You can now sign up to the brand new working hard newsletter! We’ve been talking about launching a newsletter for forever, but I didn’t want to do it until we knew it could be the most useful it could possible be!

I am personally very against inbox filling fluff, and I’m very picky with what I sign up to, so the brief for the Working Hard newsletter was a 3 minute read that helps you consume smarter, not longer. You don’t need me to tell you we waste actual years of our lives scrolling, so I wanted to create a newsletter that was packed full of recommendations, hacks & extra bts from the podcast.
