COME ON!Let's jump in!Embracing my Love for StationeryBefore I spill the stationery secret, let me share a story. I've talked about this before, and while some might tire of it, stationary lovers will surely enjoy it.I used to live near the beach, making it easy to bike to Officeworks, a big stationery store here in Australia.I had this electric tricycle with a basket for my purchases at the front and another at the back for Munchkin, my dog. We often stopped at Officeworks during our rides. I once told Davey I needed to buy some Post-its.He sassily remarked that I had just bought some a few weeks ago, and asked how many I really needed.BUT... Here's the thing: I used those Post-its during a retreat to map out a course and some key tasks, and those very actions being implemented, and that course being mapped out... well it all turned into a $75,000 launch! Eventually, those Post-its helped me make $200,000.Needless to say, from then on, every time we rode near Officeworks, Davey would ask if I needed more Post-its! This little system of mine is the stationery secret behind making millions.Creating a system to turn stationery into incomeIt's not just about buying loads of Post-it notes. It's about creating a method to manage yourself and your tasks. This stationery system keeps me focused on generating income and staying productive. Tasks I’ve mapped on Post-its over the past decade have brought in millions for my business.Let me know your thoughts via our Text FanMail!

The good news is that you're not alone, and there are benefits of being late to this online business party.That's exactly what I'm addressing in this episode of the Heart-Centred Business Podcast, and it's Day 3 of #Tashmas so there's a special gift in it for you as well!But first: What is #Tashmas?I do it for both my birthday (1-12 March) and pre-Christmas (1-12 December) every year! You get a daily podcast episode, with a hot tip or practical strategy as per usual... but you ALSO get a present every day! It could be a freebie, a special offer, a competition... something fun every single day.Today, let's map out some of the BENEFITS of being late to start your online business...Let's dive in!Is it too late?You might think starting an online business now is daunting with all the competition and market saturation. Especially now that we're in an economic contraction, it seems to be easier for more established businesses to adjust their strategy and survive, because they have an existing audience. But being late to the party isn't always a bad thing. In fact, there are some really juicy benefits - I have four in particular to share.You're not alone!I remember when I started this podcast all the way back in 2015, I thought I had missed the boat completely when it came to podcasting. I was sure that the entire podcast market was completely saturated, and there was no space left in the market. That's particularly hilarious because three of the podcasts I listen to consistently are in the Top 10 in Australia, and didn't start until 2019 or later. I had already been running my podcast for 4 years when they started.Does audience size matter?One of the things people get very concerned about is the size of their audience - especially on long-established platforms. If you haven't made it on Facebook by now, you never will... right? WRONG! New pages emerge and generate huge followings quickly, even to this day. But the days of needing a big following, or measuring your success by audience size are over anyway. Anyone can buy followers. That doesn't actually mean you're successfully running a business on that platform.Using Facebook as the example, Facebook ads have become really cheap compared to what they were 2 to 3 years ago. I'm seeing a big drop in the cost of Facebook ads because there's more competition for the advertising dollar from other platforms now, But there are business owners who saw that ads were getting more expensive a few years ago, and decided to abandon them altogether. Similarly, now that Instagram Reels don't get the same reach as carousels and feed posts, people assume they've missed the opportunity to grow an audience. Same with TikTok.Keep reading and grab the links at tashcorbin.com/433Let me know your thoughts via our Text FanMail!

Full article and links available at tashcorbin.com/432Has something horrible happened that really derailed your momentum? I've got an entire episode about what to do when something horrible happens in business.And it's Day 2 of the #Tashmas series, which means I have a gift for you!But first: What is #Tashmas?I do it for both my birthday (1-12 March) and pre-Christmas (1-12 December) every year! You get a daily podcast episode, with a hot tip or practical strategy as per usual... but you ALSO get a present every day! It could be a freebie, a special offer, a competition... something fun every single day.Today, let's explore what to do when something horrible happens in your business. It sounds intense, but don't stress; I've got your back with some down-to-earth strategies and resources you’ll love.Ready? Let's do it!Worrying about something horrible happeningIf you've only been in business for a short amount of time, you may have some fears about what might go wrong as a business owner. Regardless of how long you've been in business, I think we all still have some fears about some of the bad things that might happen to us as business owners. Some of those things may have already happened in the past, so we're afraid of them happening again. But in a lot of cases, those things haven't happened to us yet, so we can catastrophise what might happen, and how it might feel.I therefore have put together five things that you can do when something horrible happens in your business.1. Get some perspectiveI think when we are deep in our business and when our business is our livelihood, it's also wrapped up in our identity. We can lose perspective about what's important and what is happening. So I think it's really powerful to just gain some perspective about what this means in the grand scheme of things.Let's say you make a mistake with a client. Whether that means you have to redo some of the work you did for them, they ask for a discount, or a refund, or they don't want to work with you anymore... In 10 years' time, when you look back at this mistake, will you still have anxiety about it? In most cases, the answer would be no. In most cases, you will be grateful for what you can learn from making that mistake. You can learn how to not make it in the future, and you'll move on. Things that feel like they're big and hard and life-altering and horrendous now, will just be like water off a duck's back in five years' time. What feels really hard today won't feel so hard three months from now....read the rest and grab the links at tashcorbin.com/432Let me know your thoughts via our Text FanMail!

Then today's episode will be perfect for you!  I have collected eight signs that it is absolutely time for you to look at increasing your prices.I think reviewing your prices consistently and looking for opportunities to increase your prices is really important, especially in the first few years of your business.We often under-price our services when we're first starting out.
