Hey guys, we're workflow branding a visual marketing company invested in changing the way you create content on the line. In 2019, we revamped the WorkPlay Method and have been using this exact process to launch businesses visual marketing strategies all over the country and in Europe. Your online brand is not a color palette, or font or even your logo. Your brand is the visuals that package your offers, the visuals that you use to show up on Instagram, the visuals that allow your audience to feel your energy. The problem is you can't use the same 5-10 brand photos to communicate these essential brand elements effectively, it's time we change that. Head over to WorkPlayBranding.com To learn exactly how you can launch your visual marketing strategy and cohesive brand for less than $500 a month.

Hi, I'm Tiffany Grimes the founder of Burgeon Design and Editorial. I'm a book coach and editor and I work with both fiction and nonfiction authors from idea to publication to help demystify publishing and empower you to create a writing process that's just as human as you are. It takes a village to write a book. Seeking feedback from trusted peers, writing groups and mentors is essential to developing your tone of voice as a writer. Their perspectives can provide valuable insights into how your writing is being perceived by others. Take note of recurring feedback and identify patterns to gain a deeper understanding of your strengths and areas for improvement. This feedback can help you refine your writing style, ensuring that your tone of voice align with your intention. Embrace constructive criticism as an opportunity for growth and consider different perspectives to expand your creative horizon. Author mentorship is a blend of editing and book coaching for fiction memoir and select nonfiction writers. This is a unique for you, three month program where we'll tackle your specific needs to ensure you're getting the support you need to reach your goals anywhere from idea to submission. This might look like finishing your draft completing revisions or planning to submit to literary agents or publishers head to burgeondesignandeditorial.com.

Hello, I'm Natasha, a video marketing coach for entrepreneurs and the host of The Shine Online Podcast. My goal is to help you simplify your video strategy with low lift content, which I'll be sharing a tip on in today's episode. If you have only an hour to spend on your Instagram strategy this week, here's three intentional ways you can spend your time that don't include mindlessly scrolling. The first is to clean up your profile. This means updating your highlights with your best stories content, adding in a strategic call to action in the last line of your bio for your link in bio, and to pin your top three posts from the past few weeks. And you can pin these to the top of your feed, or to the top of your reels tab. The next thing you want to do is connect with your community.

Maybe this means creating a reel reply from a comment on your latest video. Maybe it's sending a few voice messages via DMS or catching up on any messages or comments you may have missed. One of my favorite ways to do this is by hosting a q&a on a specific topic over on my stories. And the last thing is to start batching content, specifically video clips, I recommend focusing on B roll or what I like to call stock content footage that you can use in future video content. This can be stories, reels, or really any type of short form video content. It's multi use and not reliant on trends, which means the time you're spending batching these clips can be behind the scenes that you're already doing in your business, or even some random things that might already be on your camera roll. So with an hour you could batch up to an entire month of stock content footage to use across your Instagram and on other platforms. If you need help sourcing your own stock content I highly recommend joining my five day video competence challenge, you can start the free challenge and source your own stock content at video confidence. challenge.com or the details are linked in the show notes.

I'm Tiffany Napper, five time entrepreneur, perpetual overachiever, and now holistic business coach for creatives and founder of the Upleveler Society, I'm all about helping you find more money and more joy in this journey as a small business owner. Running your own business requires you to be a bold leader, but many of us step into this position without a lot of leadership experience. So here are three things to remember as you step into your confident leader era. Number one, stop apologizing. If you notice yourself apologizing the moment you open your mouth, try this on for size. Before you deliver your next presentation or host your next meeting. Start by saying "Welcome. I'm eager to dive in today. So let's get started." It might feel a little cheesy at first, but just try it on for size. When you know exactly what you're going to say. You're less likely to start with an apology. Number two, dream bigger. Where do you want to be in two years now double it. Get comfortable with that vision being your new normal. And number three, stop putting others before yourself. I know it sounds harsh, but I cannot tell you how many women I've coached who are subconsciously putting others feelings or desires above their own because they want to quote unquote, keep the peace or quote unquote be nice. Everyone wins but you in that scenario. Okay, I hope those three tips help you move forward into your confident leader era. Want more guidance on how to grow your business with ease and joy?
