I haven’t always been a podcast junkie. In fact, my Dad is the only reason I ever even found out that podcasts existed. As a teenager, I remember the endless hours he would listen to his favorite shows and swore I would never been as geeky as him. Fast forward to owning an online business, and it quickly became apparent that podcasts were a great alternative way to learn.

As much as I loved writing for our blog, reading other blogs just never really seemed to fit into my schedule. But listening to a podcast could happen in the car, while putting on makeup, doing the dishes, or cleaning the house. Basically, it made all the boring parts of my life way more interesting.

One of the things I hear a lot as a Canva Designer is that people feel stuck on ideas for their graphics, and want to know how to create great looking graphics faster.

Well, the last thing I want you to do is reinvent the wheel every single time you sit down to create your graphics.

So, if you’re feeling creatively stuck with your visuals, then today’s training is perfect for you. I want to show you how to approach one visual and use that “style” to batch the rest of your graphics so you can save time and feel great about your visuals.
 

Looking back on our investments over time, we actually purchased Leadpages long before we even started paying for an email service provider. For some that may seem goofy, but for us it was strategic. With the power of Leadpages we have been able to grow our list by thousands and it didn’t take any technical knowledge to make it happen.

Before I jump into how to set up my favorite aspect of Leadpages, let me first tell you about the different options available to you right out of the box.

Goodness gracious, I have an easy one for you today girl (I’m resisting every inclination I have to say “that’s what she said” right now).

We’re all running a rat race when it comes to online business, or it feels that way, anyway, #amIright? Something that I find SO overwhelming is direct messages on various social media platforms.

You’re getting hit with a PM on Facebook and a DM on Instagram and all the other kinds of “M”s on other platforms and you just don’t know what to do about it.

Well, I’m about to make your life about 42% better (statistic pulled completely out of my head).

It’s no secret that wholesale has my heart. While there is a LOT of work involved, one of the many reasons I love wholesale is that it has the ability to substantially grow your business! 

That said, how do you go from dreaming of big sales to seeing your product on the shelves of your favorite store when a Google search is enough to make your head spin?! Well, m’dear, it’s time to get excited because I’m giving you a step by step guide to setting your wholesale biz up for success! 

Calling all health nuts, fitness enthusiasts, whole-foods lovers, beach body badasses and any and all recipe creators!

Are you wondering if and how you can use Canva to create stunning recipes for your peeps?

The answer is YES, and I’m going to show you how.
 

So you spent your energy, a shiz load of time, and a whole lotta hope on creating a business with no borders. The idea was that you get to live the dream and work from home, on your own schedule, with just you as boss. You get to take coffee dates, sleep in, work late and have more flexibility than Simone Biles. You also know there’s some wiggle room for when you decide to bring a baby into the mix…..but how do you actually prepare for that?

When I was preparing our business for my own maternity leave people kept saying, “You can’t ever prepare for a baby.” Even though that’s true with regards to your little human, I wholeheartedly disagree when it comes to your business. You don’t have to go into your leave (whether it be for a baby, a sabbatical or time off for health) blind. In fact, you can go into it with a solid blueprint and business manual for how things will run while you’re away.

LeadPages, LeadPages, LeadPages.

Here’s the thing – as a WordPress user, I don’t personally use LeadPages. I choose to build sales pages/landing pages with Beaver Builder and/or Divi (for clients whose sites are built that way), BUT I used LeadPages for a long time and I loved it, just like most of the small business world.

So, what is it?

LeadPages is basically just a system to help you build landing pages and sales pages EASILY.

One of the key trainings in my Canva course is about setting up your computer and Canva account like a pro. 

As biz babes, automation and organization are key when creating graphics for our businesses.  And if graphics are something you use and create on a daily basis, it’s crucial that you implement these three easy steps to help you save time, be more organized and feel more confident with the time you spend in Canva.
