This fluffy monster is Frances. Frances is my beautiful Spanish sidekick who has been with me for almost 14 years.

I often joke that she knows more about websites, digital marketing and business than I do.

It is important to have a sidekick, so today I ask, who is your sidekick? Fluffy or not so fluffy, share a picture of your sidekick.

If you are anything like me, this year has started as a bit of a tornado blast of emails, information and projects.

I'm not complaining in the slightest, but it does mean I have around 10 notepads with information on them on my desk.

Today is National Clean Your Desk Day in the UK, and I think it is the perfect time to clean off and consolidate.

How about you? Are you cleaning off your desk today and getting organised?

Every year between Christmas and New Year, thousands of amazing people decide it is time to start their own business. I know I was one of them over 25 years ago.

Most of those people don't have a clue where to start. From the 1st of January 2022 I am posting daily tips!

And so here it is Merry Christmas!

Welcome to another week you amazing people!

Over the weekend I took on my Nemesis, the seal around the bath. I know, I know that is probably an easy job for most, but our bath has a big gap and it takes a while to plug the leaks.

I've taken on the Brian Tracy 'Eat the Frog' mentality this weekend, if I don't do the thing I don't want to do then I won't get to do the things I do want to do.

I'm starting the week with a similar mentality, a new month and feeling fresh.

I've got some great projects that I am working on at the moment and only have room for two more in my schedule to ensure I give everyone the time they deserve.

I have also this weekend been reading through Mike Michalowicz book Get Different (go get it, you will love it) and I have made a few decisions on what to do and how to do it. Watch this space, it is going to be a fun few months.

What are you taking on this week that will be your frog?

It isn't often you get to post something that has made you think, "Wow we did that!" but today......

Every now and again a client calls and says "WHAT DID YOU DO?" a phrase that can send a cold sweat through anyone providing a service.

This morning I had a call like that. After my initial response of "Oh no what?" my client burst out laughing and screamed, "DO IT AGAIN!" like a child being thrown in the air by a parent.

The next 25 minutes is the sort of conversation that I love...
Since working with us they have seen the following:
115% Increase in Website Traffic
146% Increase in Conversion Rate
404% Increase in Transactions
318% Increase in Revenue

How did they do this?
A solid customer avatar.
A good customer journey.
A targeted marketing campaign to increase traffic.
A great customer experience that doesn't end with a sale.

How is your business doing?

What is your favourite social media platform to hang out on?

I will get us started, I spend a lot of time on Facebook. Twitter just seems to be full of angry people these days.

What do you think?
