By the end of this episode, you'll know the three things you need in place for a successful business

"There is so much to running a business that it affects us as individuals, that it affects the people that we work with and the people that we live with.

And it's those topics that I love to explore because the whole point of the show is to bring stories, conversations and motivational inspiration for you, the listener, so that you are inspired to go and try these things out for yourself.."

Wendy Harris, Making Conversations Count - (September 2022 )

Psst! Low on data? Here's a lower bandwidth version for you.

Time to ramp up your business with the three things you need to know to make a business successful..

Ok, that's a huge over simplification, and we know it.

But we're all caught up in the haze of celebrations here...

It's not every day your podcast hits its 100 episode milestone, and we intend to celebrate that fully.

So, for the sake of argument, we're going to say that the three things that make a business successful are:

Sales

Marketing

Strategy

And boy have we covered those in depth on this podcast.

Over the sixty minutes of this episode, you're getting a full masterclass on running a business from the world's finest entrepreneurs and experts in their fields.

You're going to learn everything from how to make your website sell, through to attracting the kinds of customers who would buy from you in the first place.

You're going to learn how to connect with those customers.

You're going to learn how to manage your business once you have the customers buying from you.

So, grab yourself a pen and notepad and get ready to make a lot of notes.

A poignant moment from the episode:

"Most companies, and I used to work with Fortune 500 companies, so they have billion dollar budgets and they're basically creating content and sending it on every platform and seeing no results. They're just "oh, great. We can do Twitter. We can do Facebook and we can do LinkedIn and we can do Snap and we can do all these things. So let's just throw content out there and see what happens." That's not content marketing. Content marketing is about the idea that I want to actually build a direct relationship with an audience member."
