My big block with my business is marketing. I have had a website up for approximately 18 months and social media accounts for longer, but they haven’t been working for me. I wanted help with becoming more visible in the online space. Additionally, I needed some support with an easier and less time-consuming accounting system.
The marketing mentor worked through the issues with my Google business account and talked me through Meta Business Suite whilst we were in our sessions.
The accounting mentor walked me through some easy to navigate templates and ideas to help manage my finances better. Having separate accounts for different things and budgeting better. She offered a wonderful easy to use template.
The business is now more visible online. I have had some clients find me through a google search! I have increased my social media presence with more regular posts through the ease of Meta Business Suite, now all my posts with appear on both Instagram and Facebook without the need to post separately. I can see clearer now regarding finances because I have applied the simple budgeting tips.
“The small fee is exceptionally worth it. The Digital Solutions program has helped me gain knowledge regarding the new digital era from mentors who are working amongst it and have tried and tested solutions. Knowing how to spend our time and energy on the things that matter is so important in our fast-paced world.

Cate recently attended an online workshop to find out all about the Digital Trends that will be impacting small businesses this year.
Cate’s key takeaways from the program are that the solutions are often not complicated but having someone who specialises in those key areas has been vital in saving me time trying to figure out the issues myself. Also working with someone who has been there before, knows your struggles and can relate to the challenges is helpful in not feeling alone. Asking for assistance is important and can save lots of time and potentially money in the long run.
