I have been meanjng to do this FOREVER! I want to revive this account again and share what's happening for me and in my businesses. Because it can be hard to nail down exactly what I do. So here's a little recap in how I got to where I am and what I do.

It was amazing actually to go through all the pictures and see how much I've done. Like, I am SO PROUD of myself for doing all these things.

And I actually love sharing stuff about myself so if you have any questions for me drop them below and I'll answer 😘

Now you know.

🛹BUSINESSES I WANNA BUILD: SKATEPARK EDITION🛹

Guys, my husband won't let me start anymore businesses and I have a creative itch! Enter The Drop-in - an over 30s skatepark built in an abandoned padel space. We're going to need a way to fill all these properties when padel dies off. Why not skateboarding?

Coffee bar, sandwiches, cocktails. Its all in there. And kids skating Little Shredders club. It's where we wanted to hang out as teens. Just now we have money and taste.

What's the next one going to be? Send ideas.

Over 30s skatepark. Yay or nay?

like, sometimes it doesn't go according to plan, and that's ok.
I had so much planned for this week and had to put it all on the backburner. The reality is that I was sick, and I come first. (Look at me go)

We've got some exciting new freebies and a new product coming for .biz.school next week which I can't wait to launch!!

Ok, love you byeeeee x

I've got some (more) big news. I've launched a new service at Food Biz School.

I know that so many food business owners want to be more present on social media but are overwhelmed by what to say and what to do.

So I wanted to take the overwhelm out of it.

Going live from 1 December, Coffee Toast Post is a daily email with a food industry social media topic prompt, caption ideas and image and video.

Price: R100 per month

The goal is to help business owners reach more customers and be present without adding another thing to the to-do list

1. They offer too much

You don't need to have 100 options to make lots of sales. You just need to stand behind what you do.

Offering loads of options, 20 different styles and huge menus does the opposite of what you think.

You think you’re being helpful to your customers. You’re actually overwhelming them.

2. They do too much

Because you started your business yourself you think you have to do everything: Cooking, Sales, Cleaning, Ordering, Strategizing

You don’t. Handling ALL of those decisions leaves no room for thinking about your business. You’re exhausted from trying to cram it all in. You need systems to support and delegate your smaller decisions. This will free up brain capacity for the larger ones.

3. They don’t know how much gross profit each item makes

Gross profit keeps the cogs of the business turning. You need to know that each item is making enough to support the business so that you can pay yourself, keep going and grow. If you don’t know what that number is you will probably undercharge and run out of money.

4. They don’t have a strategy for growing

“I will get more people to buy” is NOT a growth strategy.

If you want to reach more customers, add products and increase sales you have to first understand who you’re selling to, and what your business can maintain. You also have to be prepared to say no to anything that isn’t aligned. That is where most food entrepreneurs crash.

Here's what a system is: a simple way of doing things so you don't have to overthink and you can get on with building your business.

What a system is NOT: over-complicated

Every food business needs systems before it can grow. If you're not sure where to start sign up to get The Food Biz playbook when it is released next week.

If you've never put yourself first starting to do so can trigger a bunch of doubt.

It shows up like

- Maybe I should offer a discount?
- I should take on that last-minute booking, even though I don't have time
- I feel bad saying no

And it is totally normal.

As you grow you will feel guilty. Your old patterns will resurface.

Know this:

People will be disappointed if they have been getting a lot out of you for a long time. People don't want you to change because it worked for them. They don't want to grow.

But you are allowed to love yourself for making a decision that works for you.

You can love yourself for thinking bigger.

You're allowed to want more.
