Amy is an absolute Gun of a BAS Agent, but what is truly fantastic about her is her straight forward and candid nature.

She's straight laced, and what you really want as a business partner to make sure you keep on track.

Anyway, if you want to meet her... do come for our BNI Open Day, 19 March 2026.

If you are wondering who you might meet on our Visitors' Day on 19 March 2026... Well, here's who...

Our BAS Agent, Bookkeeper, Amy O'Connor , SheCounts, has seen businesses build from the ground up... including her own.

A full-time Mum, and a full-time business owner, she represents the embodiment of resiliance and tenacity; and she's a wealth of bookkeeping and business numbers knowledge.

It's been described as a cult... It's been derided as an MLM... But what is BNI really? 🤓

Well, unlike cults, you are always welcome to have a look to make up your own mind. Unlike a MLM, we offer nothing more than a family of business owners who want to help you succeed. 🥳

SO, if you've always been afraid, or have never heard of BNI, here's a wonderful opportunity to come and see what it's all about.

My BNI Business Networkers - Forest Hill chapter is running our inaugural 2026 Visitor Day. It's great to find other business owners and businesses all in one room for networking, breakfast, and hopefully a good laugh.

If you don't want to stand out, here's a great chance to hang back and blend into the crowd and discover what BNI is all about.

19 March 2026, 6:45 - 8:30am, Morack Public golf course.

Bring your own chicken to sacrifice... JUST KIDDING... 🤣🤣

Big or small business... ROI on any investment is always an important calculation that needs to be made.

Sure some purchases are emotional... I mean sanity purchases... I'm looking at you new Camera that I don't technically need coz the old one works just fine.

But we want to make sure that that investment will drive up revenue, either in helping us work better or faster, or more efficiently.

Video marketing, and marketing in general is exactly that. It's an investment, not a cost. You invest in marketing not because it will immediately drive sales, but it helps you grow your business by building credibility, trustworthiness; improve efficiencies in some cases, or actually become the products.

So how do you actually determine the ROI of Video? It starts with the mindset shift that video marketing isn't a cost centre, it isn't a magic sales button, but an investment into your business.

I explain more in this video here and how you can actually see ROI in video where it was hidden before:

Looks empty now, but it's just the calm before the storm...

It's Official Launch day at Pet Price.

We've been working hard with them to get their social media videos going to promote this new way to shop for pet supplies!

Excited to see this get going!

Tis the season to ...
Learn how to decorate my Gingerbread house better. 😁

Apparently, I've been doing it the wrong way round. 🙄

Thank you Caroline from Sweet Caroline for sorting me out.

What a wonderful morning it was.

Just because we can, does it mean we should?

I was watching Netflix's Frankenstein, which is a rather good adaptation of the novel, and was reminded, in this YouTube channel I follow, the question of the right to exist, consciousness and monstrosity.

We can all be monsters, we can all be creators, we can all do marvellous things, and be incredibly destructive as well.

So the question of "whether" should always be followed "Should we".

In this day and age of AI and seeming good will of trying to create something that will benefit humanity. Should we?

Frankenstein set out on the goal of defeating death. And ended up incapable of understanding his creature, and becoming a monster that he fought to distance himself from.

What kind of world are we creating when we create our technologies seemingly from the want to advance ourselves?

Unless you are a card carrying narcissist, watching yourself on repeat when editing your own content videos is quite cringe...

We know, coz we do this all the time.

So the best way to solve this problem? Get someone else to do it for you.

OR make sure you start with the right script, and shoot well, so that by the time you get to post production, you are just adding little flourishes, and should be done in about an hour, or less...

Being consistent on Social Media is hard, especially when it comes to having enough things to talk about over 6 months or a year.

But there is a trick that I will reveal here. Here's how 30 seconds can save you headaches for the next 6 months...

OMG... 😻 It's been a journey getting this workshop on the road... We are happy to announce the "Confident on Camera Workshop"!!!

If you lack confidence in presenting, especially on camera... You are not alone. I was there too. That's the reason why I work behind the camera and not in front of it. 😜

So when putting this workshop together, it is a culmination of my 25 years of directing everyone from seasoned actors to nervous wrecks... including myself.

Once I got over the mindset, and formulating a system of creating content, and using all the advice I have given to actors and presenters, I am finding it so much easier to just spend at most 3 hours a week to get videos done to promote Fantestimonial.

Now we want to help small businesses out there trying to get content done, and solopreneurs trying to produce more authentic content to market their businesses.

Check out the Workshop on this link:

And here the deal... If you are not sure if this will help you... Why not try our 5 Days Kick Start to Confident Video Challenge. We promise that in 5 days, you will be ready to post your first effective video!
