behind the scenes

⚠️⚠️⚠️ When your prospective clients land on your website, can they tell right away what your mission and services are? I've talked about the short window of time you have to capture someone's attention. Some say 8 seconds, others say 5, either way that's a very small window of time to get them exploring your website. The best thing you can do for your business is to have a clear message and call to actions to get those visitors moving through your website. ➡️➡️➡️ Remember that you want them to learn about your business, why they need you, and to finally reach out to learn how they can work with you! 📷 @chantellrae

You want to change certain things about your life or business? Pause and take it one day at a time. It might take a bit longer than you want but you will get there! 💓💓💓 @huntinglouise

When I started my business I had no idea how my life was going to turn out years later. Now, after a little more than 5 years, more than 300 clients (crazy, I know) and being a single mom 24/7 (and a lot of other things) I'm still here pushing forward, growing, learning, evolving.If you are a in the middle of a difficult season in your life, please remember that as Winter becomes Spring your current situation is not as permanent as you think. Give yourself grace to yourself (I know is hard!) and extended and share that grace with others. .

As a Christian my faith has helped me through the darkest of times. Two of my favorite verses during those days were the following: "So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand." Isaiah 41:10 and "She is clothed with strength and dignity, and she laughs without fear of the future." Proverbs 31:25 .

Does this sound like you? ➡️ You have been running a business for one, two, or three years and now you are at the point that you feel stuck. You know your business can grow but you don't know what steps to take and I think we've all been there 🤷 .

Get to know your audience, but not just anyone that will listen. You need to focus, find your people, educate them, listen to their needs in order to serve them better. .

After you figure out your audience, then work on targeting your ideal client within your own industry. Work on standing out from everyone else by showcasing your unique skills. Don't be afraid to make changes because in order to grow we need to be flexible and evolve. .

Last but not least, make your self visible. How? Promote yourself on social media, share blog posts with useful advice, share your latest work, and just put yourself out there. People want to see you and your work so don't be afraid to share it! 💓💓💓
