How to handle small town business donations
- Get clear with yourself on what you're willing to do.
- Ask yourself, is it an event/organization I value and love?
- Don't be afraid to kindly and clearly tell other sponsorship request it doesn't fit in your business right now
Rural Women Owned Facebook Groups and Masterminds
- I recommend joining a group where you have to put a little skin in the game
- When I pay for a Mastermind, I know I'm going to value my belonging and make time for that partnership
- Start by looking at some rural groups you can belong to.
- A few groups I suggest:
How to stay focused on your own goals without being tempted by other ambitions
- Outline your goals on paper so you can see how far you've come
- You need to have times where you center yourself, get clear on if it is serving you, and then write down your goals
Tips for growing business Instagram engagement
- Check-in on stories with behind the scenes of your day to day
- Spend time in your DMs
- Use Instagram Reels
- - MKM Reels Training Group
- Be engaging yourself
- Instagram Episodes of the podcast:
How to price your services
- To begin I started creating packages with the base of $15 an hour
- After the first year, reevaluate the prices
- Let the businesses know you value them and appreciate their business
- Look at what other businesses in the area are charging
- Take a deep look on if your prices are serving you and your needs
