How To Build an In Person Community That Stands Out
Aug 29, 202400:14:17Tap to summarizeThis week, we’re wrapping up our mini-series on building community by getting tactical. If you've ever wondered how to create a real space for people to come together—whether online or in-person—this episode is for you. We’ll break down the key steps to building a community that not only supports your business but also provides the connection and growth you've been looking for. I’ll walk you through three foundational steps to help you kickstart your own community and simplify what can often feel like a daunting task. You don’t need all the answers or a huge platform to get started. If you can’t find the community you want to be a part of, why not be the one to create it? Let’s get into it! Key Points: How to identify a need in your audience that can bring people together for a common cause. Why sharing your unique message authentically is the key to attracting the right people into your community. The importance of collaborating and building trust within your network to add value and create a supportive environment. How to define the "vibes" and culture of your community to create a space people are excited to engage with. Why being a community leader doesn't require you to be perfect, but instead to be real and relatable. Special Offer: Have you heard about my new program, Cultivate Like a Boss?

Transcribe →From Overcomlicated to Simplicity: Business Strategies That Work
Jul 18, 202400:15:59Tap to summarizeIf I had to explain what I do in a few sentences, I would say: I help fellow female founders take the parts of business that feel big, hard, and complicated… and make them simple. But it hasn’t always been this way. Truth be told, I found simplicity in my business strategies out of necessity. It was either that or throw in the towel. There was a time (a long period of time) that everything felt big and overcomplicated. Writing an email, posting on social media, building a brand, managing my time, making sales… all the ideas I had in my head just piling up on one another started to make it feel impossible to move forward AT ALL. And I realized that if I wanted to keep doing this and make it worth the amount of time and energy I was dedicating to this, I had to do something differently! I had to change things up. I had to find another way. And so my simplifying era was born! I’m guessing some of you listening have felt this way. Maybe you even feel this way now. So today, I’m going to break down the top things I used to overcomplicate vs. what I do now! Tune in to hear how I've changed each of these commonly overcomplicated parts of business, and made them feel simple: Managing my time My visibility strategies Content creation My offer suite Selling Have you been overcomplicating some of these things, too? Let me know what you are (or used to) overcomplicate in the review section of Apple Podcasts or send me a message on IG @themegangillespie.
