Lesson 1 – Intro

Our Instagram

As an entrepreneur, you are your business. You developed the idea and worked tirelessly to build the service, risk funds, and propel your growth. No one is better qualified than you to make decisions at your company. You are the expert – and that is the problem.
Research suggests that being an expert can make you more closed-minded in your thinking. People who perceive themselves to be experts tend to be less open minded to new ideas and alternative viewpoints. The scientists behind the study call this the “earned dogmatism effect” because we have a tendency to think in a more dogmatic, or closed-minded, way when we consider ourselves to be an expert.
Unfortunately, your position as an ‘expert’ may be impacting your ability to succeed. Take the time to recognize this and be willing to be #openminded. The best business people always are.

Tomorrow is the BBA Masterclass 'Design your Business with CANVA.'

Canva, in a nutshell, is the ultimate design tool for non-designers. It’s user-friendly and the free version gives you access to most features that you will need.

We use it all the time to create everything from certificates to social media graphics and presentation slides.

The tool is particularly useful when you are building a brand (you can save all your colours and fonts) and will in no time help you build a memorable online brand.

Are you using canva? If so what do you use it for?

BBA Members can join the 'Design your business with CANVA' Masterclass on Thursday 14th Oct @ 7pm BST.

One of the biggest things that is rarely spoken about with being an entrepreneur is a need to be talented at just about everything. Finance, writing, marketing and even sales need to be part and parcel of your everyday activities.It can be fun, after all, it gives you a chance to break away from the mundane activities of your everyday tasks to try your hand at something new. But, it can also be a lot of work to try and learn all of these skills as just one person.
The solution to this is varied and it depends on your preferences. However, a good way of dealing with this, typically, is to have a set day of the week which you set aside for these tasks that are outside the norm of your typical working day. That way the flow of your other work is not as easily disrupted, whilst also allowing you to take the opportunity to complete the ‘housework’ that keeps your venture in motion.

Business relationships won`t grow unless they are nurtured. This can be done in the form of keeping an eye on what your connections are sharing and liking on LinkedIn or other social platforms.
Commenting on a few statuses, answering a few questions, commenting on people’s promotions or other life events does not take too much of our time and can really help with strengthening the relationship. It’s always good to connect with people in multiple places as each social platform is different and offers different opportunities to deepen the relationships.
How are you nurturing your prospects?

I bet that if you were to ask any women leaders, trailblazers, game-changers, or unapologetically ambitious entrepreneurs, they would tell you all the same thing. The only thing standing in your way is YOU.
