Fluent University

Have you ever invested in an online course, and….

A. Never even finished it
B. Got to the end and felt like nothing stuck
C. Felt like you didn’t commit yourself to the learning like you should have

It happens, and with so much going on in our lives, it can be super hard to get the most out of our investments online 🌟

We tried to make each of our Fluent courses super fun and engaging - so it doesn’t even feel like you’re ‘learning’ in a traditional sense

BUT we know that even with learning that doesn’t feel like learning, there can be struggles along the way.

So, here’s our quick little guide on how to get the most out of your online investments (whether these be courses, masterclasses, coaching etc.) 🤍

If you’ve got any tips yourself leave them down below in the comments too!

AND if you’re ready to jump in and invest (now that you know how to get the most out of your learning!!) head to the link in our bio. We have all of our signature courses available to purchase PLUS options to bundle and save if that tickles your fancy 🔥💸😍

Running a business - while for the most part is focused on client work, there can be a bit of back-end admin that builds up on the side (especially as the clients come rolling in) 🔥

Here are a couple of systems and processes we recommend setting up as you start to gain some traction to keep things running smoothly and your stress levels down! 📉

These processes are likely to look different for each business and that’s ok! There’s no right or wrong when it comes to the way you want to run your business.

Feel it out, try new things and tweak your systems and processes as you go to make them work for you 🤍

P.S our signature course Pin & Thrive was designed to not only teach you the skills of Pinterest Management, but it’s also jam-packed with a ton of ‘running your business’ resources and tips to set up the back-end side of things.

If you’re looking for somewhere to start, that could be a good place. Link in our bio to find out more x

2023 is going to be your best year yet. We can feel it…

But why wait for the new year to get started on what you KNOW you want from your life? ✨

There’s still a whole month left of 2022, and while of course it’s bound to be filed with holiday celebrations (and probably a lot of food let’s be real…) it can actually be a really good time to start working towards those goals you have and the person you want to be in 2023 😉

Maybe that looks like starting to think about and plan out the things you want to do or change next year.

Maybe it looks like investing in learning some new skills or education that will help get you closer to the things you want to create.

Or maybe it looks like just starting the thing…because why wait?

And if starting your own business is on the horizon for 2023, we have our 3 signature courses here and ready for you to start now (because again - why wait right?)

P.S Black Friday may be over but these are still available to purchase as bundles if you want to save some $$$ and get the most out of our offerings!

Some 🔥🔥🔥 reviews on the Fluent courses from some of our past students

With each course, we’ve tried to take the key information, resources and tips we WISH we had’ve known when we were first starting out (because we all start somewhere right?) and put it all together in one easy to follow & fun to do course.

Learning a new skill doesn’t have to be boring and taking your career and freedom into your own hands doesn’t have to be hard! ❤️‍🔥

How are you feeling in your business right now?

Running a business and working for yourself can bring with it waves of “hell yes this is amazing - I LOVE what I do,” mixed with “what am I doing???? I can’t do this.”

And it’s so normal for your confidence and motivation to come and go 🙃

But if you’re in a bit of a confidence slump right now - questioning whether you’re ‘good enough’

Here are a couple of things you can try to boost that confidence 📈📈📈

Because you ARE good enough, you CAN do it, and you’re so worthy of building the successful, fulfilling biz of your dreams ✨

But how do you know when you’re aaaaactually ready to dive in the deep end and do it?

Some 🔥🔥🔥 reviews from our Fluent University students lately

We may not have any courses open at the moment, but there are a ton of exciting things coming your way towards the end of the year

If you’re one of our Fluent students we want to hear from you! Leave your thoughts below 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼

Feeling a little stuck in your biz at the moment?

Well don’t worry - you’re not alone 😅

Ok - one of the BIGGEST things we hear from people who are ready to start their own online business but haven’t yet done it is…

✨ I want to but I’m scared I’ll be judged ✨

Now stop right there for a minute ✋🏼

Here’s the thing. You can’t control the judgements, the thoughts, the emotions of the people around you.

All you can control is you.

So often when people are ‘judging’ you for doing something that YOU know is right for yourself, they’re actually just projecting their own insecurities onto the situation.

And over time - the more you focus on what YOU want, what YOU know is right for you and what you KNOW you’re capable of, the judgement won’t hit so close to home.

In fact, when you’re out there running a successful online business bringing in those big cash months ($$$$ 😍) I bet you won’t be thinking about the judgement at all.

So ditch the people in your life who will judge you for going after what you want, and surround yourself with those who are happy to support you and build you up - they’re all you need anyway.

And go out there and start 👏🏼 the 👏🏼 damn 👏🏼 thing 👏🏼.

You’re ready

The 3 things you should have on your business Instagram to boost your chances of finding (& securing) those clients!! ❤️‍🔥

It’s important to remember - you want to make your offers, your experience/results and your unique approach as clear as possible to your potential clients so they can decide if you’re the right fit for each other.

Keep things simple, straightforward and to-the-point, but don’t be afraid to add a bit of personality in there (we all love a bit of spice right?!)

Do you have these 3 things set up? 👇🏼

A reminder that those ideas in your head ARE good enough, and you DO have what it takes to bring them to life ❤️‍🔥

So often we get caught up with all the possibilities. All the could do’s. All the want to do’s.

But that fear can creep in so easily - the self doubt an the “but do I really have what it takes?”

But action is the key to everything.

If you want to do something - do it.

If you have an idea - bring it to life.

Don’t let fear hold you back from all you are capable of.

Start bringing those words, thoughts, ideas into reality. It’s crazy how much can happen when you do ✨

FLODESK FLUENCY is here and we couldn’t be more excited 🥳

We’ve been in the marketing game for a while, and through the experience we’ve had both in offering this as a service for clients, but also experimenting with our own Email Marketing, we’ve found that nothing beats the ease and aesthetics of Flodesk 🤩

Here is a little breakdown of exactly what Flodesk is and why it’s so great (in case you’ve been wondering)

And if you’re interested in learning more, we go through everything from the backend of the software, to the set up, to mastering email marketing and working with clients in Flodesk Fluency.

The link is in our bio to sign up - doors close tonight! 💓

In honor of Flodesk Fluency launching, we wanted to give you 3 of our TOP TIPS for email marketing (whether for yourself or a client) ❤️‍🔥

1. Keep the back-end of your email marketing organized: There’s nothing worse than having your lists, segments and tags all scattered and not being able to keep track of your subscribers or target specific sections of your audience.

2. Make your emails something people actually WANT to read: You know what it’s like - we all get tonssss of emails every single day, and there’s a definite distinction between the ones you want to open and the ones you just can’t be bothered with. Keep your subject lines & hooks exciting, and use the design tools (there are heaps in Flodesk for you to make use of) to make reading the email a high vibe experience for your audience.

3. Stay consistent: Nurture your audience and make sure you’re always offering value and building trust through the emails you’re sending (rather than just straight selling!)

A quick TIP 🔥🔥🔥

For those of you who are just starting out, or perhaps have been in the game for a while, we’re sure you’re more than aware of the power Instagram has as a Marketing tool.

It’s our go-to for reaching clients, promoting services, building community and scaling your business 🌟

But one the BIGGEST things to remember as you build your audience on Instagram and put yourself infront of potential clients…

Is that you’re creating content FOR your ideal client!!!

- You’re not creating content for you

- You’re not (in many cases) creating content for your peers in your industry

- You’re creating content for the people you want to work with (and who you hope will want to work with you!)

So tap into those pain points, into the emotions their feeling, the things they need help with, and create content that makes them feel like you’re talking directly TO them.

That’s where the full potential of building a business on IG is at 😍

So you want to start an online business where you can work & make $$$ for yourself 😍✋🏼😏

You KNOW you can do it. You KNOW it’s possible and you’re SO excited to get started.

There’s just one issue…

You need to tell your parents that this is what you’re going to pursue 😅

Approaching this, for many people, will be stressful and super anxiety-inducing. It may also be super hard to predict how your parents will actually respond.

Here are a couple of tips to make the conversation a little easier and make sure you’re prepared for a mature chat 🤍

Who else is out here ready to make an amazing life for themselves? ✋🏼

🌟 No more settling for a sh*tty job just because it’s what we thinking we ‘should be’ doing

🌟 No more running out of time to actually LIVE our lives

🌟 No more sacrificing what we actually want for playing it safe

There are endless possibilities and opportunities in this world if only we’re brave enough and willing to actually go after them 🤍
