Yellow Tuxedo

This is the vibe we reckon we’ll be going for at our October Dining table mastermind if the current weather decides it’s sticking!

We have a couple of spaces available on the the 3rd October and we are totally fine with your bringing your slippers. We’ll provide the fire and hot drinks!!!

Our dining table masterminds strip away the need for fancy venues and four course Michelin star lunches to focus on what actually matters…getting sh*t done and focusing on getting eyes on your business!

Fancy joining us for the day? Visit the events page of our website to book your space today 👍

September is full but we do have space on our next Dining Table Mastermind on Thursday 3rd October.

Could one of those spaces be yours?

Join us for a day at our home in Hampshire along with 3 other business owners to harness the power of the hive mind and to get some sh*t done! It’s all about you, your business and getting yourself seen and heard out there.

There will be lots of opportunities to hot seat and chat through the challenges you face in your individual business and the chance to get to know some incredible peers who will be there to help raise you up.

The day includes your lunch and refreshments and even a chance to meet our chickens [ if that floats your boat 🤣]

Spaces are £150 pert person [ max 4 people per day] and booked on a first come first served basis through the events page on our website. So don’t miss out!

Can’t make this date? We’ve also released two further dates this Autumn. Check them out!

__________________________

We had an absolute blast chatting to Claus Later recently on his The Ecommerce Coffee Break Podcast

As part of a collaboration with the epic MailerLite , we chatted online ecosystems and how important email and automation is as part of that..

Well worth a listen as always, if you fancy making your online world work blimmin hard for you...

What Happens if You Automate Your Marketing? Watch This In this episode, we explore marketing automation and its impact on your online ecosystem. Emily and Alan Braithwaite share insights on enhancing marketing efficiency.

So with the doors shut until the new year for The Digital Circus Membership how else can you work with us this Autumn if you’re looking for some support with your online visibility? Here are 4 ways..

👉 Book a space on one of our Yellow Tuxedo dining table masterminds. We have 3 in person dates available between now and Christmas, 3rd October, 8th November and the 4th December. Our first two sold out incredibly quickly so if you would like a seat be sure to grab yours now. Spaces are £150 per person [ maximum 4 people per day] including lunch.

👉 Book a power hour. If you’ve got something niggling you that you just can’t seem to get done why don’t you book a call with us to work it out. Struggling with platform set up, a pesky automation that just won’t fire, understanding how to optimise your content? A power hour is the thing for you. Hours can be booked at £150 per hour.

👉 Book a 121 explorer day with us either online or in person at Yellow Tuxedo Towers in Hampshire. Perfect for you if you prefer 121 rather than group learning. Where we can really get under the skin of you and your business and what you’re trying to achieve online. £1000 per session [ including lunch and refreshments if in person]

👉 Do you have a specific content project in mind that you need support with? Chat to us about our done with you services. We have one more space for a content project between now and Christmas.

Interested in booking anything of the above? Give us a shout or visit the Yellow Tuxedo website to book in right away!

We thought we'd reassess it...

I got thinking about this on my morning run, and figured we'd share...

We launched the podcast about a year ago..

🎪 Digital Circus LIFE | The Small Business Podcast was LIVE... 💥

We hit 10,000 downloads pretty quick..

We moved it all to it's own YouTube channel..

Even though, quite a few episodes were already live on the Yellow Tuxedo channel..

Fast forward 45 episodes and we figured that was wrong..

it didn't quite grow as quick as we thought! 🤦‍♂️

And.

It wasn't fair on you. Asking you to follow us to a new channel.. 😢

So, now we're moving it all back to the Yellow Tuxedo channel..

Which is why you're seeing them all get republished and all the episodes that never arrived before..

Anyway...

We hope you enjoy them. There's some great chats to explore.. Let us know if you want a recommendation.. 🫡

Have fun always and see you on the socials...

Emily & Alan 💛

We promise we have done some work this summer.

“Thank you Alan, you little tech fairy you…”

That did make us chuckle when we listened to a message from a client this afternoon!

Truth is, we didn’t do all that much but we managed to help sort out an email authentication issue that had been causing her a headache for days on end and just couldn’t fix.

But it’s not your zone of genius it can be a real time sucker, even more so when you don’t know who or what to ask to get it resolved.

It was an absolute pleasure to help resolve this particular challenge. But we didn’t just fix it, we made sure that we broke it down and explained why and what we were doing to show the c***k in the system.

Because knowledge is power.

And things will break in the future.

And if we can help explain the how, what and the why, even just a little bit, it might make the next challenge slightly less of a headache!

Have you got a particular tech challenge driving you around the bend right now?? Let us know in the comments!

Ma and Pa Weller took the kids out today to so we could have our first child free day of the summer holidays. We got some uninterrupted work done and even hosted a client at the house this afternoon.

Icing on the cake was that we now have a house full of our favourite flowers!!

Two more weeks until normality resumes!

Events - Yellow Tuxedo

Last week we delivered three individual power hours on email marketing, specifically

In those sessions we covered:
- Woocommerce integrations
- Automations
- Pop up forms and embedded forms
- Subscriber back up
- Custom fields to ensure you are capturing the correct data

And that is just a few of things we were able to cover in a 1hr slot.

The great thing with our power hours is that it’s not just talking around the subject, we get into the nitty gritty and can get the work done alongside you there and then.

And that’s important to us. We’re really big on showing you the steps and explaining it in a way that makes the process a lot less scary and overwhelming.

As many of you know, Alan is our resident accredited Mailerlite specialist and it’s his absolute FAVOURITE platform to work with. So if you have an email marketing challenge right now why don’t you book yourself on for an hour with him?

Alan currently has some morning availability for Mailerllite specific power hours throughout August and September so just drop us a message and we can send you the link to book and pay for a slot that suits you!
